RAILROADS DISLIKE PLAN.
May Refuse States Proposition to Build
Atlanta Depot.

There is an apparently well founded
report current in Atlanta that the rail-
roads entering that city will refuse to
accept the states proposal with refer
ence to occupyin the new depot propos-
ed to be built on the states property.
1t is believed that the main opposition
will come from the Southern. If the
roads should refuse, under the law the
the depot cannot be built. The first
thing taken up by the commission at
it's first meeting on Jan. 6 will be the
correspondence with the railroads to
ascertain what they propose to do.
Unless affirmative answerers are re-
ceived: the com mission cannot proceed
with it's work.

SAM JONES TO Mr.. STEVENS.
The Commissioners Book Is Very Highly
COmpIimented.

Since the publication Of the vol
ume, Georgia: Historical and Indus
trial" by the state agricultural de-
partment, Commissioner Stevens has
received number of very compli-
mentarJ letters in regard to the book
from prominent people all over Geor-
gia. That the work is in popular de-
mand is abundantly demonstrated by
the fact that nearly all requests for
copies are accompanied by the neces-
sary amount to pay postage or express
age. Because the book is bound in
cloth it cannot be sent through the
mails at the 1-cent pound rate.
There are large number OF appiica-
tions now on file at the agricultural de-
partment for copies, and these Will De
sent as early as possible.
Commissioners Stevens has received
the following from Rev. Sam Jones in
regard to the volume:

TESTIMONY OF A PROHIBlTIONIsT.

Evidence is accommodating that
Terrell county has found in the dis
pensary solution of the whiskey
question.
In commenting upon the repeal
by the recent Legislature of the act
under which dispensaries Lave been
Operated in Mitchell county and the
return of that county to prohibition
the South Georgia Home, published
at Pelham, says:
"The Pelham dispensary will have
to close it's doors very soon. There
is no dispensary law now, and of course
there can be no dispensary.
"A pertinent questison to ask just
now is: Will the prohibitionists OF
Pelham allow blind tigers to take the
place of and become greater curse
than the dlspensary, or will they take
the necessary steps RIGHT NOW to
prevent their coming?
aLet your mind revert back few
months to the time when the doors OF
the dispensary we're closed for little
season.
think of the blind tirers that did a
regular "land Office" business at all
hours
Think OF the lawlessness that pre-
vailed to mock legal auth rity and de-
fly justice"
The South Georgia Home is an
ultra advocate of prohibition. 1t
has stood for it in season and out
of season, and its testimony that the
blind tigers do not thrive where
there are dispensaries is an encour-
aging indication that the people
will yet meet on conservative
ground in the settlement of a vexa-
tious problem.
A regulation of the traffic which
lessons the consumption Of whlskey
and it's attendant evils is infinitely
preferable to unprohibitive pro-
hibition.
