SMALL COTTON CROP Commits.
sioner o. B. Stevens, of the Georgia de-
partment of agriculture, has complied
statistics indicating that the cotton
crop of Georgia for 1900 will be from
so, 900 to 100000 bales shorter than in
1899. Commissioner Stevens, as pres,
ident of the Cotton States Commission.
ers' association, receives reports from
commissioners of the different states,
and says they are to the effect that the
south as whole is short. Indications
on the 1st of August were that every
state in the cotton belt would be be-
hind on the staple with the exception
of Texas, reported to be 2 per cent.
ahead of the average crop of the last
five years.
The figures prepared by the depart
ment show that in Georgia an average
crop for the last five years is 81, 1885,
900 bales.
The reports from the counties OF
Georgia are that "a per cent. of an av-
erage crop will be realized. Twenty
six per ceut. off the average crop gives
958, 1892 bales for the year, against an
estimated crop for 1899 of between
1 100000 and 100000.
1t is further estimated from the re-
ports in the hands of the commissioner
that the cotton acreage is 8 per cent.
less than in 1899.

PROHIBITION.

In the proper use of whiskey, there
is no harm.
Among each thousand who use
whiskey at all, there is possibly one
who uses it properly.
The improper use of whiskey is a
crime first against the user himself
and second against those with whom
the user associates.
The crime is against morality, and
therefore, against God, for God sane
tions nothing that is immoral.
The statutes of man can legalize
vice but they cannot make virtue
of it. Liquor selling can be made
lawful; but it cannot be made right.
If it is wrong for an individual to
sell liquor-and it is-it is wrong fol-
the state to sell it. If it is wrong fol
the State to sell it, it is wrong for an
individual to sell it. If the state has
no moral right to sell liquor it cannot
confer that moral right upon an indi
vidual.
Unless he gives his sympathy and
moral support, one individual is moi
responsible for the wrong committed
by another individual.
Liquor selling being wrong, there is
no more wrong in the legal sale than
there is in the illegal sale.
The man who, by his vote, opposes
the legal sale of whiskey, also con
demns the illegal sale of wbiskey, and
provided he patronizes neither the
legal or illegal sale, at one and the
same time he divests himself of res
possibility for either. If he votes
for legal sale, he endorses the mora
right of illegal sale.
The fact that prohibition does moi
prohibit, is a matter of no concern to
the sincere prohibitionist. Whether
prohibition prohibits or not it certainly
discourages the consumption of liquor
Lawabiding people cannot find
means of breaking up lawful business
however pernicious; but they will
always find the law effective in break,
ing up an unlawful business. Because
the moral right of the blind tiger to
sell whiskey is as great as that of the
state, it is next to impossible for the
state to punish the blind tiger for do
ing that of which it is guilty itself.
The state has no right to seek rev.
enue from the debauchery of its citi-
zens.
Admission of the right of the state
