In making prohibition frankly the paramount issue of the present cam paign, Hooper Alexander If taking a long < hance. *o far a* the cau*e of pro hibition is r cnncerned. This may he a sign of great political < -ourage or a hign of great political foolhardiness. a* one care* to view* it. It will be argued by some that Mr. Alexander can not lose any more by making prohibition the primary cause of war, no matter how the battle goer*; Iha I lie would lose if he Nought to be little it. ’Therefore, sonif people hold, that ir is good polities on the part of Mr. Alexander to view with alarm and ‘holier’’ prohibition with as much dis trict* in his voi'-e as he can muster. There are prohibitionist*. however, who think that the gentleman from lb Kalb is about to play the deuce and Tom Walker with the cause of prohibi tion. and they argue this way. Mr. Alexander will raise the issues of lawlessness, anarchy, debauchery, corruption and blind tlgerlsm through out Georgia, with such vociferous as sistance as he can obtain he will em phasize the crying necessity for- more statutory prohibition and better prohi bition as It never has been emphasized before the people directly before—and when the vote counting time ponies, he will receive a handful of votes only’, comparatively speaking. Many ardent prohibitionists hold that this will leave their cause in worse shape than it ever has been in Geor gia and they ate saying that they are being called upon to sacrifice much on the altar of Mr. Alexander's doubtful ambit ion. If a scattering vote throughout Geor gia is to i>e the answer to Mr. Alex ander's vehement appeal for more pro hibition, where does the cause of pro hibition get off? It may ire that Mr. Alexander can beat Mr Slaton -but not one man in ten believes it. <‘olonel Roosevelt is coming to Georgia to “bull moose’’ around a bit!

Broyles, recorder of (he po lice court of Atlanta and candidate for a seat on the court of appeals, talks interestingly of the suggestion recent ly advanced that he is candidate of the prohibitionists,’’ and that there Is objection to him in south Georgia be cause "he hails from Atlanta, where one of the present judges of the court of appeals lives.’’ Mr. Broy lps sh ys. "I am ‘toting my own skillet.' 1 am not running on a prohibition platform, for- then- are other questions in Geor gia as important as the prohibition question.

I shall tepresent on the court of appeals, not Atlanta, but Georgia. “I submit th.it ’he only fair, sound question in this contest is. not whether an Atlanta man or a Blakely man should be elected, but of the two can didates. which one is the better qual ified to serve the people’ of Georgia on the court of appeals?” John M.
