WATSON joins
IN BEER Fight
Georgia Foe of Liquor Says
Anti-Saloon League Is
Going Too Far
HOLD UP SHIP
REGULATIONS

WASHINGTON. d. c., July 20
A savage assault on the Willis
Campbell anti-beer bill by Senator
Watson (Ga.), who boasted he had
been a lifelong temperance advocate
and sworn foe OF saloons. marked
discussion OF the measure in the
Senate yesterday.
At the same time the Treasury
Department decided 20 hold up pro-
posed regulations affecting foreign
ships with liquor cargoes OF stores.
The Treasury's action was prompt
ed by a desire 10 avoid any action
which might embarrass the Govern
ment in its relations with foreign
Governments.
Preliminary to the Watson speech,
Senator Walsh (Mont) argued in
favor Of the constitutionality OF the
proposal. to bar physicians from
prescribing beer as a medicine for
patients. This led TO a heated dis
pute between several Senators as to
the medicinal qualities Of beer.
Extended speeches were made by
Senators Edge (N. J.). and Nelson
| (Minn.), the former insisting that the
anti-beer bill would lead to greater
law breaking; while Senator Nelson
contended that without Il prohibi-
ton could not be enforced and that
the fight for prohibition would be
lost unless physicians were pre-
vented from prescribing beer.
Senator Watson. following Senator
Nelson. told Of a fifty years fight he
had made in behalf Of temperance;
that he was now on the water
wagon for life, but that he could
not in justice to his conscience and
belief in righteous principle sub
scribe to a measure which in his
opinion would lead to greater law.
breaking and which would put
millions Of dollars into the pocket.
Of the cocaine and soft drink trusts.
THE first thing we know we shall
be having some one telling us wha
we shall wear. eat use. when We
shall do it and how much We shall
pay for It,"
Senator Watson charged that th'
Anti-Saloon League was sailing un
der false colors.
when you say TO physician
what they shall prescribe you ar
going too far" Senator Watson said
He insisted that sentiment II

ALTO Divide TO
SEE WORK BEGIN
VERY SHORTLY

It has been stated on good au-
thority that the Alto Divide mine
will soon resume operations. This
property Is one of the most favor
ably located in the Divide ore zone
by reason Of its close promiX.ty to
its great neighbors, the Gold Zone
and Tonopah Divide mines.
The main workings OF the Gold
Zone and Divide properties are only
from 500 to 500 feet from the Alto
lines, the working shafts of the
three mines being less than 1909
feet apart
Very important orebodies have
been recently developed in the Gold
Zone, which place it in the position
of a regular shipper while the To-
|nopah Divide already has the dis
tinction of being a regular producer
and shipper
Since the discovery of ore in the
Alto Divide mine. two great ore
reserves have been developed, show
ling the same character of ore with
the same values as that being mined
Iby the two neighboring properties
The operations that have beer
carried out for the past few months
by the Alto Divide have opened the
east and west vein on the 400 leye
