Lait Monday night one of the most remark
able prohibition meeting! of tha campaign oc
curred H the cenrthenae.
At half put atTOn o'cleok several hundred
members or the Yonng Men???s Frohibltion club
met at their headquarters and marched to the
courthouse, led by a brass band.
Mr. Henry Hiliyer, president, and Mr. A.
A. Deloach, secretary of the club, led the
procession, followed by Mr. W. J. Albert bear*
log a large banner of blue silk, on which wai
printed in golden letters the werde,
"Young Men???s Prohibition Club.??????
Jnit before the meeting wu called to order
Mr. Sam W. Small walked down an aisle to
the stand. His appearance was greeted with
a storm of cheers from the great crowd.
In a few appropriate remarks Major Wai.
lace introduced
emits HMSY JACKSON.
Captain Jackson began by saying that he
Wat very earnestly in lavorof the temporance
movement. The liquor interests, he said,
had not made Atlanta. He was against the
American standing bar. If the destruction of
barrooms
ncrios nr suoun
and Augusta let them go I (Applause.) When
all the barrooms get to those cities the peopio
down there will get np tome sumptuary laws
for their own benefit. Murder,larceny burglary,
are all batched in the barroom. They say it
la the man felting drunk and the drunken
men getting sober that
COSINIT HBKDKS.
They say shut up she Utile bars. They are
the children of the big bars. Society should
protect itself against the father of them all.
They sty it will hurt Atlanta. I kao v that
God reigns and if Ho does the destruction of
barrooms will never hurt Atlanta. The grass
will look greener, the girls prettier, the wives
happier and the husbands moro contented,
with this traffic awept from our midst. Tne
fame of this city will go to points where the
Kimball house and the cotton exposition
were never heard ol. [Applause.)
Captain Jackson said he would not take
twenty-five per cent increase for his property
the day after tbo prohibition law passes. But
the question is above money, and he would
vote for ft if it were to run a figure 2 through
all the property in Atlanta.
Captain Jackson said, among other things,
that hobadcreesodtbethrcLholuofa bar for
the last time; that hereafter when ho wanted
Whisky, he would send alter it.
He spoke of his oonnection with the Book
case in Rabun county, saying there had been
TWIKTT-8KVSX UCSDIB1 IN TBIT COUSTT,
Twenty.six of which were the direct cause of
whisky. Should we besltatet The barkeep

Mr. B. H. Hill, Jr., wu introduced amid
much applause and said that when still un
der the charm of Dr. Hawthorne???s speech he
wu called on and uked to make some re
marks at the meeting of latt nlgbt. He con*
aented and would always consent to tp??k la
such a cause. Ho had not one word or bitter-
nets against the liquor.men. Many were
public spirited, generous and kind. It was
their oiute ho eras against. Sunday thore

meciing. The people would have blushed at
it, and If a woman had been there the people
would have said hor moro proper place was
at home. This is a great moral and social
question, and that moral and social question
which cannot be discussed on the Lord???s
day in the pretenco of the women don???t
deserve the votes of the people. [Applause]
As solicitor general.for eight years he had tried
and convicted 700 convicts, COO ef whom had
committed their crimesunuer the inspiration
of liquor, and COO convicta from this circuit
aic clanking their chains because they were
frit peiseiesd by tho demon ot whisky.
Mr. Hill spoke of the success of prohibition
In Clayton, and said prohibition did
prohibit there. The same sentiment that
makes a law will tee that It it enforced. He
said he wu in favor of
Vestal ???auulon for the man who thinks;
and their awful crimes. To these were to be
added the myriads of orphans and
widows or osekkabbi,
the testimonies of physicians and of jailers.
At the climax he summoned Satan himself,
robed in hit flaming costume and crowned
with the testimonials ol his hellish power. He
toys: "When the Son of God came to save a
sinful world I deemed my reign completed and
my harvest of souls at an end. But
one of my most direful angels uld: ???Let me
go to earth and I will brew a broth that shall
estrange the people from God, and bring them
hastening home to helL??? I let him come, and
he distilled the intoxicating bowl and poured
it out upon the nations. They drink of it,
and their souls Beck through the open gates
of my awful empire in obedience to God???s
judgment that ???no drunkard shall Inherit the
kiogdsm of heaven I????????? Awful testimony.
The criminal stands dumb and speechless.
His friexds and defenders abandon him. God
pronounces his condemnation through
you, and bids you, on the 25 ih
of this month, by yonr ballots,
execute upon the convict the direfat sentence
ef expulsion and death. God bless you and
nerve you to the ucred duty. [Applause.]
