BLIND TIGER IN GEORGIA.
Wright Tells How His state Handles
Problem.

At the evening service, Wright ex-
planned the blind tiger" act in Geor.
gia.
1--WE don't prosecute blind tigers
there and We don't have a law to pros
ecute them" said Mr.. Wright. I'm
stead we enjOin them. That is, the
Judge of the circuit court issues an
injunction against the sale of liquor
Any one can complain against a per-
son by merely writing a note to the
Judge, and when the judges personal
orders are disobeyed, the culprit suf-
fers.
Back there in the COS your dad
dies said we were multiplying the laws
down south. What did they do? Did
your daddies sit down like bunch of
whining kittens and say they couldn't
go a thousand miles down south Just
to make us fellows quit multiplying the
laws No, they took up their muskets,
kissed their wives and babies goodbye
and came after US. They died for the
law and today our southern grave
yards are filled with the graves of
your northern soldiers.
Draws Application.
Some of your people say, Well,
the men are going to drink booze any
how. If we don't sell it they will get
it somewhere else. We might as we'll
get the revenue as any other place
But 1t is wrong. and what is wrong
should be outlawed. Don't you see
that when the public sanctions a sa-
loon it changes the whole aspect of
the thing to your boy? Don't you
know that a cowardly, skulking, sneak,
ing blind tiger won't influence an or
binary, open and above board Ameri,
can boy? How is a father who votes
wet to look into his sons face and
say, Stay out of the saloon, boy. It's
damnable.'
"The whiskey interests are a
monopoly. There is no more brutal
arrogant, money loving trust in
America. The men that control the
booze trust can be counted on your
fingers And since the Civil war. they
have accumulated a vast wealth OF
$4,000, 0OO,0 900.
What has given it its value? Just
one thing-men and women who drink
If all the men and women of this
country were sober, that 50, 900, 600, 600
property interest would not be worth
81 and the masters of the trust know
it. Take the averice out Of the liquor
and brewery interests and put con-
sciences in them instead and they
would die a natural death"
Chinese students have invented an
alphabet for their language.

Why. yes, of course. How else
would you keep them clean?"
We'll, there's mops and brushes now

Explains Blind Tigers.
81 know there are blind tigers all
over the state. But the complaints
come mainly from those places where
county vote put out the saloons and
the local sentiment did not uphold the
county vote. In a wet city every sa-
loon keeper is an agent to stop the
blind tiger from competing with him.
But what does your mayor say?
And he is supposed to be privately in
sympathy with the vets He is cred
tied with saying, 4 will see that the
liquor laws are carried out here if l
have to get the militia to carry them
out. This administration won't stand
for blind tigers if the town votes dry.

Mr. Johnson also took up the taxa
ton and the licensing of a saloon and
declared that the money which goes
into the school funds from liquor
licenses does not amount to a drop
in the bucket"
Seaborn Wright based his speech on

the vets to every citizen of Richmond
