PRIMARY ON LIQUOR QUESTIO Lieut. Govornor McLeod Oast tho D< ciding Voto in Favor of Leaving Settlement to tho People. News and Courier. Columbia, February 7.?-At tb afternoon session of tlio senate seni tor Qnrydon said ho hoped that tb Talbert resolution asking tho Dome cratic Convention to havo a primar on the liquor question would be kil ed. He had hoped that tihe preser statute would satisfy every one. Th resolution was unnatural and un wise, ho said, but the General Ai sembly ought never to ask a part convention t'o have a primary, Th action would be out of all order. Senator Raysor said he was not prohibitionist, but if he were h could not vote for such a resolutioi The Democratic parly could take ac tion ifil wished, but it would not com port with Hit- dignity <>f Ihe senat to ask any parlv to have Ibis hallo If the Democratio people want Chi election on liquor then they can d< so. Th.> senate :s not to ask peopli to do things, 1 >11( |.h<> thing to do is |i make laws. lie believed in veiling 01 issues .'ind not passing them along. Sen.Urn I>at os was utterly oppose, to the legislature asking any party t< do this or the other Ibiny. The par ty should lake care of its own affairs and the lawmaking power has iu rig?it to butt in and suggest wha any parly wants. lie expected t-hii iciy election would bo held undei orders tmm the Democratic party and he would then vote for prohihi lion. Senator Rogers saw no argumcn against this resolution. There an ample laws regulating the primaries he said. and this resolution looked l? the holding of a stmight election. ITi said he believed all Ihe people of tin 'Stale wanted prohibition. Senator Talbert defended his reso lulion, and said it was right and ha< common sense in iI. and that then was nn hiding behind bushes on tech niealif ies. 'Senator Mauldin said lie was ai out-and-out local optionist, but h thought the resolution all right am favored il. Senator lirice was opposed to th< whole dispensary idea, lie was all solutely opposed to a Slate or conn ty dispensary, but he honestly an sincerely felt that a wrong would 1) done the cause of prohibition shouh this issue be forced. lie thought' i good faith to lei mailers alone, an was absolutely opposed to forein. prohibition on a community (hat. di "Ol want- it. T/q well enough alom he said, and let tho counties wor up county prohibition sentiment and then let each county do as i pleases. He did not want any ohangc lie wanted the present law to stand State urohiibi I ion would jriopardi/.i Ihe good conditions now obtaining ii this and other counties. He bcgge< the senate not to jump to Sfate pro hibit ion, and in that way lose conn ty prohibition in time. Georgia wil soon find that she made a mistake ii passing a Slate prohibition laiw, in stead of adopting a local option sys tem. The sentiment is behind pro hibit ion when the people of a count) are behind il. If a majority of tin people of a county do not want pro hihihon il cannot be enforced, and It force il will jeopardize what goo,' has been accomplished. Senator Mease wanted |,h,> mallei 7>ui in Ihe Democratic primary, be cause he wanted some other' issue than liquor made an issue in thy State primary. lie said it would please the peo pic lo remove the liquor quasi iot tfram future campaigns. The question then came up on tin passage of the resolution and a tii vote resulted, 17 to 17, as follows Yeas?Hates, Rivens, .Rrice, Car lisle. Christ onsen, Clifton, Eflrd Graydon, 1 Fancy.
