Hr. MeFnrland's Salary Siloing
Measures Killeil h> Committee.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 13.—1n the House this
morning the bill by Mr. McDonough of
Chatham prohibiting the operation of pool
rooms in this state was favorably re|>on
ed by the general judiciary committee.
There has so far been no organised opjio
eltion to the bill developed and the chances
are that it will become a law unless the
light is to be made in the tt. natc.
Mr. McDonough's hill repealing the law
■which prohibits a Citizen of Chatham
county from holding two offices at the
same time was favorably reported by the
special Judiciary committee. This bill is
understood to be* in the interest of Capt.
John R. Dillon of Savannah, formerly clerk
to the Hoard of County Commissioners
and tax receiver. If it passes, he will get
his old jobs back again.
Biennial sessions of the general assem
bly was a leading theme in the House
to-day. Two bills providing for this change
were introduced, one by Mr. Rose of Cam
den and the other by Mr. Griffin of Greene.
The holding of but one fifty-day session
and the legislature in two years would save
the state in the neighborhood of $75,000.
When the economizers come to figure on
this it may be that they will turn in and
aupport one of those bills.
Operating upon the same line of econom
ical thought, Mr. Dark of Greene, intro
duced a bill cutting ten days off the an
nual sessions, making them forty-days in
stead of fifty as at present. With the elec
tion of judges and solicitors taken out of
(ts hands the legislature, it seems, could
very easily get through its labors In forty
working days. Mr. Park, who is easily
one of the leaders on the floor of the
House, thinks that a shortening of the an
nual session will be the compromise ap
proached with those who favor biennial
sessions.
Mr. Blalock of Fayette, came to the
front to-day with another crack at the oil
Inspectors, whose salaries the committee
•ried to cut in half last session. He now
proposes to create the office of state su
pervisor of oil inspection whose duly it
shall be to go about over the state and see
that things are conducted according to
•■Hoyle." The salary to be paid to this
new functionary is, $1,200 a year and ex
penses to come out of the oil fees.
Mr. Park of Greene introduced a bill
to reduce the fees of tax collectors from
making out their insolvent lists, and Mr.
Moore of Carroil offered a bill to pay Jus
tices of the peace three cents a name for
making out the list of persons liable to
tax. which they are now required to make
to the tax receiver. That is, they are re
quired to make these lists, but they never
do K, because they are not paid for the
work. Mr. Moore thinks that if they were
paid and gave their time to the work, the
result would lie a considerable increase on
the digests.
The bills of Mr. McFarland, introduced
yesterday, providing for a general reduc
tion in the salaries of state officials, were
all reported adversely In the House this
morning. Thus the hills meet with a
speedy execution, as the action of the
committee is virtually the death knell.
‘ The ways and means committee reported
favorably upon the bill to repeal the act,
making permanent the Income of the slate
university and adversely on the bill of Mr.
Smith of Hall, which gave constables the
right to levy fl. fas. from Superior and
City Courts where the amount was less
than SIOO.
Mr. Hall of Bibb to-day introduced an
other hatch of bills amending the laws in
regard to the conduct of suits against
railroad companies, while Mr. Ellis of Bibb
offered a bill providing for bonded ware
houses.
Mr. Rawls of Effingham has introduced
♦wo bills, which are of a good deal of
Importance throughout the state, and es
pecially in Savannah. One requires that
the polls at precincts be opened and clos
ed at the same time as those at the
court houses In all state elections. This
change, Mr. Rawls says, will give people
living in the outskirts and going to the
city every day for business an opportun
ity to vote before going. The other bill
provides for the compensation of county
officers in criminal cases where there is no
money from fine forfeitures of the coun
ty treasury, the claims to he approved by
the judge of the court and the county offi
cers.
Mr. Davis, in the Senate, this morning,
withdrew his bill repealing the law making
women eligible to the office of stale librar
ian. A petition signed by 2.000 women
was presented to the commission against
♦he bill, and it was unfavorably rei>ortod.
Mr. Davis is stiii heartily in favor of the
repeal of this law, however, and has not
entirely abandoned the fight.
The Senate had its first debate this
morning on the House resolution, provid
ing for a Joint committee to visit the
Georgit Normal arid Industrial College for
the purpose of ascertaining the needs of
that institution. Mr. Wight amended
that the committees to visit the state col
lages should go at commencement, as the
legislature already knew the needs of
these Institutions, and it would be use
less to send committees there now to be
Cajoled by the faculties into recommend
ing appropriations that could not be af
forded. After the discussion this amend
ment was finally adopted, ami the com
mittees will go In vacation and report at
the next session after the regular appro
priations have been made, unless the
House refuses to accede to the Senate
amendment.
Mr. Redding introduced a bill providing
for the election of the Judges and solicitors
of county courts, who are now appointed
by the Governor, with confirmation by the
S< nate. by the people.
The bill by Mr. Underwood exempting
purchase money notes given for land from
taxation was killed on an adverse com
mittee report.

STICKY SENT CP FOR LIFE.
He Is a White Man Who Killed n
Negro 'ii Laurens.
Dublin, Ga., Nov. 15.—The jury trying
Andrew Stueky, white, brought in a ver
dict of guilty last night nt 9 o'clock and
iixod the penalty at life imprisonment. On
being sentenced Stueky told Judge Cand
ler that he would rather be hung, when
the judge replied, saying the jury would
have been Justifiable under the evidence
in fixing the dea-th penalty.
Stueky killed a negro man about three
years ago and has been out under bond
until this term of court. His case will be
appealed. This breaks the record in Lau
rens county, for it has heretofore been
almost impossible to convict a white man
who killed a negro.

MRS. FELTON AS TO MANLY
NilE BRINGS HER FAMOUS SPEECH
IP TO THE PRESENT TIME.
Crime and Lynelilngs Have Decreas
ed 50 Per Cent. Since She Made Her
Speech at Tybre—Corruption In
Politics Will Eventually Bring
About the Hestrnetlon of the Negro
I(aee—Honorable Colored Men anil
Women Approve the Unwritten
Law.
Cariersviilg, Ga., Nov. 15.—Mrs. W. H.
Felton, whose speech brought forth Ed
itor Manly’s reply in his Wilmington pa
per, resulting eventually in the negro ed
itor's enforced departure from the North
Carolina eity, is at her home, the Felton
farm, near Cariersville.
Concerning statements that Manly’s ed
itorial was written In reply to her address
before the Georgia Agricultural Society at
Tybee, nearly two years ago, Mrs. Felton
to-day repeated portions of the speecli
and made some sensational statements in
confirmation of her views.
In addressing the farmers at Tybee, Mrs.
Felton said: "The crying need of women
on farms is security in their lives and
homes.
“It is a disgrace In a free country when
rape and violence are public reproach, and
the best port of God’s creation are trem
bling and afraid to be left alone In their
homes. '■
"With due respect to your politics, I say
when you take the negro into your em
braces on election day to control his vote,
and used liquor to befuddle his under
standing and make him believe he is your
man and brother, when you honey-smuggle
him at the polls and make him familiar
with dirty tricks in politics, so long will
lynching prevail because the cause will
grow and increase with every election,
and when there is not enough religion in
the pulpit to organize a crusade against
this sin nor justice in the court house to
promptly punish the crime, nor manhood
enough in the nation to put a sheltering
arm about innocence and virtue, if it
requires lynching to protect woman's dear
est possessions from ravening, drunken
human beasts, then I say lynch a thousand
a week if it is necessary.”
"Since that address was made the crime
and lynching* have decreased 56 per cent,
in Georgia," said Mrs. Felton, coming to
the present time.
"The condition in North Carolina is the
manifest result of corruption in politics
and undue familiarity with negroes at the
polls.
“It is the unwritten law in Georgia that
the black fiend who destroys a white wo
man in her home or on the highway, and
is identified with proof positive, must die
without clergy, Judge or jury. I know
that thousands of the honorable colored
men and women in Georgia will approve
the verdict. The race will be destroyed
by the whites in self-defense unless law
and order prevail In regard to the crime
of rape and. t>e lynching that follows.
I placed the blame where it should be
tn my Tybee address. Such jMilitics will
ruin the prosperity of the South and de
stroy the colored race at last.
“When the negro Manly attributed the
crime of rape to lewd intimacy between
negro men and the white woman of the
South, the slanderer should lie made to
fear a lyncher's rope, rather than occupy
a place in New York newspapers.

MONDAY WIGHT’S CONFERENCE
M AGNIFIEO INTI) A SENSATION.
Some Officials Think They Were
Slighted by Not Being Invited to
the Conference, and Have Drawn
Their Linen to Fight the Govern
or's Reform Ideas —Ex-Gov. Atkin
son Declines to Discos* the Affair.
An Ex-OlOclgl Defends Gov. Can
dler's Position.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 15.—Last night confer
ence at the executive mansion was the sub
ject of a good deai of gossip at the capi
tal to-day.
Gov. Candter, in discussing It with the
Morning News correspondent said that the
statement tliat he intends to send in a
message to the legislature recommending
a reduction of the pension and school ap
propriations was not authorized by what
he had said in his talk.
While the Governor believes that the re
duction of these appropriations is the only
way to meet the fiscal bills of the state
without increasing tax burdens of the
people, he says that there was nothing in
what he said at the mansion conference
that would justify the inference even that
he will make a specific recommendation to
that effect to the legislature.
"1 might add though,” he said, "that if
the legislature should pass bills making
such reductions I would approve them.”
In some quarters the conference was
magnified into a sensation. Gov. Atkinson's
friends and political supporters were the
first to imagine a rat in the meal tub when
the gossips learned that two other ex-Gov
ernors had been invited to participate in
the discussion of ways and means to save
the state from the rocks of financial ship
wreck. This element wanted to know if this
failure to ask the Coweta statesman was
not an intentional slight to him and his
administration. Then the swing of the gos
sips pointed out the fact that neither At
torney General Terrell or State School
Commissioner Glenn, nor Pension Commis
sioner Johnson, nor Prison Commissioner
Turner, all of whom are the allies of ex-
Gov. Atkinson, had been called in for con
sultation, though ail of them ought to be
in possession of information of value to
the captain of the waterlogged ship of
state.*!!
It is but an accurate representation of
the situation to say that all the officials
and their political sympathizers felt as if
Ihey had been wontingly slighted by the
new administration and feeling thus bit
ter they did not hesitate to take their
places on the side of the opposition to
Gov. Candler's reform ideas. In some in
stances the prejudices of legislators were
appealed to lo disseminate the seed of op
position and jeopardize: the contemplated
reforms in state expenditures by tighten
ing factional lines.
Ex-Gov. Atkinson was here during the
day, but he positively refused to express
himself upon the subject of the alleged
slight to him further than to say that it
was purely a personal matter with Gov.i
Candler as to whom he wished to consult
upon any line of policy.
An ex-state official who was not at the
conference last night, in speaking of it
this afternoon, said: “Gov. Candier did the
right thing exactly In not asking his pre
decessor to a place at his council board.
It was Gov. Atkinson and his administra
tion that got the state into its present
troubles, and he could hardly have given
any counsel that would have been valua
ble. Gov. Atkinson went out of office leav
ing the state in a financial hole; Gov.
Candler has the task of pulling the state
out of this hole. So I say that he only
gave another illustration of his good sense
in leaving his predecessor out of the list
when he called his counsel together. Hav
ing permitted the state to get into this
mess through lack of business foresight,
combined with fear of political conse
quences, how couid Gov. Atkinson have
rendered any service to his successor in
the work of reform?”
