ter, in accordance with advance notice
spoke in the court house in this city
Saturday afternoon.
A fair audience greeted him and
paid marked attention to his red hot
shots at the demon rum and the whis-
key traffic. His theme was "law and
order in Georgia" and to say he handl-
ed his subject in a masterful manner
would but family express it.
Taking up the question of personal
liberty DR.. Small handled it in a
most unusual manner. With the bit
terest and most telling sort of sar-
casm, he convincingly disputed the
right of any mans personal rights" ;"

States rights was one of the main
issues that brought about secession,

people of the South were the most
ardent for national prohibition. The
reason for this lies in the fact that no

is passed by any state of the Union,

contents went home to the Riddles who
would be standing at the station with
little brown bare knees to meet him
in Cos Cob, or Mahwah, or Suffern. or
New Canaan, or Far Hills, or Katonah.
or Summit, n. J. In the box were
twelve candies and a suffrage poem:
Within this box are suffrage sweets.
Their number twelve, we pray you note,
A stick for every western state
Where women have the right to vote.
Wyoming first set woman free
Then Colorado, Idaho
And Utah followed; then there came
Arizona, Illinois,
Kansas, faroff Washington.
Montana, California,

Pray help more suffrage states to win,
So that twill take larger box
