Governor Bullock Spending Money*
With thi Lawtzbs.—It is th* duty of the Attorney
General to fire legal counsel upon all questions when
called upon by tha Oovemor, and to represent the
State In sni test law, where the State is sporty. For
this aerv;j.f the law prescribes that be shall receive a
ealary of two thousand dollars, and that be shall re
ceive no other compensation as Attorney General.
In any case, before any Court, where the Attorney
General really needs help, theGovernor is authorized
to employ assistant counsel, aud pay a reasonable
fee out of tiio contingent fund. Bullock, however,
has spent not toss than $38,600 in fees tc -awyers—
most of it in coses where not even the services of
ths Law Officer of ths State was necessary. He has
gone outside to lawyers—sometimes to men of dis
tinguished ability—and st other times to those not
distinguished, sad where there wss no need of
it whatever. Ouo single lawyer has drawn over
$8,000 from the Treasury for thi* kind of servioe,
while a number have drawn very large amounts,
ranging from $500 to $1,600.
Not a fourth of this money was properly or nec
essarily spent. In almost every single case it was
equivalent to throwing the money In the fire, so for
as any benefit to the State was derived.
To illustrate: A portion of the stockholders of
the Macon aud Western Railroad, and other parties,
sued out an Injunction against the officers of that
company, which was lately tried in Macon, to pre
vent the consummation of the lease to the Central
Railroad. Bullock empfciyed some four or flvs law
yers to represent the State iu that caao, in order to
prevent the lease. Gen. Phillips, of Marietta, Col.
Bacon, of Macon, Anderson A Lanier (Clifford An
derson, t Chalrman of the State Democratic Executive
Committee), of Macou,and B. B. Hinton, of Colum
bus, wc believe, were employed by Bullock for this
very useless business. Why should tho State of
Georgia oppose that lease T What Interest could the
State government have in it either way T And for
this very needless service Bullock has agreed to pay
them $1,260 each—so wo hear. This amounts to
$4,000 of the people's money thrown sway by the
reckless creature who sits iu the Governor's chair.
Cau auy one tell us the object of Bullock in thus
scattering the State's resources with s lavish hand,
where they are not needed and cannot do any good 7
Why has be been advertising his proclamations
heavy—publishing them in nearly every paper in the
State 7 Has he expected to secure the influence aud
support ot men sad papers who, otherwise, would
not have been In his favor 7 It this Is hie calcula
tion, we are sure be has reckoned without his host.
Aud these immense fees to lawyers who have been
paid at the State Treasury are only a part of what
was spent In the same way by Bullock end Blodgett,
for similar needless, pretended services in connection
with tho Western and Atlantic Railroad. Tho Gov
ernor made a contract with Col. Farrow to discharge
the duties of attorney of the Western end Atlantic
Railroad, at a salary of $3,600 per year, and then
called on other lawyers for opinions on tbe merits
