UDRAItlf BUILDING,
carriage* 82.7K.
Atlanta, July 12.—(Special.)—Attorney
General Terrell today submitted his
opinion on the law providing for the
quarterly payment of school teachers
by the state. In accordance with a re
quest made by State Treasurer Harde
man for his construction of that section
of the netv law relating to the borrow
ing and repayment of the $300,000 neces
sary to meet the first quarterly pay
ments last April.
The point raised was that the mqney
belonging to the school fund now In the
treasury should be applied to the re
payment of the $300,000 borrowed in
April Instead of paying it out <to the
teachers for the second quarter of the
year, ending June 30. If the money
bad -to go to pay hack the loan there
would be nothing to pay the teachers,
and in fact they would not get any
more money before January, 1895. Then
tho whole Intention of the quarterly
payment law would be defeated.
Attorney General Terrell takes a lib
eral view of the law. Intending to np-
piv it4n^ spirit, so long as it does not
conflict with any other interests of the
state. He holds that it is discretionary
with the state treasurer whether the
school money now on hand—which is
about $150,000. shill go toward the pay
ment of the $300,000 loan of last April,
or whether it should be apportioned out
among the teachers on their salaries
due for the quarter ending June 30. The
treasurer is to be guided in his action
by the condition of the treasury and
Che demanJs of the state.
When the attorney general's opinion
was placed in Treasurei Hardeman’s
hands he promptly announced that the
condition of the treasury is such as to
warrant the extension of the $300,000
loan made to the school fund last April
out of other funds on hand, until the
taxes cbme in next fall. This leaves
the aohool money now in the treasury
at the disposal of School Commissioner
Bradwell. who will at once proceed to
apportion It out to the teachers, giving
each a pro rata of the amount due, the
sum on hand not being sufficient to
pay all salaries in full. The cbnunts-
sioner has already ludlted the accounts
and will begin paying off at once. The
teachers expeoted their money July 1
and have been In suspense since that
date. , *
After this payment, however, the
teachers will not get) much more money
before January, 1895. The quarterly
payment law, tt seems, does not ttt the
situation. Treasurer Hardeman’s llg-
ures show that when the next quarter
day comes around there will be about
JSJ.O'iO in I ho tiv.iMiry available fur tin-
payment of teachers. This is due to tho
foot, he. claims, that the April loan of
$300,000 was not made Just as the law
provided. It should ha^e been made
so as to be bn hand now instead of hav
ing beten applied to meet the first quar
ter’s payments, but the apportioning
board overruled Wm. and the conse
quence is that the quarterly payment
law, which the school teachers hailed as
a gojl3end, is only partially effective.
HE WANTS THE HATS.
A Journal Reporter Determined to
•Make Livingston Give Up the Hats.
•Atlanta, July 12.—(Special.)—Con
gressman Ltvlngston, who was in At
lanta today, received a call at -the
Markham house from Mr. Joe Johnson,
the reporter on the Evening Journal,
who .took him up on his now famous
"hat story” In his opera house speech
on the Fourth of July. Livingston in
that speech said he would give two
hats to the Journal man who had
nerve enough to get up and say he
hadn’t found ten Livingston men to
one Candler man in canvassing the
city for interviews. Johnson accepted
the banter, but up to date Livingston
has -never delivered the hats. Today
Johnson, who Is a young man of very
determined disposition, as well as pos
sessing a keen sense off Justice, called
upon the congressman and made a
formal demand for the hats he claims
he Is entitled to at the government’s
expense. The colonel tried to laugh
the affair off, but Johnson (would not
take R that way, and now declares
that he will havi the hats if he has to
go to law for them. He may attach
•the colonel's grip 'Monday night, when
he comes back to Allanta to speak
with Col. Candler.
The “hat” Incident of the campaign
han resulted In the formation of a
“Candler Hat Club” -<f young men, who
will wear -hats alike on election day
and put In work for their candidate
at the polls.

An Increase of Population—Political
and Personal Notes.
Moultrie. July 12.—(Special.)—Twelve
months ago .the site on which Moultrie
now stands was but little more than
a corn field. Now this Is * flourishing
little town of 800 or 1,000 souls. While
other and larger towns are on the
retrograde '.Moultrie seems to have
chosen the hard times for A building
boom.

his profession of law.
The Moultrie 'brass band was or
ganized last evening, Mr. J. F. Monk
being chosen leader. They have a nice
set of Instruments and are now cast
ing about for a teacher.
A large amount of long staple, or
sea Island cotton, is being raised In this

long stale cotton pays much (better
than the short.

A JOINT DEBATE.
Candler nnd Livingston Had a Tussle
In Monroo Last Tuesday,
Monroe, July 14.—(Special.)—The first
Joint debate between Congressman L.
F. Livingston and Milton A. Candler
took place here this afternoon. On Mon
day Mr. Charlie Johnson of the Atlanta
Journal came here and arranged for
Mr. Candler to address the people of
Walton today, but some of Livingston's
friends telegraphed him, so without de
lay he telegraphed back that he would
be here to look otter his Interests and
would meet Mr. Candler in detute. This
was qui te a surprise tt> tho Journal man,
but ho had got caught in his own trap,
so he hud to stick. This has always
been, the banner Livingston county of
the Fifth district and will go for him
again by a good majority, but the voto
will be small in the primary. Both can
didates struck square from tho shout
der and the principal, part of both
speeches was devoted to the past rec
ords of each other. The only difference
between them tbit In any way affect*
the people Is their position on the silver
question, Candler holding und support
ing tho views of President Cleveland,
while Livingston comes out square and
bold for tho tree and unlimited coinage
of sliver on the ratio of 16 to I, which
Mr. Candler declares Is not Democratic,
but Populistic. Candler happened to the
good luck of partially throwing Living
ston on the defensive, which was some
thing never before done. Livingston
has heretofore been able to run over his
opponents roughshod. Tomorrow by this
time the matter will bo Bettled sn far
as Watson Is concerned, ns our primary
comes off then. A on:ill voto will bo
polled, hut Livingston will, carry the
county.
