ATUNTA JEWS LETTER.
Atittj.ffl, Ga., July 2,~ Aflafita Jf> be¬
ginning to wake op to ihe fact that
Macon is iu earnest in tier fight for
tlie oepitol and a real contest is pre¬
dicted Itefore the legislative committees
when the matter comes up for consid¬
eration. Mass meetings of Atlanta
citizens have i>erfected an organiza
lion to fight any removal propaganda
from the Bibb delegation. Atlanta
points out that, the proceeds from the
sale of the present state property here
could not by law l»e used for building
purposes; also that the million dollar
bond issue proi>osed by tile central
Georgia city would not be one fourth
enough to erect a statehouse. These
with the argument that from the
standpoint of railroad facilities and
housing accommodations, Atlanta is
entitled to lie the capitol of the state,
having been elected ns such by a vote
of the people, are expected by busi¬
ness men here to kill tine bill in the
legislature. It is argued that, a cam¬
paign before the people would engen¬
der bitterness which years «>f tranquil
relations would tie required to heal.
Representative Jadksou, <>f .Tones,
declares that he will nof permit the.
suffragists to postpone action at the
present general assembly on the An¬
thony amendment and that he will
force it to a vote because be wants
to see it killed and klled by a decisive
vote. . i TAB "WW
Tlie fight for an “oi>en Sunday" in
Atlanta has taken on a different com¬
plexion since Bishop Candler’s recent
card denouncing the “straw vote”
movement as an “attempt by the R<
crcactirai committee of the Chamber
or Commerce to set aside the Ten
-•<-reaction otaoinTo shforccccccc ccccc
Commandments and to abrogate the
statute* of Georgia.” It is freely pre¬
dicted that the shows will not he al¬
lowed to often. Baseball continues at
(lie army camps on Sunday, but this
is on government property and beyond
tlie city and state's .jurisdiction.
Atlanta received 1 .3.000.000 two cent
stamps and 2.000,000 ope-ccnt postal
cards with which to inaugurate t’*e
new postal rates last Tuesday. Post¬
master .Tones sold 250.000 of the new

United StAtes Marshal J. Howard
Thompson says that illicit distilling
in Georgia has reached enormous pro
jx>rfions. He declares that whereas
formerly moonshining was conlined to
the nioluitgiii sections «f the state,
now practically every county is honey
ComhEHl with stills. Mr. Thompson de
dares that the war time prohibition
will stop the smuggling of rye whiskey
into Georgia, as it will cut off the
sources of supply, hut that he is afraid
that it will increase the manufacture
in Georgia. Under the old regime,
the specific charges against making
whiskey was the failure to pay revenue
tax. Now it is the actual manufac¬
ture itself.
Tlie field Hospital Unit Number HI,
the last a 11 -Georgia army outfit to
reach the United States, arrived at
Camp Gordon Monday night and has
neon mustered out, the members refurn

continuous service. The hoys were or¬
ganised so quietly and swiftly that

the press. In fact, they have tajen re¬
