Mitchell Street LETTERS COMMENDING THE GEORGIAN’S STAND C0RRECT8 SOME ERRORS. > the Editor of The Georgian: The following appeared In Friday's Atlanta Journal under the head of "Caught On the Fly by Ralph Smith:” '"The Texas antl-Jug law, In my hum- e Judgment, furnishes a solution of •he whisky problem,' said a prominent tnember of the house yesterday, dis using the prohibition question with blends In the lobby of the Jumbal], He expressed the belief that “Wrgla should have a law modeled "i't the Texas measure. The shipment of whisky Into dry aunties of the state has been sup- l >y the operation of the antl- ... taw, and local option Is proving a , success, 1 he continued. . Texas law requires the express jempanlea handling C. O. D. packages “Pay a license tax of 15,000 for every “SPhcy in the state where such pack- ar f bandied. None of the com- wl,s have paid the prohibitive tax, Store Your Valuables While* Out of Town Our Safe Deposit Boxes are tummodious and conveniently ar- fal >ge<i for the safekeeping; of val- ttal) lr papers and jewelry, ns well as articles of greater bulk. They arc absolutely secure and from dampness and rust. Moderate Prices. Central Bank & Trust Corporation Candler Building, and the shipment of whisky Into dry counties has practically ceased, nearly all of it goes C. O. D." We wonder how came Ralph Smith to publish the above. Perhaps ho thought It a good Joke on the legisla ture to show how silly one of their number could talk. Almost any ten- year-old boy knows that no one would dare ship any C. O. D. packages of whisky in this state, for In so doing the express agent would lay himself liable to prosecution for delivering and receiving pay for whisky, such action constituting a sale under the laws of the state ot Georgia. This "prominent member" qjther knows mighty little of what he Is talk ing about or has a mighty poor opinion of the Intelligence of the good people of Georgia to think they would be sat isfied with such a measure ns ho pro- poses. Of course such a law as this would suit the saloon keepers of Atlanta, Au gusta, Savannah and other cities. Just as the local option delusion suits them, as they never ship whisky C. O. D., anyway; but nothing less than a straight prohibition bill is going to suit the large majority of the people of Georgia. Barkeepers In W2t counties ere ship ping thousands of dollars’ worth of li quor Into every dry county In this state under this "dearly beloved" (by the li quor men) local option law, and If this "prominent member’s’ proposed bill should pass In lieu of prohibition, it would not change the state o.. affaire one bit, as the money Is always sent In advance, and the whisky shipped direct to tho party ordering It. It seems that the people of Georgia have allowed themselves to be deceived so long by the cry' of local option that our friends, the enemy, think that any eld makeshift of a bill would .a .fy (hem In the place of a prohibition b *But right here they ore badly mis taken. The recent election* In Bartow. Lowndes and other counties In this state show the sentiment of the people on this question. The people all over Georgia are arouged as they hare never Wn*before. and woe unto ‘h* future political prospects of the legislator who UeOes the will of the peonle on this v.rv Imoortent question. The people of Georgia are determined to rld our grand old slate of the greatest cutee that ever afflicted a free people—the li quor Ira (He.

Lots of people will no longer patronise It because The Georgian has come out in defense of the homes of Georgia. And to The Georgian we would say go on with your fight, and If you win, the victor}- will bo greater than even Hoke Smith won, even If be accom pushes everything he promised to do. The free pas* question, the freight rate question, the lobby question and the various other reforms advocated by Governor Smith, while very Important, are Insignificant os compared with the liquor question. High freight rates never caused a mnn to come home Into at night and abusa his wife and chil dren. Free passes have never caused a man to tako the life of his fellow man or give Its victim delirium tre mens. Lobbying hus never caused a man to go In rags while his wife nnd children begged bread. But whisky Is doing It all every day and more be sides. So I repeat, go on with your fight for the home and right, for In winning of the victory, which Is sure to be yours If you faint not, you will have made secure the safety and happiness of every little boy and glrl'ln Georgia, who otherwise might have become a drunk ard or a drunkard’s wife. You will stop the tears of many a poor mother, whose heart Is breaking ever a wayward son going down to ruin and destruction on account of strong drink.

Boise, Idaho, July 9.—The reading of .the Bat) Francisco depositions In the Haywood trial, which yesterday furnished strong evidence to brand Harry Orchard, the etate's star wit ness, as a perjurer; was resumed today and will likely consume the greatest part of today's session. Judge Fremont Wood, In ruling on portion of the depositions which con. talned copies of affidavits by Detective McPartland and Governor Gooding, and which contradicted statements made by Orchard, caueed Indignation among the eupporters of the defence.

My Dear Sir:—I feel that It Is not only a pleasure but a duty to thank you and express my sincere apprecla tlon of tho noble stand you have ta ken In behalf of our women and chll dren, and for God and the right. The Christian people—the good peo ple of this state—will sustain you and you will see The Georgian "bloom and blossom as the rose,” carrying Its light Into now darkened homes, until It shall cover Georgia, and Its beneficent influ ences will be felt long after we have paesed off the stago ot action. God will uphold and sustain you In your noble effort to rid our state from the blighting curse of this hydra-headed monster. Intemperance, which has held sway over this fair land of ours for jo long, this two-edged sword, which has cut down and cast Its countless thou sands Into premature graves, and sent their souls Into perdition. Any eeem- Ing sacrifice which you may now have to make will be as ‘‘bread cast upon the waters,” to return In the future bringing Its marvelous Increase. Mve sufficient faith In the man hood of Georglg to believe that they will abundantly sustain you. 1 think It would be nothing but right and Just that you publish the names of hose eminent Christian gentlemen (?) vho ordered their ads. taken out of The Georgian that we may know whom to trade with or whom to patronize. Again thanking you In behalf of our women apd children and suffering hu manity for the bold, brave, and noble stand you have taken for the common good, and assuring you ot my earnest support and praying God's richest blessing upon you aud your paper, I am. Yours In the cause, A. M. WALKER. 163 McAfee Street, Atlanta, Ga. MADI80N COUNTY TEACHERS. The following resolutions were unan imously adopted by the Teachers' In stitute of Madison county, Georgia, July 5: Whereas, The beverage liquor bust- ness Is an unnatural, lawless,.spurious Institution, and a destructive and dan gerous civic parasite whose only end and effect Is to blast and destroy nil that we as teachers are trying to de velop and build up, namely, good cltl- sens and noble men and women; and, Whereas, There Is npw pending be fore the general assembly of Geor gia a bill to prohibit absolutely the manufacture and sale ot Intoxicating liquor In the state of Georgia; there fore. belt Resolved, by the teachers of Madison county, Georgia, In county Institute as sembled, That we earnestly requeet the representative and senator from this county and senatorial district, as well as all other good men ot the general assembly, to stand squarely and truly for and to vote for the prohibition bill until It becomes an effective law of our state. We believe with the constitution of Georgia, that "protection to person and property Is the paramount duty of gov. eminent.” The liquor business con stantly destroys both person and prop erty. We pray you as law-makers to stand law school, — Itself against this destructive outlaw, the liquor business: kill it. Resolved, further. That believing that •ge majority of the white people of state are strongly In favor of prn- iltlon, we deplore land strongly con demn the position and action of men and official* In some of the larger cities of Georgia In their effort to subvert and thwart the will of the majority on GRAND RALLY, PROHIBITIONIST, TONIGHT WesleyanTabernacle, Ivy St., 8 P.

Ala, July 9.—In hi* message to tho Alabama-legislature, which convened this morning to finish an adjourned session, Governor Comer laid particular stress on the action,the slate should take In ruling the rail roads and commended the solona on the work done in the winter session along these lines. He stated that the action of the Alabama roads In' resisting the stale laws Is strictly against proylslons of the Fourteenth amendment to tho constitution of the United States. He spoke of the litigation In which the state Is now Involved as a disgrace, lie stated that he thought the fran chise tax law had been badly miscon strued, and, although It was a bad prec. edent to repeal an act, that he would hot oppose repealing the clq\iso on franchise chdrges on foreign iruiney lenders, should such an action be taken. A suggestion Is made to tho loglsla-. lure that biennial sessions of the law makers be arranged, as four years Is too long to draft between the sessions. Because at the winter session appro priations for the expenditure of $1,160.- 000 annually for four years was made, Governor Comer cautioned the legisla tor* to be careful with future appro priations. At the winter session a slate depos itory law was passed and now the gov ernor suggests that the $2,000,000, which Is deposited there be loaned to the banks on good security, and he asks that the law be amended*lo make this possible. He also suggests that all freight trains be stopped on Sunday. \Ve wish we were a Tiny Tad A-swimming in the pool, We wonder what there is to buy That keeps the body cool! DEATH3.
