Indefinite Postponement of Local Liquor Bill Sparks Debate
The Fort Lions house delayed action on the quart prohibition bill amid heated debate and amendments. Temperance advocates filled the gallery as Dr. Maxwell argued for statewide liquor wipeout while Meriwether pressed for delay. The measure risks no further consideration this session unless reconsidered. The session also moved a criminal trials expediting bill to a special order and approved a military expenditure inquiry. In the Senate a brief session approved Savannah land transfer to US for a custom house and bailouts.
