ignorance and meanness. In our ef

been narrow in that we have thought

to make race q test for citizenship.

"Mr. A. owns a tract Of unoccupied
suburban land. Mr.. b. oIvns some in

from which he is deriving a handsome
revenue. Rev. G. is a colored minister
interested in the moral and hygienic
welfare Of his parishioners. He ad-
vfses them to move out OF those unde-
sirable quarters. but is informed that
there are no other houses that coloreti
people can rent. Not to be balked, the
Rev. c. finds Mr.. A. and shows him
the advantage Of putting up rent
houses on his unoccupied land. 1t
looks good to Mr.. A.. and he proceeds
to act. Mr.. b. hears Of 1t and sets
about to keep his tenants. He at once
elicits the aid Of all the saloon keepers
and other merchants profiting by this
trade.
"Other landlords similarly situated
are natural allies. These form a nu-
cleus for an organization to. prevent
Negroes from encroaching upon the
residential portion of the city, etc.

800 FINED IN 1916.

"A glance at the police court
docket tor the year of 1916 shows
that Officers Handy and Wall,
Judge Amberg and Attorney
Powell have had a very pros
perous" year. There have been
a total of 800 convictions, produc-
ing something like $4,000 in
fines, the greatest number ever
stuck IN one year IN this
court. OF this number, 40 boot
leggers and 195 minor offense"
convictions have been made, in
addition to the others, charged
with various infractions of the
law. 1t is a compliment to the
court and his officers to say that
only five alleged local option law
violators escaped a fine, and
City Attorney Powell did his
durndest to convict them.

court clerk, authorizes the Cou-
rier to announce him as a candi-
date for reelection, subject to
the Democratic primary, August
4, 1917.
Mr.. Roper is too well known to
need any introduction to the vot-
ers and citizens of Fulton cOun-
ty. About all that is need to
be said in passing is that his long
experience has better qualified
him for the duties of his office.
As to the able and excellent man
ner in which he has filled this
office-no for the third term
we believe TINS is a matter of
common knowledge; a matter, at
least, upon which Mr.. Roper has
every reason to congratulate
himself. 1t Is needless to re
iterate the Importance of the

WEBB-KENYON Law
HELD TO BE VALID.

In the most sweeping of all
decisions upholding prohibition
laws, the supreme court Monday
upheld as constitutional and valid
the Webb-Kenyon law, prohibit
ing shipments of liquor from
wet" to dry" States. 1t al
so sustained West Virginia s re-
cent amendment to her law pro-
hibiting importation in interstate
commerce of liquor for personal
use.
After being vetoed by President
Taft, who held it unconstitutional
and having been repassed by
congress over his veto, the law
was sustained by the supreme
court by vote of z To 2. Lead
ers of the prohibition movement
declared it is to their fight sec
ond only in Importance to the
proposed constitutional amend
ment.
The decision is a great victory
for law enforcement. The States
may now prohibit the possession,
receipt, sale and use of intoxi-
eating liquor and not be hamper
ed by the agencies of interstate
commerce acting as bartenders
TO bring the liquor into the
States. The decision is new evi-
dence that the court of last re-
sort CONSTITUTES the federal consti-
tuition from time to time SO as
to keep step with progressing
history.
