THE STATE LEGISLATURE.
Atlanta, August 29.
THE HOUSE
met at the usual hour, the Speaker in the
ohtir. The roll was osiled and the Jour
nal was read and approved.
Mr. Paine of Chatham, moved to re
consider the action of the House relative
to the bill allowiDg Jndgea of the Supe
rior and city oourts to fix the oosts of
Sheriffs and Clerks. The motion did
not prevail.
Tbe special order of the day was the
consideration of the railroad bill.
Mr. Westbroeka of Dougherty, moved
to postpone tht bill tlii Wednesday.
Mr. Cox did not move for a postpone
ment, but thought the House might wait
on Mr. Hsll of Spalding.
Mr. Tnrner of Brooks, thought that
the bill oonli lie over until to-morrow.
Mr. Westbrooks changed his motion,
at the request of Mr. Bxnkin of Gordon,
to Monday next instead of Wednesday.
Tne motion was lost.
Mr. Awtre of Troap, moved to sus
pend the rules, and a bill read to prescribe
a penalty tor tho burning of gin houses.
Agreed to, and the bill read and referred
to the Finance Committee.
Mr. Rodwine, of Hall, moved to take
from tbe table a bill to inooiporate the
town of Belton. The bill passed.
THE trrCIAL ORDER.
The railroad bill was then taken np.
The state of business, as annonnoed by
the chair, was as follows: All the
amendments to the first section had been
either withdrawn or voted down, and Mr.
Cox had moved to strike oat the ‘entire
section.
At this point, therefore, the debate was
resumed, Mr. Cox on the floor. Mr. Cor
thought the section unconstitutional, and
spoke on this line for some time.
Mr. Miloer, of Bartow, also spoke on
the bill.
Mr. Harris, of Bibb, addressed tbo
Honse also.
Mr. Fort, of Sumter, also spoke on the
question.
Mr. Mynatt thought tne section was
Constitutions!, and that so far as the
Constitution went, tbe Legislature should
restrict the reads, but only bo far we may
regulate way freights, bat the through
freights are entirely out of our control.
We should not suffer the railroads to op
press the people, and we Bhonld not, on
the other hand, oppress the railroads.
The use of the commissioners are to en«
force the law; no law is of any tffeot
without some man to enforoe it.. And
the commissioners of freights and rates,
are forts and protection of the people.
The system is subject to criticism, bat
everything is subject to criticism. If the
ten commandments were embodied in a
printed bill before this House, there
would be criticisms offered on them. The
section creating commissioners ought to
be adopted.
Mr. Hulsey spoke on the bills also.
Mr. Ridon, of Forsyth called for the
previous question on the motion of Mr.
Cox, of Troup, to strike out the first
section of the substitute proposed by the
committee.
The call was sustained, and on mo
tion of Mr. Cox the yeas and nays were
ordered, and the vote stood 60 to 66.
So the motion to strike oat prevailed.
Mr. Smith, of Oglethorpe, asked that
a stenographic reporter be allowed to
the committee to Investigate the Agticnl-
tnral Bureau. Agreed to.
PARLIAMENTARY SKIRMISHING.
Mr. Westbrooks. of Dougherty, moved
to adjourn till to-morrow morning at
nine o’clock.
Mr- Fort o tiled for a division, and then
f :r the yeas and nays on this question of
adjournment.
Mr. Fort also called the previone ques
tion on the balaaoe ot tbe substitute.
The Speaker stated that the motion
was ont of order under tbe rules of tho
Honse.
The call for the yeas and says on ad
journment was sustained and the vote
stood npon summing up, yeas 67 nays
53, so tbe motion prevailed and the
House adjourned till nine to morrow,
Mr. Fame of Chatham, of tbe Enroll
ment Committee, has been very busily
employed for the entire session. Every
bill introdnoed into the House and Sen
ate must pass tbrongh bis bands before
its disposition is reported to the Honse.
Something between eight and nine hun
dred bills bava been before tbe General
Assembly daring the present session and
that of last year:
The debate to-day on the Railroad bill,
on the molion of Mr, Cor to strike
oat the first section of the committee’s
substitute, involves but one question—
that of the creation of a board of rail
road commissioners to supervise and
regulate the freight and passenger
charges of every road in the State.
The disposition of the question de.
prives the substitute of any enforcing
value whatever, and makes the provis
ions of the bill merely general in their
operations.
The Iriendsof the meaeura are not al
together favorable to the substitute, pre-
fering either the bill fff.-red by Mr.
Bankln, or that by Mr. Fort, of Sumter.
The debate will bo probably resumed
to-morrow.
No eessiou on tbe part of the Senate
to-day. Caeolynn.
