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.

It was their oiute ho eras against. Sunday thore Suppciothe antl-proh! 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.

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.
