M. Rose conversing bn the subject of a prohibi tion election. He has his exact words. They’re great.” •Several cries of ‘‘tell us what he said” arose In the hall. “Oh, no,” said Dr. Broughton, as he took his seat, "I han’t remember his exact words and I wouldn't butcher them. They’re too classic and too good.” Dr. Millard asked Dr. Broughton If he thought there was a fighting chance to win. A Fighting Chance. “Certainly there is a fighting chance,” was th, reply. "There Is a splendid chance for victory." “Then we are with you,” exclaimed Dr. Mlllnrd and others. Dr. W. W. Landrum, pastor of the First Baptist church, said until he be came convinced that there was a pros pect for winning, he would not bind himself, regardless of what action the ministers’ conference, the Anti-Saloon League, or any other body takes. ’’I Just reserve my right ns a plain American citizen,” he said, “to do os I think right and judicious. The com mittee of ten did what It was asked to do. Business men, who hove been known to be for a prohibition election In previous years, and some are known to be for prohibition now, were ap proached. and they expressed them selves ns not in favor of a prohibition election now. "Men who in previous years fur nlshed the sinews of war, say that If an election Is held now they will not support us. Dr. White Is now getting the expression of business men on this subject. He Is doing this voluntarily on his own hook. “I want to see the result of this be- fore I commit myself. If 1 am con. vlnced there is a prospect for success I am for It heart-nnd soul. If. on the other hand, I am convinced In my own mind that there Is no prospect, I re serve the right ns n plain Abierlcan cit izen to do ns I please." "Get Wise,” 8ays Bennett. “Get arise," was the keynote of the speech of Rev. J. J. Bennett. “The Good Book says, you know, be wise ns a serpent and harmless ns a dove. We want to be wise. ,We don't wunt to rush Into this thing. We want to wait until the Iron Is hot and then strike. And when we do strike, we must strike with all the force God gives us. “I have been In the thick of sev eral prohibition elections. I know what I am talking ubout.

"Then, said the president In his card, the League could sweep the state for prohibition. These were wise words.

The resolution Ls as follows: The Reiolution. ■•Resolved,' That It It the sense of the Atlanta Baptist Ministers' Conference that Atlanta should hold a prohibition election as soon as arrangement* can be made and pledges the Anti-Saloon League Its best efforts- In helping to bring It about."
