Itbeobtsrrer of Uyi story of Km
man wJUo gateli of Wi friend# to
?uhltoi ImiwmU/iq perfect-)
intA imrpetnal motion machine.
| The jbmw tt?de gmt promise*
end hopes ran high Fiuelly the
inventor celled the investors in
end displayed bis contrivance.
"Friends," said be, 'Miere is
tbe perpetual motion machine,
something that iias been sought
for in vain through all ages.
No one hut a knave or a fool will
deny that a perpetual motion
machine is what we all ueed'to
remove all the cares and worries
of lite. Uowcver, yoa cauuot
expect absolute .perfection on
this earth, and iu frankness I
am going to tell yon that there
is but one little flaw in my ma*
chine. I shall leave it to you to
remove Uiat flaw. The only
thing this machine needs is
something to keep the wheels iu
motion."
- The ouly thing that prevents
prohibition from prohibiting in
Georgia is the 6sle and use of
liquor in Georgia. Aside from
this defect it would be captiously
critical to poiut out any ad
ditioual Haws.
The prohibitionists admit that
prohibition is not preventing the
use of an enormous amount of
liquor.
"But give itaclianee," they
say, 'tit will come out alright in
the long run."
This "long run" talk, in view
of the actual conditions, puts
oue in mind of the farmer who
yoked himself up with a calf.
The calf weut bucking and bawl
ing down a steep hillside, and
the man said earnestly to the
calf; "If something don't stop
us, we'll break our ding necks."
Here are official figures show
ing the rule at which Augusta
and inhibition are ruiinlng
down hill, as proven by the num
ber of arrests for drunkeuness:
1906?January, 19b; February,
214; Murch, 260.
1907?January, 227; February,
241, Murch, 318.
1908?January, 167; February,
178, March, 190.
1909?January, 217; February,
242; March, 323.
Iu 1908, when prohibition was
new, there was a falling off in
the number of drunks, but in
1909 the condiiions are almost
exactly the same us they were in
1907.
Before prohibition wont into
effect there were 100 licensed
saloons in Augusta, There are
now sixty oue near beer places.
It is clear, therefore, that Au
gusta is iu the same fix with
sixty one prohibition joints us
site wus with 100 licensed sa
loons.
But the near beer places, are
not to be held responsible for all
of drunkenness iu Augusta?not
by a large part of a little blown
jug full.
Seeking expert testimony, this
writer asked of a negro hack
driver:
'?How does prohibition a fleet
the people?"
The negro grinned and made
a remark that is well worth the
consideration of frieuds of the
black man:
"Boss de white folks is do 11
made walkiu' saloons out of de
niggers?but some of us drives."
Business men are almost unani
mous in the statement that it is
now much harder to get de
pendable negro labor than it was
before the prohibitiou law Weut
into effect.
MHow can I expect a negro to
work for me for *7 or #8 a weok
when he can make $7 or ** a
day selling boose?" asked one.
The fact is that prohibition
hns created a special place for
the negro boot.legger. The
negro caters to the trausieut
trade and to the wants of those
to whom the near bear houses
are afraid to sell.
IJeul beer is sold opgoly, but
in Georgia the stranger must
rely mainly on the negro for
whiskey. Residents can get
fljytiling they want if tlioy are
regarded as "safe," but the
trausieut is looked upon with
distrust and he must have the
jpatfjrojtf, or at ll>e "hi#h
bty from tb* booi j
!?X|?)r* faMMM tbej cannot ob
ttoki wMtkti.Mftirale. from (bt
qmt Jbaer MUbHihaeoU. The
draokuds patronise lb* boot
logger beoMM fie can mII them
so-called whiskey by the drink
for a oickle.
It is no exaggeration to suy
that Georgia is sick and tired of
prohibition. There is a strong
and wide-spread sentiment in
favor of discarding orohibitlon
and adopting a system of rfjtrt
latiou that will curtail the ubust#s
that prevail. ?
It is generally believed thai
the Legislature, which meets in
Juue. will tuftke radical chanjres
in the law. .
A return to the saloon system
as it existed before the prohi
bitiou law weut into effect is uot
expected. But it is believed
that a majority of the Legisln
ture, House and Senate are in
favor of a measure permitting
the legal sale of ulcoholic bever
ages in origiual^ packages and
permitting the sale of liquor
with meals at bona fide hotels.
Mother's Little Darling.
The following story was told
me the other day. I do uot tell
it for the truth, but give it be
| cause it is a good one:
"A Northern gentleman, his
wifeanfl three year old boy were
visiting in South Georgia; it was
their first night in that section.
| The mother hud just put the little
oue to bed. ?Now, go right to
sleep, darlings Don't be afraid,
for the angels are watching over
you.' In ubout an hoar the lit
tie one called out: 'Mama!'
Yus, darling, what is it?" 'The
angels are biliug me!'"?Elber

"Tlio Florida Blossoms."
"The Florida Blossoms", a
colored minstrel show, played
hero oil Saturday night. We ut?
tended the perforin,nice, and
talce pleasure in saying that we
havo ilever witnessed anything
in the way of a minstrel show
that pleased us better. The
music by the brass bifnd was ex
cellent; the orchestra will corn
paro favorably with that in al
most any theatre;- the singing
was above the average by bolli
male nnd female voices, and the
dancing wis really fine. A pe
culiarity of the performance
given by this troupe was the
abyenco of negro dialect. Very
little of this was indulged in.
The several little hits by the
end men were directed entirely
towards the colored rnce, and
every hit provolcod broad smiles
or shouts of laughter. The show
was an absolutely clean one, the
dancing by the girl? being in the
minds of many, modest to a fault.

Dean's Kiddey Pills cure the cause
of disease, and that is why llio cures
lire always lasting. This remedy
strengthens and tones up the kidneys,
helping them to drive out of the body
the liquid poisons that cause backache,
headache ami distressing kidney and
uritiarv complaints. Ca::u!en people
testify to permanent cures.
H. T. Gladden, Market Street,
Camden, S. C.} says: "I had
kidney trouble , for two years.
My kidneys were weak and
there was a constant desire to
void the secretions, this being
especially bothersome at night.
I also suffered from dull pains in
my bucic and 1 could not move
around without enduring misery,
I used'remedy after remedy but
received no relief, until recently
I was advised to try Doat/s
Kidney Pills and 1 procured a
box at Jump's drug store. They
benefitted me so greatly that
I continued their use until the
backache had disappeared. My
kidneys were stronger and my
general health was improved."
