Only 10000 Worth
In Six Short Months
Did You Help Pay for the
Horse and Buggy?

One of Fitzgerald S citizens has
just been presented with a fine
horse, carriage and harness from
a wholesale whiskey house In
Savannah for having purchased
from them the past six months
$4,000 worth of whiskey, and
this is only one of seven, and
says nothing about what this
man bought from other firms.
How much bread aud meat did
that horse and buggy cost the
wives and children of the men
who drank the whiskey? would
think that the driver would hear
the means aud cries of those des-
titute ones from beneath the
hoofs of that horse. Where is
the candidate for governor OF
Georgia that will relieve us of
this curse?-Lumber City News.

Out of the appalling disaster.
of the San Francisco earthquake,
things have been revealed,
wrought and done beyond price.
The world, for a short space,
paused and listened to the divine
voice within. Love and sympa.
thy filled the hearts of men.
What an out pouring there was!
Everybody doing something to
help, not in this land alone but
all over the world. How prec-
ious is this relation of a loving,
noble human brotherhood! The
heroism of the people facing
such a great disaster, having
lost everything, yet bearing 80
Observation-Disclosures and help
fulness distinguished their acts.
These precious things the earth
quake and the fire revealed, but
could not destroy. They are
more to be priced than all the
earthly treasures destroyed.
They were but hay and stubble;
these virtues and graces are the
pure gold which the fire only
purified. This great disaster
has also preached a mighty tenn
perance sermon.
1t shows what a great reforma-
ton can take place when the
saloons of a wicked, immoral city
are kept closed. Crime almost
has ceased in San Francisco.
This great object lesson should
be made much of by our temper
ance leaders and speakers.
The mayor, who was elected
to Office by the saloon element,
still continues the edict to keep
the saloons closed. Following
is his order:
ITO permit a resumption of
liquor selling at this time would
be to undo much OF the excellent
work that has been done for the
preservation of order. If intoxi-
eating drinks were either to be
purchased or obtained free, not
only the people of this city might
lose some of the pleidity of mind
that has sustained them through
their terrible trial, but the sol
diers and the firemen and others
upon whom the very life of the
city now depends would have
temptation thrust in their way
that might prove ruinous to us
all. These are my reasons for
insisting that San Francisco
shall continue to be a dry town
for some time to come. "-Temple
