houses and two were wholesale beer houses, and
one was a brewery.
The capital represented was between $7500O0
and $1000,0oo.
The brewery has been turned into an ice plant
and practically every saloon in the downtown dis
trict is already rented for some legitimate bust
ness. A large brick building, formerly occupied
by the Chattanooga Brewing company, has just
been rented by firm of brokerage and commits
sion men who pay the rent that the brewers
paid The famous saloon at 81 Whitehall street
has just been opened up barber shop, one of
the most elegant in the city. The barroom of the
Piedmont Hotel, of which Governor Hoke Smith
was part owner, has been turned into an elegant
coffee room.
Much of the capital that formerly invested
in the liquor business here has been converted
into money and is being re-invested in other lines
of business in this city.

SAVANNAH GOING TO RUIN"
Police Business in Georgia's Great Seaport
Almost Wiped Out by Prohibition

SAVANNAH, Ga, January 6.-(Special CORE
spondence YESTERDAY was the first Sunday for
Georgia under the operation of the Prohibition
law and it was the quietest Sunday that Savannah
has known for many years. At the police station
house last night one of the results of the law was
plainly visible. There but three prisoners.
On any other Sunday night for years seventy-five
prisoners would have attracted no particular at
tention and would have excited no comment.
From dark Saturday night up to this morning
just three arrests made by the police and all
of these were parties who had been able to get
liquor somewhere and were drunk One year ago,
from midnight Saturday until Sunday morning,
fourteen arrests were made.
1t has to be remembered that the present adj
minstration is inclined to strict law enforcement
and will make a larger number of arrests than the
old administration, which accents the showing.

Still More "Woe" from Prohibition

ATLANTA, GA, January 10 Especial CORE
spondence)- up to noon today 202 arrests was
the total recorded at the police headquarters since
the beginning of the new year, under the Prohi-
bition law. A year ago at midnight, January g.
there had been 42S arrests. Among the 202 ar
rests are IS for intoxication, including II made
upon New Years day One year ago at mid
night, January 9, 143 arrests had been made for
drunkenness.
One of the results of the system is that
policemen are being removed from the business
center and placed upon patrol duty in the out
skirts of the city where in the past it has been
impossible to give the people any police protec-
ton.
Today saw four more of the vacated saloons
buildings rented to reputable businesses. This
leaves few outside of the business center still
unoccuped, but there will be very few vacancies
on account of Prohibition law by the time three
months have passed. 1t announced today
that the Kiinbal House barroom is to be re-.
fitted and opened as fashionable restaurant.

BEDE SEES 1T COMING
Minnesota Congressman Believes the Whole
Country Ready to Abolish Saloons

WASHINGTON, D. c., January GA Press Dis
patch Representative J. Adam Bede of Min
nesota thinks the present drift of public opinion
on the temperance question may become ma
tional issue in the next campaign. He does not
know just how it is coming up, but says that the
people of the country are doing great deal Of
thinking about the issue.
"The great political leaders do not seem to be
paying much attention to the temperance ques-
tlon," said Mr.. Bede today "but the people of
the country were discussing it with much earnest
ness. During my recent lecture tour, in which
visited thirty states, [ was surprised at the
amount of Prohibition and local option talk
which heard in almost every state The
strength of the temperance sentiment in the South
as shown by recent elections, was not surprising
to me. In rural communities the temperance
sentiment is as pronounced in the North as it is
in the South Although large cities have
been enjoying an enormous growth, over half
of the voting population of the country lives in
cities would vote against Prohibition or local
option but the majorities in rural districts would
be SO large that they would overcome the votes
in the cities. If the question we're submitted to
the people believe that almost eOery state in the
Union avonld be Uoted dry.
''Just at present other questions are occupying
the public mind, but if the people turn their
attention to the liquor question issue it will
make national issue of it,.
Congressman Bede is of the orators who
toured Minnesota debating against Prohibition
ago.

NEGROES GO TO WORK
Closed Saloons in Georgia Give Promise of
Solution of the Souths Industrial
Problem

MACON, Ga, January 7.-(Special correspond
ence )-One of the results of Prohibition which
had not been wholly unexpected appears in this
city in the anxiety of the negroes to find work.
In common with the rest of the South, Macon has
been suffering from the laziness of the negroes,
many of whom, as long as by two or three days
work week they could get enough money to
keep soul and body together and provide liquor,
would not work more than that time Now, with
the saloons closed, the negroes are Strengthening
up and hunting for work 1t is the testimony of
business men here that applications for work
from negro men are almost constant
This, if it shall prove, it is expected to
prove, permanent part of the results of Pro
hibition will go far toward settling the industrial
problem in the South The anxiety of the South
to secure foreign immigration, which has led
to such strenuous efforts in that line during the
last few months, has been largely caused by the
untrustworthy condition of negro labor, and
everybody recognizes throughout the whole South
that if the negro can be kept sober and return
to his old industry, he will make more desirable
aborer than Southern Europe possibly fur

MILWAUKEE, WIDE OPEN
Beers Capital City Refuses to Put Even Slight
Check on the Brewers Distributing
Station

MILWAUKEE, January 7.-(Specia correspond
ence LAST night the common council of Mil
waukee placed this great city, which has been
made famous the world around by its beer,
squarely upon the reactionary side and in fiat
footed opposition to the pretended reform
of the brewers.
This was accomplished when the proposed or
dinance requiring the closing of the saloons from
one o'clock to five o'clock in the morning, came
up for vote The "reformers' of Milwaukee have
determined to be very sane" Even the Anti
Saloon League has announced that it does not
care to so much as agitate for Prohibition
movement here; that it has no anxiety to see
mayor elected who is hostile to the saloon; that
it does not even ask for Sunday-closing. But it
has made bold to ask that the saloon should close
from one to five on every morning.
An ordinance to this effect by some means got
through the judiciary committee and was reported
Yesterday before the council and came up for
vote late last evening. Two aldermen voted for it;
thirty-nine voted against it, The names upon the

SAME lawful STORY" FROM KANSAS

Senator Curtis Tells How Sunfower State
VIRTUES Under Prohibitions Heel
1.-THE following paragraphs are from inter
view with Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas,
published in the Chicago Record-HeraId, Janu-
ary 10, 1908. The reader needs to note that Sen
ator Curtis has always been considered an OPP
ponent of Prohibition in Kansas. He was elected
to the office of county attorney OF Shawnee county
on an AUTHORIZATION ticket and tor several
years prior to his election had been the attorney
for the liquor men in their attempt to violate the
Prohibition 1aw.-Editorial Motel
The resubmssionists make an effort to prove
that Prohibition has retarded the development OF
the state, but do not think SO. do not think
that Topeka or any of the other cities in which
the law has been enforced are any less prosper
Gus or progressive than those in which the law
has not been enforced. I believe that Kansas is
a better state under Prohibition that it would
have been under high license or local option or
any other system of regulations. At least 1t is
not worse and Prohibition certainly has had
marked effect in diminishing crime and poverty
l cannot speak personally of any other city
except Topeka, for that is my home, and there
know by personal experience that the criminal
dockets of our courts always full prior to
the enforcement of the Prohibition law, and the
county attorneys office kept continuously
busy preparing for criminal prosecutions. The
first term of court when | county attorney
there there were 100 criminal indictments be-
sides large number of informations. But as the
saloons were closed and the liquor traffic was
suppressed the number of criminal cases grad
ualv decreased until the last term of court while
| was in office there was not a single Indictment
And believe the record in other counties where
he Prohibition law has been enforced is similar
to that in Shawnee county
The iails and poorhouses throughout the state
are usually vacant. If the sheriff has any board
ers they are in for horse stealing or for other
offenses which cannot be attributed to whisky,
and the only people you find in the poorhouse
are helpless old men and women or cripples, who
have no other means of support and are not
brought there because those who should take care
of them are spending their money for liquor.
There is no poverty in Kansas; no community
in the history of the world ever better Oft
Up to the recent financial furry the deposits IN

. INJURING HOMESEEKER

II ets ~ IL ets ets ets ets ets ~ II sts IT
1t seems unfortunate that the
railways entering Colorado could not
keep the homeseeker rates at the
old prices of $25 instead of raising
them to $32.
This is n direct blow to Colorado
inasmuch as the homeseeker business
is developing rapidly in this state.
and more people are turning their
eyes to Colorado than ever before.
Every new family brought to the
state means more business for the
railways, and 200 or 900 of them
who might be induced to settle in the
course of n year would recompense
the railways ten times over for this
difference in fare II it were kept at
s25. These people would bring their
goods ard utensils at once. and from
he very first year would be ship
,ers. The niggardly 81 or $40
which the railroads demand would
Ne more than repaid to them at once
the man decided to become a citi-
zen of Colorado.
The short-sightedness of the policy
s apparent from the fact that this
Inference in fare might operate to
ieep several hundred people from
making the homeseeker excursion.
md again 1t Is particularly unjust to
colorado, because this state has been
enerous with the roads, has kept
nut of the two-cent fare business be-
,ause 1t Is mountain country and has
)een disposed to deal fairly in all
'espects with the roads.
Hence, 1t is most unwise AID un-
lust for the railways to return this
courtesy by cutting out the home
seekers rates. for which Colorado
had reason to expect so much.-Col-

FOR THE RELIEF OF
STARVING THOUSANDS.

St. Petersburg, Jan. 23.-An ad-
ditional appropriation for the thous-
ands of famine stricken peasants of
Russia who are now on the verge
of starvation Is the most pressi.g
matter before the members OF the
douma before its recess. and which
the long holiday vacation. This is
in addition to the appropriation for
$7.500,000, which was voted by the
doufma before its recess. and which
with few local bills. represented
the first six weeks of the third
douma. This vast sum. double the
amount originally proposed in the
budget, was exhausted in only par
TALLY relieving the suffering in
twelve provinces. A lage part of
the money was distributed through
the zemstves and other local or
ganizations, as the Capitalization OF
relief work had previously resulted
in grave abuses. Reports from va
rious provinces state that conditions
are worse than ever and that adji-
tional appropriation Is urgently need
ed.
The 169 members of the first
douma, who were convicted of trea-
sonable conduct in signing the vi
borg manifesto. have appealed to
the senate and will be given a final
hearing in the near future. Three
months imprisonment for each OF
the convicted men was the sentence
imposed, but this apparently light
punishment is made severe by the
fact that they all are prevented from
taking any part in the political
affairs in the future. 1t is unlikely
that the senate will Interfere with
the execution of the sentence.

Discrctiit to the Profession.

One of the worst features of the
law business is the contingent fee.
Many hundreds of cases are brought
against cities and individuals and
corporations, by lawyers on a con-
'ingent fee basis. Sometimes these
hard-up attorneys send around their
emissaries to suggest to some person
that he or she has been damaged
and that 1t would be good thing to
bring a lawsuit. The contingent fee
lawyer of this sort is a discredit to
his profession.-Colorado Springs
