Basse gave the following as his reasons for desiring a Constitu tional Convention: 1st To Mttle forever the bond question. 2d To prohibit lending the credit of the Btate to railroads or other corporations. In 1870, the mabia of lending the Btate credit reached its climax, when Btate aid wm granted to thirty-two railroads to the amount of over twenty-eight millions of dollars. 3d To restrain the municipal and other public corporations of Georgia in tbe abuse of their credit. The great eity of Savannah, the pride and boMt of Georgia, is totter ing under a bonded .debt of tour millions of dollars. By taxing a population of on ly 20,000, she is compelled to raise $250,- 000 merely to pay the interest on this debt, and to raise M much more for cur rent expenses—nMtly $20 for every man, woman and child in the oity. Augusta is laboring under a bonded debt of two mil lions of dollars. Oar other oitiee, Maoon, ColumbuB, Borne, and indeed all of them, exoept Atlanta, whioh seems to be a little more fortunate in this raspect, are carrying a grievous load of debt. 4th. To pnt the homMteed law upon a respec table .and proper basis. The amount should be reduced, and the homestead rendered more permanent 5th. To pro hibit, or at leMt restrain, the mam of local legislation, which, in the shape of bills for ohanging oonnty lines, obanging tbe times of holding courts, the everlMt- ing liquor laws, eto., consume over half the time of every Legislature. 8th.
