Sues for
Damages

RENO, November 19.-Mrs. Estella
Mallory, who was a short time ago
stnt to the county Jail by Judge Bell
because she had failed to pay some
bills, and was later releasd on a ewrit
of habas corpus by Judge Pike, who
had declared that Judge Bell had H.
legally deprived her Of her liberty
and had overreached the powers of a
Justic of the Peace, has filed suit for
damages agtinst Edward S. Fontaine
and Henry Werner. She alleges that
these men, who sued for debt, were
responsible for the action of the COM
mitting magistrate, and that as a re-
suit of her confinement in the county
Jail her reputation has been injured
and that they prevented her from ac-
cepting a good position in Portland,
Oregon. Mrs. Mallory asks for $500
damages. .-.-.. ..-.... ...

the duck market will be somewhat
below par when the hunters return
that is if they are lucky.

ing wiped out by Interpretation of the law tor
if the court should hold that club is public
place." the state officials will hold that liquor
cannot be kept there, even for personal consump-
ton, under the general provision of the Prohibi-
ton law.
The talk Of which much has been heard, OF
attacking the prohbitory law on the ground that
the constitution of the state of Georgia appro-
PIRATES special liquor taxes for school purposes,
will amount to nothing. There is nothing man
datory in that provision of the constitution, nor
is there any danger that the school funds of the
state will suffer from the absence of liquor reve-
nues. The fact that in the greater part of the
state for years past no revenue has been re-
ceived from the liquor traffic, shows that it is
possible to maintain schools without resorting to
the sale of drink to aid public education.

HOKE STILL SHES
Georgias Governor Doesn't Want to See
States Example Followed

ATLANTA Ga, December 29-(Special CORE
spondence) -Governor Hoke Smith, in inter
view given out today insisted that Georgia's Pro-
hibition law would be strongly enforced, but ex-
planned his personal position regarding drink. He
said
There is no doubt that Prohibition is wise
from an economic standpoint. The overwhelming
sentiment of the white people of Georgia is for
Prohibition and the law will be enforced.
81 do not expect the temperance movement to
produce, as rule, laws so stringent as the Geor-
gia law, but do hope to see the American stand
ing bar prohibited nearly everywhere. The use
of whisky and similar drinks might then be con-
fined to medicinal purposes, and the lighter drinks
such as wines and beer, be used only at the table
as food"

ENFORCEMENT IN GEORGIA
Even the Much Talked-Of "Club" Feature
Not to Operate Against Full Prohibition

ATLANTA, GA, January Especial correspond
ence)-A good deal has been said in the North
about the intention of the white men of Georgia
to enforce the prohbitory law wherever it
has to do with the sale of liquor to the negroes
but to provide such loophoes and ways of escape
as will make it easy for every white man who
wants to get drink Much emphasis has been
placed upon the supposed exceptions made in the
cases of clubs, and the statement is repeated
again and again. in northern papers, that the
white men will find it easy enough to belong to
clubs and get liquor just as they used to.
1t may be said with much emphasis that there
is no intention the part of the great mass of
white men of Georgia to make any attempt to
prevent the enforcement of the prohibtory law
in its fullest extent. In the greater part of Geor
ga prohibition of the sale of liquor is no
thing, but has been in force for years. 1t is an
innovation only in the larger cities, and there
with the possible exception of Savannah, the
sentiment in favor of the law is strong.
The clubs are not likely to cut any special fig
ure in the new regime. Even incorporated clubs
are not allowed to serve liquor to their members,
though member may have a locker in which
he may keep liquors for his own personal use
He cannot, however, dispense liquors from his
locker to his friends whether they or are
not members of the club. The new law pro-
vides that any club where lockers maintained
and in which liquors are kept by members, must
pay tax of $500 to the state the idea being to
provide the state with the necessary funds to
keep a close supervision over such clubs. Many
of the more respectable clubs have already an
nounced that they not only will not make pro-
visions for lockers, but they hereafter will for
bid liquor to be brought into the clubhouses.
The whole club provision is in danger of be-

POPULATION DECREASING
Undesirable Inhabitants Running Away From
Atlanta With Advent of Prohibition

ATLANTA, GA, January Especial CORE
spondence) THE police of Atlanta have been
astonished to find that, contrary to the usual
holiday experience, there has been no consider
able increase of drunkenness or crime This is
the more remarkable because it has been antici-
pated that the incoming of Prohibition would
stimulate the drinking element to unusual indul-
gence and result in larger measure of crime
than is common at the holiday season.
The explanation is simple but convincing; the
bad element leaving Atlanta The toughs
and chronic buns have already started for
more congenial atmosphere Criminals of all
kinds, who have made the saloons of Atlanta
their hanging out place, are visiting their ven
geance upon Georgia for enacting a Prohibition
law by reducing the population, taking them
selves to Tennessee, Florida and South Carolina,
where license cities can yet be found. A detec-
tive quoted in the Journal last night said:
The bad element has been leaving in focks.
It's members can't live comfortably in Georgia,
after January l. so they're taking time by the
foreocl and gone. Half the saloons in the
city have actually been losing money for the past
two weeks. They haven't had even a normal
trade. They'd close down of their accord,
tonight, without any need for Prohibition law
I've talked with several of the saloon men, and
they say they are disguised and are perfectly
willing to quit.
1t is already noticeable that buildings used
saloons, occupying important corners, are en-
gagged for reputable businesses Dives and less
reputable establishments, where the property has
its value to rent largely because of the willingness
of the bad" saloonkeeper to pay big rent, will,
of course find it difficult to obtain tenants at the
lucrative rent rates of old. In this respect the
landlords who have been preying upon the public
at secondhand, will get part of the punishment
that is coming to them"
