PLEASE READ & CONSIDER.
To the Voters of Rockdale Countv :
,, Sets. 2 of the act of the General
Assembly approved Sepo. 25th 1883,
regulating the manufacture or sale of
intoxicating liquors, or intoxicating
, hiedicsled ' bitteis, in the county of
Rockdale, providing that iotoxicat
ing liqubrs or intoxicating medicated
hitters shall not be sold at but one
plate for medical purposes in 6aid
Rockdale county, and only by a reg¬
ular pharmaceutist or apoihecan,
who shall be elected by the grand
jury and commissioned by the ordi¬
nary for the term of two years ; and
shall before he sells the same, give
bohd and security, take an oath etc.
I have refered 10 the above act
regulating the whisky question in this
county because, since I have become
a <andidate I nave been misrepre¬
sented on the whiskey question in
this county, in this: that if elected
I would favor a change of the pres¬
ent law so as to bring whiskey back
in said connty, to be used as a bev¬
erage. This I most emphatically de¬
ny. And that ail may understand
mv position, I state that I am oppos¬
ed to the present law as it now stands
being changed in any manner or
form whatever, except I desire the
present law regulating the aale of in¬
toxicating liquors in this county so
amended as to allow regularly licens¬
ed practicing physicians to keep and
use intoxicating liquors or bitters as
and use other medicines
in .heir practice ; and in case any
such regular licensed physician
should give or.sell any intoxicating
liquors or intoxicating medicated
bitters only jn cases in his or th<-ir
practice, where it is absolutely net
cssary for the relief ot the sick, shall
on conviction thereof, be punished as
prescribed in section 4,310 of tl e
Code (which means 12 months in the
chain gang and fine at the discretion
of the court.) The issue that 13 try¬
ing to be raised in this county is a
false one, hepce I write this tha’ all
may /read and know for tLemselves.
I repeat that I am opposed to the
low being changed in any manner or
form whatever, so as to allow rntox
icating liquors manufactured or sold
in the county of Rockdale as a bev
ferage, and only desire the
law so changed as to allow regulaf
licensed practicing physicians to 16 >p
and use it in their practicing onder
the same pains and penalties as be-
foie staved, under section 4,310 of
the Code, and they to be commie
sioned by the ordinary and take
same oath as prescribed for thephar
maceuti3t in the act above refered to.
J. A. Stewart.i
(Advertisements.)
Mr. Editor :—In reply to the scur
rillous atteck made made by Pinch
toe abas pincli brain to Presto in the
WeiIu.y of Sept. 5tb. hatdly admits
of the simple considerative to place
it where available elements are de^
composed and taken up as food plant
and where the average man of the
hour would be n< ne the cleanlier by
handling it. Pinch-brain says Pres*
to knows nothing of Dr. Stewart’s
platform, ‘‘while to our certain know
ledge he, Presto, never had any con¬
versation with Dr. Stewart on the
points discussed.” The old adage :
There are none so blind as those who
can see and will not. Who is it that
is not advised as to Dr. Stewart’s
position on the iiqnor question ? To
some lie has announced that if elee
t;d to change the prohibition slatie
known as Peek’s bil —to place the
ellmg of spirit* in the hands of the
apotheear es. That, ol course, means
to s, 11 by prescription to any one in
such quantit, es as stomach or taste
might dictate. 'To others he has de¬
nounced prohibition as a fanatical
idea, claiming that whisky was a
necessary evil and if removed some
ihinsr worse would take its place.
What think you pinch-brain ;
which horn will you blow?
The Dr. has gotton np a windmill
and cannot cotrol the breeze, and
from the present outlook if he gets
to Atlanta he will have to draw on
his hank—his thousand. The Doc¬
tor should have taken a position long
ago p’o or con. There is no trouble
to locate George Gleaton, at home
or in the field, and if elected will
make his mark. Presto.
Mr. Editor: —We tvant to say to
the people of this county that our
present temperance laws do not pro^
hibit doctors from using whisky in
their practice; that nnv move to lay
aside or change that bill is a blow at
lemperancp, the fair name of our
county out institutions, our man¬
hood and the life and happiness of
our women and children. Let the
druggist say who is sick, and he will
sell by tbe drink pint, quart or gal¬
lon and defy conviction. Out’ sfock
law is all right } our whiskey-law is
all rtgfit; voters stand at their back
W.th your balb ts. A.

from the above ruleaS we mean what
we say. We don’t want to hurt any

ber money lias been Vmy scarce and
