Raleigh, K»b. 27. — Developing
"Section 10" as the salvation clause,
the senate sent the no-called Volstead
bill through third reading to ratifica
tion this morning, and the trio of
republicans voted afllnaativeljr. The
vote was 47 to 2,
The measure is now the lew of tbs
state, and although "section 10" per
mits the keeping of liquor In one's
own herme for personal use, no other
section exists that helps one to le
gally get hoM of it Albeit tho sen
ate accepted the section and the re
publicans followed Leader Haymore
in his declaration that “section 10 hi
thie bill i* good enough for mo.” ha
may or may not have been thinking
of a certain famous "Article 10."
when he explained his vote.
Tho two negative votca came from
Senator Harry Stub be of Martin who
explained he wax again* it for rea
sons previously eat forth by Senator
Baggett, of Harnett, and for other
reasons which he did not care to
state, and from Senator Tapp, of Le
noir, who merely voted no and did
not rise to reason why.

effects of a deadly poison that is ae
cuwomod at time* to creep into cow's

Dr. J. M. Hodges, republican, of
Avery, while voting aa hit leader,
protested the failure of the measure
to contain a clasts* allowing the pro
curing of whiskey for personal use
in the home, and sprang the substitute
for snakebite, which Senator Baggett
used with considerable eloquence and
much feeling.
When some on* sought to eall o
halt on the Harnett senator’s speech.
Senator Rive**, of Johnston, roe* to
make the motion for more time with
the provlifon that If exemption should
be finally inserted the easterners
