iEORGIA LEGISLATURE
be Second Fifty-Day Session
Begins It’s Labors.
HOB HOBTHEirs MESSAGE.
> Touche* on Matter* or Itatleaal In.
Tariff Law of Pro-
t toetlao and the State Bank
26.—The second fifty-
the present legislature of
begun, and a remarkably
of members were present
when the garebof the
officers fell, and the two bodies
called to order.
Little time was lost in getting down
• work, and the indications are that the
salon will be one of push and energy
[nil the way through.
The message of the governor was the
and most important subject of con
sideration.
Upon matters national, his utterances
will be read with more than usual inter
est; in that, it has been but a short time
since he indited a letter to the president,
which drew forth the memorable reply
so widely copied and commented upon.
About Notional Affair*.
After referring to the great financial
stress through which the state, as well
as the whole nation, has passed, he says:
“If such money panics can occur when
our harvests are abundant, and no legiti
mate causes are easily apparent, it be
hooves the representatives of the people
to inquire into the conditions that make
them possible. Under such conditions
there must be in our midst some power,
somewhere, able to analyze and destroy
at will the common interest and the
common good. Such dangerous in
fluence, if it exists,should not only be in
quired into and removed, but it should
be absolutely destroyed. No conditions
of class can justify the growth of a
power within the government gi eater
than the people who make the govern
ment.
“Without reference to the matters
which have, as yet, claimed the atten
tion of our national congress in extraor
dinary session as being beyond the pale
of state authority, I deem it proper to
say to you that, in my candid judgment,
the most, if not all the ills that affect
the country today, come to ns, directly
or indirectly, from the dangerous and
pernicious policy of the general govern
ment known as protection. The time
has come in the history of our people
when this policy must be rebuked, as
contrary to the spirit of free government,
and not authorized by the organic law
that made the American system.
“It is
AFTER THE CHINESE.
Consular Certificates Are Not Conclusive
Washington, Oct. 26.—In reply to a
complaint of the Chinese minister in
Washington, Mr. Yang Yu, the state de
partment has made representations that
indicate the United States will not ac
cept consular certificates as conclusive
evidence that the Chinese subjects pre
senting them are merchants or artists,
and therefore entitled to admission to
this comftry. Recently in New York, at
the instance of Chinese Inspector Scharf,
two Chinese who presented certificates
from the consul at Havana that they
were acton and not amenable to the re
striction imposed on laborers under the
law, were refused a landing.
Inspector Scharf insisted: that the men
were laborers, and their certificates
fraudulent. The detained Chinese took
the matter into court, where* it is still
pending under writs of habeas corpus,
and further made complaint to the min
ister, who brought the matter to the at
tention of the state department.
Secretary Gresham called on Secretary
Carlisle for information, and received a
__ _ T that the inspector,
opinion of the treasury authorities, was
acting in the line of his duty and
seemed not to have exceeded his author
ity in the premises.
Secretary Gresham accordingly has
transmitted this information to the
Chinese minister. The treasury depart
ment's stand on the question is tftill
farther emphasized by Attorney General
Olney, who has directed the United
States district attorney at New York to
prosecute the cases on which the Chinese
minister's protests are based. Mr. Ol
ney gave this direction at the request oi
Secretary Carlisle.
REDUCTION WILL STAND.
A Conference of Engineers and Conductor:*
of the East Tennessee Railroad.
Knoxville, Oct. 26.—The grievance
committee, representing engineers and
conductors on the East Tennessee rail
road, has been In session discussing Re
ceiver Fink’s ultimatum in regard to the
10 per cent reduction in wages. Fink
had told them that the reduction would
stand.
The impression is that the committee
will accept the reduction, although noth
ing will be done nntil the arrival of
Grand Chief Arthur, of the B. L. E.;
Grand Chief Clark, of the O. R. C.;
Grand Chief Sargent, of the B. L. F.,
and Grand Chief Wilkinson, of the
Brakeman’s order. These high officials
will probably arrive Friday, and after
consultation with the committemen will
confer with the receiver regarding the
reduction.
i gratifying to know that the po
litical party now in power stands com-
'o repeal its resultant, nncousti-
tax which destroys the equality
among citizens and builds a sys-
■ntrulized government.
“TEs fcUt- ttank Tax. '
“Not content with denying the rights
of the individual in • trade, the general
; government lias advanced to the further
I denial of the rights of the states in their
use of money as established before the
( adoption of the constitution of the
United States and fully recognized,
authorized and guaranteed in our funda
mental law of our system.
“It is equally gratifying to know that
I the present federal congress is pledged
* to repeal this protected monopoly of
money also, and restore to the states the
opportunity for growth and development
commensurate with their resources and
their unrestrained energy and will.
“I recommend,' therefore, in anticipa-
| tion of such action by congress as is
' guaranteed by the Democratic platform
t such legislation as will charter state
j banks of issue, hpon such safe eondi-
* tions, without federal interference or
f control, as will secure their credit be
yond question, and furnish to the bill
holder absolute and perfect. protection,
f In regard to matters of state, the gov
ernor urges the necessity of the. estab
lishment of a reformatory prison for-
juveniles; a revision of the laws author
izing county chaingangs, so as to eliiilf-.
nate the evils growing out of the hiring
out of the&o convicts to parties who are
trader no restraint of law, aqdwhpmay,
and in some instances do abuse the pris
oners while they have no-.right of re
dress. He says: .
“These convicts should receive from
the state the same: superintendence as is
given to the convicts hired to the lessees
of our penitentiary. In iny judgmmi.
the general assembly 'cannot afford to
delay longer the consideration due pris
oners confined in our county* chain*
A revision of the penal code ‘is earn
estly recommended in order that pun
ishment commensurate with the crimes
committed may be more justly provide 1.
Another important change advocate*! is
that the law now providing for the pay
ment of the public school teachers be
changed, and that they shall revive
( their pay quarterly, instead of annually,
as is now the law. The governor was
very thorougn and explicit in reviewing
every department of the state’s interests
and the paper is pronounced an able and
ation ot
