The" Senate has done its full part towardl giving Georgia effective prohibition laws, having passed the ommnibus bill, the anti-shipping bill, the anti advertising bill, the bill repealing the tax on near-beer and locker clubs, and the bill making a public. nuisance of any place where the pro- | hibition law is violated. The pro hibitionists in the House have now left the house bills go and are put ting the pressure behind the Senate bills, on account of the fact that both sets of bills are identical and the passage by the House of the Senate bills will save considerable time,; The fight in the house has resolv ed itself down to a parliamentary struggle. Efforts yesterday toreach a compromise disclosed the fact that the anti-prohibitionists not only want the effective date of the omnibus bill to be deferred, but want the bill amended in a way to permit the continued manufacture of malt bev erages by the breweries of the state. “This being exactly what the prohi- ; bition forces want to stop. The counter proposal made by the anti prohibitionists was very promptly rejected. Then both sides announc ed that it would be a fight to the finish. How long it will take the prohibi tion forces to put their bills through the House no man say. The oppo sition do not claim to have enough votes to prevent the passage of the bills. They claim just what they have got and no more, to-wit: suffi cient votes to delay the passage of the bills by a fillibuster.

Their determination to block the bills as‘ long as possible is equally as ont spoken as the determination of the prohibition forces to pass the bill without change or amendment. If the bills are amended at all, it will be to make them effective on and after the date of passage. Sentiment for such an amend ment is growing, in proportion to the growing resentment among the prohibitionists against what they term the dilatory tactics of the opposition. ~ The omnibus bill and the bill re pealing the locker club and near beer tax, as passed by the senate,l have now been through their sec ond readicgs in the house. The anti-advertising bill and the anti shipping bills have been read once reférred to the temperance com mittee, and yesterday afternoon the committee met and§voted to recommend the passage of these two bills without amendment, To take a miuority with just sufficient votes to sustain a filibus ter and with them block the pass age of bills, is a program that can be dragged along for weeks and perhaps months. But in the end the passage of the bills is absolute ly certain, unless the supporters of the bills go to pieces—assuming of course, that the bills are sup ported by a majority. | Such is the situation in the house. The opposition can block the progress of the prohibition steara roller a few inches every time it moves, but they cannot' stop it and they cannot prevent the arrival of the steam roller at its destination in the end. 'Per liamentary proceedure is slow, when a filibuster gets in action, but it is nevertheless sure. THE LEADER-ENTERPRISE FRINDAY NOV. 12, 1915 . % 7/ 7~ ' / o - "’ v ' Ll ToY 3 m. The prohibition forces occupy this unbeatable position: They have ninety-seven votes that are absolutely certain, that can be depended on to vote every time and to stick together. Thisisa quorum of the house, it is a majority of the house. There fore these 97 could hold sessions of the house and pass the prohi bition bills if every other member were to quit and go home. The obpposition know they haven’t a chanee in the world to defeat the bills, They are delay ing them simply and solely on the gambling chance that the prohibition forces may weaken and compromise, or go to pieces. The prohibitionists declare the 3fi%ster is a great deal more likely to crack under the strain than they are, and they are letting the filibuster go merely on, knowing that eventually the opposition will reach the end of the filibuster rope. )Thursflay Night At The 1 Christian Church Taking as his subject “Memory After Death,” premised on the text from 16th Luke, ‘‘And Abra ham Said, Son Remember.”’ Rev. Orahood last night delivered one of the most forceful and appealing sermons of the series, four persons responding to the invitation of Christ as extended through the church. ; The effort was builded around the story of Lazrous and the rich man. when the latter undergoing the travails of hell, looked up in to heaven, saw the once despisedfl Lazrous nestling in the bosom of Abraham and asked that he place a drop of water upon the tortured man’s tongue. With this as the pivot, the speaker asked how will memory work after the Soul of man has moved out of this body. He ex prrssed the belief that memory would cover a much wider scope than in tms life, that there would be growth after death but no change in %his direction, whether headed toward heaven or hell. ‘ Giving as his belief the thought that good grows better and the bad worse. Mr. Orah>od affirmed that every act taan has done is im printed on his memory, unrecalla ble perhaps but nevertheless per manently abiding wunder what psychologists term the strata of sonsciousness. ~ “In this life” he said, ‘‘we have 0w SEEELBIR L i T ¢¢ o » ; £"0 “The Thinkers of the SUNBBEAE T Country Are the W&;} Tobacco Chewers”— 73 B ‘r)x“'f(‘( SB, o' .
