TIME TO CALL 4 HIATT.

Reports all agree that more whis-
key was shipped into Georgia this
Christmas than ever before in the
history of the state. A certain South
Georgia town of 5000 inhabitants
received in one day, it is stated by
a railroad man who knows what he
is talking about, five full carloads of
whiskey from Jacksonville. How
ever much one may not want to &C
knowledge it there can be no denial
Of the fact that conditions in Geor-
gia as they relate to the whiskey
traffic are deplorable, and are stead
lily growing worse Matters certain
ly cannot be permitted to go on
much longer as they are.
In our own city, if common report
is true, whiskey can be bought al
most as easily and readily as in dis
pensary days Whether this is true
or not The News does not know, but
certain it is that many evidences of
it and its degrading effects are to
be seen, and little effort is made to
improve conditions by bringing the
viOlators of law to justice.
The new administration, now just
entering upon their duties, could do
their city no greater service, and at
the same time win the confidence
and commentator of the people,
than by a firm and effective en-
forcement of the laws and making
a clean city morally. Drive out the
blind tigers; do not let the Migrants
linger here; close the dives that are
kept open mainly for drinking
places, where unseemly and indie
cent conduct abounds. That is what
the people, as a whole, want. No
one wants tyranny, or oppression, or
unnecessary restrictions and prose
cutions, but a vast majority of the
people do want and stand for a
proper enforcement of law, and
above all for the suppression OF
limitation, as far as possible, of any
evils that may affect the commune
ty.
The News is not fanatical on the
whiskey question, as all know; but
we do believe in law enforcement
in good order, and in clean morals
as community as we'll as in indi
yiduaIs.

WORSE THAN OUR DARKIEs.

Recent disclosures lead the Albany
Herald to remark that the average
Georgia negro, now practically dis
franchised, was a pretty respectable
and reliable elector compared with
the average voter in at least one
county in Ohio. And the average
voter in Ohio is white"
The press dispatches for several
days past have been reporting whole
sale indictments by the grand jury
in Adams county, Ohio, and nearly
three thousand indictments have
been returned. This is said to be
about two-thirds of the voting list
e the county.
1t appears from the testimony
that the selling of votes has been
a widespread and well-established
industry there for fifteen years.
Votes were on the bargain counter
One person was shown to have sold
his vote to one political party for a
dollar and to another for fifty cents.
The indicted voters are pleading
guilty to the charge, and are being
fined from $40 to SIS each and dis
for five years

HE HASN'T VISITED DAWSON.
From the Albany Herald.

From the Albany Herald.
Judge Parker of Waycross, @presid-
ing Judge of the Brunswick circuit,
is quoted as saying: IF you do not
believe that prohibition prohibits in
Georgia come with me and ask the
negroes and the white men who are
working our roads with chains on
their ankles. l feel sure they will
tell you that it at least prohibits
them from enjoying the comforts of
home as we'll as the privilege of
drinking liquor. The man who says
he can get all the liquor he wants in
Georgia either don't want much or
he lies 1t may be as Judge Parker
says it is down Wayeross way, but
it is not so all over the state. Pro
hibition appears to be prohibiting
only in spots, and the dry spots are
gradually growing smaller and furth-
er between.

A GOOD NEW YEAR RESOLUTION
TO MAKE.


The best New Years resolution
the people of Dawson could make
would be to quit buying the stocks
and bonds of companies in other
towns and cities and keep their
money at home and build up Daw-
son by investing it here.
In the last few years enough Daw-
son and Terrell county money has
been sunk in Florida and put in
insurance companies and corpora
tions of other towns to have estab-
lished a large cotton mill or half a
dozen smaller enterprises that would
have given employment to people
and helped to build up our own city
in various ways.
1t has been said that whenever
financiers" of any place decide up
on get rich quick scheme (at the
expense of the other fellow, and as
a special favor will take in a select
few to share the good thi"o with
them, they at once inqu

midst with his baud IN OF
books.
1t is time for so much of this to
stop. If we have any money left
to invest this year let US invest it
at home, and build up Dawson in
stead of some other place
And don't forget to buy your
goods at home. Nothing helps a
town more than for people to pat
ronize home merchants and home
of every character. And
his applies to the merchants as we'll
as to other people.

FLEW TO THEIR DEATH.

The flying craze has added two
more victims to its long list of tragic
deaths
John B. Moissant and Arch Hox-
sey, Americas foremost aviators,
were killed Saturday. Moissant met
his death when attempting to land
in a field several miles from New
Orleans at 1855 a. m Hoxsey, dis
playing his skill before another
crowd of thousands at Los Angeles,
lost control of his Wright bi-plane
and falling several hundred feet
was dashed to death.

prize recently in New York for circ

JOHN PAUL JONES' BONES.

There seems to a fair prospect
that, after a long time, the bones of
John Paul Jones are to be given
proper sepulture, says the Savannah
News. During several years they
have reposed in in a closet under a
stairway in the naval academy at
Annapolis. The naval committee of
the house has agreed to recommend
the needed appropriation of $135,-
600 for the preparation of a crypt
for the bones That is a pretty con-
siderable sum of money for a tomb,
but in Washington they never make
calculations of any sort except in
tens of thousands and hundreds of
thousands of dollars. However,
Americans will not grudge the first
American admiral his crypt What
they desire most is that he shall
be placed into it speedily and de-
Gently. He has been under the stair
STEPS long enough.

just Enough to Make Trouble.

Somebody who hadn't much else
to do has been counting up the num-
Der of offices Governor Smith will
have to pass around during his term
of office. According to the investi-
gator the governor will be host at
practically Barmecide feast, since
he will make only about thirty ap-
pointments in the two years, exclu-
sive Of his staff of honorary military
aides. That being true, there will
be just about patronage enough to
make more trouble than pleasure
for him, and not nearly enough for
the construction and greasing of a
political machine.

The committee on reapportion-
ment has agreed on a membership
based on 211,000 population, for the
national house of representatives.
This will prevent any state from los
ing a congressman, and incidentally
save the bacon of some congressman
now serving. 1t will also mean a
general shaking up in the Second
district and a loss of several coun-
ties, as it has an excess of more than
$4,000 people over that number.
Hon John R. Mercer will very
probably offer corn prizes again this
year, but they will be for the largest
net profits and not the largest yields
per acre. Mr.. Mercer was the first
to offer prizes to encourage better
methods of cultivation and larger
yields of corn in Georgia, but it has
now become a general custom and
proved to be Of inestimable value
to the material progress Of the state
New Years is an appropriate time
for the making of good resolutions
So is December 31st and January
23rd and August 18th, and there are
others. The man who does things
that are not good can and should
break away any time. Only stick af
ter you have pledged your manhood
to the new and better way.

CLEAN LIFE GLASS

We have started the new year with this for our motto: "All together for 100 boys by 19l1," and we believe we can do it.
 On the first Sunday in January we held our regular election of officers and the following were selected for the next three months: Edgar Myers, president Cowles McMahon, Jr., vice president; Earl C. Stapleton, secretary; Fred Farrow, Jr., corresponding secretary; Neal Bell, treas urer; Clarence Tucker captain of Blue; Hugh Duncan, captain of Orange.
 The attendance last Sunday was good 40 present We were glad to welcome three new members, Randolph Thornton,
 Ralph Quinn and Tyler Taylor.
 The boys are looking forward with pleasure to the entertainment soon to be given by the defeated side in the last contest. The boys with the aprons and the blacked faces will have to hustle to equal that last event.
 Last Sunday our teacher gave each of the members a pocket Testament in which he had written a beautiful inscrip- tion and had marked the most useful passages We are certainly proud of them
