Less Beer Saloons
For Atlanta

Atlanta, June 10. Regardless
OF whether or not the prohibition
lists win any victories in the ap-
preaching session of the legis-
lature, or whether the Atlanta
prohibition fight is successful, it
begins to appear that there will
be considerably less number of
beer saloons in Atlanta after the
close of the fiscal year. A great
many of them. it is stated at city
hall, are failing to ask for new
licenses, on the simple ground
that they are not doing sufficient
business to pay the rent and
make them a reasonable profit.
In the meantime all the clubs
in Atlanta have filed petitions
for renewal of license and have
all been favorably recommended,
with the exception of the T. M.
A., which has not yet filed a Pc
tition.
Among the petitions for beer
licenses, of which the COMMITTEES
favorably recommended 1856,
three were held up on the objec-
ton raised that they sold alleged
beer at 5 cents a bottle, which
was so low, it was believed, that
a real beverage could not be pro-
duced at that price.

Ny Thoughts on Mothers Day.
when Mother was at home

(When Mother was at home)
In spite of my surroundings this Mothers day
l think OF my home where used to play
Though far from the spot dear to me | roam
think of the day when mother was at home
How dear the day of my childish eIee.
AS we played together my brother and me,
That home though humble, no place no where
Like the home of childhood when mother was there
The years in their cycles around me have rolled
MY joys and my sorrows have never told
The ravage of time shadows the cheer
VI my boyhood days when saother was there
Yes one summer day many years ago.
The good Father called my mother we know
The home remains but no mother there,
How sad to look on her vacant chair
With submission meek to our Father we bow.
And say in faith let it be so now
But over the river where the angles roam
will meet my mother in the home sweet home
love to think as the years 20 by
With the solemn thoughts that too must die
Of father and mother and kindred near,
Of the reunion in heaven when we all get there

Negroes Don't Like
VIM. J. Harris

Atlanta, June 81. IN egro
newspapers in Chicago and Bos-
ton are criticizing Hon. William
J. Harris of Georgia for mis- ac-
ton in segregating the negro EN-
ployes in the U. S. census bureau
at Washington. while he was d.
rector of the Census. His policy
IN this regard was clearly defined
and met with the approval not
only of the south but of the coun-
try at large. The only criticism
OF the segregation measure was
that which emanates from the
negro journals. Senator Harris
was shown the articles in ques-
ton when he visited Atlanta a
few days ago, but declined to
make any comment.
When he concluded his work
as director of the census. resolu-
lions were passed by the census
employees endorsing his admins
tration, and on his departure he
was presented by them with a
handsome token of appreciation.
