When the
Pendulum Swings—]
What Then?
Watch the awing of the pendu-
lum.
Ye reformers who are never sat.
isfled with a condition that makes
for well enough.
The present regulation of the
whisky and beer traffic through a
tax act which was passed as a
compromise salve to a sentiment
that had been held up by sheer
legislative force, will either stand
without change, or Georgia will
be enthralled In the bitterest cam-
paign that has ever divided her
people.
Those who are agitating more
restrictive prohibitory measures do
not seem to be aware of the great
wrong that is being threatened to
^he peace of the State, the sta
bility of our* institutions and the
salvage of property and personal:
rights.
The open bar has been closed
The jug traffle has been stopped.
Interstate commerce has been in
voked to protect State restrictions.
And yet the professional agitator
is not satisfied.
First traveling over the country j
in forensic bitterness. Next or
ganizing committee work to keep
tome well-salaried laborer worthy
of his hire. Then using the forum
of good will to abuse judges and
even Governors of the State for
failure to place the community of
the cavalier under the martial law
of puritanical insistence, these fo-
menters of strife are in never-end
ing war, with ambitious tongues
that seem to know’ nothing but in
temperate speech and to consider
that there is no harm in severe
and uncharitable denunciation of
opposing view.
And to think! Wide and free
circulation is given to every inter
view and to every public utterance
of the prohibition school-teacher
and suffragist by the so-called un
trammeled press of Atlanta,
whereas the business thought of
communities that maintain these
same papers is denied expression
except under the unjust trade
mark, “Advt.”
This is nothing short of a crime
against common justice and that
liberty which the press invokes
for its own protection when out
raged sentiment assails the “sa-
cied rights.”
All this tends to cower the offi
cial, make timid the merchant, ter
rorize the average citizen, who are
the sufferers from a campaign of
intimidation that is even con
trolling the bench.
This brings up the question that
there Is scarcely a judge in Geor
gia who has not directly or indi
rectly given sanction to the opera
tion of the whisky law under our
system of taxation.
These accept invitations to ban
quets and public dinners where
wine, whisky and beer are dis
pensed, if they do not actually be
long to clubs where alcoholics arej
kept and served.
Not only Is this true, but nearly
all men in official place give such
recognition to the present safe and
sound regulation ofsthe traffic, in
cluding business men and agitat
ing moralists, scarcely any of
whom will decline a ticket to a
wine dinner or barbecue given to
representative delegations that
come to our city on missions of
public Improvement.
This being the case, it seems
most singular that our papers will
refuse to take editorial cognizance
of a discussion that threatens so
much evil to public peace and
business welfare.
It isn’t a question of temper
ance. There Is no argument as to
the evil in whisky, tobacco or
foodstuffs intemperately used. No
use in quoting rulers and scien
tists. The question is academic
It is a simple matter of control—
'hat control which will best pro
tect society against the blight and
the crime of turning Atlanta and
Georgia over to the rabies of blind
tigerism through vile concoctions.
And think of the swing of the
pendulum the w hile. Continue the
agitation and Georgia will return
to the open barroom, the jug train
and like attendances.
Do the Judges, the Ministry, the
Press want to invite this return?
The great Bob Toombs once
said: "Law is common sense." It
follows as a logical conclusion that
nothing is lawfully just that is
not literally true. That is why the
intent of all criminal law gives
the benefit of reasonable construc
tion to the defense.
It is an elementary fact that
intelligent defining would make
anything connected with licensed
sale impossible under the blind-
tiger statute. Blind means some
thing that is hidden, concealed
and tiger w r as affixed by that
frenzy of mind that associates a
mad beast with all traffic in liq
uor. There is nothing concealed
in the licensed sale of whisky and
beer, and it follows that none of
the places operating under the
existing regulation can be jud -
daily designated blind tigers.
Courts that may have so held
are in conflict with the meaning of
a plain English w r ord as laid down
by every lexicographer who ever
compiled a dictionary.
“Law is common sense” and al*
law should be construed by the
common-sense standard of reason
ing.
The pendulum of protest -
swinging. Let it be controlled
telligently, courageously and right
eously—or chaos and error will
usurp the citadel of reason and
truth.
