One of the provisions of the
state wide prohibition bill intro
duced by Senator Carlisle is that
there is no alternative of fine or
imprisonment and the person found
guilty of selling whiskey will have
to serve from three to twelve
months on the chain gang. The
chief objection to the present law
is that the dealer has the option of
paying a fine or serving time on
the chain gang, and the object of
Senator Carlisle's bill is to pre-
vent towns and cities from using
the illicit dealer as a source of re-
venue by imposing on him period
ical fines in lieu of a term in pris-
on.

town, is after the topers. Mr..
Doar favors, and may introduce, a
bill levyipg an inspection tax of
20 cents per gallon on all liquors
shipped into the state, the revenue
from this source to be given to the
school fund in each county. Of
course, such a law would not de-
crease the jug trade, but it would
go long way toward helping out
the schools and should meet with
high favor in those counties that
retain the dispensary only because
it is a source of revenue.

AS there is no longer any
doubt about the formation of Dill
lon County the public naturally
will turn its attention to those
things that will tend to make the
bIbv county the banner county of
the state. Of course, there are
many problems yet to solve Lc-
fore the county machinery is put
in proper running order, bit
while the work of organization is
proceeding we do not want to lose
sight of the fact that better roads
were promised the new county
people and those promises must
be carried out. In the many mat
ters that will engage the attention
of the new county in the next u
months none can be more impor-
tant thap the question of good
roads. There has been introduce
ed.in the general assembly Il bill
by Representative Cosgrove of
Charleston, which provides for a
state bond issue of 81, 500, 900 for
good roads. The indications are
that this bill will become law,
and in that event the state will ap-
portion the money among the sew
eral counties upon the condition
that the counties receiving this
money shall make a bond issue for
a corresponding amount and pledge
themselves to put up dollar for

prescribes the amount of taxable

THRICE WELCOME, GENTLEMEN!

For ten years, aye, y or - OF
them, Brunswick has been crying for
q drst-class hotel at St. Simon. Her
people have all been cock-sure that
such an investment would bring good
dividends, but somehow her capital
lists have managed to steer clear OF
see proposition. However, the occa-
sion and the men generally met and
from what we understand, the island
will have an up-to-date hotel complet-
ed and ready for business in time for
the next summers traffic. Those
who are at the head of this move
ment are not Brunswick people, Tut
Trey are among the wealthiest and
most prominent business men in
south Georgia, who are ever watchfui
for an opportunity to invest capital
where it will bring fair returns. The
Bunns, Of Fairfax, are the moving
spirits in the new enterprise and
.hcir name in vast section of south
Georgia stands for success and sta
bility in the business world. We
want to welcome these captains of
industry to ST. Simon and to Bruins
wick, and we want to do so in tle
most cordial manner, assuring them
that the people as a whole the mas
SEES of this city extends to them the
right hand Of good fellowship and
points to tie latchstring which
stands on the very outside of the
door!
We admire intensely their spirit of
progressiveness, in taking advantage
of this splendid opportunity and they
will find that our people, or ve,y
vast percentage of them at least, are
ready and willing to cooperate with
them in the fullest measure that |
their venture may become thor
oughly successful one

is THE MOVE A GOOD ONE?

zion it would be received by the ma
tional guardsmen with caution, if for
no other reason than on the grounds
of whose bread | eat, is song l

way toward militarism, and the Dick
law plus pay would pretty well rob
! the state arm of any rights. We have
made startling strides in militia
| transformation, as it is. 1t is OF
| likely that the average citizen soldier
would care. to take the kings shil-
ling" under serious contract.
At present the national guardsman
private draws very little pay from the
government. II he goes upon enca mp
ment, he gets a pittance for a short
period, but it is mere basatslle
and forms no real incentive for join
ing the service. We telieve that
this encampment compensation
might we'll be increased with advan-
tage to the militia service 1t would
build UP better attendance upon the
camping maneuvers, and under our
present system hnese military en-
campments afford about the only Cd
portunity for general field training,
so that any special attraction that
might bring out larger numbers of
state troops would lie good.
We are not people devoted to mi
litarism Consequently we are not
enthusiastic about any scheme that
tends to bring the volunteer soldier
nearer to the regular soldier IN sta
tus. The government has a pretty
good hold upon our state militia now,
and should be satisfied to develop
the efficiency of the volunteer amy
as it is now controlled The states
yet have the privilege of contributin9
to the support of their militia and
