Yeomans Starts Debate.
At the conclusion of the speeches
the house went into committee of
the whole to dissolve automatically
at $3.50, and report progress.
Mr.. Yeomans, of Terrell, was the
first to speak upon the question. Mr.
Yeomans' argument was for the ere
alton of a commission, none of whose
members should come from the house
or senate.
Mr.. Culpepper of Meriwether,
wanted to know why no member of
the legislature should be upon such a
commission.
1T is repugnant to the constitu-
ton said Mr.. Yeomans, that any
member of this house should vote to
create an office and then accept an
appointment to such an office. ="
Judge Atkinson asked whether
Mr.. Yeomans did not think that
members of the house are competent
to handle this question.
The gentleman from Terrell said
that such was not his thought. That
there were members who are capa-
BILE, he said. does not preclude the
selection of experts who are not
house or senate members.
Mr. Culpepper then wanted to
know what assurance Mr.. Yeomans
could give that the governor would
appoint experts and not politicians. ="
'@The assurance that I have re-
Piled Mr.. Yeomans, heatedly, is the
knowledge that the governor of the
state as an honest, upright man who
would never stoop to such thing. ="
Don't you think the speaker and
the president are just as upright and
capable of appointing proper mem
bers of the commission" asked Mr..
-Culpepper.
Mr.. Yeomans stated that in no
manner could his remarks be con-
strued as a reflection on the presid-
ing officers of the assembly.

STA TT LOSES IN RE VENUE
HALF A MILLION A YEAR
With the Closing Under New Prohibition Law OF Clubs and
Beer Saloons in the Cities On First Day OF Next Way

Naturally the clubs will have to
shut their doors. The interesting
mart of il is that the law affects not
only the locker clubs that have
sprung up since the prohibition law
of 1907 was enacted, and many
of which have been characterized as
ssup stairs barrooms," but the old
time social clubs of Atlanta, SaVan-
nah and other cities in which liquors
have been dispensed strictly and sole
" to members and their out OF town
guests from time immemOriaL
The members of these social CLUBS
never believed they were violating
any law. Until the prohibition law OF
1907 went into effect they were not
even taxed for dispensing liquors to
the members, upon the theory that
the club stood TO the member very
ronch in the same relation as his
home-that it was private lnstltu-
+ion for members only and for such
Quests. not residents of the CITY,
whom they could carry there the
same as they would to their own din
ing tables.

After the passage of the la" Oh
1907 and as the result Of the TACT
that in some cities of the state other
locker clubs suddenly sprang into eH-

now law, the legislature put tax
On locker clubs, just as on beer Sa-

would, in the long run, have accom-

With the assistance of the cOnserv-

Anti-Saloon League bills-they we

which the new measures shall go into
effect until May /, 1916. That was
the best they could get, and consid-
ering the temper Of the radicals they
we're perhaps lucky to get that.
How They Stood.
OF the big six counties of the state
two of them, Fulton and Floyd, stood
Dat throughout. Every member OF
their delegations was on hand for
every vote and stood to the guns I'M
til their Notifications were preached
and there was nothing left but sur
render with terms. The Chatham
delegation was equally staunch, vot-
ing against the radicals at every
point. The three others Of the
biz six counties of the state were
divided on the subject of prohibition.
The Richmond delegation had one
prohi and two ants, and a similar
situation developed as to Muscogee,
while Bibb had two prohis and one
anti. 1t was naturally thought, or
course, that the counties Of the state
where the large cities are located
would have solid opposition delega-
lions. but times and conditions seem
to have changed somewhat.
Ants Scattered.
Outside of the big counties the oth-
er ants were scattered here and
there over the state, hut amounted,
as a matter of fact, to a mere hand

long there is scarcely a doubt that
the conservatives would have gone
to the radicals and cooked the
goose"

Four Breweries, With Millions
Of Dollars Invested, Face
Heavy Loss.

ATLANTA.-So far as the legal
aspect of il is concerned 1t is all over
in Georgia with the beer and whisky
business on and after May l, 1910.
Then the locker clubs and near beer
saloons must close their doors, and II
they operate at all through back
door arrangements or otherwise they
come within the class of outlaws.
The most serious blow, perhaps
comes to the breweries of the state
located in Savannah, Atlanta, Macon
and Augusta. The friends of these
institutions had hoped there would
be left some loophole by which these
could continue in business. even II
they were compelled to make a grade
Of beer with only a small amount OF
alcohol, even as low as one-half OF
one per cent, which is the amount
the new prohibition bill permits IN
drinkables of the soft kind.
But upon this point the radical
prohibitionists were obdurate. They
insisted that no malt liquors of any
kind should be manufactured IN
Georgia at all, for fear that the brew
cries might ultimately overstep the
bounds and later on manufacture
drink with a greater amount OF al
cohol in it, when they found an op-
portunity for lodging the law.
Virtual ConfiscatiOn.
This action, it is pointed out, is al
most tantamount to the contiscatloh
OF property valued at something ike
million or million and a half dol
lars. The real estate and physical
properties of the brewing plants can
OF course, be sold for considerable
sum, but naturally for nothing IKE
what the plants are worth as going
concerns or even anywhere near the
value of the investment in them.
OF course hundreds of employees IN
the breweries as we'll as in the near
Deer saloons will have to look out lot
employment elsewhere. 1t is antlcl-
pated that most of the brewery en-
pioys will seek work with brewer1es
III other states, though others ana
naturally most of those with the bars
VIII find something else to do right

HOW TO LIVE With
BOIL WEEVIL MENACE
PRACTICAL FARMER AND MAN
OF EDUCATION GIVES SOME
INTERESTING ADVICE.
BfGINNOW TOMAKE NEXT CROP
Sacrifice the Late Cotton and Burn
All the Stalks and Trash in the
Fields and Deprive WeeviI of Its
Protected Winter Quarters.

A practical farmer and man of ed
ucation, now in the service of the
department of agriculture of the
United States, was asked if it were
possible to to grow as much cotton
with the boil weevil as without it,
and he answered: Yes, and no.
No, if the farming methods now in
vogue are followed His remarks
were as follows:
For the first year, he said, the
weevil does not do much damage.
The second year and the third year
it works devastation. About the
fourth year the farmer begins to
learn how to live with him.
Il knew a farmer who grew 700
bales of cotton on 700 acres of land
near Shreveport. The weevil cut his
yield down to 100 bales. Two years
later the farmer got his yield back to
700 bales.
There is way of living with the
boil weevil and here it is. Begin this
year to make next years crop. This
fall l would sacrifc some of the late
cotton and Immediately burn all the
stalks and trash on the field.
Il would do this to deprive the boil
weevil of a protected home during
the winter.
Then l would break the land
Then | would break the land
again in February.
Then l would plant three weeks
before the normal time, or just as
soon as l could.
Il would have the rows six feet
apart, or wide enough so as to insure
plenty of sunshine for every plant.
Il would chop the cotton out as
soon as possible, and then begin TO
pillow. 1 would go over that cotton
every ten days as long as it is safe to
pillow cotton.
That is what the successful Texas
and Louisiana cotton growers do to
beat the boil weevil. 1t is keeping
the soil clean, good preparation for
planting and rapid and frequent eul-
| tivation,"

C0NY IS VICTOR BY EASY MARGIN
OVER FREEP0RT At BASKETBALL

Playing all around their opponents
from the start Of the game to the fin
ish, the Cony basketball players de-
feated Freeport High by the score of
81 to IA Friday evening at the as
sembly hall of the High school. 1t
was an interesting game. Both teams
fought and fought hard but the adj
vantage was clearly with the home
team.
Capt. Wyer Of the Cony team made
the first goal Of the game and the
members of his team then began to
show their speed both on offensive and
defensive And at the end of the per-
iod Cony had II points to Freeport' S
g.
The visitors worked harded in the
second period: they covered better
and made finer shots but they were
unable to keep the ball in their pos
session for long at a time. The Cony
boys kept piling up the score and
when the timers whistle blew they
were in the lead by a margin Of %
points.
For the home team Wyer was the
star, making goals from the floor
and goals from fouls. Matthews and
Thyng each made four goals from the
floor. Purinton played fine game
at guard, keeping with his man every
minute. Dennis made goals from
the floor.
