HObsOn Amendment Yet to Be Subject of Bitter and Acrimonious Rebate Be- fore That Body
LEADERS IN VAIN
 SOUGHT TO PREVENT
 ACTION THIS SESSION
Many Prohibitionists Not Desirous of
 Forcing Consideration of Measure. Result Probably Will Cause Shake
 Up in Membership of the House
By c. E. STEWART

Washington. June S--t specinl.l l-Aft- CT nII the House of Representatives Is to be the scene of q bitter and acrI- monious debate at this session over the proposition of submitting to the states constitutional amendment providing nation-wide prohibition.
 It developed today that House rules committee is preparing a special rule, to force consideration of the Hohson ariend- ment. A poll of the committee disclosed that the members stood to in favor of reporting out such a rule.
 The prohibition members of the House are not desirous of bringing the IIobson amendment to a vote al this time. They recognize that they are facing defeat. second poll of the House showed clear ly that the two-thrds majority neces- sary to adopt the constitutional amend- ment would not be forthcoming. Tn fact. bare majority could be marshaled in support of It.
 Anxious to Get Away
 The House leaders have sought in vain tc prevent consideration of the subject at this session. They are anxious to get away to enter the campaign and to look after their political fences. They reeog nize. too. that the subject Of prohibition is loaded with political dynamite, and that a vote on 1t on the eve of the con gressional campaign is certain to result in A shake-up in the membership of the House.
 While the leaders have been seeking to prevent consideration of the ttobson amendment, the prohibition forces in the | country have back fired. on them. So 1 powerful has been the pressure brought
 to bear on the prohibition advocates In l the House and especially on those who 1 have showis teluatanee to bring the mats 1 ter to immediate vote, that many of theE. | have been forced to yield to save their
 political lives.
 Largely Southerners 1 The personnel of the rules committee comes largely from southern or prohibi- ton territory Much of this pressure from the country has been concentrated on the committee with the result that it's members do not dare further to strug- gle against it.
 The fact that the amendment Is to be thrown before the House under the spe- cial rule Is not yet generally known. The leaders who are opposed to t are en- gagged in making plans for It's defeat. It is believed the rule will be offered in the House sometime this week. It Is certain to be the subject of bitter and animated debate before it Is referred to l the rules committee. It is conceded that | reference will be made that lt requires | only majority vote to insure this ac-
 ton once in committees 1t Is prac- 1 tlcally certain to be reported in due form 1 back to the House.

THE OLD TIME JUGS.

The finest croCkery to be had any
where is manufactured near Jug
town, N. c., which got lis name
during the war from the fact that SO
many jugs were made there. Capt.
Wade johnson of Jugtown has been
at the business SO yeers At Henry,
N. G.. two miles below JugtoWH.
Mr.. Lawrence Leonard does a big
business in the CroCkery line and
some of the prettiest ware you ever
saw comes from his factory, from
one half gallons to the 10 gallon va
riety in crooks, jugs, etc. TO one
VINO never saw jug made it is real
interesting, simply the manipulation
of bill tf cay by the slan1s
which make it assume any shape
desired. But it takes an expert to
do the work and lift the jug from
the block without running it. After
they dry in the open a~littIe they
are put in a brick furnace and sub
iected to white heat to melt the
gle zing and harden the clay before
fhey are finished. The editors faith
er followed the trade in his younger
days and was pretty good at the
business.

he returhed, of the fine trip going,

But the rub came when England
declared war and the doctor was

friend of the unfortunates and was

turn. Before his death he destroyed
a large number of mortgages he held

luck and wrote them to his effect.
His bequests to churches. schools,
