have encountered during other

No man should enter public life

can not stay in public life if he
permits criticism to turn him

Mrs. G. B. Lindsey, OF Atlanta, cor

She also uttered a scathing arraig1-

that if a woman had dared dress q

she would have been ostracized from
decent society and two generations
ago she would have been an outcast.

Pooling the Saloonkeeper.

There is one thing the saloon
keeper should not overlook in pass
Ing on the merits OF the Commission
Form OF government and IT is this;
Under the present form OF govern
ment. special gambling privileges
are granted on'y TO influential al
de-men, viii the saloonkeepers In
other wards are denied it. Under
the Commission Form OF govern
ment, all saloonkeepers will be
treated alike. and this is about all
any minded man can expect or
demand.
The opposition has been trying to
fool the saloonkeepers with the pro-
hibition bogy boo. 1t has tried to
make them believe the entire COM
mission plan law was created with
view to changing cities into dry
territory. This is all tom foo cry
and no one knows IL better than does
the corporation counsel. who ad-
dressed the meeting Thursday at the
National Palace
The saloonkeepers contribute over
100000 toward the support of Cairo
every year and unless a change Is
made in the form of government,
more money is apt to be demanded
from this source. Under the Com
mission Form of government, the
saloonkeeper would not be expected
to pay greater portion OF the ex-
penses OF maintaining the city.
There will be regulation under
the commission plan, but not the
kind the honest saloonkeeper OBJ
jects to and there WILL NOT be
discrimination.
