Convention whlcn met in Atlanta on toe 4 h
Inst, It I* *xpecti<d that we give at least a
synopsis of what was done on that orca
she. We will <to so.
The convention was called to order at 10
a. m, by Judge J. D.Uunsingham. who was
afterwards elected temporary chairman
A SecreUt y iauag appointed. Judge Cun
ningham In a few eloquent remarks stated
the object of the meeting, and after prayer
by Rev. A. T. Spalding, amto>wc»d thecun
ventlon ready for business.
The roll ot delegatos eluut was calimJ, and
nearly every county In Hie State was found
to be represented.
On motion. Judge J W H Underwood was
electoil (lerniaiient chairman. On taking
his seat. Judge Cuderwood made a strong
and beautiful address on the subject of tom
liecance, amidst loud and repeated cheer*
mg W G. Whtdby was elected permaiioat
Secretary.
At this juncture, ths convention received
amidst enthusiastic applausn, a delegation
of twenty-five ladles from toe W.C. T. U. of
Atlanta.
A oomrulttse of thirteen was appointed to
arrange business for the convention, and
during their roti rem eut many earuwii re
marks were made and papers read looking
to the great end in view, the suppression of
the liquor trafite The hour of 12 arrived,
the convention adjourned until 3 p m.
For the afternoon session other delegate*
had arrived, and the Representatives' Hall
was literally crowded. Abto’t 3:30 the com
mittee <hi busmens luade their report. Ths
repott read, several amoUmonts and substi
tutes were offered, backed up by ringing
aud eloquent »|>ceehea, aud amidst great
aiithualasui; but finally all amendments
and substitutes were withdrawn, and the
original report was passed by au almost
unanimous vote. The reports Is in part as
follows;
"Your committee respectfully recom
mend that this convention ask th* General
Assembly to 4»*hs an act forbidding and
prohibiting the msmifaeiuie, sale or turn*
Isliing of any aud ail intoxicating or malt
liquors, except for tiK-dl.-liial, manufactur
ing or sacramental purjioeae, under propel
restrictions.
That the manufacture and sale of Intox
icating liquors is a nuisance, an unequnh<d
curse to tile people ami NtaUs but wlieuevei
any county, city, town or militia district
snail or may desire to establish a distiller v
lor the pur|>ose of tnanulactut lug liquors,
or to sell llquoie, they may petlllcm the Or
dinal y, who shall order an election to be
tielil a* lu ea»u of ukM iioii for ttiemlw-rs of
tlu> General Assembly, at which election ail
qimltlled voters iu the county, city, town oi
militia district shall ba entitled to vote.
That the tickets aliall be endorsed ‘whisky*
or ‘no whisky,' and should a inajoHty of all
the quidllhxl voters vote 'whisky,' then the
Ordinary or Mayor may issue license as
prescribed by law."
The above ts the principle portion of the
report. The convention was thenoccupled
hi minor matters until a late hour Monday
night, when It adjourned.
1 he meeting was very satisfactory, and
all the friends of temperance are sure It is
gaining ground. Numbers of the leading
m«i> ot Georgia were present as delegates,
■nd were very enthusiastic on the subject,
and feel confident of ultimate success.

Columbia Advxutiskh:
’ l ie true, 'tls pity,
Aud pity 'tls, 'tie true,
That our prohibition trieuds are not con
tent to conduct a noble cause, temperance,
in a aoblK way—by sound seiiac, able argu
ments, dignified discussion and nice words,
in a courteous, Christian character. In
stead, they resort to abuse and slander, and
show a great want ot Ciirmtiau charity,
thus “making the world apfiear the better
cause."
“Alas for the rarity
Ot Christian charity,
Under the sun."
An advocate of prohibition In your last Is
sue secures me of selllslineM and truckling
--of a want of manliimss and candor, sim
ply because I do not think ae he does on the
sulijoct. He contradicts himself through
out bls incoherent article, ackuowieiigeH
that the sale of liquor is prohibited at
Grovetow ■ , thus showing that the present
“local option” law is eufficieut. It opera
tive at Grovetown, which before the pas
sage of this law ha*! a most UMOViable rep
utation, why can It not ba suoceesfuliy ear
ned out loot h r sections of the county? If.
then, the pres*-nt law is efficient, why all
this zeal, fuss and feathers, "sound and fu
ry Higiilfying nothing'' this stilling up <4
strife, to enact another law? If a farmai
| lias a good, faithful horse, what a fool he
would be to go riding about over the oouu*
try to swap It off for another that he knows
nothing of. “Striving totH-tter, oft wo mar
what's well." We have been getting on
smoothly and neighborly in our county:
there is no foundation to rear thirf mighty
prohibition zeal upon. If tilers bad tieen
murders, robberies and other crimes com
mltted in the county, traced, Imllspulabiy,
to the dram ahopia, and the existing law bad

Mu. EtiHVn: Before you Will publish
this letter, theq-iMtton of prohibition will
•m fur a time at least, beyoud the reach of
discussion. But tho question remains; and
If laid fafore Ilia people fur decjslon, will
bvuiM doubly interesting. I hope the pro
hibitionists may auccosl that lar.
"John Gillis," In his letter In the Adver
tieerot the3lst June, evidently eonslders
th*- proldljlUoii agitation ass valid political
movement. 1 sincm ely hope this Is nut ao.
Ido not Is-iiove it Is so. But tUn movouieul
has a isilltleal significance of much higher
hupoi tenon than any that can .a* tee tmui
the peltry tßSilfe us county electioneering.
It will present the Intensely Interesting
spectacle of a free people voting about tholr
rights. Ido not hfaitatu to say that the
qureduu of prohibition is of soouudary,
even liislgiißleanl weight, compared with
th-i one which Is Involved. It seems to me
no les-* than this; whether there Is not dan
ger of establishing a precedent from which
shall grow the subvoi ilon us our liberty.
The <en<lency of cur Btato toward ultra-
Duiuocrncy has been a matter of curious
inbei-st to mu for some time. It te now a
eubj**ct of perplexing anxluty. It Is no usw
problem In government, how much power
the pooploought to surrender to their cho
sen rideia, and how much they ought to re
tain; and it Is no new thing in history for a
people to the right to vote away tholr free*
dopi, and to doit. 1 fear that we have not
yet proven the possibility of a siteefaaful
republic. True, w*> have thus far cacaissd
the rock on which so many young republics
have gone to pieces, the error ot putting
Us> much power us the few at the beginning,
but wo yet stand iu danger of tha whirlpool
ablch lias sucked In so many older ones--
the folly of voting away their must sacred
light. Il remain* to be aeon how the Auin
ricau people will uno their tsmateii aoverign
ty. Il I* late In the day for us to be get
ting drunk with power, but we nevertheless
ereiu very giddy. Il Is not a leas danger
our intoxication than Uiat ot whisky.
1 tie qmwtione which present themselves
to my udnd on thlssubj<V't are these! Have
we the light bi vote on thia qui-atioii? Have
we even the rlglit to prop*** It? Aud if we
have the right, is it exp**lisnt? The -mnd
dliug of governments with oommercs has
always boon considered Injudicious. Is It
eafo tor tiie people to do what te injurious
when Mulcted by rulers? Notwithstanding
all the sophistry about the complicated rs
quireiiii'iiia of civilisation, the fact remain*
that It I* dangerous for govern manta
lo go beyond tlui protectioa ot life, pro
perty tend rep'ilutlon. Doe* this bill to
prohibit the aale ot liquors In Columbia
county coms within th* legitimate office of
guveimuent to protect? I wish tiie men
from whom we have a right to expect in
