Periy’s Bill Regarding Railroad
Taxes Voted 1>owd.
Atlanta, Not. 4—By the decisive
vote of G9 to 41 the house today voted
down the bill by Perry of Gwinnette, to
provide a state board of tax assessors to
tax railroads.
Perry of Gwinnetce, Kali of Bibb
and Wright of Fioyd spoke at length m
favor of the measure, claiming that the
railroads were not paying one-sixth the
taxes they should.
Steed of Tayior, Everett of Stowart,
Tumlin of Carroll and Slaton of Fulton
opposed the measure. Everett cf Stew
art asserted that the people, merchants,
bankers ana farmers were not paying
proportionately any more taxes to tke
state than the railroads.
Mr. Kali of Bibb introduced three bills,
two for new bend issues to retire what
is known as the McDonald bonds, and
the “convention bonds,’’ and one to
prevent the grant of franks by corpora
tions to public officials.
The senate after some discussion
passed the bill of Senator Hamrick, pro
hibiting the killing, trapping or taking
of any game birds or deer from the
lands of another without the permission
of the owner, or or the party in charge
of the lands.
Several new bills were passed, among
them that of Senator Chappeil author
izing county authorities to condemn
lands,for the purpose of obtaining road
material.

Passes Local DLpensary Measure For
Pulaski County.
Atlanta, Nov. 5.—By a vote of 89 to
23 the house passed the bill by Howard
of Dooly to disallow pensions to persons
owning §1,000 of property or having an
income or salary of §300 per annum,
either iu his own or wife’s name.
It also passed after some discussion, a
local dispensary measure for Pulaski
county. Pulaski is a ciry county and
some of the prohibition members fought
it for that reason.
A hot fight was precipitated over the
adverse report of the bill by Blue of
Marion requiring insurance companies
to pay the full face value of their poli
cies.
The senate passed up a local dispen
sary Dili for Cartersviile.
PENALTY MUST BE PAID.
Georgia Will Send a Mississippi Fugi
tive to the Gallows.
Jackson, Miss., Nov. 5.—Governor
Longino has issued a requisition on the
governor of Georgia for Will Lanier,
one of Mississippi’s most desperate
criminals, who was captured a few days
since at Newnau, Ga, by the town au
thorities.
Lanier was to have been hanged at
Aberdeen on April IS last, but he broke
jail three days before the day of execu
tion and made his escape. Together
with his father and brother, George and
Jim Lanier, the trio murdered the Bid
dle brothers in Monroe county about
two years ago. The murder was utterly
without provocation, as the evidence
showed. Will Lanier killed the younger
brother, a lad barely 14 years of age,
because he was crying over the death of
his brother, who had been shot from his
horse a few moments before.
After Lanier is returned to Mississippi
it will be necessary for the supreme
court to set a new date for the execu
tion. The case was affirmed by the
court at the last session. Governor
Longino has refused to interfere with
the verdict of the court or to commute
the sentence to life imprisonment.

trotters, pacers and rnnuers being on
the card. The Fitzgerald )£-mile track
will be put in good condition for the
speeamakers. The railroads will give
low rates during the week, and it is ex
pected that 10,000 strangers will be here.

One Hundred Bales Destroyed at
Jackson, Ga.
Jackson, Ga., Nov. 4.—About 100
bales of cotton on the Southern depot
platform here were destroyed and badly
damaged by fire yesterday. It is not
known how the fire caught, though it is
rumored two little negro boys were seen
to fire it. The depot was saved by citi
zens after all freight had been moved
out and much of it damaged. Had the
depot burned it would have beeu impos
sible to save the stores of R. W. Mays,
N. R. McCord aud J. A. Piunket and
the railroad warehouse.
The cotton burned for hours, though
several hundred bales were dragged off
the platform and hanied to piaces of
safety. ’The loss is not known, but is
estimated at over $5,000. There are no
waterworks here.
