of this reached Atlanta Friday Jn the
shape of a letter from one of hln

The Atlanta man waa Theodore Kap-

young man is survived by live sisters;
He Is also survived by a brother, who

"Election day for constables of Jus
tice courts. 'Close your bars/’—The
Georgia Law.
Election day under the law, and yet
In reality a day without an election—
that Is the situation that the liquor
sellers of Atlanta find themselves up
against Saturday.
What .to- do they do not know*. They
are between Scylla and Charlbdls—or
In Atlanta English, between the Devil
und the deep sea.
Most of them aren't taking any
chances and have closed their bars, but
two on Mitchell street are reported
with open doors.
The Georgia statute declares that on
alternate years—and this is one of 'em
—the first Saturday In December shall
be an election day for the election of
constables for Justice of the peace
courts. On every fourth year—this Is
not one of 'em—the statute says Jus
tices of the peace shall be elected.
Now, os a matter of fact, Saturday
Is un election day under the law, but
it Is also true that there are no con
stables running for Jobs. Justices of
the peace appoint constables when they
want any and on the first Saturday in
December it appears that none of the
Justices is In need of constables.
Another Georgia law nays that on
every election day all barrooms within
u radius of two miles of any election
precinct shall close.
A Knotty Question.
Question for barkeeps: What shall
we do?
A day or two ’ago the barkeeps saw
this state of affairs coming and they
began to ask questions. They consulted
Justice of the. Peace J. G. Blood worth
and asked him for advice. He told
them frankly. that he wasn't electing
any constables and he didn't know* -if
anybody who was. But he pointed out
the cold, cold law* and said it would be
Ise to take no chances. Raid It would
Bioodworth and they agreed with him
that lt was better to close. But they
said a couple of houses op-Mitchell
street were braving possible conse
quences and were open for buslneee.
Justice Bioodworth says that the
law making the first Saturday in De
cember on alternate yeaqp election day
for justice of the peace constables ap
plies all over the state, so the barkeeps
have the satisfaction of knowing that
they are not alone In being up against
such a tough proposition.
And they do say that Haturday Is nno
of the best days Ih the week for the
business.
