Special to Bnooasaa.
Atlanta, Deo. (23.—This has
been, pre-eminently, a "working
legislature.”
It Is further a notable fact that
not a single "set speeoh” has been
made this sesalon. in either the
Home or the Senate. The lawyers
and the yonng and old men elo
quent have been relegated to the
rear.
Quiet, honest, hard work has
been the order of the day.
The flgnres are really surprising.
Three hundred and twenty-three
(823) bills and resolutions were
sed, and have been signed by
the Governor, or are now on hts
desk awaiting that official act.
The only legislature that ever ac
complished anything like this
amount of work waa the last one.
They passed 166 bills and 16 resolu
tions at the winter session, or only
a little more than half the num
ber passed this yesr.
REGRET HIS GOING.

arris & Payne,
Dr. J. P. MoFerrln goes to Mul
berry street chnrch, In Macon.

decided
Dr. J. B. Johnstone ie appointed
to the first ehnrch here.
Yesterday, expressions of regret
were heard on all sides of the re
moval of Dr. MoFerrln, who has
so ably filled tbe position here.
He has endeared himself to all the
people, and by his masterly ser-
has proven himself a man of
ability. His loss wUl be deeply
felt, and the people already feel It.
He will leave for Maoon in a few
days and will probably preach
there tiunday next.
Dr. J. B. Johnstone, who will now
take the first chnrch here, comes
from BarnesvUle, going to that
place from Dalton. He la a young
man, not over thirty, but has made
great reputation aa a preacher
and pastor. Those who have heard
him are loud In their praise, aad he
oomee with the highest ofreoom
mendatlons. No minister of his
age Is better thought of, both aa re
gards his ability and Christianity,
and white eorrowful at toeing one
who has made himself dear to hts
flock, we are to be congratulated In
getting such a man as hla sueceseor.

indications are they will forma

And for a week tbe people have
been oompeUed to do without
them.
It has been bard on those whose
home# an at tome distance from
the basin tea portion of the city,
and all have suffered more or lew
lnoonvenlenoe.
But now this edict has been re
voked, and to-morrow the people
can ride. The ears will be put on
bright and early In the morning,
and tbe Christmas crowd of folks’
will have the benefit of them. And
above all other tlmee now la when
the ear* are most needed, and
when their lots would be greatest.
Bigger crowd* on tbe street, and
more who want to ride.
Everybody is glad that they will
b* pot book on, and hope they will
keep running. It Is probable, how-
’ever, that they wtU be taken off for
a week or two after the hoUdaya.
