THE STATES WORST
ENEMY

Wy 0uu6C n. d. WdthluS Vi l0AdS.J
Why does the state so abhor the sa-
loon on election day? Absolutely one
would think 1t no worse to sell whis-
key at one time than at another. 1t
knows only too well that this right of
free men and the sale of drink are
at hopeless war; that the liquor traf-
fic has always been the sworn enemy
of the honest ballot; that to furnish
the voter with whiskey would be like
arming a mailman. II the saloon be
the innocent and harmless thing its
advocates claim, why not unchain 1t
on election day?
But in spite of these and every 9TH
er precaution, the saloon is today the
gravest menace to an honest vote.
Not content with taking it's place in
society as a business simply, it is
ambitious to become a ruler.
Who ever heard of a drug store
ticket at an election? Who ever
heard of the family groceries, or the
shoe trade claiming the right to elect
their officers?
And yet one hardly need inquire
for any man that ever lived in a sa-
loon-ridden county or city that has
not heard of or voted for or against
the saloon ticket?"
1t is always there. And from con-
stable to governor those lords of vice
demand that society shall bow to
them. Many have wondered at the
cause and asked why a simple bust
ness should not be satisfied to be a
business simply. But the answer is
not far or hard to find.
The saloon seeks the election of
candidates who are willing or pledged
to do its bidding. 1t is needless for
another business, for it follows the
law. 1t is necessary for the saloon,
for it defiies the law.
Voter
Would you go behind bar and sell
liquor? Would you make money by
supplying drug that you knew would
degrade your neighbor? Would you
personally amass wealth to supply
you with which children were starv-
! ed, and weary mothers toiled hard for
a living to the neglect of their house
hold duties? Would you be willing
| to grow rich at the cost of the boys
made drunkards, girls driven to the
streets, homes broken down and lives
wrecked?
If a man asked you to give him in
writing declaration of your approval
of his carrying on business which
produced the results just set out,
would you write such letter for him,
even though he offered you the bride
of helping to pay your tax bills?
Today men say to you practically:
| Give me your vote in favor of the
barroom system, that / may carry on
a liquor business with nominal re-
spectability, and without fear of pun
ishment that I would incur if l sold
without license.
You cannot escape the responsible
,ity that goes with your consent to the
liquor business, if you, vote in favor
of it.
AS a patriot, as citizen, as Chris
tian, as one who desires the welfare
of American homes, and the uplift of
American manhood or womanhood,
will you be induced by any sophistry
or prejudice to vote in favor of the de-
grading traffic?
Then vote for "dry" men for the leg
islature on June 2.

still in politics to save the country
and not attempting to close fac
tories or disnantle smoke stacks.
That sort of talk used to be quite
effective years ago and was the
main stock in trade. 1t was quite
defective with the working classes
and as long as they believed it the
party was not to blame for using
it to get votes. But the working
people no longer swallow the CUFF
that was once so potent to separate
gullible people from their votes.
There is no questioning the fact
that there was a time when a ma
jority of the people of the country
really believed that a Democratic
president in the White House would
result in a closing of nearly all
manufacturing industries and a
general paralysis of business.
This wide spread belief tided the
Republican party over many a hard
campaign. But the candid Progress
sives of the party said that such
talk was getting musty and was
also untrue.
= They insisted Oil going before the
intelligent people Of the country on
issues that could be properly and
logically advocated.
This caused a split in the party
and resulted in a Democratic land
slide. The Democratic party has
been in tn" saddle nearly a year
and times have been constantly i'm.
proving since the tariff, currency
and income tax bills have been
passed. People begin to realize
that panics can no longer be made
to order in Wall Street that the
manufacturing industries so long
lying dormant are humming with
business; that the wealthy people
Of the country have to pay their
just proportion of taxes. They
realize that. the parcel post bill has
delivered them from the clutches
of the express companies. None
of these measures so beneficial TO
the general public would ever have
been on the statute book had the
Republican party remained in
power. The people are through
with the Republican party and its
musty issues. --Carson Appeal.

One Of the most remarkable rail-
roads In the world is to be built In
France, to run up the Aiguille du Midi,
which rises abruptly to a height of
1908 feet. The object Of the under.
taking will be to show the unmatched
glories Of Mont Blanc and its chain of
peaks and glaciers. Instead of run
ming on solid ground, however, like
most of the Swiss mountain railroads,
1t is to &c through the air. on pylons

glaciers. The starting station Of the
line is situated down In the Valley of

RAILROAD RULES, 1852
INTERESTING REMINDER OF
EARLY DAYS OF TRAVEL.
Instructions for Engineers and Con,
duetors Appear Lauahable In These
Days When the Science Of Rail-
reading Has Been Perfected.

A most interesting exhibit OF the
early days Of railroading in this Dur
try has been found.
1t is a schedule for passenger trains
and rules for the conduct of engine
men and conductors on the Wetsern &
Atlantic, which was at the time and
still is owned by the state OF Georgia.
The time table Is dated March 1, 1852.
and was issued by William Wadley, su-
~perintendent, father of George D. Wad-
ley, the latter for many years a
ager of the Central Railroad of Geor-
gia.
In the rules for enginemen and con
ductors III many which quaint
in this age of colossal railroading. OF
course the road had only one track,
and rule Ia for passenger conductors
shows that there must have been some
dispute when trains met as to which
train had the right to keep on its way
uninterrupted. This rule says:
A a general rule when trains meet
between stations the train nearest the
turnout will run back. Any dispute as
to which train is to retire is to be de-
termined at once by the conductors,
without interference on the part of the
enginemen. This rule is required to
be varied in favor of the heaviest load
ed engine. Or worst grades II they
meet lear the center"
Rule z gives the conductor direc-
tions for reporting on the number Of
passengers who are paying and the
number Of ministers Of the gospel who
were to be charged half price when on
business connected with their calling.
The same rule indicated that the gov-
ernor Of the state and the general su-
perintendent Of the road were the
only individuals who had a right to
give passes.
The conductor was ordered to In.
spect the running gear of his train at
every station and, In rule 10, was ad-
monished never to leave Atlanta or
Chattanooga without the mail or with
o u first sending to the postofice for
1t. Rule II says that a train stopping
at any station at night must Invariably
be run on the turnout 80 as to leave
the main track clear, and that strict
watch had to be kept in all cases
"ASAO - SOPPCo d ulSut.
In the regulations for passenger en-.
ginemen there are q number which
seem almost humorous In this period
Of railroad management. For instance,
the engineman was instructed that If
his train killed any stock and threw
the cow or COWS in such a position as
to %endanger the safety Of the next
train he was to stop his train and see
that the track was cleared.
Passenger trains were o to exceed
the speed Of their schedule except
when behind time, In which case the
speed might be increased three miles
an hour generally. In passing turn.
outs (the turnout evidently was the
switching track the speed had to be
diminished to six miles an hour.-Rail
