The Senate Passes
Prohibition Bills
Atlanta, Nov. 11.—With the pas-!
sage by the Senate of ali the prohi-!
bition program, the fight is now Eo-r'x-l
fined entirely to the House. 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. This they

propose to do, and they make nol
bones about admitting it. 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 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.

only island memories heaving
themselves in sight occasionally,
but beyond all sins will be stretch

Mr. Orahood said it would be a
woeful time when God unrolled
the scroll and to sinners said:
“Here is your life; take it, read
it over and see what you have
done with it*”
Quoting from Milton, ‘“Which
way [ fly is hell, Myself is hell,”
the pastor said the childish sin oft
becomes the parent of the larger
vice and memory after death would
overwhelm the trangressor with
the awful sordiness of it all.
As a conclusional climax, Mr.
Orahood made an Impassioned
