THE DEFEAT OF HoKE SMITH

defeat for Prohibition. There is, however,
not the slightest reason so to regard it. 1t is true
that Governor SMITH and his supporters-partic-
ularly the Atlanta Journal, which he owns have
used every means to convince the people of Geor-
gia that the reelection of Governor SMITH was
necessary to the preservation of the prohibitory

NO LET-DOWN OF EFFORT

NO LEI-DOWN OE EEEOkT
The National Prohibitionist feels that
word of caution is vitality necessary just now.
Everywhere within the ranks of Prohibition
workers there seems to be the enthusiastic
belief that the Prohibition reform has
reached the period when it is going forward
like an irresistible force, carrying every
thing before it.
We would not needlessly discourage this
belief. But already we see the tendency to
feel that, the people having at last been
aroused, the persistent personal effort OF
every Prohibitionist is no longer so lmpor-
tant. GIVE worked hard and poured out
my money for twenty-five years for this re-
form, and now Pm going to let some OF the
new blood have hand" is the way one OF
the veterans expressed it recently
Comrades, the greatest danger to the Pro-
hibition reform lies in that direction. Who
ever heard of an army of veterans leaving
the battlefield and entrusting an unfinished
fight to the raw recruits? Let us welcome
with open arms the recruits, as reinforce
ments, but our own strenuous endeavors we
must never relax till the battle is completely
won
And just there it is important to say that
this battle has hardly passed the skirmish
line yet. The most tremendous fight for
position in its history is just ahead of the
Prohibition party. Let us rejoice over every
victory of recent time-state or local. They
are signs of growing public sentiment, and
in most cases are directly or indirectly the
results of the leadership of the Prohibition
party. But in those very victories the Pro-
hibition party may find its greatest diff
culty-the tendency to confne the fight to
localities and states and eliminate partizan
lines. That does not give Prohibition
real Prohibition half chance. That
would be to desert the campaign for national
deliverance and go bushwhacking.
It is announced with more or less author
ity that the Prohibition question will be ig-
nored in the platforms and campaigns of
the two big political parties. Bat the Pro-
hibitioa question has by no means been omit
ted from their calculations.
Just how they intend to use the elements
within their hands in combination with the
millions of dollars which brewers and dis
tillers are ready to expend to save their bust

law. This, however, was not from the devotion
of either SMITH or the Journal to the law, but
because they believed that Prohibition was con-
venient steed upon which to ride into power
HoKE SMITH, up to the moment when it was
seen that the fight against Prohibition was hopeS>
less, was one of the most pronounced of the anti
Prohibitionists of the state of Georgia. His pa
per, the Atlanta Journal, represented his views in
antagonism to Prohibition. SMITH, indeed, signed
the prohibitory law, since public sentiment in
favor of it was far too strong to be opposed, and
the legislature would unquestionably have passed
it his veto, but up to the present time
SMITHS paper has continued to be fragrant
violator of all proprieties in advertising liquors
in connection with the "ug" trade 1t is prob
ably safe to say that the advertisements of mail
order liquor houses have averaged more than
quarter of page in every number of the Atlanta
Journal since the Prohibition law went into effect
revenue for HoKE SMITH.
Of SMITHS successful opponent nothing is
known that leads to the belief that the Prohibi-
ton law is in any special danger from him. So
far as promises to support the Prohibition law
are concerned, Brown is under exactly the same
pledges that SMITH had TAKEN while his personal
record is rather better
But, be all this as it may, the people of Geor-
gia must learn that the safety of the Prohibition
law depends upon themselves So long as they
desire the law to be maintained and make that
desire clear at the ballot boz, it will be main
tanned Our own belief is that sooner or later
they will discover the fact that they need, not
men personally favorable to the law, but polit-
ical party in power committed to the maintenance
and execution of the Prohibition statute. a

WHY: AN ANSWER

The Wine and Spirit Gazette propounds to The
National Pyohibitionist a series of questions with
an air which indicates that expects to embarrass
us somewhat. The questions
Why have all the original Prohibition states,
with the exception of Maine, abandoned that pol
icy? fH
Why are the people of Maine struggling to be
free from the tyranny OF Prohibition?
Why don't the Prohibitionists dare to resubmit
the question for the political decision to the citi-
zens of that state? Fs
Why, if local option is correct political prin-
ciple, should it be limited in its application to
question only? &s.
Why should not all questions relating to the
public welfare be submitted to local option?
Our only embarrassment arises from the fact
that the publication of these questions leads us
to wonder whether have been so efectually
concealing our views upon the subject that the
Wine and Spirit Gazette actually supposes that
The National Prohibitionist believes in local op-
ton. We will, however, endeavor to set that
matter forever at rest in the mind of the editor
of the Gazette
We do not believe that local option is the cor
rect political principle" regarding the liquor traf
fc, nor regarding anything else of harmful char
acter. We believe, and have said repeatedly,
that no legislature has the right to leave the ques
ton of liquor selling to local determination more
than it would have the right to leave the ques-
ton of horse stealing to local determination. We
have no more faith in the local option system OF
dealing with the liquor traffic than would have
in system of public morals that proposed to put
the Ten Commandments to vote in every chance
crossroads meeting. We do believe that when
the legislature has shirked its duty of abolshing
the liquor traffic, the people are justified in TAX
ing the opportunity given them by local option
law to abolish it, so far as they can, thus per
forming in part the neglected duty of the legisla
ture.

intentions are shown. The National Prohi-
bitlonist is planning to meet them at every
point. The work of this paper in the past
six months has been commended everywhere,
as the best service ever given by Prohibi-
ton paper. That work will not be inter-
mitted for moment, but there are two
points, dovetailing, that need consideration:
From the first we have frankly admitted
our lack of capital It is an unfortunate
circumstance, but we have not attempted to
situation squarely in the face, when one
knows he has a fight on in the near future
that is going to tax all his vital powers. The
same thing is true of newspaper. We
know-we are in position to know, perhaps
better than most others-the tremendous
fight that lies just ahead of the Prohibition
forces, and to know that in that fight The
National Prohibitiomist will be an essential
factor
When the big fight is once fairly on, The
National Prohibitiomist must be at its best,
with all its energies fresh and vigorous, and
with circulation large enough to make
definite, immediate impression upon the en-
tire American citizenship.
That means, for one thing, an extended
circulation. The "short term" subscriptions
OF the closing weeks Of the campaign will be
valuable, but the people who come under
our influence then can not be so hopefully
influenced as can those who read this paper
through the campaign and learn that it's re-
searches are thorough and it's statistics and
other information reliable
Had we large capital, the question of
reaching wider field would be easily an
swered 1t is the day when thousands Of
subscribers can be had, almost for the ask
ing. But The National Prohibitionist can
not place corps of salaried agents in the
field We must depend upon the loyal CO.
operation of the same men and women who
have thus far been carrying the burden of
this work.
We say it modestly, but from deep convic-
ton, This is the most important work be-
fore the Prohibitionists this gear.
This paper ought to have at least 10000
new names added to its list within the next
four weeks. The harvest is ripe for gather
ing, and no part of the field has yet been
canvassed as thoroughly as it ought to be-
Comrades, the cause is yours, and in
truer sense than ever before, The National
Prohibitiomist belongs to the Prohibition
party, ''to have and to hold" and to use for
the promotion of the cause which we all
serve. If you will add 10000 new names to
it's circulation within the next month, by our
united efforts we shall make 1908 moment
GUS above all the years that have come and
gone.

OF JAMES T. DAVIS
Continued from page One)

This statement, if really appearing
in the complaint of the Board, is fool
ish and unjustified, being without
basis in fact, and is not the inliyii-
ual opinion of the members of the
Board
The cold facts are that the State
Bank and Trust Co. can lose out of
it's assets more than the amount stat
ed in it's insolvency, and still pay it's
creditors. While a public statement
of this kind cannot affect the ultimate
result, it is unjustifiable and mex
cusable emanating as it does from an
Official source, presumably in possess
ion of the facts.
An intelligent report of the Bank
Examiner should, and would have
shown that the Bank has in assets a
sum- of approximately $45O,O0O.OO in
excess of that required to pay it's OBJ
legations those due to its to stock
holders Yours Etc.

Statement Of
ALI. ChartZ
EDITOR APPEAL

The suit brought by the Attorney
General OF the State Of Nevada AYERS
that the State Bank & Trust Company
is insolvent to the tune of 1851, 069.
This is not true. Amongst the liabil-
tiles he places 100000 for capital
stock, and $176,21O.17 for surplus or
reserve fund and undivided profits,
making total of $376,21O.17, which
sum must be deducted from his esti-
mate of $451 ,O69, leaving the bank
insolvent to the tune of S74,S57. SO,
instead of $451,O6
The capital stock and surplus and
undivided profits is a total loss to the
stockholders only. The depositors
and creditors do not lose cent of it,
and should not be counted as a. liza
bility of the bank. Those two items
are placed as liabilities simply be-
cause banking corporations are in the
habit of inserting them as liabilities
At the preliminary examination liz
the case of State VS.. T. B. Hickey,
held in Carson City, Major Miller, as
Bank Examiner, figured the bank in
solvent only to the amount OF about
$11 1000, after deducting the items l
have mentioned. He subsequently
made a more thorough examination
of he several banks. and his return
shows the Bank & Trust Company in
solvent to the amount OF about So 900.
+ How the Attorney General now fig
] ures the bank to be insolvent to the
amount of S74S57S3. after deducting
the capital stock and surplus and un-
: divided profits, / 60 not know.
But the effect of reporting the
bank insOlvent in the sum Of $451 ,0t9,
instead of it's real indebtedness over
: and above it's assets, whatever it may
! be, can well be imagined These
discourage depositors and creditors
! from signing he agreement from the
J beginning to the present time, and
! has been the means of urging and
coaxing depositors and creditors to
sell their accounts for far less than
| their real value, and has prevented
the bank from opening its doors, and
ultimately paying its debts in full.
l reiterate what l said in my argument
before the committing magistrate
that if any depositor loses a dollar, il
will be caused by sensationalism
hatred, malice, revenge and ignorance
