GROWTH or PROHIBITION
IN THE SOUTHERN STATES
More Than Half Of soush's Territory

effect over the south that the new

More than half the south's terri.

remaining area the sale of intoxi,

the cities are the only remaining
strongholds for the saloons and 1t Is
unlikely that this condition will be
modified except through a radical
change in political thought, through
failure to enforce the laws against
the traffic, and perhaps othel' OBJ
stacles which follow in the wake OF
prohibition.

Tennessee is the chief center o
interest among the other states
where statewide prohibition fights
are In progress. The prohibitionisti
assert that a statewide bill will pas

organize and control.
Kentucky. the second largest dis

SHOCKING BRUTALITY SHOWN

lodging house on Commercial street.
The surrounding circumstances indi-
cate that Barnett was lured to the
room last night, robbed and then bru-

been beaten to death by some blunt
instrument that had cut his face and
head so as to be almost unrecogniza-

been bound and gagged before having
been killed The disordered condition
of the room gave evidence that he
had made a struggle for his life but

Barnett entered the room about
midnight last night with two other
men, one of whom had previously
rented the room. Both these men have

USUAL STIRRING INCIDENTS

TAWNEY is CRITICAL
Calls Attention to the Vast Expendi-

Passes But Few Unimportant Bills
and Closes Its Existence.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The six
tieth congress ended at noon today
The final act, though unofficial, in so
far as the house was concerned, took
place in the senate chamber where
both houses witnessed the incoming of
the new administration. The senate
will meet at noon tomorrow to consid-
er President Taft's nominations, but
the house will not convene again until
the extra session begins on March 15.
The senate met at $40 this morn
ing, but the proceedings were confined
to the most formal talk. Vice Presi-
dent Fairbanks delivered an address
in response to resolutions thanking
him for his conduct of the office.
Immediately after adjournment of
the siXtieth congress, the proclama-
tion of the president calling the SEN
ate in extraordinary session to con-
slider appointments was read.
Utterly lacking in all the stirring
incidents usually marking the closing
of a congress the house at 11:59
o'clock was declared by Speaker Can
non to be adjourned, without day.
Having reconvened at 10 O'Clock in
the morning tne Two nOurS were spent
in cleaning up conference reports and
passing a few bills of no great public
interest.
The special committee appointed to
wait upon the president, as is the
custom, reported that he had no fur
ther communications to make. The
speaker wished the members peace
health and prosperity and the house
adjourned.
During the sessions, Chairman Taw.
ney of the appropriations committee
in the house, declared that the expen
ditures of the government had at nc
time except in war increased as rapid
| ly as during the last eight years. He
severely criticized the executive
branch for submitting estimates of ex
penditures far in excess of estimates
of receipts.
