element as a victory, and they take
it as an indication that a majority of
the upper house faVors and will vote
for prohibition.
A count of the noses among repre-
sentatiyes, so the prohis claim, shows
a substantial majority in the lower
branch in favor Of prohibition.
The COvingtOn-Hardman prohibi.
ton bill was introduced simultan-
eously in either branch of the as
sembly Wednesday morning, as was
also the CovingtOn anti-jug bill.
Mr.. CovingtOn says the prohibition
bill is sure of passage in the house,
and Senator Hardman is confident it
will pass the senate by a large major
iU.
The bill makes it unlawful to sell,
barter or give away any alcoholic or
spirituous liquors, bitters. ETC.. or
other drink, which II drunk to ex-
cess will produce intOxieation. II
provides that the law shall become
effective on January /, 1908, and
fixes the usual misdemeanor penalty
for violation.
Mr.. CoTington's anti-jug bin aims
to prevent the shipment into dry
counties of liquor, and, in the event
Of state prohibition, to restrict the
shipment of liquor from other states
into Georgia.
1t provides that every jug, barrel
or bottle containing liquor shall,
when it has been delivered to the
consignee in a dry county, be regis
tered and stamped by the clerk of
the superior court, for which a fee
shall be exacted.
Failure to register liquor with the
clerk will be punishable by fine or
Imprisonment.

At the meeting of the Georgia
