Governor.
Atlanta. Nov. 20.—The Senate to-day
After debate lasting three hours, passed
the Wright dispensary bill, which has
been denominated the compromise
measure on the prohibition question,
and it will go to the Governor when
the House acts on the Senate, amend
ments. The vote on agreeing to the re
port of the committee, which was fa
vorable to the passage of the bill, was
25 to 13, and on the passage of the bill
the vote was 26 to 14. The extra vote
Which the bill received on its passage
was given by Senator J. L. Boynton
of the Ninth who voted against the
favorable report, but for reasons of his
own which he did not state voted for
the passage of the bill- Of the South
Georgia senators the following voted
for the bill:
Cann of the First; Smiley of the Sec
end; Hopps of the Third: Johnson of
the Fifth; Norman of the Seventh;
Boynton of the Ninth: Ford of the
Tenth, and Daniel of the Seventeenth.
Among those who voted against the
measure were: Mr. Upchurch of the
Fourth, Mr. Alexander of the Sixth,
Mr. Bush of the Eighth, and Mr. Carter
of the Twenty-sixth.
Several important Senate amend
ments were adopted, among them be
ing one to require that one-third of
the qualified voters of a county must
sign a petition for an election before it
can be held. The present local option
law requires only one-tenth, and this
change affects the law as well as the
dispensary provision.
Another Senate amendment requires
that the division of the proceeds be.
tween county and town, or city, be
made monthly instead of dally. It was
provided by amendment that this
measure should not affect any dispen
sary already established by act of the
Legislature In any county, and that in
cities or towns of 5,000 inhabitants or
more the dispensary commissioners
may establish as many dispensaries as
the public convenience may demand.
What the BUI Provide*.
The bill as passed amends Section
1541 of the State Code so that it shall
read as follows:
“On petition signed by one-third of
the voters who are qualified to vote
for members of the General Assembly
In any county of this state, the ordi
nary shall order an election to be he’d
at the places for holding elections for
members of the General Assembly to
take place within forty days after the
reception of said petition, to determine
whether or not such spirituous liquors
as are mentioned in section 1548. shall
be sold within the limits of such des
ignated places. And upon a like pe
tition In any county, the ordinary
thereof shall order a like election to de
termine whether spirituous liquors as
are mentioned in section 1541. shall be
sold within the limits of said county,ex
cept in a dispensary to be established
as hereinafter provided; provided, that
no election held under this article shall
be held in the month in which general
elections are held, but all such elections
as are held under this article, shall be
separate and distinct from any other
election whatever. The ordinary shall
determine upon the sufficiency of the
petition presented by the list of regis
tered voters at the last general elec
tion: provided, that In the event there
are elections to determine whether the
sale of liquors shall be entirely pro
hibited under the provisions of this
act. or an election as hereinbefore pro
vided. to determine whether or not a
dispensary system shall be established
is held, it shall not be lawful to hold
any other election under any of the
provisions of this act within four years
thereafter."
This section gives the most impor
tant feature of the bill. The other sec
tions of the measure prescribe how the
law shall be carried out. for the ap
pointment of dispensary commission
ers. and a manager, that all liquors
sold shall be analyzed, and that they
must all be pure.
Wliy Mr. Caun Fnvored It.
The debate on the bill was an in-
CAUSE OF DEAFNESS,
The Most Common Cause Only Re
cenly Discovered.
It has been stated on good medical
authority that nine-tenths of cases of
deafness are caused from catarrh of
from sore throat trouble.
The little tube which leads to the
ear from the throat is lined with a
sort of velvet structure called mucous
membrane. This membrane is simply
a continuation of the mucous mem
brane lining the throat. When disease
of any sort attacks the mucous mem
brane of the throat it is vary liable to
extend into the Eustachian tube and
up Into the ear.
The history of nearly all cases of
deafness is like this: a cold ts contract
ed and neglected, other colds are
taken, the throat becomes sore and in
flamed. which is aggravated by parti
cles of dust and germs from the air.
This condition cause..* the disease to
spread into the tube that leads to the
ear.
It seem* a little far fetched to say
that most cases of deafness are caused
from catarrh. bat It Is certainly true,
and anyone who has had a severe
catarrhal cold must have noticed how
the hearing woe affected while the cold
lasted.
With catarrh sufferers this Impair
ment of hearing becomes chronic and
grow# worse the longer the catarrh Is
neglected,
You can cur* catarrh and deafnea*
by the tegular use of an excellent new
pi epata.uon called M'uart* Catarrh
Tablets, composed of antiseptic reme
dies which act both on the muneui
membrane but principally and moat ef
fectually on the blood, eliminating the
catarrhal polaon from lha system
People ahuo* hearing is dofeutlva

a simple ai.d htimleo* tab -I would
vary often remove all trace# of deaf

teresting one and occupied about three
hours. Senators Holder. Bell, Elies,
Cann, McAfee, Baker. Grantland, Wil
cox and Smiley spoke In favor of the
bill, and Senators Chappell. Boynton,
Cobb and Smith against it.
Some of those opposed It claimed
that It was a good liquor bill: those
who favored it claimed that it was
a fair and Just compromise.
Senator Cann said he favored the
measure as the representative of one
wet and two dry counties. He declared
that' the measure was intended to
bring about harmony between the pro.
hibitionists and the antis, and said It
would do so. It is local option car
ried to Its last analysis. He declared
that the provision requiring a petition
from one-third of the voters before
an election can be held was favorable
to the prohibitionists because it will
make it harder to call another elec
tion In a dry county. He believed
the bill was a good and proper solu
tion of a vexed question.
The ayes and nays were called at
the conclusion of the debate, with the
result stated.
TO INVESTIGATE THE HOME.
Cost $l6O Per Vear to Keep Veteran*
in Atlanta. ,
Atlanta, Nov. 20.—The most import
ant matter brought to the attention of
the House to-day was the resolution
by Mr. Hogan of Lincoln, providing
that a committee, composed of thrfee
members from the House and two from
the Senate, be appointed to investigate
the Soldiers' Home and report to the
General Assembly during the present
session. The resolution was adopted
and Immediately transmitted to the
Senate.
Explaining the object of the resolu
tion. Mr. Hogan said:
"The Legislature appoints commit
tees to inspect and report conditions
obtaining in all the state institutions
and I think it only proper that the sol
diers home should be visited by such
committee. I understand that it takes
about $l6O a year to keep each veteran
at the home, while before the home was
opened the state paid only S6O to vet
erans as pensions."
Mr. Knight of Berrien wants the of
fice of special attorney for the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad abolished.
He introduced a resolution in the
House to-day providing that this be
done and it was referred to the Gen
eral Judiciary Committee.
The author of the resolution says
there is no longer any need of a spec
ial attorney to look after the state's in
terests.
To Pension Old Negro.
The state may pension an old negro
who entered the war as the bodyguard
of a Confederate officer. Col. W. W.
White of the Seventh Georgia Regi
ment, and served as a soldier in all
the battles from Manassas to Appo
mattox. A joint resolution was in
troduced in the Hiouse yesterday by
Mr. Anderson of Cobb providing that
Si McGinnis, colored, of Cobb county
be paid a pension of 160 a year during
the remainder of his life. The paper
was referred to the Committee on
Pensions.
The bill of Mr. Deal of Bullock to
make it a misdemeanor for any one to
buy or sell votes during elections was
recommitted to the Privileges and
Elections committees. The bill by Mr.
Brock of Dade to fix the pay of con
vict guards at not less than SBO nor
more than S4O a month was recommit
ted to the Appropriations Committee.
The following new bills were Intro

Atlanta, Nov. 20.—The special Judi
ciary Committee of the Senate this
afternoon heard argument for and
against the Atlanta charter amend
ments, which have passed the House.
All the street railroad magnates and
their lawyers were there to oppose the
amendments providing for taxation on
franchises of corporations, and several
members of Council, who formerly vot
ed for these amendments, appeared and
spoke against them. An interesting fea
ture of the debate was that a member
of Council, Merkonitz. stated that the
idea of the amendment for the occu
pation tax came from the city charter
of Savannah, which under a Supreme
Court decision permits that city to
charge a 'tax of so much per mile on
street railroads.
The debate was a warm one. the
claim being made that the bill would
establish a dangerous precedent and
would keep capital out of the state.
The committee postponed action on the
matter.
The general Judiciary Committee of
the House this afternoon determined
upon a favorable report on the bill by
Mr. Slaton of Fulton, which provides
that the Superior Court Judges of
Georgia shall be paid an annual sal
ary of $2,500. They now receive $2.00b.
The bill by Mr. Wright of Floyd,
which seeks to increase the taxation
of insurance companies in Georgia
from 1 per cent, to 2Vi per cent, on
gross premiums, was sent to a sub
committee for consideration and report.
Several insurance agents appeared be
fore the committee to urge that the
bill not be passed.
The committee also made a favorable
report on the bill by Mr. Hitch of
Chatham, which is in effect a provision
that railroads which may establish the
derailing and interlocking system shall
not be required to make full stops be
fore crossing the track of other rail
roads. The measure also requires the
roads to maintain signal houses at
these crossings, to be in charge of
regular operatives.
The Agricultural Committee of the
House this afternoon made a favorable
report on the bill by Mr. Jordan of
Jasper, which seeks to raise the stand
ard of fertilizers sold In this state.
The House Committee on Labor and
Labor Statistics agreed upon an ad
verse report on the bill providing for
the establishment of a state board of
barbers, and made a favorable report
on the bill requiring that all convict
made goods sold in Georgia should be
stamped showing forth the fact.
SPEER GROWS ELOQUENT.
Devella Upon “Established Justice”
as Dealt to McKinley's Murderer.
Macon, Ga.. Nov. 20.—Judge Emory
Speer of the United States court for the
Southern district of Georgia, in the
course of his charge to the grand jury
to-day said:
'Two months have scarcely elapsed
since our President, the gentle, noble,
purposeful statesman and patriot was
slain while he grasped in cordial kind
ness the hand of the assassin. Not
more cruel was the hand of the savage
when he dashed the tomahawk in the
brain of the infant as it smiled In his
face. Never In the annals of time was
there a crime to drive more to frenzy
an infuriated people. And yet, what
was the Inspiring, the ennobling spec
tacle of 'established justice?' The
President with his last mortal breath
whispering words in harmony with the
melody of angel voices, which bade him
welcome to his reward, sank to rest
with all his country's wishos blest. The
conduct of his countrymen who sur
vived was worthy of the noble dead.
Sternly, majestically, swiftly, but
without passion, ‘established justice'
moved on its ordered way. The majesty
of the law was avenged, and our coun
try without a tremor in the machinery
of government, without a foreboding
in an American heart, moved on its
matchless way.
"Such, gentlemen, Is the awful au
thority of a mighty people who re
strain passions, however furious of the
moment, and are governed by that law
which 'has for its throne the bosom of
God and for Its /ole? the harmonies of
the world.' ”

THE CAROLINA DRUGGISTS.
Can a Corporation Conduct n Drug
Store Now tlie Question,
Columbia, S. C„ Nov. 20.—One of the
important questions before the State
Pharmaceutical Convention that met
here to-day is whether a corporation
can own a drug store and conduct a
retail business. The question is an
interesting one and if answered in the
negative will affect a considerable
number of drug stores.
This association has been very active
of late in enforcing the law as to the
compounding of drugs, and a number
of drug store proprietors have been in
dicted for employing incompetent men
in that very important position.
Physicians are protesting against
druggists prescribing for customers,
while the druggists, on the other
hand, strongly oppose prescriptions be
ing compounded by physicians.
