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.

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. KILLEDB yTtRIAIN .
