The new prohibition law in Georg-
la, which not only prohibits the
sale of Intoxicating liquors but pro-
hibits the manufacture of it, is
probably the most drastic law of
the kind that has been enacted by
any state. Nearly all of the South
ern states are waking up to the
necessity of curtailing or prohibit
ing the traffic. In the North the
question is presented largely from
a moral standpoint, and very natu-
rally meets with opposition from a
large class of individuals who OBJ
ject to any public interference with
their private morals. In the South
the question is presented from an
economical standpoint. The effect
of the traffic on the large negro
population is to make them not
only lawless but lazy and shiftless.
In order to hold them in restraint
and make them self-supporting it

| Gov. Glenn of North Carolina,
seems to have won, temporarily at
least, in his fight to. compel the
Southern Railwaylto observe the
state law. The company claimed
that the rates established by the
state law we're confscatory, and
asked Judge Pritchard, of the
United States court to grant re-
straining order, prohibiting the
state officials from putting the
statute into effect until a hearing
before the master in chancery was
held to determine whether the law
constitutional. The order was is
sued bni the governor ignored il,
and proceeded to have all ticket
agents who charged more than the
statutory price, arrested and sem
fenced to the chain gang. Judge
Pritchard then declared the penal
ty clause of the state law uncon-
stitutional and revoked the senten-
ces. The railroad company then
poured oil on the troubled waters
by agreeing to abide by the state
law pending the decision of the
higher court on its constitutional
ity. Thus we have brief respite
from the horrors Of war over states
rights that the yellow journals were
plunging us into. The railroad,
company has probably taken the
wise course to avoid annoyance,'
but had they seen fit to continue
the battle they had many decisions
from the supreme court to sustain
them in their right to have the con-
stitutionality of the law determined
before it was put into force.

The first election in the Philipp-
ines for legislative assembly was
disappointing in the number OF
votes cast being but a small per
cent of the legally qualified voters.
The result however was a strong
endorsement of the home rule senti-
ment. This will not be seriously
regretted by the people of this
country, and if, in the legislative
body the members exhibit the abili-
ty and self control necessary to
maintain an independent govern
ment this country will not be at
all reluctant to shift the RESPONSE
bility onto their own shoulders,
as there is neither pleasure nor
profit in holding the islands as a
dependency.

RUSSIAN ELECTIONS.
Big Land Owners Form Majority of
 the New Parliament

St. Petersburg, October 2S.-Up to noon today 24 additional members of the lower house of the third Russian parliament had been elected. Of these IA were conserva- tives, six Octoberists, two constitutional democrats and two members of the Left party, bringing the total elected up to 2SO and increasing the big conservative lead in the coming parliament.
 On account of the large number of big land owners elected the new parliament already has been christened masters parliament Very few peasants have been chosen. Usually one is required by law in each province. The successful ean- didateS embrace a higher percentage or men having had a collegiate or high school education than in the case of the former parliaments, and the number of illiterates is the smallest of the three parliaments.
 The titled members elected include seven princes, seven counts and seven barons The elections everywhere are proceeding with perfect order. The only noteworthy incident was at Minsk, where the liberal electors withdrew after a reactionary ma jority had elected as their first candidate a man named Gustav Schmidt, who, it is charged, was connected several years ago with selling military secrets to a foreign power and was sentenced to imprisonment in Siberia and to deprivation of all civil rights and who later was pardoned. Gen eral Maizenseff of the police service was chosen as Sehn1idt's colleague. H. Lash- karoff, an Octoberist, was elected unani- mously, but refused to take his seat in such company.
 Most of the old reactionares from the second parliament, including M. Puriske- vich. Shulgin, Krupensky and Sassono- vich, who were suspended for disorderly conduct, and NJ. Sinado Kelpofsky and Demnovitch have been elected.

EMISSARY OF TERR0RISTs

St. Petersburg, October 9s.-G:15 p. m)- General Maximoffsky, director of the de- pertinent of prisons of the ministry of the interior, was shot and killed today.
 The general was the highest responsible official connected with the Russian prisons and 1t is supposed that this was the reason he was selected for assassina- tion by the terrorists.
 A young woman, who has not yet been identified, presented herself at the week. ly reception of General Maximoffsky and remained quietly in the crowded ante room until it was her turn to enter the generals private office.
 When she was in his presence the woman drew a revolver and fired seven shots point black at the general, six of them taking effect. The wounded man was hastily taken to hospital but his condition was hopeless.
 The generals assassin, who was ar rested immediately, unhesitatinsly avowed herself to be an emissary of the northern flying section of the social revolutiolls.s, who had been entrusted with the task LII regime which he lately had introduced in the treatment of important political pris- oners, whom he ordered to be treated like ordinary criminals.
 General Maximoffsky was sponsor for Governor Boroduln of Akatui prison, si- beria, the jailer of Madame Spiridonova, and who recently was assassinated al Pakoff.
 Colonel Ivanoff, governor of the polit- cal prison at Viborg, who was assassi- mated in September, was another of Maxl- moffskys instruments.
 The introduction of soldiers into the prison to preserve discipline was one of the most detested measures of Maxmoff- sky.
 The assassination of General Maxi moffsky apparently was designed to be only prelude to a greater act of terror ism-the destruction of the headquarters of the secret police-which has been the object of at least three terrorist plots of recent months.
 When the shaver of General Maximoff- sky, who tonight was identified as Mile. Ragozinnikova of Perm province, tho daughter of a teacher in the imperial conservatory of music, was taken to the police station her agitated attempt to free her bound hands and reach toward her breast led to an investigation, and it was found that she carried inside her corsage case containing 13 pounds OF high explosive, a charge powerful enough to blow the entire building and it's occupants to pieces.
