GERARD WANTS PROHIBITION.
Mnss Meeting sf Citixens Passes Reso . IuffOns.

aE
 Girard. Dec. 21.-(Special)--At mass meeting of Girard citizens last night, speeches were made by promi- nent ministers of Columbus. Phenix City and Birard. and 1t was resolved to have the prohibition law in this city become operative on January 1st, and to see that it Is enforced.
 Under the rather peculiar law. Girard goes dry" when the Mayor of coium- bus. Ga. certines that the sale of liauor is prohibited in that city. and when the Mayor of Girard publishes the certificate. The mass meeting ap- pointed a committee to see Mayor Rhodes Browne of Columbus, to secure the desired certificate as to the prohi- bition status of that city on and after January fst.f and another committee to see Mayor Foster of this city. The two Mayors have signified their en- tire willingness to take the proper steps in the matter.
 Notwithstanding the various state- ments that are being made that whis- key cannot and will not be sold in Girard next year. an Atlanta man has rented two stores in this city for next year. located just few hundred yards from Columbus, agreeing to pay about four times the rent now being received for the stores; the lease to be condi- tioned. however. on the fact that liquor can be sold in this city. At any rate. he has backed his judgment by paying cash for the option of securing the two stores.
 Prohib itionists in the three cities are considerably aroused over the situa- tion. The more conservative view is that any effort to have saloons in Girard next year will result unsuc- cessfully, although the persistent ru- mors on the subject have caused con- siderable confusion in the public mind.
