LOCAL OPTION.
WILL REST RiCTION RESTRICT
\ «; - , ...
k L ■ '
3Pl*e Local Option Jaw in Georgia
cm the restriction of the sale of malt
and intoxicating liquors in thb State,
has met the general approbation of the
people, though, wherever it has been
submitted to a popular vote, it has
met with oposition. In some townß and
districts Restriction has been defeated;
but, as far as our information yet ex*
tends, “For Restriction*’ has not bail
ed in a single county, Gordon will
vote on the question the 16th inst;
Floyd, to-day. It is seldom we see
any one attempting to advance any
argument against Restriction through
the Press. Two such articles appeared
in the last issue of the Calhoun Times
and one of them had M. D. attached
to the signature. One very striking
feature about snch articles is, that
they never contain anything attempt
ing disprove the haneful effects of in
toxicating and malt liquors npon our
people and society as asserted by the
oposition. Its use is productive of
evil, andnoone has dared to contro
vert it. Bnt the argument generally
brought in favor of its licensed and
retail sale is, that any law restraining
its sale, does not restrain the quantity
nsed, or not enough to compensate for
the revenue it would bring. Admit
this as true, will it release any one
from the duty to their God and fellow
man, not to deal in any commodity
that everyone (at least approximately
6q) knows and admits that the world
and Roeiety wonM be better off with
out? m evidence that Restriction
will not restrict generally comes from
those who aje interested in the matter
-in a pecuniary sense, which lact, un
der the old rules of evidence, excluded
all such testimony, and in our courts
now it goes to weaken it« weight. No
doubt but there has and does exist
some cause for raising this question,
but its-being so, does not sustain the
honor of the position in favor of nou
rost riot ion or an oposition against the
Temperance movement. Places have
and do exist where the law has been
made a farce, ve venture the assertion,
It is oDly where the people have been
indolent in enforcing it or the anthori
ties afraid to from some cause. In no
ffff R can be made an absolute suc
cess, for there hare always been some
who take a delight in using their ut
most efforts to render such a law in
effective, aud to give it the worst rep
utation they can; and then, as far as
a remedy for an evil being absolutely
effectual, is a natural deficiency in all
human laws. The point to be gained
is, a continued amelioration of the evil.
Let those who tavor and believe that
the results of Restriction will be ben
eficial, be determined, and so act, in
enforcing the law. and cease talking
“you can’t stop it” aud suoh like, and
the time will not be far distant when
the great tide of public sentiment will
drift and act in that direction, crush
ing and rendering futile every .argu
ment tending to support the position
that Restriction will not restrict.
At the sale of pews in Beecher’s
chnrch a short time since, the receipts
were less than any time previous, while
at Talmage’s it was the reverse. From
this, it is clearly evident thatTalmage
is gaining in popularity, while Beech
er is waning. Beecher took part in our
last national contest, while Telmage
remained neutnal and demanded purer
politics, without regaid to parties It
is reasonable to infer, thi*. their ictiolr
in that respect, is the cause of the
present contrast in thou popularity as
ministers of the Gospel. It may be
well enottgh for ministers to work to
infuse the spirts of Christain laws into
tha civil and political powers of our
country, but to tele an antagonistic
action in any contest does not certain
ly accord with the sentiment of onr
people.
East Point, fta.
Feb. 2 y 1885.-
Edit .r Timkß: As several of the
Dade boys are stopping in East Point,
1 thought a few words from this place
would be read with interest by most
of Dade people. So I have made up
my mind to give you a few dots from
here.
East Point is a beautiful tittle town
situated six miles from Atlanta and it
is one of the best acevmmodated places
ic my knowing ami : think it ought to
be one of the delightful places in the
world to live; lor two accommodation
trains run daily and will let a person
on and off at any place; and then
there is lots of laud m liEautiful condi
;. ..
tion for cultivation, for it is nearly
all- 1 suppo'se by the rain; and
to hunt, lam satixfied no county in
the South can beet it, forth* trees are
so low that a squirrel oan never get
ont of ieach; dont misunderstand me
and think the soil to poor to produce
Large trees. I suppoee tbp timber is
all scrub stock down here, is the rea
son*wby they are not large. Cotton
does not grow long enough for the
plants to be in the way of* fall” plow
ing, and corn stalks never have to be
cut down before the plow, and I think
generally' it is a fine country. Now
Ido not write this to give |yon Dade
people die (emigration) fever by anf
means. But I am satisfied if you were
to come down hare and stay a week
you would not leave soan, of coures I
