JUGS AND BOTTLES HAVE FULL SWAY But No One Gets Hurt and all Go Home Happy, From Thuradar'a Dallr Constitution. This morning for the first time In her his tory it is unlawful to sella drink of whisky within the limits of the city of Atlanta. At twelve o’dook leet night prohibition wont In- to effect, and Atlanta atanda alone a olty of fifty thousand or more Inhabitants committed to that policy. The manly and tho reasonable thing to do, la to give prohibition a fell, fair and frank trial. It baa been ordered by the people in an election that has stood the teat of exhaustive legal scrutiny,and la accepted as a fair and full expression of tho popular will. Small evasions of tho law will help neither those who make them nor tho cause they represent. The Mends and tho enemies of prohibition agreed during the campaign that It was an experi ment. It should bo aoeopted as inch and put squarely on its merits. If tho will and spirit of the law la obeyed and prove* to he a failure, In eighteen months It will bo reposted by a popular vote. If on the other hand it la evad ed and contested, no matter what tho romlt may bo it will only band the prohibition peo ple closer togother, and make any adjustment of tho leeue tho more Impossible. All olastes should unite In seeing that tho law la fairly and honestly carried out. Pat It on its merits and if It la beat It will stand. If it it not, It will fall. Beyond the responsibility of the people to which we have alluded, there la a hoary re sponsibility resting upon those who am charged with tho administration of tho law. Thera should ha reason in all things. An attempt to press technical points and path the enforce ment of the law beyond reasonable limits, will be sura to react. There an largo lames and large interests involved in tho experiment upon which Atlanta has entered this morning. These should bo met and adjusted In the larg est spirit of liberality oonslstent with tho en forcement of the pnrposo that lisa in prohibi tion. Pettifogging espionage will be as fatal as trickery in evading the law. Whatever may be the result* of this experi ment Atlanta does not shrink from meeting them. She went into the prohibition fight with her eyes open. Every phase of the question was discussed in tho prolonged and heated campaign. She determined deliberate ly to try prohibition and accept the conse quences of that trial. The experiment be gin! this morning. It will be watched with interest in every state In tho onion. Atlanta owes it to herself to make this experiment In sn honest, fair, dignified end libera! way. This ws an sure sho will do.

The day has been watched for with tho greatest Interest by every one In Atlanta and ont of Atlanta. Every day for the past week the universal salutation has been: “Well, Wednesday next is the last dsy for liquor.” The facisl expression accompanying the re mark, however, differed. A prohibitionist would smile a pleasant to-the-conquorar- belongs-the-ipoila sort of a smile, while the anti's face was covered with a frown and his voice was indicative of almost pain. Bnt the dsy has come end gone, and the world still moves on. On* of the most Interesting features of tho dsy was tbn'grcat number of Jogs, bottles end dcmljolun aeon on the streets. To the oh* servtuwbo occupied a position near the oor- ner grreachtreo and Marietta street, Jogs always In eight. Old men, young men, roman, poor man and well- > aeon moving in almost :non witn a Jug, bottle or demUohn Some carried them openly ana In dependently while others had them aacnrely wrapt In paper end carefully stowed sway under one arm. eo as to attract aa little attention as possible. Jogs were swung about with an air and froe- pom never before toon In Atlanta. On Decatur street, near Loyd, there was a moving, seething mam of negroes. Every on* had a bottle or Jug and all were having com whisky put In them. They were remarkably orderly however ^id joked about tha closing. la the beat of humor prevailed. Tha atopic appeared willing to accept tha sltnylon aa It was, and with a smile and word pMwd each other. ’ the leading ealoona of tha city hat jn famous for Its fins com whtaky, and long tha patrons of that saloon wae Capitol avenno cltieen who never drank anything bnt the com whisky. Yesterday about noon ha an tend tho saloon. Bs had a five gallon dtmljohn In hla hand and plaeiog It on the counter said: “Got any that good corn liquor yet?” “Yea,” said tha aaloonlst, “How mnebdo yon want?” "Five gallons,” was the answer. “Well, don’t know whether Iv’e got that mnch or not but I ” "Alright, give me what you're got, 'canes it’s good. Put it np till I get back,” aid the gentleman, as ha walked out ~ were several gentlemen standing tho aaloonlst picked np hla hag of Iquor and emptied every drop In the , hn, bnt it was hardly half enough, saloonist then wished at the crowd and ‘Well, here’s a chance to get even on him 'cause be voted prohibition.” Ha then filled the demijohn with gin and .jrklng It np placed It on the counter. Tha crowd decided to star and aaa tha play ont and presently tha oora liquor drinker who voted for prohibition came hurriedly in. “Oct my com whisky reedy?” be asked. "Ye*. Here It 1a” answered the saloon “?Ail right; give ma a glass let's sae how It tastes.” A glass was set out, and tha crowd looked on with renewed Interest, believing that the purchaser would detect the fraud. Ha poured ont a drink, gulped it down and mid: “Oh, that’s fine! Bow much I owe you?” “Fifteen dollars,” answered the bar man, as the crowd began to ami la. Tha citizen paid for his gin and corn liquor asd left. If a man had owned five thotusad jigs yes terday morning In Atlanta, and tha jags bad have been bis, he could bar* gone to bed last night rich.

Jogs that have been discarded for years were yes terday brought out. boiled out, clesnod out and then filled with liquor. Tha vinegar jng. the molaaes Jog and even the Jog which had hern consigned to the ash pile as a receptacle for lye was brought into use again, and is to- dsy a treasure. Bottles were abundant, It U true, but it took too many of them to holdaa mnch aaa Jng. TIIE LAST DRINK. As tha Clock Strike* Twelve the Men Take Their Last. At midnight a doaen men, quiet bnt well loaded, were In Breitenbuoher’s. Some were sitting at the table, some were standing by the counter and tome In tho middle of the floor. Tho hinds pointed to midnight, and Phil Breite nbnrcher said: "All ont now; 'tis midnight, and the town'* dry." "One more drink,” said some one, “come op and call for It.” "I’ll take a beer,” said one. “Wblakey,” said another. "Gimme * cocktail." “A eonr.” “A straight.” “Qnickboye, the clock’s striking,'' yelled Phil. "Here's to probe” said the setter up. “Bore's to prohl,” answered the crowd In chorus. The negro man grabbed a rad, began taming ont the lights, and in a minute the place wet dark. In Folsom's two old proht't stood side and side. They were sober, and they were welt ing for the clock. Their drloks were before them, and whan tha deck began to atriko one grabbed hts glare and said: “May It always stay dry,” “Yes, may It always stay dry,” answered the other. "Folsom, did yon send my five gallons c home?" And In a minute Folsom's saloon a lug, one a cocktail, the other straight liquor. "Put me a bottlo under the oonnter, and here's your money,” said ono of tho young men to Mr. Holland, one of the most popultr reloonlsts In the south. "A whit?” asked Mr. Holland. “A buttle of whisky. I can call and get my d rink when I want It.” ‘ Excuse me: catch me dishing ont whisky here after tonight.” •Why?” "1* re always bad a holy horror of sleeping in jail. Don’t think I'll try It on this sum mer.” And tho yonng man tamed sadly sway, carrying the quart under bis left arm. At tan minutes to twalvo the reporter again went into tho bar. This time he round a number taking their lost nip. Presently fellow wearing a broad brim hat waltzod and slapping hla atlok on the oonnter, said: "I’m a howling cowboy from Texas, and I propose to drink this town dry, I do. Give mo straight good, Mr. Gin Sllnger, and no stamp water, goat milk and logwood. I'm bad dtlsen, I am. Do you hear,” Special Officer Fouto was standing conven iently near, and tap;' ‘' reminded him of the quiet or bo bounced. "All right, pud, give me er quart, an' I’ll go." Ho got hla qnart and departed, and he was the last man who drank at the Klmbtll house bar, for the doors eloaed, 'and the last night waaover. “What will yon do tomorrow?” asked tho reporter of the proprietor. "Just what was published In yesterday’* Constitution, in an interview with Mr. SeovlUe.” “Yon fear no trouble?” "Note bit. There will be no violation of tho law, and where can tho trouble corns from?" __ __ LAY OF TOR LAST MlNSTfrfcLS. The Boys Who Took In tha Town After IS O'Oloek. “Mule hath charms to tooths the savage ■east,' 1 and aa the drunken crowd were forced from the doors of the Big Bonans* by the polios—they bant into long, end forming Into* regular battalion, four abreast, they mucked uonnd the Kimball, making the night hideous with their din. It wae a good- natnred crowd though, despite Its bluster, and their hoots and yelu meant no harm to any body, unices It was to tho man that was trying to sleep. "Pare around the bottle and well ail take a drink," was tha bnrdtn of their long, and this wae punctuated hare and there with yells ot “Hurrah for prohibition.” Noth ing hot a bonfire and a few icons of torch lights were needed to make np a regular Fourth of July demonstration, and tha thing had very much tho air of a Christmas night in midsummer. Now and then some poor fellow who had shipped more than he conld carry would drop from tha ranks and sink to tha pavement, bnt h* would be grabbed on either side by those whose legs were more steady, and dragged along after tha yelling procession. Some fal lows whoa* llqnor developed a belligerent spirit, would square themselves offend declare that theyoonld lick any son of a thief of a prohibitionist that wonld show himself, bnt If sny inch was present ho was notofsn argu mentative tom of mind, and was disposed to take their word for It. The police were In structed to give the crowd considerable lice are, and only interfere when necemery to prevent Injury to person or property. The strolling minstrels accordingly took possession of the town, and a* Tux Constitution presets ware working this morning, the refrain still echoed In the distance, "Pee* around the bottle and we'll all take a drink.” ATLANTA'S WINE BOOMS. Marietta Street to Have Several Handsome Ones HoswThey Will be Bon. Several of tho ealoon doors will open again this morning but will not open as barrooms. They will open aa wins rooms. Yesterday City Clerk Goldsmith issued win* room lice ness to Phil Breltebnchsr, Scovlll* A Beermann and L. B. Folsom, Kenny A Wer ner and the Bonanza will fol low an it today and procure a similar license. Tho gentlemen who have taken out these licensee will not attempt to eell liquor or beer, bat trill content thonueiros with serving native trines, cigars and tobacco. They trill make lemonade and other load drink* that do not require llqnor. Each of the gentlemen who havo taken ont a license ray most positively that they will not sail nor allow the ml* of whisky or beer In these Breitenbneher’s handsomely finished saloon will look odd with all tha whisky oat, sad that nobby little place, the Bonanza, will look jnataaodd. NOT EXPENDED FOR NOTHINO. A Prohibitionist Says That Prohibition Will Prohibit. Will th* law ba enforced? Jut now s good many paopla In Atlanta are asking themselves, their friends and thsir neighbors that question. “Prohibition u hare,” they my, “and now that it labors, will It prohibit?” Ou* of th* most prominent yon nr prohibi tionists in the city, eaid to a Constitution reporter yaaterdsy: “We prohibition! tbourand dollars for nothiag. “ coat aa, bnt every cent legitimately. Oar car riage bills ware heavy, and ao were our braze band bill*, our speakers’bills, and our food bills. We paid roundly tot the food end had coffee served to valets on the day of th* election. W* paid roundly for ad vertisement* in the newspapers. We don’t propoe* to loo* the money we ezpended. We Intend to see that the law is enforced." A former anti-prohibitioalat, recently verted to prohibition principle*, said: "I understand that by soma hocua-pocn liquor dealers have obtained the list ef voters at the prohibition election. AU tho** tint voted ‘wet’ will be able to get ihvors 'behind the scenes.’ Thoso that voted ‘dry’ will bo boycotted. Well, all right, but yon are going to me the law enforced." THEY DO NOT CLOSE. Tho Wholesale Liquor Men Pay Their Li cense Tax and Will Oo On. The wholesale men will remain open until about the last of Angnet, and after that time whisky will not berm ule anywhere except In the drugstore*. Tho wholesale houses con tinue bectueo the license they operate under cornea from the county and state and not from the city. The wholesale licenses an Issued for the county by Ur. Tyler Cooper end ex- tend over the space of a year. It ao happened that Cox, Hill A Thompson, J. M. Hill and rani Jones procured licensee In August last and these licenses cannot be revoked. Yester day the gentlemen went to the city clerk and paid the city license tax which Is required by ordinance, and are thus entitled to continue until their etato licenses expire. Mr. Fanl Jones’s Uccnie expires last, August 25. MAYOR’S PROCLAMATION.

Th* Construction Pieced Upon the Term by th* Mayor end Chief. The leloonlate who are thinking of opening win* room* are anxious to know whet con struction the mayor and police department and caarte will place upon “native wlnte.” Borne persons claim that “natlva wines" mean wines mad* In Georgia only, while others claim that It means winw made any whan In tha United States.

What Baal Batata Agents gay or Certain Th* OomWTUTioM has already referred to the statement* published In a Macon paper rel ative to th* number of hosaw for rent In At lanta. Oneofthow statement* wae that th* real estate agents of Atlanta havaonthair rent Hate fully fifteen bandied house*, and that this large number of vacant houses wu tha recrilt of Dtohibftion. Toe Constitution hu shown that this wu a treacly exaggerated .statement of the number ef vacant house* In Atlanta, and this morning it is enabled to show how th* exaggeration oc curred. Th* parties who eansad tha statement to b* published, obtained from th* real eitste agents lists of all hoatu sad parts sf houses they have for rent. Parte of nenees, la many inatenou single noma, were counted u honsee. For butene*, at th* office of Leek A Lyle,* Constitution reporter wee ” bis story: i furnished a rent list to th* oorrwpoa- dent of e Macou paper. On It were many single rooms, every on* ef which the corre spondent counted u a house. In a mjertiy of Instances, the owner of a honso which ha de ltas to rent will place it on the llata of all tha real estate dealers at the urn* time. Thru- fonrtbe of the hones* now for rent in Atlanta will ho found upon tha list* of all the promi nent real estate agents. The eorraepoudent of the Macon paper counted the same houses as many aa half a dozen times.” ‘ How many house* in Atlanta are for rent? 11 "Good, bad and indlflercnt there are not 800.’’ "How many doalrable residence) are for rent?” "Beginning with four-room houree and as cending tho acale, there are not two hundred and fifty.” "How many vacant residences are there In the city? ’ "There are not sixty. At Samuel W. Goode’s office, tho reporter heard a similar story. Mr, Anderson Howard •aid: “There are not two hundred and fifty da •table residences In Atlanta for rent. Tho itories that havo been published abont the number of bouse* for rent In Atlanta are abenrd.” In tho language of another real catato agent: “Misrepresentation Is a mighty poor game." QUESTIONS OF CONSTITUTIONALITY, Different Opinions Ooneernlng the Local Option Act. The Interest In the constitutionality of tho local option act contlnnu unabated. It la be lieved by some that tho tost case under tho domettlc wlno clause will canes the entire act to bo declared unconstitutional. Others be lieve that only that special clauso will bo de clared unconstitutional. Others, and they are by no meana few in numbor, believe that the entire act will be declared to be In strict con formity with tho constitution. It la agreed that the two loading questions of constitutionality presented by the act are: First, does It not interfere with tho vested rights of tho Atlanta City Brewing company ann wonln not preventing that company from doing bneineea bo unconstitutional, and, therefore, render the act null and void? Second. If tho domestic wine claueo means Georgia wince, does not tho act attempt to regulate Interstate commerco, and le It not, therefore, unconstitutional r Neither of theeo questions has aver bean finally decided. The derisions affecting them do not ehed mnch light upon them, althongh it Is claimed that tho weight of tho decisions eeemi to foreshadow afilrmatiro replies to bedh.
