VIOLATE OITY ORDINANCES.
Some of the citizens of Ha.vti. who
liuvo been for months, and somi' of
them years, llagranll.v violating the
ordinances of the City of Ha.vti, 1
keeping unclean stable, barns and
lots, aie going to lind a roek, road to
travel from now on. We believe our
mayor will not hesitate to enforce the
laws of our eit,. where the violations
ure open and violent and interfere
with the peace, comfort and health of
others, and being a doctor he is fully
aware of the great injury to health
that such places can be.
We believe that in the majority, of
instances the parties aie entirely un
mindful and in some cases ignorant of
the fact that the eitv has the most
stringent laws regulating these things,
and the lines imposed tiff heavv.
We desire no one to he harmed
or sillier for ignorant or careless vio
lations of the law, anil fortius reason
we are taking this matter up now, and
we shall trt to show the people what
the law is, so then if the.v violate the
law, knowing the law, it is no pitv
when the.v are punished. So take
heed of this now, and do not blame
tiny one but yourself if you must be
torced to lespect the laws of the town
in which ion live.
STOCK LAW
Challee has passed a stock law,
which will be enforced Maicli 1, and
the people are planning to plant trees
and go to work to hcautlf.v the town,
while poor old llati, the best located
town on the Frisco between St. Louis
and Memphis, still sits in the "lap of
do-nothing," waiting for old Father
Time to bear her hence. At least this
is the way it seems ti us.
We are getting tiled of wasting our
energies and space lor tin- good of
this town unless our clloi Is an- to be

do?
Did son ever notice how nice and
real lovely some men can be when
they want you to assist them to .some

when you have helped them into that

have also noticed that such a person
makes a very poor ollicial and very
rarely serves but one term. What the
world wants is dependable men, men
of broad minds, who are the same un
der all conditions and circumstances.
South vs. the North on Prohibition
intemperate drinker was tho only de
fense of tho saloon, they would go
down, but everywhere, on the farm, in
tho village, at tho shop in tho city,
behind tho desk and the bank railing
you will find the moderate drinker,
and they stand in defense of this right.
Thoy do not feel inclined to give up
what thoy consider a benefit and en
joyment to them for the wrong doing
and sins of those who go boyond tho
bounds of reason and abuse themselves
by drinking to an excess.
It is truo that a great per cent, of
want and crime and poverty and
suffering is caused by drunkeness, but
conditions are improving in this re
spect every day and the laws are be
coming so strict against selling to any
habitual drunkard or minor that it is
dillicult for them to indulge them
selves. Note to Ed. I had the above pre
paied before I read what you had to
say about a thorough discussion of
the matter, but as you want to get
down to cold facts, here they are
Maine, the mother of prohibition
legislation, passed the so-called
"Maine law'" in 1844.
Illinois enacted prohibition in 18oG
and repealed it the same year at the
polls.
New York passed a law in lt!."4 and
gave it up in 18.r)0.
Massachusetts tried prohibition fif
teen years and repealed it.
Atlanta, Ga.. had a prohibition law
for one year, and repealed it in 18S7.
Connecticut enacted the law in 1854,
continued it for 18 years and repealed
it in 182.
Ohio enacted prohibition in 1W55 and
after a few months icpcaled it. Mary
land tried it in 185 for a lew months.
New Hampnhire has had a prohibi
tory law (not applying to manufac
ture) for .'14 years.
Deleware tried it for two years, be
ginning in 1855.
A prohibitory law was twice enacted
in Wisconsin and vetoed by the gov
ernor. Rhode Island had ten years' prohi
bition, lbVl-li:).
Michigan passed the law in 185.1 and
abandoned it in 187o.
Indiana and Nebraska passed pro
hibitory measueres in 1855 and both
soon repelled them.
Tennessee voted on prohibition in
1887 and it lost.
Kansas in 1881 and Iowa in 1882
adopted prohibitory amendments to
their constitutions, where they still
remain.
North and South Dakota have con
stitutional pi obibition.
Georgia and Alabama have consti
tutional peohibition.
Tennessee has statutory piohihi
bitiou. Oklahoma has constitutional prohi
bition. Now, as you won't permit ol any
argument or lengthy discussion on the
subject, 1 will answer your question
by asking you one. Why has Tenn
essee been (15 years lliiding out that
Maine was right, and why didn't
(ieorgia emulate New lluiiipshiic .'!.!
years ago?
Yours truly ,
1. S. HaVI'NSTT.IN.
Nii'i'i:: We can hrielly answer the
question put to us by saying that it
did not "take Tennessee (W years to
liuil out that Maine was right," but
lack of power tor about (15 yearn to
enact such a law. The .same answer
will ap ly to (ieorgia. We neither
admit or deny, however, "that Maine
was right." See the point? El). J
southern, simply becauso I am a Re
publican, as this is not a political
question.
Should you ask mo why a rotten
apple left its branch boforo tho hoalty
one? I would say through somo dis
cord of nattiro that killed it, and as
bile and booze makes a bad mixture
it brings on many extremes to mind
and body and forces many actions
that would not otherwise como if people
would deal more temperate. And now
this is my argument in tho case, that
tho north is more temperate than the
south in liquor drinking, which I say
is due to the fact of malaria.
REPUBLICAN.
This closes the question. At some
future time wo may put on pants for
deep wading and express our views.

Human Nature
Newspaper Man What made you
scowl at that fellow who has just gone
out?
Dank Ollicial lie's one of those who
aie always telling me how to run my
bank. A man that thinks he knows
how to manage another fellow's busin
ess better than the other fellow knows
how to do it himself is always a nui"
sance. You ought to jump on such
men. If I was running that paper of
youis. By George, I' d er-er. Curious
kind of weather we're having, isn't itV
If you don't see it in the Herald it

While thf north ha, never outlined

itself into a plan, and that plan is

such a high standard of moralitv that

Prohibition vs. Mosquitoes
"A. Citizen" is not alone in an
swering our question, and the follow
letter would indicate that if the sa
loon men would make waron theuast.v
little malarial bearing mosquito the.v
would stamp out the abnormal thirst
for booze and the south would not go
drj. Here it is:
Hear Editor. I wish to cut out tho
correct answer as to "wli.v the south
leads in prohibition?"
Tho northern people are mote nor
mal than the southern people and deal
more temperate, hence the liquor trunk
is more hazardous in the south than
in the north, whHi is due to the ex
lieineb.v southern peoplt. An extreme
is bad in anj thing. You can eat too
much just as well as drink, and this
is the matter that it has seemed im
possible to adjust.
We know that in a malarial coun
tr, thoieis more liquor drank and the
people have a greater craving for it,
due to the e licet that malaria has on
the s.v stem, The south is a malarial
countr.v, and for this leasou the peo
ple have een greater excess of drink
ing and have been aroused to action.
I don't mean to miv that the north-
