Continued From Page One. an old-fashioned, initiative and refer endum "pop" and lie thought this bill, if passed at all. surely should carry the referendum clause, but that he was po posed to it. anyway Mr. Wilson said he thought more people were being ruined by certain classes of soft drinks than by any othei beverages. Mr York, of Clark, followed Mr Wil son in a vehement and earnest speech in favor of the bill. Ho said that Geor gia has no real prohibition under the present law, and that the Tippins bill would give the state a large measure of ft, ' it is time to separate the sheep from the goats in this matter." said Mr. York. 'lt is time for decent people to come out in the open and take sides boldly and with sword In hand for the defense of opinions Let the governor veto, if he will, and if he dares. We prohibitionists must do our duty." Opposes Bill on "Common Sense" Grounds. Mr. White, of Screven, said he hard ly knew how his constituents stand on this matter, but that as for himself he proposed to view it in the light of such common sense as he was possessed of, and that he. therefore, opposed the bill as something impractical and incapa ble of rational enforcement. "We had. under our old local option law, only nineteen 'wet' counties in Georgia as against 119 'dry' counties. We had more prohibition then than we ever have had since." declared Mr. this feature removed as with It White. "All fanatical and ill-advised efforts to better conditions have merely made things worse. Under so-called state-wide prohibition drunkenness has Increased. Why not be temperate in legislation as well as in the use of liquors?" , Mr. Ault, of Polk, followed Mr. White. He addressed himself to his amendment removing the proposed pro hibitive restrictions from physicians' prescriptions and genuine medicine not manufactured for the purpose of evad ing the prohibition law. He thought the bill would be -as strong with this feature removed as with it included. Anderson in Closing Speech Opposing Measure. At 11:30 o'clock Mr. Anderson of <'hatham. took the floot to make the concluding argument agpinst the bill. Mr. Anderson began by saying that hr was originally In hearty sympathy with the Georgia Anti-Saloon league, and only parted company with it when it plunged into politics and endeavored to legislate impossible things into hu man beings. “If the Anti-Saloon league had been content to proceed along lines of com mon seme," said Mr, Anderson. "I would be with them, for I believe in temperance, and practice it. I would be with them now. If I could believe them right. "They are appealing to out preju dices and passions, even to your Imag inary cowardice now They are ask ing that you do nn unrighteous thing, upon a plea that it might hurt you back home. "The gentleman from DeKalb deliv ered yesterday one of the most dema gogic and unfair arguments I ever heard delivered on this floor, and 1 have heard him deliver quite a few of j that kind "His address carried two vicious and outrageous attacks one upon the gov ernor of the state, the other upon the courts. He was either ignorant or woefully willing to misquote the law 1 esteem him too highly to think him a falsifier, so I am forced to the con elusion that he is ignorant Calls Attack on (governor Unfair. "It was an unfair attack on the gov ernor to say that he is not doing all that he can to enforce all laws The constitution does not Impose up<m the governor the duty to pick out specific and particular laws for his favorite and partial attention." A sharp interchange of words be tween Mr. Alexandet and Mr. Vnderson took place over the question of the gov ernor's duty to enforce any and all laws Mr Alexander attempted to force Mr Anderson to say that it was not the duty of the governor to enforce all law s, whereupon Mr. Anderson read the con stitutional I'mitations pui upon the governor an i invited Mr. A'., xandet to sit down and hold his peace until the time of his concluding argument in fa vor of the bill Mr. Alexandet sat down hastily upon Mr. Anderson's Invitation, and the house applauded. "The gentleman from DeKalb not only attacked the governor im vicious ly and unfairly attacked Hie courts He says we are living in Georgia under a state of anarchy. J say that is not so. and lu knows it is not so. But if we are living in such a state partially, it is the fault of such demagogues as the gentleman from DeKalb" contin ued Mr. Anderson "Crazy Laws Will Not Enforce Temperance. ' “You can not prottiote temperance enacting craz.\ Ihws that the people, in an intelligent majority, do not want and will not back up. The 'local op tion idea, properly safeguaided and » x ploiled. is the only system uudr-r uhb'h Anti-Liquor Men Fail in Senate i While the lower house engaged in a' death struggle today over the Tippins lull, the state senate look a little flyer of its <>wn at prohibition legislation when | Senator Felker's state revenue liquor tax bills, reported favorably by the temper ance committee, came up for passage 'After a furious debate before which the oratory of the lower house must have i paled, the bills were recommitted. The big cities of the state came In for | j severe criticism from the senate prohl-I I bftionists for the lack of regard for ex- I isting prohibition legislation Senator ! Bush, accredited as being the senate's prohibition leader, and senator Felker, author of the revenue measure, flayed the] cities mercilessly. Senator Bush, who j wanted the bill which Is a revenue meas- I ure deriving from a stamp tax on beet , wines and liquors Io go to the state rath er than the county treasury ft was in itis argument urging recommitment to ef fect this change that the big cities were, accused of being the liquor drinking com munities of Georgia. "It is the large cities of the state that won't let us have real prohibition in Georgia. and I don’t propose to let them profit alone from the revenues coming from these measures. These bills will bring the state $4,00Q.000 annually. It will pay all the expenses of the state." Savannah and Liquor. Senator Dickerson, under the impres sion that he who pays the freight should profit, said: "Don't you think the cities that con sume the liquor should have the advan tage of this tax?” The fight then turned on an amendment reducing the tax per gallon on liquor Somebody asked Senator Felker, author of the bill. If he didn't believe that a low tax would encourage the drinking of liq uor especially in cities. "If you mean Savannah." yelled the senator from the Twenty-seventh dis trict, "I don't think any law could make Savannah consume more liquor than Is i being consumed there now." The hill was finally recommitted after Senator Roberts bad called attention to the fact that the constitution of the state stipulated that a revenue measure should originate in the house, although Senator Felker Insisted that his bill was not a revenue, but a prohibition measure. To Confirm Brown Men. The senate went Into executive session to consider appointments sent in by Gov ernor Brown, but took no action. The nominations, four In number, will be con firmed without opposition tomorrow They are: Judge Henry S. West, Judge of the city court of Athens. S. ('. I'pson. solicitor city court of Athens. Judge James M. Dupree, of Montezuma, trustee of the Georgia Normal and Indus trial school at Milledgeville. Dr E. A. Tichenor. of Milledgeville, trustee of the Georgia Normal and In dustrial school. Judge West is at present Judge of the city court of Athens, and has successfully held Ute position by a supreme court de cision over 'l'. S. Shackleford. Hoke Smith’s nominee for the Job. S. C. I'pson was one of the Hoke Smith ad interim appointments. Both Dupree and Tich enor were reappointed as trustees of the Georgia Normal. t teal measure of prohibition has been achieved tn Georgia. "The present prohibition law is as ! strong as language can make it. Why ; burden it down with this proposed amendment, which can only say what the law already says, and which is spe cific enough for any reasonable man? If we amend it at ali. why not amend it to give rational relief where that is needed?" Mr. Anderson got a good laugh from the house In this part of his speech, when, discussing "locker clubs," he de clared "My town. I am glad to say, has no locker clubs. We have not. I am glad to say. learned the meaning of ‘locker club' in Savannah!" Continuing, the Chatham statesman sh id: “Prohibition Law Not. Holier Than Others." "The advocates of this prohibition law seem to think it is something holier and more worthy of attention than oth er laws. I deny that It is any more binding than other laws, and that it is j holier. There is no power under the I | law to force juries to make verdicts to ! suit fanatics. Nothing but public opin- i ion. common sense, decency and Justice I can influence the juries of Georgia, j Cranks needn't get mad with the gov- ■ ernor because Juries will not return verdicts to sup their cranky notions. Tlte juties of Georgia are made up of the plain, common, honest, upright peo ple of Georgia, and their verdicts are characterized by wisdom. Justice and moderation. I respect them more than I respect the babbling and the tnouth ings of cheap politicians and dema gogues. "Let's put ,common sense to work in • litis legislature." concluded Mr. Ander son. "end effective some constructive I legislation " The final argument in favor of the bill was commenced by Mr. Fullbright, i of Burke, at 12:30 o'clock. Fullbright Begins Close For Bill. In short, crisp sentences, the gen tleman from Burke summed up the ar guments in favor of the bill. ? He said nt the outside that he de- 1 plored the attacks that had been made on tlie governor ind the courts I have no sympathy." said Mr. Full brichi. with attacks on the governor. i I think he is an honest man, and will do his duty in ibis matter.

A motion to substitute the name of Miss Strachan for that of Fairchild was offered. It was voted down after Miss Strachan herself took the platform in her own behalf "In New York we do business in the open," she cried, "not behind a screen or in secret caucuses. I have not been given fair play, I am here to get it. "I wish I bad never come to Chi cago. I would have a better opinion of this city and some of its people if I had remained away. The Chicago people and the Illinois delegation at tempted to run this association. The organization ought to be called the Chi cago Educational Association instead of the name it bears."

Bos- MILEAGE SCRIPT GALLED I FARCE Methods of Railroads Attacked at Final Hearing Before the. Railway Commission, "I kept a leeord for seven weeks n traveling about Georgia and found th o an average of four minutes, even afte reaching the ticket window, was los; m swapping mileage for tickets." saki ■ J. Hollingsworth today, in testifying before the railroad commission. "The penny script issued by them.-, roads Is a farce, a joke." said R 1 Broyles. "We pay S2O for a book ' 2,500 'pennies.' but the railroads won accept them at face value non-competitive points. They pui: om twenty per cent more than the amour' would be in cash." These were two of the striking charges made in the hearing todaj ’ the petition presented by three organL zations of traveling men, asking that the roads be required to permit mile age to be taken up on trains instead of forcing passengers to exchange mile age for tickets at the windows. Th. hearing was adjourned at 1 o'clock ani resumed at 3. The case will be taken under advisement by the commission and a ruling made later. The small audience room at the cap itol was so jammed with lawyers, of ficials of the various railroads and representatives of the United Commer cial Travelers. Travelers Protective as sociation and Georgia Travelers asso ciation that late-comers were forced to stand in the hall outside. A dozen of the most prominent railroad counsel in the state were there to defend their roads, and officers of the traveling salesmen, plain members and onlookers came in numbers. Mayaon Fight* Battle Alone. James L. Mayson, attorney for the travelers, Was pitted alone against the combined forces of the transportatlor systems operating in Georgia, al] ol which are defendants to the petition. The travelers protested that the tea object of the interchangeable mileag* is defeated, as they must go to th ■stations 30 minutes before train time 'in order to exchange their mileage At the country stations, where the agent must look after freight, express, bag gage, telegraphy and train signals, a-- well as sell tickets, the travelers are often forced to board the trains with out having been waited on by the harassed agent, and then the conduc tors refuse to accept mileage and re quire a cash fare, at an advanced rate The commissioners showed especial interest in Mr. Hollingsworth's state ments that he bad kept a detailed rec ord of loss of time in the country sta tions, and he agreed to put his notes in the form of an affidavit and submit it as an exhibit in the case. • He said, in answer to a question from Cum missioner Gray, that separate ticket windows for handling mileage wou:d 'save from 50 to 75 per cent of the de lay. The alternative of providing sep arate ticket windows, should it be forced on the railroads, would ental’ great expense on them, as it virtual)} would mean an idle employee at ever.' station.
