A VOICE OF AUTHORITY--
As Abraham Linojn grew older, and while he was president of the United States,
he was still true to vdiat he believed, and he was always brave enough to say
what he thought. He said:
“Good citizenship demands and requires that what is right should not only
be made known but be made prevalent; that what is evil-should not only be de
tected and defeated, but destroyed. The saloon has proved itself to be the great
est foe, the most blighting curse, of our modern civilisation, and this is the rea
son why I am a practical prohibitionist. “

TO AMEND BILL
FOR THE DRUGGISTS
Outcome of Battle In House
Awaited By All
Georgia.
Judge W. A. Covington stated Tues
day morning that tha Hardman-Cov-
ington prohibition bill would porhapa
b, amended In two important particu
lars when it cornea up for passage
Wednesday.
These amendments, which a major
ity of the advoeatoa of the prohibition
bill are balieved to favor, aeok to al
low aurgeona to keep pure alcohol for
«u in hospitals ana In their practice,
and to allow retail druggists to keep
purs alcohol on hand for uao in filling
the prescriptions of reputable physi
cians, and also to allow wholesale drug
gists te keep pure alcohol for tale to
retailers.
When the house of representatives
convenes at 9 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing to take up the prohibition bill for
j>a*.«age. the antl-prohlbltlonlsts will
make an effort, It la reported, to pack
the galleries to the exclusion of the
supporters of the prohibition bill.
It Is stated on good authority Tues
day that the whisky dealers have or
ganised for that purpose, and will at'
tempt to nil the galleries, which are
open to tha public early In the morn'
log.. t
The prohibitionists, will go to the
rspltol In large numbers to watch the
light for the bill'and there probably will
be an exciting struggle for the posses
Hon of the galleries of the house.
; Under the rules of the house, no ap
plaune nor disorder will be permitted
In the galleries nor on the floor of the
house. If this rule can not be other
wise enforced, the sergeant-at-arma
will be ordered to clear the gatlerlea of
til visitors. -
Antis Hold Cauoua.
Although they held what waa gener
ally considered a caucus relative to the
prohibition bill. In the speaker's room
at the capitol Tuesday morning, the
opponents of the measure declare that
they have arranged no definite program
for fighting the prohibition bill when
It comes up for passage Wednesday
morning.
According to a statement made by
Messrs. Hines and Blackburn, two op
ponents of the bill, the members of the
opposition will only contend for what
they consider "their rights” In regard
to the passage of the measure.
The opponents of the bill decline to
state whether they will filibuster In the
effort to defeat the passage of the bill
Or what other steps they will take to
accomplish the same purpose,
It was rumored Tuesday morning
that the same tactics might be em
ployed again by the opposition that
were resorted to lost Friday, when the
till came up for a aecond reading.
These were the introduction of ion*
[Ills requiring hours In which to read
[hem, and the call for the "ayes” and
Days" on all motions.
If this be the case, say the prohibi
tionists Tuesday, they Will Immediately
•uspend the rules by a three-fourths
majority, as waa done Friday, and bring
[he bill up for passage, regardless of
the efforts of the opponents to prevent
a- Prominent supporters of the bill
stated Tuesday that the bill will either
pass the house Wednesday or the legls-
" tu J» will not adjourn until 12 o’clock
Wednesday night, and that the light
will then be continued along the same
lines until the end of the session.
Just who will lead the fight on the
HU Is not known. It is believed In some
quarters that Mr. Hall, of Bibb, will
throw himself Into the breach which
[he lss Ue has squarely drawn and will
[«nd the strength of his strong arm to
the cause of the antl-prohlbltlonlsts.
.Mr. Hall la very reticent In regard
•? ,he Part he will take In the fight,
'hould there be one, but he has al-
Wady stated on the floor of the house
that he Is opposed to any effort,to de
my bringing the measure to a vote.
‘t l» practically certain, however,
[hat Mr. Hall will assist In the effort
carr y the house In favor of the sub-
»t tute for the bill, which does away
the open saloon and allows the
•ale of whisky In the original package,
•bd that he will also take part In the
pffort to amend tha hill so aa to make
“*» Into effect January 1, 1909, should
“t nubstltute be voted down.
But whatever turn the fight for and
“jmnst the bill may take. It Is certain
mat no measure ever aroused one-half
IS* Interest that Is now centered In this
Mil. and when hostilities begin Wed-
"* M »y morning tha opening engage-
™nt will be witnessed by one of the
:; r *"’t crowds that ever'assembled In
•he legislative halt of Georgia.
To the Women of Georgia—
On Wednesday of this week the prohibition bill comes up for
passage in the Georgia legislature. Already women from several
Georgia cities have reached here, and others have notified us that
they will come. We want every woman who can to come to At
lanta to be present on this memorable occasion. Sacrifice some
thing and be on hand.
This act is as important as the Declaration of Independence,
so see it passed. Be there to join in the song of thanksgiving and
the shout of praise that will go up’ from thousands of hearts
that day. Be sure to be at the capitol at 10 o'clock. If you
can’t get in, wai ton the outside and pray.
We need you—cornel Yours for Dry Georgia,
MARY HARRIS ARMOUR.

Washlngtqn, July . 33.—The depart
ment of Justice is watching with con
siderable Interest the situation In North
Carolina. Should ' Governor Glenn
show fight against Judge Pritchard's
decision of yesterday, , releasing the
agents of the Southern railway, there
will be extended-all the aid at the com
mand of the Federal government.
The opinion prevails, however, that
the governor will be brought to see
the futility of opposing the nutlunarud-
mlntstratlon, and that he will aloltv the
case to proceed In orderly fashion to
the supreme court of the. United
States.
This tribunal Is now In recess and
will not resume Its labors until October
14. Assurances have already been
given that the government wilt ask for
speedy adjudication after the appeal
has been brought before the supreme
court.
If the state authorities should decide
to Ignore Judge Pritchard's decision
and either Interfere with the liberty of
the men released yeeterday or proceed
with the prosecution with other cases,
against which Injunction has been Is
sued, the department of Justice will
respond promptly to any Judge's plea
for assistance In enforcing his decl-

cording to a high authority here, the

Its refreshing services, managed In
some Inexplicable way to. force the
mercury down two degrees between
noon and 1 o'clock Tuesday.
Indoors It was eUsIngly, suffocating

long In discovering the delights of
porch, window and shady lawn. The
12-mlle-nrt-hour hreeae swept White

region, he stood with arms outstretched
for ’ fully four minutes, while a grin
of delight played havoc with the digni
ty of his expression. Pedestrians paused
to do the umo In a lees radical posture,
then hurried on to stuffy offices.
Beginning at 7 o'clock, with the tem
perature the same as on Monday, the
mercury kept a little below the marks
of that record-breaking day. and at 1
o'clock, before the usual time, began
to descend. The weather man can
ascribe no cause for this, except that

A determined attempt to eacape
shortly after noon Tuesday by three
convicts, resulted In a desperate battle
between the convicts and a guard at
the works of the Palmer Brick Com
pany, and as a result Ben Beasley and
H. L. Hartman are In the camp hos
pital, believed to be In a dying condi
tion.
Luther Gloer, the third convict, was
not Injured and. escaped, but later went
hark and surrendered. Guard O. Dun
can, whose Winchester shotgun brought'
down the two eontlcte,. was not. In
jured. although the desperate men
fired fully fifteen shots at him. '
Shortly after dinner was flnlshed-and
while the convicts were resting before
beginning workln the afternoon, Beas
ley,'Hartman and Gloer worked their
way around toward where Guard Dun
can was alttlng. Then the three
flashed revolvers and os they made a
dash for liberty they opened up on the
guard with their guns.
Duncan brought his shotgun Into
play as soon as possible and when
Beasley had gone about 76 yards he
was brought to the ground with a load
of shot In the abdomen, nnd another
shot stopped Hartman, the load enter
ing his back.
Gloer was not hit and succeeded In
getting away. In a short time, how
ever. he made his appearance at the
brick yard and surrendered. The two
wounded men were taken to the camp
hospital and the surgeon gave It as hla
opinion that both would die.
All three are white and all of them
young men. Beasley was sent up for
twenty years from Habersham for
manslaughter. Hartman, who Is about
21 years old, got six years In the Ful
ton superior court for highway rob
bery, while Gloer, also about 21 years
old, waa sent up for alx years from
Fulton for burglary.
Tha attempt to eacape la now being
Investigated by the camp officials, and
an effort Is being made to find out how
the men aecured their pistols. Ned
only did each of the three convicts have
a revolver, but all were well supplied
with ammunition, having about 100
cartridges.
That the guard waa not killed la con
sidered little short of miraculous. For
a few minutes he was the center of a
murderous Are, aimed at him by each
of the three desperate men. Their aim,
however, was spoiled by their frantic
haste to get away, and they tried to run
and shoot at the same time.
Monday night Pearson's store at 262
Peters street was burglarised and sev
eral pistols ' and shotguns stolen, to-
gi iler with a supply of cartridges. Tho
police are Inclined to believe that this
burglary had something to do with tho
supplying of revolvers to the convicts.

FELDER ANTI-PASS BILL
WINS OUT IN THE SENATE
Seoul, July 28.—Intrigue and plot
ting against the throne of Korea keeps
alive tha Intense excitement here end
the former emperor Is recognised at the
fountain head of the machinations
against the government. With him
are associated some of the highest of
ficials of the new administration.
In many ways the former emperor
shows that he does not regard himself
as having surrendered power. He re
gards his son in the light of a proxy,
and recognises In himself the only ruler
In Korea. There Is reason to believe
he Is planning to bring about an out
break on his own reserve.
The minister of war has reported to
Marquis It» that he has no control over
communication with the army. The
former emperor Is said to be responsi
ble for four anti-Japanese conspiracies
since his abdication. The first waa an
order to the Imperial guard to rush the
palace; the second Is found In the de
fiance of minister of war by the Korean
army; the third waa the attack on the
police at the Great Bell, and the fourth
Is the Indirect manipulation of the
functions of the present emperor.
It la reported that three cruisers,
apable of landing 1,000 blue Jackets,
are making their way to Chemulpo.
The Felder antl-pasa bill was passed
by the senate Tuesday afternoon at
1:16 o'clock aa a substitute to the more
drastic Born measure, which Is known
to about meet the vtewa of Governor
Smith.
Immediately upon a declaration of
the result. Senator Knight arose and
gave notice that he would move' a re
consideration at the proper time.
The-Bora bill made only exceptions
of railroad employees, servants and
thslr families. Ths Felder measure,
drafted much along the line of the
Hepburn act, excepted all railroad em
ployees and thslr families, railroad
agents, ministers, agents of eleemosy
nary or religious organisations, care-
takers of stock In transit, telephone
and telsgraph linemen, railway mail
men, postoffice Inspectors, Inmates of
soldiers' homes and witnesses for rail
roads In suits for damage, etc.
Two Amendments.
An amendment by Atesars. Steed‘and
Taylor, excepting persona Injured In
railroad wrecks and nurses and physi
cians engaged In such work, was
adopted. An amendment by Senator
Hays to make the bill effective Janu
ary 1, 1903, wai also adopted.
On the motion to adopt the subatl
tute to the Bora bill the vote was 21
to 18. and on Its passage 31 to 6, Sena
tors Bora, Camp, Felts. L. A. Hander
son nnd Knight sticking by their guns
to the lust.
With the disfranchisement bill put
aside until Thursday, the anti-pass bill
was called up for action. The Born
bill received the recommendation of
the committee, Is known to nbout meet
the views of Governor Smith, and was
thought to be the one that would pass.
Argument was opened by Senator
Henderson, of the Thirty-ninth, for the
Born measure. He said that there
should be no trimming or subterfuges,
but that If an anti-pass bill was to be
enacted Into law It should be one that
meant something.
Senators Camp, Knight, Bora nnd
Wilkes spoke along the same line. Sen
ator Wilkes wanted to moke a few
exceptions, and to have the law af
fective January 1, 1908.
Senator Felder closed the argument
by explaining hla substitute, and mode
a strong plqn for It. A substitute by
Senator Deen, very much like' that of
Senator Felder, was withdrawn by re
quest of the author.'
