It i, most regrettable that the consumption of coffee In this country has
increased to a point to warrant manipulation of the supply’.
We don't like to look upon coffee as becoming a NECESSITY to the
American people, and view with alarm the activities of capital suggesting that
it IS becoming a necessity.
Coffee Isn't good for you. .
Too much of it is positively harmfu,

If vou don't believe us, ask your doctor.
He will tell you that coffee contains caffeine. which he gives In the

POLICE ATTACK
2 LOCKER CLUBS
Chief Beavers Asks Prosecu
tion of the Southern and
Order of Bees.
Police Chief Beavers again declared
war against so-called locker clubs -to
day. when he ordered cases made
against the Southern club, ill t-2 Ma
rietta street, and the Order of Bees.
25 1-2 East Alabama street, for viola
tions of the city liquor laws.
The cases followed a conference be
tween the chief and City Attorney
Mayson. and the chiefs orders were
carried out by Detectives Chewning
and Norris. They were the result of
several complaints against the resorts,
J. F. Race, manager of the Southern
club, was charged with operating with
out a permit from the council and with
violating section 1489 of the code in
keeping liquor on hand for illegal sale.
B. B. Owen, manager of the Bees, was
charged with defying the city in oper
ating without a permit, but he can not
be tried on this charge now. as he has
obtained an injunction against the city,
which is pending in the state courts.
Three other clubs have obtained at
least temporary immunity through in
junctions against the "city.* ' r hey are
the Order of Owls, the Knights of the
Mystic Ark and the Georgia Athletic
club.
"These clubs.xas they call them
selves. must obey the city law and the
state prohibition law." said Chief Beav
ers today. "The city atorney has ruled
that clubs must have individual, lock
ers. and these organizations have no
such lockers, nor are they bojia-flde
clubs."
POLITICAL BATTLE
AT AUGUSTA LEADS
TO PRIMARY BOLT
AUGUSTA, GA., July 1;-—Campaign
managers of L. C. Hayne have with
drawn his name from the white pri
mary to be held on July Ifi. Mr. Hayne
will enter the general election of De
cember 3 Five candidates for council,
B. E. Dester, William Boyle, F. Is
Boyce. John W. McDonald and William
Martin, also withdrew their names.
Th« action of Mr. Hayne and the five
others follows the decision of the white
primary- committee, which is controlled
by supporters of Dr. J. R. Littleton for
mayor, refusing to abide by the purg
ing of the registry list at the hands of
a committee appointed by the mayor
and city' council, according to custom.
The primary committee named a purg
ing committee of its own. which the
Hayne element declares to be biased
and which would listen to no com
plaints against those illegally regis
>ered who favor Dr. Littleton. The
’■rimary committee claims that ft had a
■•gal right to appoint a purgin? com

The situation is such that the white
■ imary system is threatened. The
egistration closed Saturday for the
ity election and but few negroes are
qualified to vote in the December elec
tion.
