It
; i
On Giving Poison.
There are various kinds of pois
ons and various ways of adminis
tering them. Some serve a useful
purpose. .
Otie class of poison there is,
however, which serves no useful
purpose.
No, we do not refer to ti e pois
on which is taken into the body.
It is the kind we think of when we
read that Scripture, “not what
enters into the mouth but what
proceedeth from the mouth defil
eth a man.”
The host who would so abuse
the scared trust of hospitaiity as
to poison his guest’s food is indeed
worthy of censure most serve and
punishment proprotionate.
But he who feeds poison to the
mind and so prolongs in degener
acy a life which would have profi
ted by bodily poison,—such an af
fender is a much worse offendrr.
And of this latter character are
the Atlanta daily newspapers.
If it were possible to trace many
criminal deeds to the impu'se
which set them in motion, tne trail
would end in the news office of
these Atlanta papers.
Organized movements have been
at work to suppress vice and crime
inthat great city. But until they
suppress the greatest encourge
ment to crime, in the shape of
their daily papers, their progress
will not be marked.
Such papers cannot excuse them
selves on the ground that the
people want such sensations and
filth for the mind. It can become
a crime to give the people what
they want.
These papers have given details
of events to the point of nauseat
ing even healthy minds, and one
has gone for below the plane of
deceny in the matter it publishes.
These Atlanta newspapers are
sowing the winds and are stirring
a whirlwind for their reaping.
We would be grateful indeed if
these Atlanta papers would con
fine their trying of conrt cases to
those in the Fulton county courts
and leave those in Henry county
for trial by our own juries.
