With only one vote dissenting, that i of Representative Hall, of Bibb, the j Western and Atlautie committee of the house Mouday night recommended the j PAAssago of thodepot hill. Thotriumph ot the measure as amended was com i I'lete, while the ameudmoui a involving material changes in the original hill met with the approval of all members of the committee who were present except the member from Bibb, whose opposition was us determined as ever. With the triumphant und final in dorsement of the committee the depot bill goes back to - the house to await the action of that body. What that action will be cannot be foretold, but the thorough indorsement of the com mittee induces the belief that it will be favorable by a good majority. As adopted the depot, bill calls for an appropriation of $350,000 to be derived from, the public property fund as first contemplated. The reduction to $350,000 was expressly made in or der that the school teachers of Georgia might not snfVer by reason of the con struction of the station, but might re ceive their salaries as usual. It is pro vided that the lessee road and the city of Atlanta, both of whom are to profit with the state from the building of the new depot, shall bear the burden of any damages growing out of possi ble injury to adjoining property. This means that every cent of the $350,000; together with what is received from the sale of the old depot is to go into the new one. * * Will Draw More Honey. Some of tire small towns are build ing up their school systems at the ex pense of the common school fund. Not a few bills have been introduced this session to establish systems of public schools iu this class of towns and to amend the systems already es tablished. For instance, the public school sys tem of Boswell lias been amended so that the town should draw its public : fund direct from the state school com missioner instead of from the county i school commissioner of Cobb. A bill was also passed a day or two ago establishing such a system in Lum ber City, in Telfair county, and it Mas provided that the fund should be drawn direct from the state school commissioner. It was found upon investigation that there Mas a very good reason fer these changes. The county school commis sioners pay only according to the ac tual attendance upon the schools, while the state school commissioner disburses the fund according to the school population. It is said that in the case of Lumber City alone the public schools there will receive twice as much under the present bill as they did heretofore by drawing the fund from the county school commissioner. This ratio will obtain in all other school districts incorport ted by special net of the' legislature, and they are therefore enabled to greatly improve their systems. x * * * Stafford Will Hold Scat. Hon. E. .1. Stafford of Camden will hold In's scat in the legislature, the committee on privileges and elections reporting unanimously in his favor. Mr. Stafford’s scat was contested by a negro, A. Wilson. He did not ap pear before the committee, but filed papers of contest, which the committee reported were not in conformity M-ith the law and they therefore recommend ed that the sitting member was entitled to retain his seat. By a vote of 102 to 0 the house adopted the committee’s resolution providing for Mr. Stafford’s retention of his seat. * * ♦ To Abolish Trading Stamps. Mr. Smith, of Gwinnett, has intro duced a biil in the senate making it a misdemeanor to sell trading stamps in Georgia. Many small buyers in Atlanta are circulating a petition asking the legis lature that this bill be killed. Many of the ladies are signing the petition, the trading stamp being very popular among the fair sex. Bequests, however, have come from twenty counties iu the state to mem bers asking that this hili be passed and urging tha no time be lost. It is backed by the leading merchants in Atlanta, nnd also over the state. The following stater, have laws pro hibiting the use of trading stamps: Arkansas. Louisiana, Maryland, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New .Jersey, Rhode I*land*Tennessee, Virginia. Ver mont, California anil New York. For State Health Hoard. In the house Mr. Symons. of Glynn, La? introduced a bill providing for the creation of a Mate board of health. Under the provisions of the bill the hoard is to be composed of nine rnern- Wrs, four of whom are to be selected ltv the Georgia Medical society from membership, and the governor ahail appoint the remaining tire, one of whom shall be n sanitary engineer. They are to serve two years and are to take coguizance of the health in terests of the state, make sauitary in vestigations from time to time, and in quire particularly into epidemics. The board will be officered by a president and secretary and treasurer, the latter to receive a salary not to ex ceed SI,OOO per annum; the other members to receive no pay. The bill provides for auxiliary hoards in each county, to be selected by the board of county commissi ♦suers, these to consist of five registered physicians resident iu the county, the mayor of the county town, the chairman of the board of county commissioners and the city surveyor, when there is snob an officer, otherwise t lie county surveyor. One of these, a physician, shall serve as superintendent of health. It will be his duty to report promptly to the state board the uuusual prevalence of disease in his county. Monthly returns in vital statistics to the state board are provided for. Inland quarantine is placed under the control of the county superintendent and he has the power to abate nui sances. Bulletins of the outbreak of dis eases dangerous to the public health shall be issued by the state h#>ard whenever necessary and such ad vie ’ freely disseminated to prevent and check the invasion of disease into any part of the state. * * * Question of Local Option. Many of the counties in Georgia that went dry by special legislative enact ment will appeal to the legislature for the opportunity to vote ou the prohi bition question. As it is. they are prohibition in spite ot themselves, in some special elec tions were provided wherein the sale of whisky was voted down. No pro vision was made for auother eleetio* in case of a change of sentiment. This is the condition of Bartow comity, says Senator Baker, who rep resents that district in the state sen ate. He has introduced a hill provid ing for an election. Many other counties are in a similar predicament. Among these are Polk aud Gwinnett. Those counties are denied the right of local option, and they want the privilege of saying whether whisky shall be sold within their borders or not. Counties that arc dry by special en actment can’t, vote under the local option law, which they think is a bur den and a hardship, hence the move to amend the law as contemplated in the measure of Senator Baker.
