Special to The Georgian. Macon, Ga., Oct. 18.—That Macon Is on the verge of a prohibition election Is the belief of those conversant with the political altuatlon. There has been no little activity shown lately by those known to be Identified with the prohi bition movement, and considerable crit icism has been expressed by these people of the saloon bualness. This has partly been brought on by the steps taken In Atlanta to regulate the liquor tntfllc, because.of the race dis turbances there, and the fact that the council had all the saloons closed. In Macon during the time an attempt was made to lynch the negro Pews. Son.- of the leaders, however, are In clined to be conservative, .mu it Is believed that If concessions are made and the laws governing the conduct of saloons be made mode stringent, these leaders will agree to let the saloons exist.

I felt emotions such aa I had never experienced at a play. , “I saw a devoted wife, struggling to save the life and honor of the man she loved. I saw her happy and contented; saw her heart wrenched when her hus band wa* torn from her aide; saw her In the midst of fearful prison scenes; saw her with suppressed tigerish emo tions, by words alone, wring a searet from another woman; and I actually wept tears of Joy to see her throw her arms above her head and awoon when the awful secret was hers and her hus band was safe.
