Mr. Raymond reveals that his brown paper bag does not hold alcohol..... only a bottle of cola. He allows people to think he's a drunk, so they don't bother him or question his actions. Dolphus is married to a black woman, and he thinks that by letting people think he's an alcoholic, he gives them a reason for what they see as odd behavior.
