wRrsKEY is THE CAUSE

Stop and think Of every stabbipg
affray and murder committed in Ma
rietta and Cobb county, before and
since the war, and you will be cons
WINGED that whiskey was the cause
in nearly every instance. Yes,
whiskey, that damnable fluid that
steals mans brains aud makes him
in the sight of the law an ''u"reas-
enable" man, irresponsible for his
acts, has committed all the murders
and filed our courts with crime and
taxed the people heavily to pay the
expenses of trial. Yet talk to men
why they license men to sell whisky
and they say to get revenue. My
God. think of men being legalized to
fill our jalls and courts with crlm'-
mails, to make wives widows, children
orphans, erecting gibbets, supplying
the chain, gang, and filling the land
with misery and woe, tears and shat'
tered hearts If you would stop
murders and lessen taxation, vote no
license, prohibit the sale of intoxI'
Giants.

which one may reckon that the risks

pense into industrial schools and
penitentiaries, than are vicious
homes in the rich districts TO pre-
pare iudulgent or neglected children
for later career OF infamy. The
heel-taps swallowed by prohigate' S
son after his fathers debauch at ia
bic, aad the sips Of gin stolen by a
gutter-snpe from his drunken moths
er's Jug, alike beget the thirst for
stimulants which leads the young
straight to saloons and rum holes. -
From saloons and rum holes to
brothels, low dance>houses, faro
dens, keno cellars, thieves haunts,
and rat>pits in an easy descent.
Eight thousand places are licens'
ed for the sale of liquors. Most Of
them dispense the vilest poisons.-
Many are muoic-halis, worse than
the old Broadway concert-saIoons'
and frequented by the same class OF
scapegrac. who were ruined in
those gliitering dens. To some are
attached small gambling rooms,
where scores Of habi;ual criminal.
and Migrants gather nightly to prey
upon one another. and coDcoct al
manner Of doyiI,ries. 4: night the
windows of these places have the
fascination Of basilisks eyes to thou
sands upon thousands OF the restless,
thirsty, Disconnected poor. Some
have money to buy a pint or a glass
of the stuff in bottles labelled before
them, but can lily afford 1t. Others
have not enough to pay for a nights
lodging. Upon this multitude de-
scends the terrible temptation to
steal that they may driuk-that they
may buy an hour or two Of blind
forgctfulness. Every days arrests
show part Of the direct results Of
this temptation. If Mayhew's esti-
mate be correct, that Intoxicating
liquors are an agent in three-four,hs
of the crimes committed in large
cities, then the effects Of bad liquor
and of longing for bad liquor in New
York City are, according to the
police statistics, something fearful.
