that it is at last attracting some notice
from our city fathers.
The entertainment given by the La

A. R. P. Church last Tuesday evening
was a decided success. The receipts
from the supper amounted to $23, while
the proceeds from the .'•ale of tickets

The quilt was won by little Ollie Car-
mical, in competition with four other
candidates, and he desires to thank
publicly those friends who espoused
his candidacy so warmly and stood by
him so steadfastly. The Society will
please accept our thanks, also, for a
toothsome reminder of the occasion
in the shape of a nice luncheon, pre
sented by one of its most charming
members.

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 6, 1888.
Inquiries having been received at
this office in reference to the second
payment to disabled soldiers, under
the Act of October 24th, 1887, and no
date for said payments being fixed by
said Act, farther than that they shall
be made within twelve months from
the 24tli of October, 1S8S, and the pros-
S ect being that the clerical force of this
epartment will be fully occupied by
the heavy work incident to the meet
ing of the Legislature, and the large
number of commissions for county offi
cers, which must be prepared and sent
out in January, and it being possible
that the Legislature may increase the
amount of bounties under said Act, or
the number of beneficiaries under it, it
is therefore
Ordered, That blanks for applications
for bounty under said Act be prepared

Caught in the Act.
Albert Reese, a well-known colored
man of the community, was arrested
last Wednesday night for breaking
open C. E. Smith’s distillery warehouse,
and as he was caught in the act it is apt
to go pretty hard with him. Air. Smith
had been missing liquor from the bar
rels stored in his warehouse for two or
three weeks, and finally decided to keep
watch over the premises at night, until
the culprit was detected. On Wednes
day night Deputy Collector Moses
and the Messrs. Fincannon concealed
themselves near the warehouse and
quietly awaited developments. About
12 o’clock their patience and vigilance
were rewarded by seeing the figure of
a man approach stealthily from the di
rection of the branch, and they had not
long to wait before they saw him go up
to the warehouse, remove a plank from
the outer wall of the building and
crawl through the aperture. He
seemed to have no difficulty in effecting
an entrance and moved about in a way
that showed his thorough familiarity
with the premises. He struck a light
and was in the act of tapping a barrel
when the watchers closed in upon him.
They recognized him at once, and L
was the work of only a few minutes to
seize and secure him. When captured
it was found that he had a water buck
et and a ten-gallon keg, which he evi
dently intended to fill with liquor and
carry off with him.
The prisoner was brought to town and
lodged in jail, where he remained until
yesterday afternoon, when he was car
ried before U. S. Commissioner McClen
don for commitment. After hearing
the evidence in the case, the Commis
sioner bound him over in the sum of
$700 for his appearance at.the District
Court in Atlanta. This he had no dif
ficulty in giving, his two brothers be
coming his bondsmen, and he was re
leased from custody.
His offense is a serious one, and with
the evidence against him there is scarce
ly a possibility that he will escape con
viction.
The Spelling Bee.
The spelling bee at Reese’s Opera
House to-night, given under the aus
pices of the Ladies’ Parsonage Aid So
ciety, is occupying public attention just
now to the exclusion of all other sub
jects. A brilliant array of spellers have
entered the lists, and the contest prom
ises to be as spirited as it will be amus
ing.
The exercises will be divided into
two parts. The first will be a spell
ing match between two classes, com
posed of twenty-five spellers on each
side, who will be under the leadership
of Messrs. L. P. Barnes and A. R. Bur-
dett, respectively. The rules governing
this contest are simple and easily un
derstood. The two classes will spell
against each other, and a strict record
will be kept of errors made. At the
close of the contest the side making the
fewest number of errors will be declared
the victors.
In the second part all will spell
together, dropping out as fast as errors
are made and scored, until but one re
mains.
All modern authorities will be recog
nized in judging the correctness of the
various styles of orthography that will
probably be exhibited. Prof. Walker,
Prof. Ford and Prof. Pendergrast have
been selected as judges, the last of
whom will announce the words to be
spelled.
There will be two prizes—one for the
best speller, and a “booby” premium
for the poorest. The prizes will be de
livered by Hon. W. Y. Atkinson.
The rules will be explained fully and
satisfactorily by the managers before
the contest begins.
The exercises will begin promptly at 7
o’clock, with music by the Mechanics
Band orchestra. The match will be
formally opened half an hour later.
Following is a list of those who will
participate in the bee:

Mr. Parks Espouses the Third Party
Mr. Editor:-Several years ago I said,
publicly, that if ever an opportunity at-
forded I would express my disapproba
tion of the liquor traffic, from Presi
dent down to the most insignificant
office-holder, “so help me God. Per
haps no one except myself remembers
that I made such a declaration. Even
though I had never given utterance to
such a sentiment, the glaring evil of the
traffic and an enlightened conscience
would impel me to such a course.
From late statistics the following
facts have been developed, in relation
to the liquor traffic in this country:
There are in the Lmited States about
250,000 licensed and unlicensed places
where intoxicants are sold; of these,
150,000 are kept by Democrats and 100,-
000 by Republicans; 100,000 men, wom
en and children die drunkaros, annual
ly; 60.000 are chargeable to the Demo
crats, and 40,000 to the Republicans.
Can either of these be called a temper
ance party ? The sixth commandment
says, “Thou shalt not kill,” but the
two great political parties of to-daj T say
you may kill, and “we will license you
to kill.
In all moral reforms where two polit
ical parties are allied to or connected
with any evil the people desire to be
rid of, a third party is the only force
that can thoroughly accomplish the
work; because neither of the other par
ties will act in the matter until forced
to do so by public opinion.
Indeed, it is believed that if the mon
ey power exerted by the whisky ring in
this government was withheld, the peo
ple would rise in their might and sup
press the evil at once. Hence, the tem
perance people and prohibitionists
throughout the length and breadth of
this land are in favor of taking off the
revenue and repealing the license law.
The license law is a great curse to this
nation. The government has no more
right to license men to make drunkards
than it has to license men to break the
ten commandments.
Besides the thousands that die
drunkards annually in the United
States, there are 300.000 women and
children who are suffering disgrace and
poverty on account of drunkenness.
The man whose selfishness will not let
him look beyond the gratification of
his own desires and acquired appetite,
can very consistently say, “Local pro
hibition is good enough for me,” (while
he can send to Atlanta, Griffin, or Ban
ning for his liquor). But how is it with
the man, or perhaps widow, whose son
goes or sends to these places for this li
quid of hell-fire and distilled damnation
until he has acquired an appetite that
becomes stronger than his will, and
stronger than his paternal love, and
stronger t-han his self-respect?
It is quite evident even to the casual
observer that total and universal legal
prohibition is necessary to the proper
protection and preservation of society,
and maintenance of civil government.
Third Party Prohibitionists need offer
no apology for their existence. On the
contrary, they may fairly challenge the
old parties to justify their own contin
uance, and they may earnestly and
hopefully appeal to the intelligence,
the patriotism, and the sense of duty of
their adherents, that, laying aside all
frivolous excuses, they shall without
delay join in swelling the band of earn
est, self-sacrificing, and struggling pa
triots into a grand and victorious army.
YVe cannot narrow down this question
to a local question outside of politics.
The whisky ring has been in politics
ever since the revenue and license laws
went into effect. I, for one, cannot see
how a national political evil can be
remedied by a local, non-political poli
cy. We are often told, and I have un
til lately been of the same opinion,
that we must keep the temperance
question out of politics; that it is pure
ly a moral issue. That is, perhaps, true
so far as the individual aspect of the
question is concerned, but we have al
ready seen that the question has a pub
lic side to it, and as such it is a question
that does and has, and must in the fu
ture much more than in the past, enter
the domain of politics. In fact, it is
already in politics. There is no busi
ness under the sun to-day that is so
closely and compactly organized for po
litical pui^ioses as are the National and
State Liquor Associations of this coun
try. It is a monstrous monopoly, which
depends on legislation for its existence,
and to the shame of both Democratic
and Republicans parties they are led
captive at the will of the whisky ring.
Everyone knows and feels that some
thing ought to be done to banish and
blot out this outrageous traffic from our
land. In order to do this we must be
willing to sacrifice some of our old par
ty prejudices. YY r e need an aroused
Christian conscience that will proclaim
eternal condemnation of this vile and
hideous incubus that now curses every
department of our political, social and
educational progress. The great ques
tion for every voter to settle is, “Am I
personally responsible for the crime,
wretchedness and pauperism that flow
out from the rum traffic, if I vote for a
person or party who refuses to brand
the traffic as a crime against the coun
try?” If the ruin traffic- is dependent
on your vote (and it is only by votes
that the traffic is perpetuated) and you
have the right and opportunity to "ex
press your disapprobation of the curse,
does not God, your home, your coun
try and your conscience demand the
sacrifice of your old party prejudices,

Living: on the Reputation of Others.
“Take everything that I have but my

say all manufacturers of genuine artic

thrive upon the reputation of others.
The good name of Allcock’s Porous
Plasters has induced many adventur
ers to put in the market imitations that
are not only lacking in the best ele
ments of the genuine article, but are of
ten harmful in their effects.

Mr. A. B. Hill acquired a partnership
interest. I trust my friends and cus
tomers will appreciate the necessity
and importance of making immediate
settlement, in order that I may close
up the old books. J. R. Herring.
Advice to Mother*.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syuup should alwsya
be used when children ore cutting teeth. It re
lieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural,
quiet sleep, and the little cherub awakesas ‘ ‘bright
as a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It
soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain,
regulates the bowels, and is the best known reined y
for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or
other causes. Tweijty-llve cents a bottle.
