Local Option in the South.

We have frequently shown, there is 4
strong temperance wave sweeping through
the South just now IS through the West
aud North. The prohibition question
does not force itself 50 prominently for
ward in State or national politics here as
in the Western States, because prohibi-
tion is seldom made State Issue. In
this section the system Of local option al
most universally prevails, and county
or portion Of \ county instead of an en-
tire State votes for or against license.
Such system presents its adYanf&sss
over the broad and stringent anti-liquor
law passed blythe Legislature in Maine,
Iowa and elsewhere, in that 1t allows ev-
cry community to pass on the liquor
question.
A big step was taken in the direction of
local option last week by the passage Of
the lower house Of the Georgia Legisla-
ture of very stringent local option law.
There was very warm fight against it,
yet it passed by a vote ef five to one, and
there seems no reason to doubt its ulti-
mately becoming law.
The Georgia bill is more Of an from
clad one than most of the local option
laws in force in the South. An election
can be held every two years on the ques-
tion Of license or no license. II the coun-
ty votes in favor of license, another elec-
tion can be held in two years, and still
another and another; bur whenever 1t has
voted for prohibition, that ends the mat
ter-there are no mors elections on this
point. III other words, every victory of
the liquor interests is no victory at all;
but one of the prohibifionists is decisive.
These constant elections win worry and
finally tire out the liquor men. They
must always be on the defensive, always
on the alert, for single reverse means an
nihilati0n. Iu the course OF time under
such a system as this, the number Of pro-
hibition counties will grow greater aud
greater each year, until the whole State,
or very near all Of it is pledged against
liquor.
As it is this work is going rapidly on.
In Louisiana, Texas and other Southern
States scarcely day passes without some
election Of this kind, the voting of coun-
ty or district on the subject Of licensing
liquor. There are defeats and victories
for both parties, but it cannot be denied
that the prohibitlonists win the greater
nuber Of victories and are continually
winning new districts to their ranks

STATE POLITICS.

and policy. 1t will not do to cloak
political sins with the mantle of a
.discreetsilence. Newspapers should
not be echoing followers of public
opinion, but should lead it, and
give it tone and direction.
To rad ourselves of the accursed
domination of an ignorant and dis
honest horde We were fully justi-
fed in employing any and every
means in our power. Under SIM
liar conditions we would be justi-
fed to-day in repeating the meas
ures of past years. The situation
required the surgeons knife, aud
we freely used it..

treatment is at an end. We arc

BOASSO'S CRIME.

Now that Aid-to-the-C -Chief-of-
Police Boasso is out of danger and
on fair way to recovery, it is
time to consider what steps should
be taken to punish him for the
criminal act which caused his shoot
ing. We quite agree with our con-
temporaries that justice, and Sc
we're justice, should be meted out
to him. The fact that he held a
high position; that he himself, ap-
pointed to preserve the peace and
vindicate the law was its violator,
is the very best of reasons why he
should be punished. The matter,
we understand, has been laid be-
fore the grand jury, which body,
it is to be hoped, will find some
statute covering the crime by which
Boasso accomplished the rum of
Miss kuhne.
A crime committed by public
officer, and particularly by apolice
officer, cannot be too severely pun
ished. 1t was this that made the
sentiment against the Fords SO
strong; it is this that should award
Boasso heavy punishment.
Since the shooting a great many
facts have come out about Boasso
which show that he was i'll suited
to the position he held. To pre-
vent mistakes of this kind in fu-
ture it would be we'll to have some
little overhauling of our entire po-
lice force, so that the bad members
can be weeded out. That there
are bad members on it comes out
every day by the discovery of some
act of outrage in an officer. The
case of Officer Kenny is one in
point. He stood by and watched
Boasso beat young Kuhn because
the latter's sister had been sedu-
ced, never made the slightest at
tempt to interfere in behalf os the
victim, but finally arrested him at
Boasso's order for disturbing the
peace-that is, being beaten by
Boasso.
Officers of this kind are discov-
cred every now and then, and sus-
pended or removed; but it is
scarcely wise to wait for their COM
mission of a crime or outrage in
order to discover that these officers
are bad. It would be far better to
make the discovery in advance and
prevent the crime. A general
overhauiing of the police, and a
study of their records, would show
not a few men unsuited to the po-
sition of peace officers. Boasso is
q case in point. Let us SEQ that
there are no other Baosso's on the
force ready to break out like him
on the first favorable opportuni-
ty.-T-D.
