It doesn’t hurt the tiger any and it’s awfully risky for you. Consumption is a tiger among diseases. It is sfealthy —but once started it rapidly eats up the flesh and destroys the life.

Of course Chatham county, as well as the most of the counties of the state, office-holders and all, will stick to Col, Estill. There Corner Main and Washington Streets Quitman, Ga., Editor Cracker : Is it possible to elect any man on Mr. Guerry’s platform? Is it not a fact that the tremendous in fluence, financial and otherwise of the organized Liquor Associations all over the United States would be used to defeat such an election. Georgia, or any other State, is of too much value to that interest to permit such a theory to occur. This is deplorable, of course, yet it is a fact, and what are you going to do about it? Throw away your votes? The church people, not all, and the prohibi tion people have for years been wasting their influence,* their votes and their lives in trying to accomplish the impossible. They call it. a “Compromise of Princi ple” to try to do anything else, but that which they think is the thing to be done. If they can’t have cake they wont eat at all. Is this wise? Is it religious? Why not say “if we can’t feed all the poor we won’t feed any.” Col. J. H. Estill, Georgia’s Next Governor. If a dispensary hill, snch as was vetoed a few months ago, bad been passed ten years ago, the liquor traffic* would by this time have been under such perfect control as to make it non-offensive to the entire people of the state. The defeat of the dispensary bill, which was the result of the com bined efforts of the Liquor Asso ciations and the Prohibitionists was the greatest triumph for the former and the most stupendous blunder of the latter known to recent legislation. It was one of those rare occasions wnen ex tremes meet. Under the dispen sary laws in South Carolina, drunkenness has been diminished 90 per cent. There is not a man in the State, well informed on politics, who be lieves it possible to elect Mr. Guerry. The race is reduced to the other two candidates. The question that is up to the prohibi- tionists and church people, is will you stick to an impossibility, or will you help to make it possible to elect a man who comes pretty near to your viewB. With your help, the influence of those violently opposed to Mr. Guerry can he nullified, adherance to the impossible means, aid where you do not intend it. It is generally understood, audit might as well ho expressed, that 'sup- 11111 lwll be few, if any of the lquor dealers, who will not support him, because they know of his every day walk and conversation, and they know that he is consis tent. With the Savannah liquor dealers, most of them, local pride, love of city will influence, as they well understand that the great need ot the state now is, a busi ness man for governor, and that their efforts lie with the legisla ture rather than the executive. They feel that the time has come when Savannah and South Geor gia should be recognized as a part of Georgia, and it is now or never. If these conclusions be correct, and who thinks differently, the contest is narrowed down to the liquor dealers (outside of Savan* nan) and most (not all) of the politicians and office holders on one side and the balance- of the people on the other. The “ma chinery of politics” is all in the hands ot the office-holders, and the notable exceptions are not isufficiently numerous in compar ison to the whole to run the ma chine m the interest of the minor ity. That minority, however, when added to the balance of the people will make a great and mighty force. This “balance”—What do they stand for? A recognition of the right of a section of the state (Wiregrass) whose citizens have always been true to every demand of good citizenship, but in the dis tribution of offices have had but small share. Northern and Middle Georgia are saying “let’s tote fair. Their time to furnsih the Governor has come,* and if they put up a good man we will support him in spite of the office* holders and liquor dealers. They have stood by us when we needed them, and turn about is fair play.” * * Now what sort of man do you need for' Governor? Will any man who wants it do? Can South Georgia^ theWiregrass region, pro duce a man that will fill the hill? Is it a politician that you need in this emergenay of your affairs? Do you {need a lawyer, one well versed in tne«intricacies of the law, who will assist the attorney general to decide ’■questions of law? Or do you need a man of affairs, of rare executive ability, used to handle large! business, of financiering large enterprises, who is in touch with the great affairs of today? Does Georgia need knowledge of law or business ex perience? If the former, why pay a salary to the best legal talent in the State as attorney general? This question has got to he a terribly practical one. It is a matter generally known that a lawyer who knows anything but law is hard to find. The best law yers in'Georgia acknowledge that they are not business men, .then why in this crisis of her affairs shall we not elect as Governor a successful business man for the . a Wiregrass region of the State. Has any one said a word against the ability or fitness of Col. Estill for this high office? To the con trary, even the adherents of the other candidates say “he would make an ideal Governor”—but— what? “We want to try the im possible again.” “Our man hak been growing for years and he has matters in better fix than ever be fore.” Has not he been holding office long enough? Has not his section of the State monopolize^ all that was best in the gift of the people?
