The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1888-04-11

a movement has been inaugurated in
Maine to secure the repeal of the prohibi-
tory LIQUOR law which has been in force in
that State many years 1t is claimed that
1t does not prohibit. If it does not it seems
rather curious that those who favor dram
shops should make such extraordinary
efforts for its repeal If they get all the
whisky they want they ought to be satisfied.
They have no strong reason for wanting
the law repealed.
The truth probably is that the law does
restrain the sale OF strong drink to a certain
extent. 1t is effective in all localities where
public sentiment is against the sale OF in
toxicating liquors, but not where public
sentiment Is indifferent or favorable to the
sale of such liquors.
There is no doubt that local option is the
best method for securing prohibition. The
adoption Of a general prohibitory law is
not wise, because the law cannot be enforced
where the majority are against It, and if it
is not generally enforced the impression
goes abroad that prohibition is not effective.
Under local option prohibition is adopted
only where the majority demand 1t, and
then it is always enforced
There is no doubt that local option has
done vast amount Of good in this State.
The testimony in behalf of it is strong and
convincing. 1t is doubtful if county can
be found outside of the large cities, where
prohibition has been adopted that has not
been largely benefited. County towns in
which. few years ago, there was neither
thrift, prosperity nor contentment, have,
under prohibition influences, become thriv-
ing, growing places, showing unmistaka-
BILE evidences in their pretty homes and cul-
tivated gardens that their people are pros
porous and happy. On the plantations and
turpentlne farms and in the lumber dis
tricts in which prohibition has been adopted
there has been marked change for the
better in the condition of labor
A prominent Savannah cotton factor said
recently, that in the earlier years of his
business career he advanced money regu-
larry every season to fifty or sixty farmers
who all lived in the same section of the
State They were always in debt to him.
and apparently had a pretty hard time to
make living, and that not a very good
one. About all of them spent great deal
of money for strong drink whenever they
came to this city or went to their county
town. Their lab)rers also spent a large
share of their earnings for whisky. They
were not drunkards, of course, but
their heads were not always as clear as the
heads Of successful farmers should be- A
few years ago a strong temperance agita-
ton was started in their locality and pro-
hibition was adopted. The result has been
wonderful. The fly or sixty farmers still
do business with the cotton factor in ques-
ton, but he does not make advances now
to more than half dozen of them They
don't need advances. They are out of debt
and pay cash for what they want. They
are prosperous aud are7getting rich. They
do not hesitate TO attribute their prosperity
10 prohibition. In the face of this striking
illustration of the benefits of prohibition
who will say that it does not prohibit

Gentleman Jim.
Daniel O'ConneH.


In the diamond shaft worked Gentleman Jim,
Handsome of face and stout of limb,
Coarse in dress but something in him,
Whether down in the coal mine, solid and grim,
Or wandering alone in holiday time,
Won the love and respect of all 10 that cline.
He had no sweetheart, he had no wife,
Some mighty sorrow had dmmed his life
His earnings hardly won, and small,
Were aye at the orphans and widows call
OF those who had persisted in shaft or Wine.
He was the friend of all living things,
And moving along in those toisome ways,
He wore the demeanor of gentler days.
In April last when the mine fell in,
Beneath the timbers stood Gentleman Jim;
With giant grasp he flung two of the boys
Clear of the danger-with deafening noise
The shaft gave way on every side;
The boys were safe, but Jimmie died;
Died as men die and will die again,
Giving their lives for their fellow-men.
When rocks aud timbers were cleared away.
Aud Jim DO ne up to the light Of day,
They took from his bosom stained with blood,
Two withered leaves and withered bud
Pinned on a card-"TOUte a tOi-Marie,"
Was written beneath them; beneath 1t he
ON this relic his heart for years had worm
Had written: "All witheled-eXcept the thorn."
What life romance, what story of wrong,
This man had locked up in his soul 30 long,
None who loved him MAJ ever know
But the tale of his glorious, chivalric deed
Shall not perish as long as men hold this creed
That the hero whose blood for his kind is shed
Wins a deGthless fame and an honored bed
A monument grander than sculptor ere gave,
In the glory that hallows the martyrs grave.

Mr.. Norwood's Statement.

Representative NorwoOd's statement of
the reasons why the River and Harbor
Committee refused 10 make a more liberal
appropriation for savannah harbor shows
that the committee has not studied the pres
ent condition of the harbor improvement
In the last river and harbor bill $3.50, 600
was appropriated 10 complete the 22-foot
Improvement For the present year $3.50,
600 was asked to complete it, and 800, 900 is
appropriated to continue it, How long
does Congress propose to continue this i'm
provement which ought to be completed
within a year, and which could easily be
completed within that time if the whole
amount asked for were Appropriated We
have already stated, and state again
on the authority of the engineer
in charge of it, that no progress
toward completing it can be made with an
appropriation of 800 600 1t will require
all of that to cut out the shoals which have
been formed since the work on the improve
ment was suspended over year ago, and to
maintain the channel at its present depth
If the improvement were completed the
present depth could be maintained without
artificial aid, but it cannot be completed in
years if the policy of appropriating only
half the amount asked for is continued
The engineer cannot ask for larger ap-
preparation, because he only needs the sum
asked for to complete the work. The i'm
provement has reached that point where
the entire amount needed must be appro-
priated in a lump, or else the improve
ment will remain unfinished, and many
times as much as is required to finish it will
he wasted upon it. If Representative Nor
wood were to impress upon the committee
that the 800, 600 in the bill will be virtually
wasted, and that if that amount is appro-
priated next year and the following year it
Will also be wasted, but that the improve
ment can be completed within a year for
the amount called for by the engineers
estimates, it would seem as if it could hard
ly refuse to grant the required increase.
The way to save money is to double the
appropriation. The way to waste money,
and at the same time burden Savannah's
commerce to the extent of hundreds of
thousands of dollars, is to keep on making
little appropriations which will not permit
the improvement to be completed.
