Under the atove heeding the New York rfun of Nov. *7, tay* Apparently as much to their own surprise as to the astonishment ol everybody else, the prohibitionists have carried the city of Atlanta on a distinct issue with the license men, and after one of the bitterest and most sensational local contests on record. The Importance oLthis event to ihe eanmsl and persistent friends of prohibition all over the country can hardly be overestimated. Georgia is a local option state, and county by county the prohibitionists have made their way across it, conquering A they went. . They hsd already captured more than one lyindred of the one hundred and thirty.eight counties. Atlanta web* almost the last stronghold of the so-called rum power;-but that city, the busiest, noisiest, most prosperous and pro- gressive towns, of the South,seemed about as unlikely ' as New York er Baltimore, to vote out of existence one of its most 1 powerful and profit able interests. Yet the prohibition ists won Atlanta, on Wednesday, by ^majority of between two and three hundred. Everywhere the persistent and patient workers who are engineer ing the political side of the prohibi tion movement will be encouraged beyond measure by the Atlanta victory. Under the circumstances, it means more than the capture of a whole state like New Hampshire, foil example. foS it shows that the big andlively towns are not impreg nable, even under local option. The republican leaders are aow more worried by the amazing growth of the prohibitiohlst cause than by any other woe that Heaven has sent them. — ATCHMAN Wednesday the people of Athens were divided on a question thought by all to be of great importance to all parties. The friend* of each ticket felt that they bad personal interest* at stake; apd in, proportion to tbi* feeling of personal respons! bility, they worked to secure the »Mrr !is ihejf favorite, candidates. This was.right and manly. The method* used by the candidates and their friends were such as are con' sidered entirely legitimate. W b *a the work had been done the Citi zens’ Ticket was declared elected. The result was a surprise to Mr. Wood and his friends, but only what was expected by Mr. Reaves’ friend*. Now, whatever may be the disappointment or the exulta tion 0f parties, Igf *11 forget the ani mosities of the hour and VI gether for the good of our beautiful city. Th* New York Mail and Ex press suggests that; in view o* the great (htfiga of fire, southern cities ought prohibit the erection of wooden building* within city Km its The nqitt bey.of wooden build ings in southern cities is undoubt edly too large for safety, and„ espe cially of old house* that need but spark to; set them to burning. If only metal roofiog of some kind were used the danger from fire frottifrbp, greatly decreased. And In Mew^of the cheapness of met* roofing, and-the great variety, in- cluding^laUi.tin in various shapes, iron, copper, glass, etc, the ex pense of putting on metal roofing would be very small—Enquirer- sun.
