Story Of Statutory Prohibition Bill
From Judiciary Committee Fake.
CHARLESTON, Feb. S.-The state

that the House judiciary committee

did nothing Of the kind. The only stat

The talk Of the vote on the Hazlett

Is absurd. Four and possibly more

while some senators who voted for the
Hazlett bill will vote against prohlbi
