Atlanta's Battle. .

The great Prohibition Battle of
Atlanta, that will become histori-
cal, will be fought to the issue to-
day.
No such contest between the
Home and the Saloon was ever be-
fore known. Atlanta is the
very Gibralter of the Liquor Traffic
of Georgia and the entire South,
and the siege to this stronghold by
the Prohibitionists was as bold in
its conception as it has been SUBJ
lime and courageous in its pro-
gress. Intense excitement has
prevailed throughout this leading
Southern city, and the whole State
of Georgia especially shares in this
thrilling interest and anxiety for
the result.
1t is conceded by the liquor men
that as goes Atlanta, 30 goes Geor-
gia, and that Prohibition victory
here to-day, means victory in other
cities tomorrow, and throws the
entire South open to the unob-
structed march of the cold water
army.
May the countless prayers that
are ascending and the many cries
of anguish that 60 up from broken
hearts, be this day joyously answer
ed with a glorious triumph of the
Home in Atlanta.

An Improved Steel Process.

P1TTsBURG, PAN improve
ment has been made on the BESSIE
mer steel process at the Edgar
Thomson Steel Works which, it is
said, will have the effect of max
ing Bessemer steel equal in quality
to crucible steel, while it will cost
only about ene-tenth of the price.
The change consists in thorough
mixing of spiegel iron, or mangan-
ese, with molten iron in ladle, 30
as to uniformly carbonize it. Bes-
semer steel can be produced at a
cost of cent to cent and a-half
per pound, while that made in cru
cibles costs at least eleven cents
per pound.

Never Go Backward.
The New York Post says:

The New York Post says:
whether Atlanta shall vote tor or
against prohibition is a matter which
concerns Atlanta, but the whole
country is interested when it finds
that a canvass on any public ques-
ton in Southern city can play
such havoc with the race line. 1t
is the first step which counts, and
the whites have taken this step in
the present canvass. It will only
be a step further for rival white
leaders to seek colored support in a
purely political contest, and some
of them will be sure to take it the
next time an election GENES on. 1t
is true that the whites who are now
seeking negro votes insist that this
is not political question, and that
when such q destion comes up,
things will 60 back to their former
condition. But they forget that
revolutions never move backward"
We are rejoiced to know that
leading political journals are be-
gining to see omens of good in the
Prohibition movement. If we have
indeed found the true solution of
the race question, happy are we.
Let there be q grand united rally
around the white flag of Prohibi-
ton, and away goes all color, and
race and party ties, and all the peo-
pie will say, AMEN

THE OLD DOCTORS STORY.

81 have Il little story to tell you,
boys" the old doctor said to the young
people the other evening. "One day
a long, hot day it had been, tool met
my father on the way to town.
81 wish you would take this package
to the village for me, Jim, he said hes
itating
Nov, | was boy of twelve, not
fond of work, and just out of the hay
field, where | had been at work since
daybreak. | was tired, dusty and
hungry. 1t was two miles into town.
WANTED to get my supper, and to wash
and dress for singing school.
MY first impulse was to refuse, and
to do it harShly, for was vexed that
he should ask me after my long days
work. If | did refuse, he would go
himself He was gentle, patient old
man. But something stopped me; one
of Gods good angels, think.
'.'Of course, father, I'll take it, l
said heartily, giving my scythe to one
of the men, He gave ME the package.
Thank you, Jim, he said; L was
going myself, but somehow | don't feel
very strong to-day.
He walked with me to the road
that turned off to the town; as he left
hes put his hand on my arm, saying
again, Thank you my son; you've al
ways been good boy to me, Jim
Il hurried into town and back again.
when | came near the house l saw
a crowd of farm hands at the door. One
of them came to me, the tears rolling
down his face.
"'Your father he said, fell dead
just as he reached the house. The last
words he spoke We're to YOU
I'm an old man now; but | have
thanked God over and over again in all
the years that have passed since that
hour that those last words were, You
have always been good boy to me-"
No human being ever yet was sorry
for love or kindness shown to others.
But there is no pang of remorse so
keen as the bitterness with which we
remember neglect or coldness which
we have shown to loved ones who are
dead.
Do not begrudge loving deeds and
kind words, especially to those who
gather with you about the same hearth.
In many families a habit of nagging,
crossness, or illnatured gliding, gradu-
ally covers the feeling of love that lies
deep beneath.
And after all it is such little way that
We can go together.-Baptist Weekly
Bridgeton pioneer., 1885-10-01
DRIVING BOYS FROM HOME.

Mothers who are disturbed by the
noise and untidiness of boys at home
must be careful lest by their reproaches
they drive their children from home
insearch fpleasure elsewhere ''There
are those banisters all finger marked
again." said Mrs Cary, as she made
haste with a soft linen cloth to polish
down the shining oak again.
George" she said with a flushed
face, as she gave the cloth a decided
wrench out of the basin of suds, ''if
you go up those stairs again before
bed time you shall be punished" Il
should like to know where am to go?'
said George. Il cannot stay in the
