From The Capital,

Atlanta, Ga, July-Since We'd
nesday morning at 8 o'clock, the
prohibition leaders of the house
have taxed their minds and bodies
in vain-and seemingly hopeless
to put the Hardman- Gov
ington state prohibition bill on its
third reading and passage. 1t IS
no reflection upon their ability to
say they have failed, nor is it an
indication of waning sincerity. 1t
is, rather, a compliment to the
skill and parliamentary knowledge
of the small minority.
One week ago it seemed practl
Cally certain that the prohibition
bill would pass before the week
end, and statements to this effect
were sent broad cast over the state
based upon the views Of well in
formed legislators. These same
men will tell you today they be-
lieve prohibition bill will pass,
but it is evident their confidence
has been jolted.
at looked week ago like the
bill would have easy sail
ing, and | firmly believed it would
pass the house in rush, said one
of the strongest prohibitionists in
the legislature today. III now
have some doubts as to the success
of the bill, The filibuster seems
very formidable"
Representative Seaborn Wright
of Floyd, chairman of the temper
ance committee, and floor leader
for the pro-his, said to me We'd
nesday, after four hours of fillibus-
y -
tering:-
eve have not given up the
fight. We are in it to stay, and
we expect to pass the bill, but |
cannot tell you how we will check
the flbuster, for we haven't decid-
ed. Our plans may be changed at
any minute to meet some new en-
Urgency or condition that may
arise"
1t does seem that 145 legislators
could pass a bill over the opposi-
ton of a measley 81 or 50, doesn't
it? But they haven't and that is
the answer to all the arguments
about majority rule, etc.
The constitution of the state
provides that one-ffth of the
membership of either house may
call the roll on any pending ques-
ton, for the sake and benefit of a
record vote. Thirty-seven mem
bers constitute One-fifth of the
house, and all day Wednesday
they exercised this constitutional
right. The result is we'll KNOWN
the prohibition bill was never
reached.
The fight against the bill, or for
the bill, as you like best, will go
down in history as the most mem
orable since the war, not that it
has been especially exciting, for it
hasn't, but for the relentless deter
mination and persistence shown by
either side, to say nothing of the
unusual interest<in the bill.
The galleries of the house were
packed from $3.50 a. m. until adj
journment was taken many hours
later. Thousands of people of all
classes thronged the Hobbies and
rotundas of the capitol. Good
women-hundredso of them-sWung
back and fourth thro the halls
singing hymns and the praises of
