Many Near Beer Drinks.
According to the Constitution there
was a great “near beer” record in the
police court in Atlanta Monday.
Fortp-four straight, plain drunks
were on the docket, and thirty-six of
these, according to the sworn evi
dence of the victims, were the result
of near beer.
It looked like old ante-prohibition
times at Jedge Briles' matinee. The
court room was crowded with spec
tators, the chairs were all occupied
by policemen and. witnesses, and
there were 110 prisoners waiting to
be tried.
It was the forty-four plain drunks,
with thirty-six of them charged to
near beer, that broke the record.
Not since the first day of last Janu
ary, when the prohibition law went
into effect, had there been such a
court docket.
As prisoner after prisoner stepped
up to answer for a plain “drunk and
out,” the recorder asked the question
that he lias been propounding for six
months:
“Where did you get your liquor?”
The answer almost Invariably was:
“Never had any liquor."
“Well, what made you drunk?”
the recorder would ask.
“All I drank,” would be the reply,
“Was near beer.”
“It is very evident,” said Record
er Broyles, after court ’adjourned,
“that from what takes place in my
court, some of this near hear stuff is
causing drunkenness. It may be
that some of the saloon men are
spiking it. I have wondered what
person could believe for a moment
that near beer is not intoxicating
when so many hundreds of men and
women, including the old bums and
rounders, flock to the saloons and
drink every drop of near beer they
can get hold of. That class of people
do not drink soft drinks just to wet
their throats. But what can the po
lice authorities do? The court of ap
peals has declared that near beer is
not intoxicating, and so tiiere is no
legal way to stop its sale, and the
poople wlio drink say they do get
drunk on it."
