WAR on The PISTOL.

Line 90 Stamp Out the Pistol
IOfcr-4 Strong Editorial,
FROM the atlanta EUuruai,f
DOWN THE PISTOL
AND SAVE THE NATION

We clip the following from the
Atlanta Journal regarding the pistol
toting habit which is pertinent and
to the point. 1t is true that a
healthy sentiment has at last been
aroused against this evil, and the
effect of cur new law IS very cncour
aging results so far. Let the good
work 60 on and hundreds of lives
will be saved.
There are in many parts of Georgia
evidences Of rising determination
to suppress the vicious habit of carry,
ing concealed weapons.
We have observed recently that
superior court judges in their char
ges to grand juries have laid great
stress upon the necessity ofa Strict
enforcement of the law on this subject
and the fact that such an enforcement
is impossible unless grand iuries
do their duty.
Up to a somewhat recent date the
carrying of pistols and other con-
cealed weapons was regarded By the
average citizen as comparatively
trivial otlense and there was little
disposition, either to find indictments
on this account or to press them
when found. But there has been q
wonderful and a most wholesome
change in public opinion relative to
the concealed weapon habit.
Grand jurors have begun to
realize Their duty in the matter and
are doing it in a manner that con-
trasts finely with their former indif-
ference.
The other officers of the Jaw gen
orally have moved forward quite as
notably in an organized and sys.
tematic effort to oeiiminate the loaded
pistol pocket.
Judge of superior, county and city
courts, solicitors general and local
police officers have joined forces and
are cooperating to make that law
terror to the pistol toter" and all
other bearers of concealed weapons.
1t was high time that this reform
shonld begin and it should be carried
on until in every county Of Georgia
any man whose nature or habit would
impel him to log pistol With him
wherver ne goes will he afraid to do
so. 1t goes without saying that the
habitual pistol toter" is bad
citizen, as he persistently violates
and delies the law.
Such a fellow should be made
scacre in every community that is
cursed by MS presence. There is nc
telling how much of the violence and

WHY so ANXIOUS.

Why is it that Admiral Schley and
Gen. Miles are so anxious to have 1t
understood that they are not in poll
tics? While in Chicago Admiral
Schley took occasion three times to
say that he was not a candidate for a
nomination to any Office. He seemed
to be extremely anxious that it should
be understood that he was not seeking
to make himself popular with the hope
of being made the leader of political
party.
Recently George F. Washburn of
Boston wrote to Gen. Miles, and asked
him if he (Miles) was at liberty to dis
claim the announcement that he was a
candidate for the presidency. In re-
ply the General said that he had not
been and would not be a seeker for a
presidential nomination.
If there are those who have been dis
turbed by the talk of Schley and Miles
as presidential possibilities they ought
not to let that talk keep them any
longer from enjoying life. There was
never a serious probability that either
would be chosen a presidential candi-
date, and now that each has announced
that he is not in politics it is probable
that both will be permitted to pursue
the even tenor of their respective ways
without further annoyance from those
who are afraid the General and the
Admiral will be dragged into the politi-
cal arena.
