Argument on Blackburn'a county patrol bill waa begun but un flnlahed. The houae met at 10 o'clock, with the uaual prayer, roll call and reading of i he journal. Sir. Covington, of Colquitt, aa vice chairman of the committee on temper- an ", reported favorably a bill by Mr. Itinker, of Clarke, to abollah the dis pensary at Athene. On a joint revolution by Meaara. An- d«' ■ on and Stovall, of Chatham, Thurs day evening, July 1C, waa set aa the tlni* for the general aeeembly to be addressed by lion. Walter G. Charl ton. of Savannah. The houae resolved Itself Into a com mittee of the whole to consider the bill b> Mr. Blackburn, of Fulton, to eatab- llrh county patrol* by the county grand juries. Mr. Nolan, of Henry, took the chair. Pokes Fun at Bill. An amendment to the Blackburn bill, Introduced by Mr. Rainey, of Schley, created quite a laugh tvhen read before the house. It was as follows: • "Amend by adding, that each of said patrola be provided with four galling guns and alx blood hounds." Mr, Blackburn, of Fulton, and Mr. I’.irter, of Floyd, spoke In favor of the bill Mr. Knight, of Berrien, opposed the bill In a speech. Joe Hill Hall Takta Floor. Mr. Hall, of Bibb, opposed the bill on the ground that It contained much mischief. He roundly scored county < "urt offlclala for prosecuting poof "niggers" for shooting "crepa" for a penny. Strong hints at grafts among county court offlclala were made by wholesale by Mr. Hall. Ue eontlnued: "'Twould make an Irresponsible county police. The nlggera who are pulled up In courts are not the mean tleveling nlggera. They ain't got nuth- I n'. The criminal laws are enforced to make money for court offlclala. I betters that these court offlclala should t>e put on a salary. 1 have long op- f'sed this, but the abuse of the pres ent eystem has led me to this view. 1 am opposed to discrimination In en forcing laws. "1 understand In some counties police out paid so much a head for the nigger gamblers they bring In. ‘T understand In the supreme court iho other day that here In Fulton coun tv out here at Armour's plant, some niggers were In a house talking one Saturday night, when a hobo nigger came In and started a game. He left and the county police appeared and the niggers were arrested and while they wire being brought to town the hobo, w ho had come back, escaped and these niggers were lined $90 and $79 when tried. - Political Bailiffs. "This bill provides for the constables to be sort of ex-offlelo captains, doesn't It? My Clod! The worst thing In tho world la a political bailiff. (I-augh ter.l "This bill gives a lot of Irresponsible fellows authority to raise hell In the country. (Laughter.) ' "You pass this bill and In twenty four hours every officer In the county courts would have a contract with these ratrolo." Mr. Hall was asked several questions In regard to Macon. "I live In Macon, but 1 am not re- sponsible for It." "Have all tho nlggera left Macon?" asked Mr. Anderson, of Chatham. "All the good 'uns, but we have police officers who are responsible and would like this patrol, running uut the ggera. "You pass tills bill and as soon as , the niggers are run sway these patrols will start on the poor white folks and 'Run. nigger, run, or the pat- i ol'll catch you' will be sung In Oeorgla again. The patrols will have these poor folk- running nil over the flelde." .Mr. Longley, of Troup, differed from kf:> Hall, fie said In part: “My friend from Bibb Is a prophet of evil. He le In favor of protecting the rural districts, he says, but opposed to gran t juries appointing, what he says, would be Irresponsible parties, who w ould drive the nlggera away, "1 believe the grand Juries of the slate arc made up from the best men In the elate, and they do con«-**n- II oils work. I would have lnt» uced just such a bill us this, had not my friend froth Fulton dohe so. 1 trust this committee will report this bill fa- toinbly to the house." Mr. Menn to the Defenee. Mr. Mann, of Catoosa, answered Mr. Hall, whose arguments, he said, smack ed too much of crap shooting niggers. He defended the grand Juries from the attack'made by the gentleman from lilbb. He said: "This bill did not originate wXh the gentleman from Bibb, It Is true, but g i el can come from other sources. "The gentleman from Hlbb damns the constables. I don't believe these constables are all dishonest." Mr. Felder, of Bibb, differed from .Mr. Hall, whom be answered Iowa Officials Resign By Wholesale Because Deprived of Railroad Passes By Private Leased Wire.
