W. Bailey, of .the State Executive Committee, submitted his report, stating that he deemed it in expedient to ask, for State prohibition just yet. The same sentiment was ex pressed by Mr. Scales. Mr. Bailey said that prohibition forced upon a municipality was not a success; vthe campaign of education to higher mor als rnusl be kept up. The convention was in session until nearly midnight today. After a lengthy discussion a platform and resolutions were adopted, declaring in favor of State prohibition, but agreeing that for the present the Legislature shall be asked only to strengthen and ex tend the present laws; pass a more stringent anti-jug law for dry coun ties and making the possession of Federal license prima facie evidence ! of retailing. It was also decided to demand a more general enforcment of the laws now on the books. Of the membership of the convention, prob ably 75 per cent, were in favor of State prohibition, and making a de mand at this session of the General Assembly for a State election, but Governor Glenn in a speech of more than an hour and a half advised that uo demand be made at present, only that the laws be more rigidly en forced. He bad learned Chat the Leg islature at this resslon would not grant tho request for a Stale election on prohibition. He thought best to call for a strict enforcement of exist ing laws with State prohibition as an ultimate coal. However, he pledged himself to lead a campaign for State prohibition if the conven tion, after prayer and deliberation. thought best to undertake such a cam paign at 'the present time. The ses sions continue tomorrow.

President Taylor, of the Chamber of Commerce, was - the ' first - "wftness" for the business men.
