The Atlanta Constitution gives the following summary of the proposed Harris “bone dry’’ bill: ®To prohibit the shipment or bring ing into the state by any person or any means auy liquor whatsoever, or any alcoholic compound, whether for beverages or not, which can produce intoxication. To prohibit any concern or indi vidual having in its or his possession, at home or elsewhere, any liquor or anything intoxicating whatsoever. To the foregoing provisions are ex ceptions enumerated below : A druggist pharmacist or manu facturer may import pure alcohol in any quantity upon obtaining a per mit from the county ordinary, the application for which must set forth upon oath the purpose for which the alcohol is to be used and must bear the endorsement of two reputable citizens. Another shipment may be secured only upon exhaustion of the former supply and the presentation to the ordinary of evidence such has been used for the purpose for which it was ordered. Upon permit from the ordinary, a church tnrough a minister, priest or board, may, obtain sufficient wine for the holy sacrament, hut may re ceive only one such supply per month In case of violation of the law. first offense is a misdemeanor and second offense is a felony. The bill provides that the commis sioner, of commerce and labor of the state shall serve as prohibition com missioner, for a salary of $1,200, and that this salary would be provided for adding ten percent to costs in all convictions under this act. If this additional ten per cent does not prpvide sufficient money, the com missioner of prohibition is the loser; if it provides more than $1,200 per year the balance goes into the state treasury. The former shipping law Is re pealed. The committee met immediately after the adjournment of the confer ence and made two amendment s to rhe bill. One of these amendments provides for the confiscation of any property or vehicle used for hauling of prohi bited liquors, upon which conflsca rion the said property or vehicle shall be sold and the proceeds go to the treasury of the oonnty In which tl e case Is brought. This amend ment is said to be directed against automobiles and “mountain schoon ers” doing a traffic in illicit liquors, and is designed to make more effec tive the provisions in the bill aimed at wiping out illicit distillery prac tices in Georgia. It is not canstrueu to apply to railroads or common carriers. The other provision is that any doctor licensed druggist or pharma cist, who violates the provisions of the bill, shall never again be eutitled to practice bis profession or engage in a similiar busiuess in Georgia. This provision is directed at the pro bability of the illegal dispensation o liquors by prescription or In aoj other manner through drug stores or pharmacies. Rev A. W.
