TVl:ets on Sale A~vil 19 to Nov. 30, ’07 PULLMAN CAR* OINt.tG CARS The Georgia legislature passed the most important legislative measure in the history of the state Tuesday evening, and the tem perance people of Georgia are now rejoicing witli an exceeding great joy. The lillibuster of the “antis” last week did not help their cause a particle, though fair minded people generally recognize the fact that they represent their constituents as mucli as the “dry” mem bers do theirs, and therefore .were entitled to a bearing. After some exciting scenes in connection witli the fillibuster, unanimous agreement was entered into by which the bill and its amendments should come to a vote Tuesday. The "antis” did their best to get some concessions, but the “proliis” stood pat, and no amendments were accepted except those offered by the temperance committee to strengthen the bill. The measure was introduced in the Senate by Senator Hard man, where it was adopted by a large majority. A like measure Imd been introduced in the House by Hon. W. A. Covington, of Moultrie, one of Georgia’s greatest prohibition leaders, hut the temperance advocates gladly accepted the Hardman bill on its passage by the Senate, in lieu of the Covington bill. The bill passed Hie House at 7.10 p. m. Tuesday, and on mo- tion was transmitted to the Senate yesterday. The House amend ments will doubtless lie concurred in when the hill comes up in due course, and Governor Smith will thon promptly carry out the promise of his inaugural address that, although favoring local option, lie will sign a prohibition bill if passed by tire Legislature. Hon. Felton Mundj, Folk’s sterling young Representative, whb honored by selection ns one of the speakers on the prohibition side of the debate Tuesday. In common with all advocates of temperance, Tho Standard rejoices at the passage of this bill by the House and the prospect of its enactment into law on Jan. 1st. While we would have had no fear as to the outcome in event the matter had been loft to a vote of the people, we bolievo the legislative method is the best in that it saves the state a heated and vituperative campaign. The actual vote of 130 to tit) in the House is a conservative esti mate of the way in which the people of Georgia would stand on this question, nnd wo are glad to see the will of tho people carried out without the “fuss and feathers” of a political contest.
