CITIZENS INTERVIEWED.
Business Men of Dawson Unquali-
ffedly Condemn the Dispensary.

Communicated
Below will be found expressions
from several citizens of Dawson re-
garding the dispensary. 1t is in
teresting to note that they are
among the wealthiest, most progress
i've and public-spirited men of the
city-not given to jumping at con-
clusions," but sober, thinking bust
ness men, having the best interests
of the community at heart and care
fully weighing every question affect
ing the public. They speak only at

follows, and ponder:
It's influences is evil and evil con-
tinually.-T. NJ. Martin.
1t is the greatest menace to our
town in both a moral, spiritual and
business way.-W. A. McLain.
am satisfied that the dispensary
is a very much greater cost to our
town and county than it can possibly
benefit it-not only from a financial
standpoint, but morally, spiritually.
A. J. Baldwin.
am persuaded by Gods word, by
what | have read elsewhere, Dy WHAT
| have heard and by what | have
seen, and am seeing every day in
Dawson, that alcohol is working a
greater destruction in the world than
floods and famines, pestilences and
pick-pockets, railroads, riots and
robberies, or any other creature, y
and that the Terrell county dispen-
saries have done more to impede the
progress of righteousness and tenn
perance in Georgia than any other
county in the state, and that some
members of our churches are the
biggest hindrances in the way OF
moving the devils strongest agent
from our midst.-W. P. Hornady.
am opposed to the sale OF whis-
key in any form-barroOms, dispen-
saries or blind tigers.-J. A. Ivey,
w. C. Paschal.

and should be voted out.-M. H.
