A Half Century
Battle
BY Rev. 7. 8. Gregory

TIME destruction of Port Royal

The famous Cisterciau Abbey was
founded. in 1904. by Matilda, wife of
Montmorenci-M arh. Failing into
decay, 1t was retounded IN 1905 by
Jacqueline Marie Arnauld, and in
1868 II became the storm-Centre of
battie that kept all France a-shak-

The tempest began with Bishop
Jansens book on Grace and Free
VIII, in which he took the ground
Gin the name of the great Angus
tinel thai It was the Grace of God,
rather than the human will. that
counted IN the work Of salvation
The Jesuits who held the whip hand
in the Church at the time, declared
war on "Jansenism," and the big
men of Port Royal. led by Arnauld
and Nicole, stood forth as Jansen's
INchampions
The fray soon became universal
Every learned society in France be
came involved.
II was the Gentlemen of Port
Royal" against the field, and, of
course, the gentlemen OF Port Royal
were finally beaten.
But the greater thing about the
Port Royal fight was a little book by
Blaise Pascal, which is known to i'm
mortality as the Provincial Letters

that have ever lived. and the PROV

Five Remained Open.

There were five clubs that did
not close-did not respect the
Mayors request What DID the
detective department do about
that? What WILL the detective
department do about it?
But Chief Beavers says that
the day was more quiet than il
ever was in the years Of open
sale. Remember the law closed
all sales places in those days.
This speech of the chief ap-
piled to the white people.
There We're three murders
committed-and a dozen or more
stabbing and pistol cases made
on Christmas Day-AMONGST
THE NEGRO POPULATION
ALL DRUNK.
What does this show? Ne
groes are not permitted to have
locker clubs. How then could
they have procured the whisky
that crazed them, and led to such
awful crime in one day?
THEY GOT IT FROM THE
BLIND TIGERS. THESE NEN-
Err CLOSE-THESE CAN NEY-
Err BE CLOSED.
Does the thought of Atlanta
want to substitute white blind
tigers, that respect no sugges-
ton looking to good order, re
gard 10 law seeking protective
control, for the orderly system
which now obtains, where all
clubs are managed by responsi-
BILE, home-loving boards, and al
beer saloons are operated By
men whose correct department is

General Council?

tense of destruction, which is bui

Editor The Georgian:
tn HERE is a volume OF moral
caution in the admonition:

II 10 d NoluuIS VI HUI al
caution in the admonition:
Let we'll enough alone"
This is particularly true when
applied to the outrageous pros
titution of justice in the policy
of Atlanta's detective department,
which resulted in a so-called
raid on seven locker clubs of At
lanta in the downtown district,
when the same raiders, knowing
of seven locker clubs in the up
town district, deliberately gave
them immunity.
1t is true when it is possible to
apply it to a threatened invasion
of personal rights, and conf1sca-
ton of property interests, as these
belong to one class of citizens,
and the protection of these same
rights and interests as they be-
long to another class of citizens,
should our courts of so-called
justice allow this wanton class
ism in arrests to go unrebuked
1t is likewise true when applied
to the overzealous efforts of lot
of professional uplifters, who
would, by arbitrary insistence,
endanger the peace, the liberty
and the business veal of the city
and State, merely to carry their
mania for reforming things.
A Fable.
These methods strikingly sug-
gest the fable of the dog cross
ing a foot log, with bone in
mouth. Upon seeing it's shadow
in the water, the greedy animal
let fall the substance in an eff
fort to mouth the reflected bone.
The radicals who, through leg
islative hold-up, secured the pas
sage of an act prohibiting the
sale Of liquor in Georgia, upon
finding that public sentiment,
which had never been tested,
would not stand for the undesired
legislation, passed a tax act.
which hberalized the measure so
that the law abiding citizen
might enjoy himself under rea-
Sonable restraint
They would now make nuga-
10 oil
locker club and beer saloon in the
State, and deny the public treas
ury the money that comes through
these sources for the support of
our eleemosynary institutions.
They see the shadow of reform
in the deceptive waters of prohi-
bition, and would let go the sub
stance of control in their eager
desire to revel in empty conquest
Never content with victories
won: never considering that any
contract, whether expressed or
implied, is binding, except on the
opposition; always demanding
that some new screw. it matters
not, be borne down into the lid
of restraint: these overworked
Zealots would throw their cause
into the maelstrom of vicious
conditions, in an utterly foolish
effort to control the human appe-
tie and legislate the threats Of
men.
That whisky is a curse no sane
man will deny. Morphine and
cocaine are curses. They are
likewise great blessings. Wheth-
er curse or blessing, intoxicating
fluids have been used for a time
whereof the memory of man run
meth not to the contrary. 1t has
been demonstrated that legisla-
ton does not and can not prevent
the use of whisky. Christ did not

IT HE young girl who has come to the great city
hears many voices. Two speak loudest. One
is the voice of her mother, bidding her watch her

bring pleasure and happiness, and that the doors be-
hind which the brightest lights CLEAN will swing
