MAM JOlAt LttTTEM.
Atlanta Journal.
Our meetings in Marietta closed Sun
dav uigbt and left a glow of good feel
iog attesting the fact that they were
great moral uplift to Marietta and her
pco.le.
Marietta is as high grade town as
any I know of in our Southland, and
ret these infernal things called blind
tigers have been a curie to Marietta for
a dozsn year. There was, during our
meetings, aroused sentiment and an
organization which meant down with
them and out with them, A citizen
ship that approves blind tigers is in'
fsmour; a ci'izenthlp that tolerates
tbem is cowardly. Tber are lawless,
disreputable, low-Bang, and without
excuse in any community except as
they may be patronized and apologized
lor by the dirtiest gang that ever
cursed the 'world. Sometimes it is a
disreputable nigger running these
blind tigers; sometimes a more dli-
reputab e white man; sometimes a wo
man, and a more demoralizing thing
was never permitted to exist in any
town in all the world.
I have no tolerance for a blind tiger;
no respect for the dirty devil that will
buy their liquor, and contempt for
the dirty wholesale devils that slip it
into towns at the bid and call of blind
tigers. The wholesale liquor dealers of
Atlanta, Macon and Savannah are
pushing this battle upon the good peo
ple of all our dry tow.ni, until there will
be mutiny by and by. Already there
is the rumbling of warfare that means
the utter extermination of the tirffio in
Qeorgia.
There was bugle blast sounded by
the Anti-Saloon League of Atlanta this
week, and Just aa sure as Russia en
croached upon and insulted Japan,
and Jspan saw her very existence de
pended upon "her defending herself,
and the result is now open to all, so a
long-suffering people will rise np some
of these days, and that not long off,
and drive this traffic back to the hell
from whenoe it came. A dirty scoun
drel that will run a blind tiger will do
anything this side of perdition to feed
his greed and fill his pockets, and 99
per cent, of the dirty rascals who buy
blind tiger liquor will go into court
house and swear a lie as black as dam
nation about it, . and (he wholesale
liquor dealer who will ship whiskey
promiscuously into a dry town, not
knowing or caring whether it is for a
blind tiger or not, if as mean as the
rascal that sells it and as unreliable as
the scoundrels that buy it, The Aoti
saloon League cannot do a better or a
more practical thing than to search the
records of the internal revenue collector
and send to each mayor and council of
the dry towns of Georgia the names of
every person who has procured govern
ment or internal revenue licenses to sell
the stuff, and if onr legislature was a
tenth as loyal to the women and chil
dren of this state as they are to the
liquor traffic, they would give ns a
statute law in Georgia, as they have
other states which makes inter
nal revenue license prima facie
evidence that the fellow is selling the
liquor. "
There is but little need of a commu-
ity jumping on officials because blind
tigers exist, for, after all, everything is
up to and up against the people. They
can tolerate and foster blind tigers if
tbey want to; they can squelch them
and exterminate them if they want to,
and only the people of a community
can do this.
A Judge can do much; a twenty-five
dollar fine, ot a fifty dollar fine levied
on a blind tiger, is a farce, and if I was
judge of any judicial circuit and com
promised with any dirty blind tiger for
fifty-dollar fine, I would not do it but
once, and then I would resign in the
interest of law and order in my com
munity, Judge Jim Brown, I am told,
broke up blind timers ia Marietta more
than twenty years ago. I beard that
he sent one man to the cbaingang
three years, and another for a year,
and they served out their sentences
No man who is guilty of running a
blind tiger ought to have less than the
limit of the law, both in fine and im
prisonment It is no place of the jddgs
to hunt them, but once a jury oonvicta
a blind tiger, then the judge will omt
in as a force in the maintenance of law
and order, or he will show himself by a
small fine unworthy' of the position
which he holds.
Sometimes I am almori tempted to
go into the present race for governor
of this state on this issue alone, and if
I didn't demonstrate bQfacU and fig
ures, by logic and rhetoric, that Qeor
gia has suffered more from the liquor
traffic than from all other sources com
bined, I will take to the woods as "a
candidate limited." South Carolina,
county by county, is "spewing" oat
dispensaries. County by county the
twelve Southern states have closed the
saloons until almost three-fourths of

Dine brimstone in a community than
anything I know
Now, gentlemen, let's stop this blind
tiger business, and the liquor dealers of
Atlanta, Maoon, Savannah and other
soaking wet Georgia towns must keep
their blind tiger liquor or else they will
bring on a fight, and when that fight
ends the liquor dealers of Georgia will
be as completely out of a job as a ne
gro politician is on the day of a white
primary. Why can't we get the blind
tiger tangled ap,with the present gub
ernatorial race f We have got mighty
nigh everything else mixed up with it.

Big Slaaap Follows Cotlea Bepert,
New York, Oct 8 A large amount
of selling order had been placed In the
cotton market to go into effect if the
bureau reuort to-day made the condi-
tion 69 or better. Very few of the
most sanguine bears had expected a
condition better than that percent-
age. Consequently the government
eitimate of 712 per cent, was a great
surprise.
The largest firms of spot dealers and
the beaviest and most influential opera-
tors rallied to the support of the mar-
ket. The buying and heavy covering
by a heavy short who has been on the
bear side for the past two months, and
his following practically saved the mar-
ket, as the bulls had been caught too
heavily overloaded to render much sup-
port. The government's report caused
enormous selling from the Bouth ana
Liverpool, but the market was finally
steadied under a continuance of active
profit-taking by recent bears and by
some of the local and New Orleans bulls
later recovering their equilibrium.
To-day's low prices show a maximum
decline of 125 to 150 points from last
month's high level, which is equivalent
to between 16 and 17 50 per bale, and
are practically the lowest prices reached
since early last summer.
Pertralt of General Robert K. Lee.
Washington Post.
The fact that too frequently it tran
spires in American history that no sc.
curate and authentio portrait of her
great men is faithfully preserved has
caused a number of the devoted sd-
mirers of General B ber. E. Lee to in
terest themselves to cause a perfect pic
ture of the great General to be made,
and to be preserved for all future his
tory.
This work, after a lapse of forty year,
is now under way by the John A Lowell
Bank Note Company, of Boston, who
are using for this purpose the exact
photograph made at General Lee's resi
dence in Richmond a few days after the
surrender, which picture has always
been considered by the Lw family and
friends as the most perfect likness ever
taken of the General at that period.
The work, when finished, will be of
the highest art of steel engraving, so
that it will thus be preserved for all fa
ture time.

Ho New Trial for Tons Dewey.
Baleioh, Oct. 3. The Supreme
Court to-day handed down its opinion
in the case of Thomas W. Dewey, the
defaulting cashier of the Merchants'
and Farmers' Bank, of Newborn, deny
ing motion for a new trial.
Dewey was cashier of the bank and
was more familiar with the books,
bich were relied on to show his
changes and false entries therein and
his embezzlements. He and his able
counsel had full access to them in per
forming his defense, and in was further
in evidence that he fled the State and
was absent many months and that,
while so absent, he wrote a letter seek
ing to compromise matters and escape
criminal punishment in which he fully
admitted his guilt. This letter was a
part of the record. It will be recalled
that in the trial one of counsel for the
ata said that Dewey in this letter
thought to make the Almighty a part
in etcaping punishment for one's crime.

What New Yorkers Think of tke
South1 Apples.
People can better be convinced of
conditions, if they are brought into
touch with the material results growing
out of them. The Land and Industrial
Department if the Southern Railway,
raalizing this, has been exhibiting for
several weeks at Farrs in the Northern
and Western Slates a collection of
products from the territory traversed by
its lines. These exhibits have attracted
marked attention, and have been the
means of informing thousands of peo
ple of the opportunities offered by the
South to the farmer, stock-raiser, man
ufacturer, etc. Printed matter descrip
tive of landostnd business openings of
all kinds along the Southern Railway
has been distributed from these exhibits
among people earnestly seeking infor
mation concerning the resources of the
South and the advantages offered
AmoEg the various products displayed
were some fine specimens of apples, the
superiority of wbioh is shown by the
the following:
New York State Fair,
Syracuse, N. Y.
In recognition of the fact that the
apples exhibited by Mr. J. E. Hall, of
Waynesville, N. C, and The Stuart
Orchard Company, Stuart, Va., in the
Southern Railway exhibit arrived too
late to enter for award, we wish to ex
press the opinion that these apples are
the finest specimens exhibited at the
New York State Fair, and had they
been properly entered, would have re
ceived highest award,
H. 8. Wiley,
Albert Wood,
September 14th, 1905.
To appreciate the force of the above,
it should be borne in mind that the re
gion surrounding Syracuse is one of the
oldest and most important apple pro
ducing lections in the United States.
