Legislative Melange
Bills Passed In Senate.
Among the billi passed by the sen
ate the past week were two by Mr.
Smiley. One of them was to allow
discharged lunatics, in case of their
becoming violent, to be returned to
the asylum on the certificate of the at
tending physician and without anew
jury triai. The other bill was to allow
the county courts jurisdiction over
trover cases, and the distribution of
fines and forfeitures instead of requir
ing the supreme court judge of the cir
cuit to distribute them.
By Senators Henderson and Harrell
a bill in regard to the removal of suits
which have been non-suited because of
non-payment of costs.
When the house bill, providing that
in all districts having a town of 500
inhabitants the polls shall be opened
on election days at 7 a. m. and closed
at 6 p. m. came up, opposition devel
oped and there was debate. The bill
was killed, but notice of reconsidera
tion was given.

To Check County Officials.
Senator Grautland, of the Twenty
sixth district, introduced a bill iu the
senate Saturday which requires ordi
naries and county commissioners to
furnish to the comptroller general al
phabetic lists of the names of insol
vent taxpayers and a record of their
place of residence, as well as the
amount of the fi. fas. against them.
At present only the amounts are re
turnable to the comptroller. The ob
ject of Mr. Grautland’s bill is to pre
vent officials from defrauding the
state. In his county the tax collector
and the county commissioners had
been apparently in collusion and
thousands of dollars had been im
properly appropriated in the form of
costs, he said.
The collector had failed to collect
taxes due in order to make the parties
pay costs. He had raised fi. fas. and
entered upon them "nulla bona”
against some of the best men in the
county, some of them worth as muck
as $50,000. These fi. fas. were sub
mitted to the county commissioners
and by them a return of the amounts
was made to the comptroller.
The tax collector bad been forced to
pay back $4,000 to the county, but the
state got nothiug, aud the information
furnished the comptroller was so in
sufficient that there was no way of lo
cating the partes returned as insol
vent.

Senate Reconsiders Rebuke.
Shortly after President Howell had
called the seuate to order Saturday a
message from the house was received
stating that tho house had passed the
general appropriation act and sub
mitting it to the senate.
Senator Ellis then moved to recon
sider the action of the senate on his
resolution calling the attention of the
house to the fact that the senate
awaited the bill and would not con
sider any other matters Until it had
been received. Senator Ellis stated
that as the resolution had had the de
sired effect that he thought it would
be best t reconsider it and lay it on
the table. The senate passed the mo
tion to reconsider and the resolution
was laid on the table for future use if
it should be necessary. Later on in
tho session the appropriation act was
read in the senate and referred to the
senate committee on appropriations.
Senator Grautland moved that a
hundred copies be printed at once and
distributed among the members of the
senate. The motion was carried.
During the morning session an in
teresting resolution came from the
house for the concurrence of the sen
ate. It was a resolution to pay John
Vaughn for work in the state peniten
tiary after he had been pardoned, but
not liberated. The resolution was
passed, thereby ending one of the most
interesting cases that ever arose in the
entire country.
During the morning tho senate pass
ed the house bill repealing the dog law
and that famous statute that never
went into effect is now no more.
+ * +
Tax Rate Reduced.
The honse made haste slowly in its
consideration of the general tax act.
The ways and means committee sub
mitted a substitute bill, which was
considered by sections. The tax rate
for the maintenance of the state was
assessed at three mills and for the ap
propriation for the common schools
two mills.
The latter was amended by making
it two and one-tenth mills. This wijl
make the general state tax levy for tho
next two years 5.1 mills, or one-tenth
of a mill less than this year—the rate
for 1900 being 5 2 mills. In view of
the large appropriations this will
hardly be sufficient to meet the de
mands of the state government for the
next two years.
***
. Appointments Confirmed.
The senate in executive session has
confirmed these appointments by the
governor:
George S. Carswell to be solicitor of
the couuty court of Wilkinson county.
John S. Adams to be judge of the
city court of Dublin.
F. G. Carker, solicitor of tho same
court.
R. L. J. Smith, solicitor of the city
court of Jefferson. ,
A. M. Foute, judge of the city court
of Bartow.

Mill Owners Take Action.
Asa result of a bill presented in the
present session of the legislature to
prohibit children under twelve years
of age working in the cotton mills of
the state, the mill-owners of Georgia
have formed an association to stop the
practice. Since the organization of
the mill-owners, the advocates of the
bill have decided not to insist on its
passage.
BECKHAM INAUGURATED
As Chief Executive of Kentucky For m
Term of Three Years.
Governor Beckham was inaugurated
Tuesday at Frankfort, Ky., for a term
of three yeais. The inaugural cere
monies were the most elaborate wit
nessed in the state in the present de
cade. The inaugural parade was made
up of all of the military companies of
the state, clubs from Frankfort, Louis
ville aud other towns of the state, civic
societies and distinguished citizens in
carriages aud on horseback forming a
procession of great length.
Governor Beckham, iu his inaugural
address, did not refer to the murder
of William Goebel, but devoted him
self entirely to state matters. He
thanked the people for the honor con
ferred upon him by electing him gov
ernor for the remaining part of the
present term. He promised the state
a cleau and honest administration of
its executive affairs in a spirit of fair
ness and tolerance.
BEHIND PRISON BARS
•
Female Ex-Secretary of Postmaster of
New Orleans Languishes.
A New Orleans dispatch says: Mrs,
Tan Slingerland, recently secretary to
Postmaster Pitkiu and accused by him
of the larceny of a watch, certain pri
vate papers of the postmaster and the
manuscript of a novel, written jointly
by them, is still confined in the parish
prison, or the general jail, having
been unable to give bond or to pay
enough to secure private quarters.
She is dressed elegantly in silk, but
lives on equal terms with the toughest
females iu the prison and complains
bitterly of this. Mrs. Van Slingerland
declares tbat she is being persecuted
aud oppressed and has appealed to
friends in New York and Washington
to come to her relief, and, apparently,
not in vain, for she has received prof
fers of assistance.
VICTORY FOR SCHOOL.
Georgia Senate Committee Votes 840,000
to State Technological Institution.
The appropriation committee of the
Georgia state senate at a session Tues
day night acted favorably on that feat
ure of the appropriation bill which
gives 840,000 to the Georgia School of
Technology.
The action of the committee was
not taken, however, without a fight.
Senator Bush, of the eighth district,
was very much opposed to making
such a large appropriation and made a
motion* to cut the amount to $30,000.
On a vote, however. Senator Holder
was the ouly other member of the
committee voting with him.
