THE WAYCROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28. 1893. I hotUGS \ 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 Short Line to The World’s Fair.
