The SPECIAL Option Law.

In compliance with the petition of n
number of citizens Of the Lodgton and
Fulton precincts, we publish in tluis--is-
sue, the special local option law to be
voted on in this county, Saturday, July
18th. The Importance of this question
demands that each and every voter should
calmly, and deliberately read for himself,
the law, and thoughtfGlly consider It's
workings if put in practical operation.
The question TO be voted on is not, wheth-
er intemperance shall be put down or dis
Outraged, because we take ii all good
men are opposed to intemperanee, but
whether Ie new law is the way to accom-
pIish tho Work, and whether the general
good of society and the State will be bet
ter subserved by the proposed law than
under the license system. Hence, we
conclude the intelligent voter will want
to view the question in all its bearings,
and with their verdict the friends and
opponents Will yield obedience. The
COURIER does not wish TO discuss the
question 'editorially, and probably will
not, unless provoked into it for self jUsti-
fcation.
SThe 9th Sec. of this act reads, as will
be seen by reference to it in another
column:
That lao election under this act shall
be held until the same shall be thrice pub
efshed in a newspaper having the largest
fcirculat ion in Fulton county, for three
several weeks Immediately preceding said
election"
1t will be seen that the Sherif's lega
notice Of the election, is given in this is
sue, but thinking it nothing but fair that
the act itself should be published, SO that
all may understand the precise wording
and nature of the law they are to vote
upon, we comply with the request of our
friends of the Lodgtou and Fulton pre-
eincts, and publish the law IL full, sug-
costing TO those Of our readers who feel
sufficient interest in this question TO re-
tain this copy SO as to vote understand
ingly.
