NO ELECTION IN RussELL.
Under Law 1t Must Follow Georgia.

Under Law 1t Must Follow Georgia.
 Girard, Oct, 24--tSpecial)- )--The tenn perance leaders in Russell county have decided that a local option election In this county is urhhecessary. and so no effort will be made to have an election on this question.
 Several years ago the Alabama legis- iature passed a law providing that 1t shall be illegal to sell intoxicating liauors in Russell county, the same to become effective as soon as similar state of affairs exists in Columbus, Ga, on the opposite side of the Chat tahoochee river. On January list, Columbus and all the rest of Georgia will "go dry
 It has been a matter of considerable speculation as to whether such legts- lation, being conditioned upon cimcun- stances in another state. was constitu- tionai, and in view of this fact Russell county prohibitionists considered the advisability of asking for an election.
 Judge H. T. Benton, county judge of probate, regards the law as valid, and says that he could not grant an cleo ton even should the desired petition be presented.
 E The temperance leaders in the coun- ty have laid the case before the coun- sel for the Anti-Saloon League Of the state. and their advice is that an cleo present law valid, and that when Columbus Ga. goes dry" on January 1st, Girard will follow suit.
 Under the circumstances the prohibi- tionists have abandoned the idea of having an election. 0irard is the only place in the county where whiskey is sold.
