THE DECAY OF THE SALOON

The Christian Herald: 1t is well to

Gus publication i'll many quarters, to de
nonstrate the utter failure of prohlbl-
ton in the South The result has been

ton of affairs in several states. A read
er this journal in Georgia directs atten-
tention to this species of exaggeration
and says 1T is the purpose of the
liquor forces to publish in one state
what lamentable failure prohibition
has proven to be i'll another state. Geor-
gia CONSUMES some liquor yet; but the
open barroom there is thing of the
past The Atlanta Georgian dealing
with the subject says:
Georgia hos prospered under prohi-
bition 1t has increased in wealth and
population. while Atlanta has leaped to
second place among the cities of the
South. Exploded beyond repair is the
old contention that prohibition hurts
business. 1t hurts only the whiskey
business and boosts all others. Atlanta
was never in the midst of such business
and building activity as it is now. In
Atlanta, moreover. prohibition has de-
creased drunkenness, crime and disor-
der. This has been shown by indisput-
able statistics. Prohibition has killed
the old whiskey saloon--an organized
force corruptive both of society and OF
politics: and the law has been enforced
too. perhaps as well as could have been
respected of any law passed over oppo-
1sition as strong. Sentiment for its bet
ter enforcement is growing everywhere

with all its faults. Georgia will cling tc
it still"
The Georgian goes further and claims
that the impression has been given BY
the liquor organs that one by one tht

POLITICIANS WORRIED

Ruston leader: The closed-mouth
game being played by the Good Govern
mcnt League and its officers seems to
he worrying the state politicians and
ward hcclcrs no little 1t keeps them
guessing what the league will do. For
some time the ringsters have kept them
selves busy trotting out the name OF
first one prominent man and then an
other for governor, senator or some
other state office for the inspection OF
and endorsement by the league, only to
learn later that the league will not bite
at the bait and continues to saw wood
and say not word.
Usually the gentlemen brought int

their knowledge or consent. refuse t
become candidates and promptly an
nounce their refusals through the press
of the state. But, for love of the league

tinued with the hope that they may yct

PURGING THE REGISTRATION
ROLLS,

In New Orleans the Good Govern
aaeilt League has begun an all important
enquiry into the registratio nrolls.
In New Orleans there has been prac-
faced for years system of political
fraud which has enabled a coterie of
men to dominate that city and the State
10 their own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
1t is the Good Government League
which developed and exposed the recent
political rascality for which the culprits
we're. on their own. plea of guilty, as
signed to eight months imprisonment.
One of the prolific sources for ras-
caiity is through the registration rolls,
and therefore such investigation, con-
Quoted fairly and fearlessly, must re-
suit in the elimination Of the dead and
the fictitious who have been voted with
audacity by the gang on the day Of the
election
The registration is also convenient for
those who have removed their domicIle,
but while gone have had their poll tax
paid by the individuals who expect to
control their votes when they are need
ed on the day Of the election.
Any person who, having moved his
domicile, and has been absent from the
State two years and of the parish one
year, can not vote, and to vote he is re-
CURED to re-establish his citizenship as
is provided by law.
There are other points connected with
the registration rolls which may be in
vestigated with profit and which may be
applied to Shreveport. In the express
ion of these views no reflection IS in
timated on the registrar of Caddo par
ish who has been diligent and dtttiful IN
the discharge of his duties He is gov
erned by the law and his compliance
with its requirements is all that can be
expected of him.
