' MR. CRISP'S NEW BILL.
{ Hon. Chas. R. Crisp, Congressman
i from Americus, has inircduced a bill
{in congress which prohibits the Inier
i nal! Revenue Department from issuing
i federal receipts for the sale or manu
facture of aleoholic liguors in any ter
i ritory in the United States, where the
i sale is prohibited by law.
| This is a bill aimed straight in the
right direction and will sirike the
vital point of contention between Unp
' cle Sam and the prohibitionists. It
- will take Uncle Samuel out of the li
quor business. It wiil partially break
‘up the alleged parinership between
. the government and the liquor trade.
It-is not a partenersnip. to be sure,
bat it is inconsistent for the preambie
' to the Federal Constitution to. talk
Eabout promoting the welfare of the
1 peopic and af the same time the gov
;emment to permit, so far as it is con
| cerned, for §25, the sale of liguor in
i dry territory. Judge Crisp’s bill is a
| strong and safe one, and will doubt
| jess become a law, when it reaches the |
:voter. ‘
{ Mir. Crisp is opposed for the next
’congress by Xir. Hudson. Considering%
| that prohibition and law eniorcement§
lare two o fithe dominant issues nOW |
shifting back and forth from siate to!
!congrcr:s and from congress to state,g
it is highly important that law-makers, |
both state and national, be men whosei
records in the past or whose sacrifice§
in the present, make them safe on!
these questions. ‘
. Mr. Hudson was a member of theg
state senate in 1897. The ‘records |
show that in the senate he voted|
agzinst the prohibition bill, then pend- |
ing; that Mr. Hudson voted to estab-l
ilish dispensaries in local option dry%
}counties; that Mr. Hudsen voted tog
allow hotel keepers in 2 dry county o |
sell liguor to their guests, and he%
voted against Mr. Goldin’s bill making |
it unlawiul to pay money to secure‘
electiocn to office.
The public welfare and public good
are great and mighty terms; and it
is a serious matter to try to saddle or
any county or people the liquor-traf
fic which destroys both and inflicts
immeasurable harm.—Ceorgia Com
