STATE PROHIBITIONS.

1t must be remember that If
was the liquor dealers in those
larger Georgia cities who first be-
gan the work of denying certain
counties rights tC regulate their
local affairs, and now that they
have sowed to the wind, they can
hut expect to reap the whirlwind,
says the Athens Call. Take fo1
instance Gwinnett. When that
county voted out liquor, and in
order to better enforce the law at
Lawrenceville, passed an ordi-
nance forbidding the shipment of
intoxicants from liquor centers
into their town, it was R. M. Rose,
an Atlanta Wholesale liquor deal
er, who first denied the right of
the good people Of Gwinnett to
manage their own affairs, and by
appealing to the courts, forced
Lawrenceville to open It's gates to
a tiood-tide of Atlanta booze and
it took that town some time to
devise plan to protect its privll-
eyes.
Now, when we find those Allan
ia liquor dealers who thus dispute
the right of other counties to con-
troll their internal affairs, talking
about how very WI ong it is for the
prohibition counties to assume to
legislate for the "wet" counties,
it does really make us tired. We
are satisfied that such arbitrary
action as that of the r. NJ. Rose
Co., in forcing their goods on pro-
hibition towns and communities
did more than all else TO elect q
Legislature bent on sweeping liquol
from the confines of Georgia.
Now, when we come down to
cold blooded facts, and Justice and
reason. we must confess the gen,
eral assembly has Just as much
right to force prohibition on At
lanta, even against the supposed
opposition of the majority of itt
people, as those Atlanta liquor
dealers had to employ lawyers, anC
by appealing to the courts, force
their goods on the people of Law

TWO POOR BOYS.

A young man has just been APP
pointed state meat inspector Of
Colorado whose history is worth
reading, says an exchange. He
was farm hand, but desiring to
get an education went to an agri-
cultural college where he worked
at odd jobs as janitor and finally
as newspaper reporter. By indus
try and economy he managed to
complete his course, and by assis-
lance procured by these character
istics went to the San Francisco
veterinary college, won the gold
medal, and returned to teach III
the agricultural college. Here he
"made good" as usual and now
occupies a responsible position be-
cause he is thoroughly qualified
to fill it.
A few years ago poor boy
came to the veterinary college of
the University of Pennsylvania
walked there, we believe, from a
distant town because he had no
money for car fare. He shoveled
coal, carried ashes, waited on the
table and finally ran boarding
house to pay his expenses. In va
cation time be worked for an ice
company. Last winter in street
car accident his leg was crushed
and amputated at the thigh. But
the ice company came forward
promptly with an offer of 81 800 a
year for his services on his gradu-
alton.
There are two points III these
two stories that young men should
not miss: First, that. a plucky,
Industrious and honest boy can
get an education even if ne has no
money; and, second, that there is
always somebody ready and will
ing to help such q boy.
When the Agricultural College
of Cobb county is opened it will
afford an opportunity for many
ambitious aid deserving boys to
secure all education.

COTTON TO BE HIGH AND SCARCE,

The Montgomery Advertiser,
discussing the cotton question,
says, editorially:
Cotton will be scarce and in
great demand before the opening
of the next season. 1t is Lot prob
able that any will be brought to
market during the month Of Au.
gust. A considerable quantity is
usually brought in during that
month, but the crop being at least
three weeks late makes it almost
certain that marketing will not
begin until September. Judging
from the local standpoint, there
will be no old crop to carry into
the new year. Last year at that
date there was in Montgomery / :
491 bales, as against only 1858.
Between nowand September 1 that
small amount will be disposed of
and leave the market absolutely
bare. On Septem Der l last year
the stock on hand was 1868 bales.
This year it will probably be moth.
ing The stocks at all ports and
interior points are very light.
With no old cotton on hand and
present. crop at the highest 25 per
cent less than the last one, it
would seem that good prices must
be paid for what the planters may
gather this fall.
