Never, perhaps, in the history of this state have Christians and home lov ers and patriots been called to do a more valuable service to the common wealth than now. "There are one hundred and twenty dry counties In Georgia and twenty-six wet counties, aud every dry county In this state is a common dumping ground for the heartless wet counties. And vain are the protests and pitiable are the cries for mercy, but the Jug train runs right along, and evory year the people of our be loved state, from the mountains to the seaboard, aro being debauched by these few wet counties. The time has come to call a halt. The people have been outraged sinned against enough. Relief must come. An antl-Jug bill was pending before tbo last, suasion of the legislature, and will doubtless come up early Id the coming session next summer. We have most hoarty assurances that this 'till will pass. When this great day comes there will certainly be re joicing In one hundred and twenty dry counties In the state. But we arc contemplating a greater victory thar that. Wo mean. God helping- us, to securo statewide prohibition. Wo easily have a majority for prohibition In the house and a good chance f victory in the senate.
