"Dry" State Fills Cellar and Swears Off Georgia Lays in Large Supply Before Enforcing Lata

IVasiinglon (). C.) Herald Georgia went dry the other day with more liquor in the possession of the people than has ever been known in the history of the state. Such is the paradoxical news from. Atlanta. That the state has gone dry may not be news. It is so recorded every year. The people of Georgia adopted statewide prohibition ncmly ten years ago and the legislature has been amending the law ever sir trying to make it effective. The pi bitionists-have admitted that the brand of prohibition in Georgia did not prohibit. The more rigid the provisions of the law, the more indifferent have been the people to the law. The indifference to the prohibition luv has developed an indifference to all law, until some respectable authorities in Georgia have called the state lawless. The last legislature in trying to make prohibition prohibit, followed the -example of the farmer with the balky horse; when he couldn't make the horse pull, he kicked an innocent cow. The legislature amended the law so as to permit each c.tizen to import two quarts of whiskey or twentyfour q jrts of beer each month, and then prohibited the newspapers of the state from printing liquor advertisements. It must be admitted that the law has more prohibition in it now than it had before, but it is not against the sale or use of liquor. It harks back to a time when Georgia placed restrictions on reading upon certain parts of the population. The Georgians may mako liquor without taxationif they can dodfro the federal revenue agents; they may use liquor and import it, but they must not In .alloiwid to read about it.

So all the people of G'oi'gi.i have taken time by the forelock ard stored liquors against emergencies. . The moonshiners of Gerr.'jia appear to be the only people in the state who want the law to be retroactive. T'--are opposed to storing when th uv'? in a position to supply the d iar-1 from day to day. The economies ot' the Internal Revenue Bureau have compelled a reduction of the reve.n 0 agents in Georgia and the cutting ot of the pay of informers who last yeai . enabled the federal government to seize and destroy about 1,500 moonshine stills in that state. With the curtailment of the efforts of the ft deral revenue officers and the sympafr; ' of local prohibition officers, the moonshiners feel that it was a miscarrhuj of justice to allow the people to import and store large quantities if liquor before the law went inro effort. They will make an effort to have tlie law against storing declared retroactive. Washington ( ). C.)IfcraU, .Liy $.

ELECTRICITY.

Why It t Difficult For th' Layman m Undrstand What It la. ''What is electricity V is a f arorIte query with people who desire to "fet a rise" out of a scientific man. And when he fails to answer it in tke same simple fashion that ha might treat the question "What i a biscuit?" the questioner cries out : "Aha ! You profess to know ail about electricity. Whyyou canV tTen tell what it is!"Now, to "tell bct a thing is" that is, to define it is to state its relations ith something more fa miliar thing ing if: .e particular familiar the questioner is thmU lib cuff is ordinary mac1 . . ter, him wa nude of 1... bling iu:j n.. explained t :no:i of material uar .
