Prohibition Drive Tops Tennessee Legislature Split
Nashville January 4 Tennessee lawmakers elected to fight liquor as state wide prohibition supporters take control. William Kinney speaker of the Senate and Hillman M Taylor preside in a Democratic split with Republicans and anti Patterson Democrats forming the coalition. Taylor and Kinney both align with anti administration forces and the house adjourned after a tight caucus showing. The action marks a clear defeat for Governor Patterson supporters and signals a partisan shift in state policy.
