Mr. Taft, however, would not go so
far as to say that Mr. Roosevelt dug
the rannmn canal with his own little
shovel.
That srould be too much' like child's
play. We do not believe that grown
men would be actuated by such mo
tives; so*we nrefer to think that the
majority of the committee thought
that the, issue should to fought out
by the candidates and that the* elec
tion of a local option or prohibition
candidate would Influence the result
in Georgia.
Hut when this question is compli
cated by personal politics It cannot
be said that the Issue Is satisfacto
rily settled. Personal following, geo
graphical location, rank partlsiauship,
all will influence and complicate the
issue aftd the state even after the
election of governor will be,no near
er the-solution of the question than
they were before. If tl^e people wen*
y • wed to vo*e on thj Issue In *i
clean-cut, open way, the election
would have gfeat Influence upon de
terminating the future course of the
state. If the Issuo of prohibition
were to prevail, - then It wouffl bo
only fair to say that the present law
Uld have to be strengthened and
lhero would he no cxcuso and no
chance for some cities to openly
flaunt and defy the taw In future.
If, on th<^ other hand, local option
triumphs, then wo should return to
the former stntua of letting each coun
ty In Georgia determine for itself tho
rules for regulating the manufacture
nnd sale of liquor. Nothing could be
plainer nnd nothing more sensible.
It w-ould be proper to submit these
questons to n primary election m
order that It m£y be settled by the
white ( voters of tho state. It is true
that nothing is settled which is not
settled right and any solution of the
liquor question which is not backed
up by a vote of the people at the polls
wUl fall short of being decisive nnd
permanent. This was the method
ndopted In Alabama and Texas and
Maine. The people of Georgia have
novor voted upon this question and
It is high time tho issue be put be
fore them.
It is also true that.tho members
from the sninller counties on the ex
ecutive committee voted against this
question because they feared tho big
cities would roll up heavy majorities
for local option. They wnnted to
thrust tho county unit plan between
the people and the Issue. Tho com
mittee adopted the rrunty unit plan
in nominating a governor and it did
not seem to be willing to submt this
prohibition question straight to tho
people. Rut some day It will have
to be done and tho sooner wo come
to It the better. You can't block ull
tho people all tho time. Tho majori
ty pole In the end must avail and in
this Instance It looks as If the popu
lar vote ought to prevail. Some day-
the Issuo Is going to be settled that
voy, and why not now? The people
have a way of registering their will
aud of arriving at the result and first
last this Issue must be pronounced
Independent steel concerns In tho upon by the people themsclv
south have formed a $30,000,000 com- — ■ ■ ^
bine to fight the trust. We will
leave It to Wlckersham If that Isn't
an unreasonable trust
