CABANISS FERTILIZER
BILL BEAT BY SENATE
Both Houses Weld Blade and
Slaughter Bills Tuesday
Afternoon,

Both houses of the general assembly
used the knife and bludgeon on all
legislation coming before them Tuesday
afternoon. The senate began the
slaughter. and soon the massacre in the
house followed.
In the senate the Cabaniss bill, pro-
hibiting the use of filters in fertilizers;
the Alexander bill, limiting the hours
of child labor in mills; the Brown BILL
requiring examination for locomotive
firemen. and the Beauchamp educa-
tional bill all went BY the way into the
slough where only dead bills are found.
In the lower branch a wrangle over
the Morris garnishment bill consumed
most of the afternoon, and when the
smoke cleared away the measure looked
like the elected Roosevelt delegates at
the regular Republican convention. The
house voted IS to SIS to disagree to a
favorable report Of the committee.

Privileged Glasses and
Whisky Men
Especial Dispatch to The Journall


LAGRANGE, Ga, Aug 4.-"All trou-
bic in making state laws originates with
what we might term the privileged par
ty," declared Hon. Hooper Alexander in
opening his speech to about 200 citizens
at the court house Tuesday night, in this
city. Representative Alexander was in
good speaking trim, and consequently
trimmed the privileged classes to s, turn
in his speech.
He recited in detail how continuous
bombardment of lobbying literature ond
talk was hurled at the newly elected
LEGISLATOR from the time OF his election
until he was garnered into the ranks of
those legislators who will 10 the bidding
OF lobbyists representing liquor and allied
interests in Georgia.
Mr.. Alexander stated further the ulti-
mate tendency of events was toward
crushing out OF privileges, of privileged
classes and restoration Of this country
to true Democracy. He declared that
Georgia was in the clutches Of the whisky
trust at this Sime, and that the liquor in
terests were behind every move made
against the people by the privileged class.
He disclosed in detail the alleged work.
ings of liquor people and showed how
Atlanta judges who were called upon to
pass upon locker clubs and blind tiger
cases were members in good standing Of
locker clubs. which he dubbed as the
creatures Of wealthy classes and there
fore immune from grand jury and court,
indictment or prosecutions.
He stated that his main purpose In
running for the suber1aturial chair was to
get into position where he could stamp
out the liquor business in Georgia.
STATE ROAD EXTENSION.
He advocated also the
ztste's railroad from Atlanta to the sea
and measures which he has fostered in
he state legislature. Mr.. alexander was
heartily received after his speech. and an
invitation to speak at West Point was
extended to him, but he started thet III

date.
Mr.. Alexander declared that the liquor
interests had gradually encroached upon
the rights extended to them since the
passage OF the prohibition law OF 1907,
until at the present time practically open
bars. selling every grade of intoxicants,
were allowed to operate In large cities
of the state, and that the practice was
gradually extending to the smaller cities
and towns Of Georgia.
He claimed that his opponent John NJ.
Slaton, was president of a locker club,
and as such evidently would favor liquor
interests IL elected governor. He defed
Slaton to make a statement as to his
stand upon this issue, and again re-
iterated his challenge TO Slaton To meet
him in joint debate upon the issues in

GRACE CAN'T GET WELL;
OPERATION WAS USELESS
Surgeons Failed to Locate Bull
Ietl but Say Removal Would
Do No Good

After keeping Eugene Grace on the
operating table for four hours and a
half Tuesday and making an incision
three inches, surgeons failed to reach
the bullet which wounded him. but de-
cided that the ball is not lying within
the canal and that the removal of it is
not necessary.
DR.. Baxter Moore, who performed the
operation with the assistance of DR.. J..
S. Clifford, said that the incision will
have no effect on Graces condition
According to him. the wounded man is
neither better nor worse for the opera
ton.
1t 1 sthe opinion of Dr. Moore that
Grace will lie on his back, helpless
from the waist down, for the rest of
his days.
DIR. Moore sees no hope for Grace's
recovery, and does not expect him to
live longer than six months or at most
a year.
His wonderful nerve in facing the
operation, especially just before admin
istering the gas. was marveled at by
.Drs. Moore and Clifford. Grace was alb
solutely unafraid and seemed happy
that he was soon to lose consciousness
and be subject to the surgeons knife.
When Grace was taken from the oper-
ating table he rallied quickly. though
he had been unconscious for four and
a half hours.
The surgeons were misled by the
X-ray pictures. The bullet was not
where they thought it lay; and after
cutting three inches along the spine
they gave up the search for it as USE
less.
In the opinion of DR.. Moore the bull
let is embedded in the ninth dorsaI
vertebra, but is not within the canal
and is causig pressure o the cord
The cord was bruised as the bullet
ranged downward, but these bruises
seem to have healed.
In addition to making an incision
three inches long. the surgeons went
deep cough to raise the spial coiHmn
and look under it.
Advices from the Georgian hoEpital
early Wednesday morning stated that
Grace had spent a restless night, though
he appeared cheerful despite the nausea
resulting from the gas anesthetic.
The patient was not allowed to talk of
the operation though he seemed aware of
the fact that the bullet was still en-
bedded in his body. He is maintaining
the same determined attitude that has
characterized his demeanor from the day
he was shot
