The news last week of the de-

nent to the Rose law. was quite
gratifying to our good temper
ance people. We hope the end
of effort to change that law is
now at an end. If any changes
should be made to the law, they
ought to be to render the law
more efficient to prohibit and not
to enlarge the traffic in intoxica-
ting liquors. It is really difficult
to understand how any person
desiring the best interests of the
people or state could either give
his vote or voice for any measure
to legalize the saloon, whose op-
erations are evil and only evil,
and that continually, yet it is a
fact, we have such people who
justify their acts and place drunk

useless, and I haveno argument

such persons has no place in the

istic persons who say the law a.

be repealed; that prohibition is a

improvements at Davenport

The Davenport Messenger, the pa
per of the new Florida colony says:
Mr.. D. Nelson who was here some
time ago and made arrangements
for building store, returned last
Tuesday, with his family prepared
to rush his building along, and work
on which has already begun. AS
we noted in last issue, this is to be
a great improvement to Davenport.
Mr.. Nelson is a practical and sue
cessful business man and he and
his wife are the most enthusiastic
Davenport boosters that have come
to town lately. The building that
Mr.. Nelson is erecting is to be
tWo-story structure, the lower floor
to be occupied by his department
store and the upper floor to be
used for public hall for lodges and
other social gatherings. He is
building on Florida Highway just
north of the Manohan & Dodge
Mercantile Co.'S store.

100000 Campaign Fund Declined :
By Col. J. Pope Brown.
Irresponsible Parties" Offered Prohibition Candidate
Enormous Doodle Fund to Advocate Local Option.

| O'Kelly. The minister did not give
any name but | have no hesitancy
in saving that Col. Brown was the
candidate to whom the contribution
was offered.
Col. Brown was approached by
responsible parties" shortly after
his Waycross address. He was told
that his speech read we'll and waJN
entirely satisfactory in all but one
respect. If he would add just a
few words to his original declara-
ton, by advocating local option in
Georgia he was assured that he
could have a campaign fund Of
100000 at his disposal.
THE campaign contribution was
declined by Col. Brown, who III
formed the people with whom he
was talking that he would rather 60
down in defeat than to be elected
through the aid Of such influence.
He declared that he had ever been
a stanch prohibitionist and could
under no circumstances consider
advocating any change in the law
that miShr imn9ir the usefulness 0f
the present prohibition statute"
RUssELL's MANAGER TALKS.
James B. Nevin, Judge RusseliS
campaign manager, declares that
he knows nothing Of any campaign
contribution and that Judge Russell
is making the race as a local op-
ZIONIST because he believes in the
principle Of individual liberty and
local self government, which are
democratic.
Judge Russell has always been a
local opdonist, as his life's record
shows" said Mr.. Nevin. He stood
for local option as a member of the
state legislature, and he is only
consistent in advocating local op-
ton as a candidate for governor.
Il observe that the Rev. Dr..
O'KelIey declares that the offer of
the campaign contribution was de-
clined by the candidate to whom
the tender was made. Judge Rus
sell is advocating local option NOW,
so it is evident that he was not the
candidate 10 whom the minister re-
ferred.

Issues Statement.

Atlanta. Oct. 14.-W. D. UpshaW,
of Atlanta, editor of THE Golden
Age" and an active prohibition
leader in Georgiaegave out the fol-
lowing statement this morning
with reference to the political stu
alton in the Southern part of the
state:
Il have just returned from a lee
ture tour in South Georgia, covering
Worth, Thomas, Colquitt, Tit, and
Turner counties, and am delighted
to find the enthusiasm with which
rock-ribbed prohibitionists are lining
up behind Pope Brown. They are
highly pleased with his unequivo-
cal announcements that he has
always fought liquor in every form,
bar-rooms, dispensaries and law
breaking beer saloons.
They say they want the genuine
article in this campaign, and mas
much as a democrotic legislature
has passed a statewide prohibition
law they don't want to see any
backward steps.
AT the little town of Mystic on
yesterday, seventeen men were in
one store when somebody proposed
a straw ballot on the governors race.
The result was II to nothing in
in favor of Pope Brown"

Dick Russell Will Not Resisn

Atlanta, Oct, 14-The statement
made by Judge Richard B. Russell
at Swainsboro that he would not
resign from the appellate court
bench occasioned no surprise and
very little comment in Atlanta for
the simple reason that Judge Rus
sell had declared his exact intent
ions to his friends from the very
first. The principal criticisms of
Judge Russell for not resigning to
make the race have come from
men politically opposed to Judge
Russell entirely independent Of
that side issue.

With one candidate declining to
accept a contribution of 100000
from the liquor interests predicated
only on his advocacy of local option
and with another slapDin9 the face
of one of his auditors at a political
meeting, the Georgia gubenatorial
campaign is, indeed, looking up.
Verify, it seems that the governors
race is not to be without ginger,
Col. Pope Brown, prohibition can
didate, declined point blank to &C
cept a contribution Of 100000
from responsible parties" if he
would amend his Waycross' speech
by the insertion of a local option
plank.
Judge Richard B. Russell, local
option candidate, is reported to
have slapped the face of j. E. Will
helm, at SWainsboro, because the
latter called him q liar for asserting
that he (Wilheim) was in the pay
of another candidate.
The incident with reference to
the alleged campaign contribution
occurred-supposedly in Atlanta
shortly after Col. Pope Brown open
ed his campaign at Waycross.
The Russell-Wilheim difficulty
happened ct Swainsboro; Emanuel
county, last Tuesday, following a
campaign speech by Judge Russell.
