The first month since last February

corresponding month of the year be-
fore was July. The report for July,
1915. shows an increase of s1,447 over
that for July, 1914. Commenting on
the report the Wall Street News says:

railway lines are also being affected
by business conditions, the company
for July reported a gain of s5,041, or
la per cent in gross, with an In
crease of sI.447 In net over July, 1914.
While earnings of the street railway
are recovering from the depression of
the earlier months OF the year. It is In
the electric light and power depart

GEORGIA PROHIBITION
BILLS CONSTITUTIONAL
Liquor Interests Inspire Report TO
Contrary Which Is Promptly Chal-
lengcd by Temperance Champion.

Especial to The Richmond Virginian.)
Atlanta, Sept. 6.-The contention
that the prohibition bills passed by
the Senate at the recent session OF
the Legislature are unconstitutional.
and that Governor Harris lacks the
authority to include prohibition In
his call for the extra session, which
have recently been advanced by Rep
resentative II. j. Fullbright. of Burke.
are answered today by Thomas b.
FEEDER. a well known Atlanta lawyer.
in an open letter to Representative
that the bills are constitutional" says
Fullbright.
The highest and best evidence
Mr.. Fielder in his letter. is the fact
that they were bitterly opposed by
the liquor forces, who, IL the bills
had been unconstitutional, would
have interposed no opposition TO the
enactment"
Speaking OF the failure of the bills
to pass the House, Notwithstanding
the fact that a two-thirds majority
of the House favored them. Mr.. Fell
der declares:
.In the las. two decades the ad-
vocates of prohibition have been
thwarted in the accomplishment of
their purpose BY the efforts and ma
chinations Of the liquor forces in the
State These forces have succeeded
In having adopted a set OF rules gov
erning the procedure of the House
and Senate which enables small
majority OF liquor men to absolutely
dominate both bodies.
As to the contention that the Gov
ernor has no authority to include pro-
hibition in his call, Mr.. Fielder says:
This is newspaper talk. pure ana
simple. inspired by the liquor inter-
ests of Georgia, and comes from no
other source"
Mr.. Fielder then quotes the section
OF the Constitution relating TO call
for an extra session by the Governor,
and constituting the scope of the Gov
ernor's authority under this section.
Mr. Fielder says;
THE matter of converting the Cen
eral Assembly rests In the sound dis
erection Of the chief executive. The
matter to be included In the call like
wise rests in his sound discretion
He is clothed with the discretion to
isclude any matter which. In his
Judgment should be included, ana
omit all matters that should. in. his
Judgment. be omitted.

is a most attractive one and a winter

Speaking of the course, the Baraca-
Philathea official organ of the assoc
citation says:
Cast Will Be Small.
We have been able to get these ten
attractions at figure that will al
low us TO sell tickets for one dollar for
all ten entertainments. This is the
most remarkable feature of the whole
arrangement as a great many of these
entertainments would sell tickets fer
more than dollar for the one night.
Every entertainment in the series In
well worth while.
THE executive committee decided to
run this course for several reasons. It
is not run primarily to make money.
and for this reason we have cut the
price so that very little profit is made,
and a great part of this profit will go
Ito the individual classes.
THE L4yceum was decided on be-
cause we wished to furnish some place
where Barracks and Philatheas could
assemble and enjoy themselves and not
have to spend large amount Of
money: giving the people of Rich
mond the pleasure OF a first class err
.tertainment at the price charged by
the moving picture and cheap vaude-
willie houses. OF course. these enter.
'tainments will be open to anybody.
but a great part of the audience will
he composed of Baracas and PhilA-
theas.
"A successful course of this kind
was of considerah bile advertising value
to an organization such as ours. and
we have realized this in getting up
this course. If you will look over tho
list of attractions you will see that all
are first class.
Tickets will be put on sale after
the league meeting in Septem ber.
