ALABAMA PROHIB BILL SIGNED Selling or Storing of Liquids Having Over One-Half of One Per Cent. of Alcohol Illegal. Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 9.-Gov ernor Comer, at 6:30 o 'clock this af ternoon signed the Carmichael pro bibition bill in the presene. of Mrs. J. B. Mell, president of the Alabama Division, Woman's Christian Tem perane Union, and other women. An odd coincidence was that Sena tor Hamburger, of Mobile, was the only member c f the Legislature pres .ent. He had gone to the Executive office on-other business. Senator Ham burger was one of two senators who voted against the bill, and the only Senator who spoke against it. Under this Act, it is unlawful to sell or to store any liquids contain ing more than one-half of 1 per cent. alcohol. Locker clubs are illegal and the possession of a United States in ternal revenue license shall be con sidered prima facie evidence of guilt. Truly, Alabama is to-night a dry 'State. The Fuller bill and the Ballard bill are still pending in the House. They are more radical than the Carmichael bill and are designed to aid in the en forcement of the latter. The Fuller bill prohibits any sort of liquor ad vertising, and throws every safeguard around the law. The Ballard bill pro vides for the impeacihment of officers who fail to put the law into effect. Both of these bills will be passed. The contest over the bill submitting D PI hiskie at .Reaonblrce H.

August 9.- "The Government of t2he United States is sittinz idle while millions of dollars of natural resources are going to waste." said Commissioner Watson of the South Carolina department of agriculture, commerce and industry, before the National Irrigation Con gress today.
