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. IMPORTANT notice.
