With the hands of the big clock
pointing to midnight, though watches
»howed that it was 1:20 o’clock, with
floor littered with paper balls and oth
er missiles, with peace and good will
in their hearts and the strains of an
old hymn floating through the air, the
house of representatives adjourned sine
die Thursday morning.
The night session was not so tu
multuous as some which have marked
the close of the general assembly.
While It Is true that the members
were kept dodging paper balls at odd
moments and an amateur glee club In
the corridor Insisted on singing "Wav
Down Yonder In the Cornfield,” the
house was not so disorderly as to delay
business seriously. A number of bills
Here passed on the last day, though the
house made no attempt to meet the
senate record.
Just Some Fun.

to defeat the cigarette bill, marked the
closing session of the senate Wednes
day night.
They did It, but every Imaginable
dilatory tactic was used. Senator Rose
amazed the senate by a speech of ten
minutes, explaining his vote on a mo
tion to adjourn, with stinging state
ments of wrongs done him by some
body.
The presumption Is that he had ref
erence to something that occurred In
the Judiciary committee when the bill
given a favorable report. The sen-

their reverence for leaders like fresh- •* -------
men on the eve of their first com
mencement, and lacking new members
to haze, turned their attention to old
ones. Joe Hill Hall, the lion of the
tenter aisle, who had dominated the
house by riding roughshod over it day
after day, met his match when he spoke
measure near the closing hour.
The members Interrupted with question
after question, firing them from every
corner of the house and badgering the
gentleman from Bibb until his debate
turned into a roar. Mr. Smith, of
Greene, always the target for uproar
ious applause, was greeted with Joy
when he rose to speak, and after the
noise died away Mr. Felder, of Bibb,
paid a graceful tribute to the favorite
orator of the house.
Debate became heated at times. The
excitement of the closing day, the
knowledge that time was flying and
bills dying on the table, made several
members forget the parliamentary
courtesy which usually prevails, and
at times sharp words flew across tjie
house. Speaker Slaton hommerod his
desk until his arm was tired, but he
soon gave up the idea of guiding his
unruly team to any definite point, and
contented himself with keeping It In
the big road. No serious trouble arose
and any differences that arose on the
floor were forgotten at the midnight
hour when house and speaker paid
tribute to effcch other and the spirit of
friendship hovered over the scene of
wordy battles,
It was after midnight when Speaker
Slaton was called to the floor, and Mr.
Davis, of Burke, took the chair. Boy
kin Wright, of Richmond, rose In his
seat and In a graceful address present
ed' Speaker Slaton. In the name of the
house, with a handsome silver loving
cup. The speaker’s address of ac
knowledgment was one of the gems of
the session and proved that Mr. £|aton
had not forgotten his eloquence during
his enforced silence In the chair.
Mr. Dunbar, of Richmond, speaker
pro tern., was next honored with the
gift of a Jeweled heart, presented for
the house by Mr. Akin, of Bartow. Mr.
Dunbar responded eloquently. Clerk
John T. BoifeulUet was presented with
a wine service after a complimentary
address by Mr. Stovall, of Chatham,
and Reading Clerk McClatchey re
ceived a pair of cuff bottons with an
address from Mr. Felder. Madison Bell
then closed the presentations by a
well chosen address, complimenting
Mrs. Ledslnger, the postmistress, with
u piece of Jewelry.
Tho members left the house slowly
after the last rap of the gavel. Thero
were many handshakings and goodbys
among old friends and new. Many of
the old faces will be seen no more
in the house. Some have been elected
t<» the senate, others have either re
fused to accept another term or have
fallen a victim to the caprice of chang
ing politics. But the old guard will be
tuning enough when the house.con
venes again to give the new members
a welcome and teach them tho rules
In the little black book.
Work of Last Day.
The greatest fight of the closing
session was over the bill assigning the
new counties to senatorial districts.
The fight for the bill was led by Joe
Hill Hall, of Bibb, who won his points
after two hours of work on the floor
and succeeded In sweeping away ail
conflicting amendments proposed by
the two houses.
The measure, which was passed by
93 to 30, transfers Clarke county from
the Twenty-seventh to the Thirteenth
district; Dodge from the Fourteenth to
the Fifteenth district, and assigns the
new counties to districts as follows:
Toombs, Second district; Jeff Davis,
Third district; , Tift, Sixth district;
Grady, Seventh district; Turner, Tenth
district; Crisp, Fourteenth district;
Jenkins. Seventeenth district; Ste
rns, Thirty-first district.
The bill was made an immediate spo
il order at 9 o’clock and the light
xan at once, the representatives of
the Thirteenth district standing out
asalnst having Clarke county forced
i them. Mr. Anderson, of Chatham,
ed an amendment redistrloting the
■e state, but this and other amend
ments were tabled by the impatient

on his arraignment, replied that
wasn’t out for newspaper notoriety,
but would whisper his grievances aside
to anybody who wanted to hear them.
There were no takers.
Didn't Want a Vote.
It developed during the afternoon
session that the cigarette bill was not
going to be allowed to get down to a
vote If the opponents could avoid It.
It was clear that a majority of the
senate favored it, but the minority
against It was composed of a coterie of
gentlemen excessively smooth in stav
ing off things not desired.
The afternoon session went by with
out Its being reached. At the night
session tho senate order of business
kept it off until late. A mass of house
bills were skidded through, and once
or twice some fortunate party would
squeeze through a house general bill
that nobody cared nbrtut. It required
onsent without objection to do It. It
Is singular that two of the three cigar
ette smokers In the senate, Senators
Candler and Carswell, wanted It to
come to a vote.
Now and then Senator King or some
body would move to take up the cigar
ette bill, but Instantly Senator Steed or
Senator Miller interposed an objection.
The evening wore on until the clerk's
desk was cleared of local matters.
Some lime was spent in fiddling for an
opening on the cigarette measure.
Senator Foster slipped up on them
by moving consideration of. house bill
No. GO, and as no one objected, the
cigarette bill was taken up. Then be
gan a series of skirmishes ridiculous
to see. When the vote began on It, It
developed that no quorum was present
for the opponents took a quiet sneak
to unknown parts.
Then the roll call began to develop
whether a quorum was present or not.
It was there all right, but Senator
Steed moved to adjourn for ten min
utes, and Senator Miller demanded tho
aye and nay vote. That gave them a
shot at explaining their vote.
It was then about 11:30. Somebody
had placed a paper over the clock, but
It vanished shortly afterwards without
any one but the Interested parties ob
serving It. Then Senntor Roso made
his scare statement as to wrongs visit
ed on him.
An Iniquitous Bill.
Senator Crum got mightily excited
In explaining his vote. Ho said It was
the most Iniquitous bill he ever wot of,
and wanted to know what tho senate
meant frittering away time on such a
matter when other Important things
ought to occupy It.
“If you think that way, why don’t
you let the senate vote on It and de
cide?" queried Senator Carswell.
Senator Blalock, without committing
himself either way, said he did not be
lieve In killing legislation In any such
manner. But tho motion for a ten-
minutes recess pro vailed by a narrow
margin.
When th<s president rapped for order
agnin Senator Carswell, who had been
leading the fight for the bill to oomo
up, withdrew' his motion to consider it.
and that sounded the death knell over
the Porter anti-cigarette bill.
few minutes Senator Miller
casually cast ar. eagle eye gallery-
ward, and observed in stentorian tone
that the senate had expired by consti
tutional limitation. It was 12:01 Thurs
day, August 16, 1906.
Then everybody went over to the
house to see loving cups and other nice
things given away.

Injuries were forgot, wounds healed
and the hatchet burled In the final ses
slon of the senate.
At 8:30 Wednesday night the last
session of 1905-6 began with Senator
Rose In the chair, President West hav
Ing failed to arrive at that hour.
It was a kind of go-as-you-please
for the three and a half hours of the
wind-up. Everybody with taste for
smoked cigars and even when the dig
nified presiding oUlcer returned to his
duties the smoking went right along.
The gallery occupied more than one
member most of the time. Pretty girls
and handsome matrons were there until
a late hour. A senator would glance
up, smile, sneak, and a few minutes
later would be seen In animated con
versation with some fair visitor. Guer
ry Brannon, chief clerk to tho senate,
got so far behind with his work sev
eral times from rubbering at some par
tlcularly attractive maid that he Work
ed himself Into a fever afterwards try

Loving Cup for President.
About 11 o’clock Senator Wheatley
arose amid Impressive silence and call
ed the president to the floor. Then In
few happy words the senator from the
Thirteenth Introduced Senator Murphy
Candler, who made the speech present
ing a very handsome loving cup to
President West.
He paid splendid tribute to the fair
ness and Impartiality of the presiding
officer during tho two Sessions.
President West was, almost over
come with emotion when he arose to
reply. He said that words failed to ex
press his deep appreciation of this tea
tlmonial of the affectionate regard of
the senate, and that ho would ever keep
the cup os a souvenir of a happy pe
rlod In his life.
He gave high praise to the ability of
Senntor Candler, and of the body as <
whole. The loving cup Is a very hand
some one of solid silver with buckhorn
handles. It Is inscribed ns follows:
"W. S. West, President «»f the Sen
ate of Georgia, f$oin the members of
the Session of 1905-6.**
Had Fun at the Wind-Up.
After clearing the desk of all local
bills, and railroading the cigarette bill
to lnocuous desuetude, everybody pro
ceeded to have a good time. Notice
was sent over to the house that the
hour for adjournment had arrived, but
the house retorted that the senate was
mistaken as to the hour, and Instead of
being midnight It was redly only
10; 55.
Senator Bunn rose to a question of
personal privilege, and then called on
Senator Furr for an explanation as to
why he had not Joined the order of
benedicts. The senator referred to de
clined to be Involved in so delicate a
dlscusslbn, which led some to Insinuate
that he has early designs of clearing
himself of Senator Bunn’s charge.
Joe Hill Hall came over to see how
Affairs were getting on and was called
on for somo retrtarks. He made thorn
by taking a shot at the senate for fail
ure to pass the first bill passed by tho
house, tho state auditor measure of tho
gentleman from Bibb.
In the wind-up resolutions wero
passed thanking senate officials for
fklthful and efficient service, and tho
press representatives for fair and Im
partial reports of the proceedings.
Officially at 12 o’clock, unofficially at
12:45, tho senate died, and after good
byes had been said most of those re
maining went over to the house to see
the curtain fall.

The average gross earnings per mile
