PRICE: [ 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. “ Effort to Pack Galler ies Is Now Re ported. 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. WIVES AND MOTHERS APPEAL FOR THE PROHIBITION LAW The women of Atlanta, the mothers and wives and daughters of At lanta men. have appealed to 'he general assembly to pass the Hardman prohibition bill, without amendment, without any postponement of Its ef fect. The appeal Is sent up from the great body of women assembled at Wesley Memorial church on Sunday afternoon, led by Sirs. Mary Harris Armor, president of the Georgia Women's Christian Temperance Union. The following resolutions were adopted at that meeting, and also at the meeting Sunday night at St. Johns church: "Resolved. That we. the wives, mothers, sisters and daughters of At lnnta beseech our lawmakers to pass the Hardman-Covlngton bill with out delay, to go Into effect January 1, 1908. "Especially do we urge our Fulton county representatives, for the protection of our homes and ■ for the honor of our county and of our city, to vote for this bill without the proposed amendment as to extension of time.” ■ .

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- *'It'"is known to be the desire of Pres ident Roosevelt that the case be brought to the supreme court- of the United States, and It Is In furtherance of this that Assistant Attorney Gen eral Sanford is now In-Asheville trying to pour oil on the troubled waters.

An authority that can not bo questioned today declared that Judge Pritchard Is Interfering In a matter In which his Jurisdiction Is questionable.

Indoors It was eUsIngly, suffocating ly hot,' but comfort seekers were not long In discovering the delights of porch, window and shady lawn. The 12-mlle-nrt-hour hreeae swept White hall and Peachtree anil blew a minia ture, gale around the. Candler building. In the shade of the Engllsh-Amerlcan Flatiron many stopped to get a wind bath. One portly gentlemen, arrayed In the most summery of midsummer gar ments, sighed when he got a dash of the xephyr. Spreading his coattails as though contemplating flight to a cooler 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 The elements, like bssebalt, politics and women, are uncertain. • Therefore, he merely says: _ '.'Generally fair and warm Tuesday and Wednesday."

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. JAP CRUISERS ARE ON WAY TO SEOUL MRS.

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.'
