It was an uneventful session that the
members of the home of representa-
lives held Monday morning:. A feeble
efTort waa made to stir up some more
enthusiasm on the tax assessor bill, but
from the apathy shown Monday the
Are of Friday's session had all burned
out. The bill, without the amendment
to make the railroad commissioners the
tax assessors, was passed almost unan-
lmously.
A number of new bills were Intro-
duced. Among these was one to estab
lish a Georgia state sanitarium for In
cipient tuberculosis. This bill carries
an appropriation of S25.Q00.
A bill to make a new judicial circuit

After prayer, roll call and the read
ing of dally Journal, under the hend
of unfinished business, the bill by Mr.
Hall, of Bibb, to create a state board
of tax assessors waa taken up. The
call for the previous question waa sus
tained and the ayes nnd nan on the
amendment of Mr. Perry, of Hall, were
called. A number of representatives
explained their votes In the usual three
minutes allowed each member for that
purpose.
Mr. Felder, of Bibb, made the point
that Mr. Perry, of Hall, had a bill now
In the house to abolish the railroad
commissioners, and in the same breath
he would give them this new duty. Sev
eral members of the house In explain
ing their vote, said they would vote to
make the railroad commissioners the
tax assessors If the former were elect
ed by the people.
Said Hall Flopped.
Mr. Knight, of Berrien, In explaining
hla vote, took Mr. Hall to task for ad
vocating his bill. He charged Mr. Hall
with voting against the railroads for
seven long years, but finally going over
to the camp of tho enemy.
“It la the enemy who have come to
my camp,” retorted .Mr. Hall.
The amendment of Mr. Perry waa
loat by a vote of 60 ayes to 77 naya.
The bill waa then passed by a vote
of 122 to 8.
