and the Southland to-day. Every
saloon and bar-room in the
great Empire State were closed last
night never to open again in that ,
State. We believe that Georgia will j
set an example for other States to
follow. We believe that she wiil enforce
the prohibition law with such
force as to command^ the. favorable
consideration of every State in this
great country of ours. |
