Cocaine Must Go.
At the last meeting of the Council
the Mayor called attention to the
fact that the habit of using cocaine
by the negroes and many of the poorer
white people was growing to
an alarming extent, whereupon the
Council instructed the Mayor to appoint
acommittee to draft an ordinance
to prohibit the sale and use of
this drug as far as possible. The
Mayor appointed the following committee:
V. E. DePass, G. C. Perrin
and "W. E. G. Humphries.
You should be surprised to know
how many people here use this drug.
The sale of it should be prohibited
exoept upon a prescription from a
physician.
