At itiho same time tt ti appa rent that the 0x191 providing for appoint ment by the governor Is equilly objec tionable, and .will, in oil probability, •meet with the sumo fate a* the bill dloposed of today. The house 1a clearly ot the opinion that, wiltHo there are aerious objection* to all three of the moOhodu proposed lbr choosing the Judtdary, election by Oho •legislature Is ithe least Objeutlonable. Mr. JUouelton'a bill (wane up us the ope- olai order Uhls morning tnametllately af ter title Journal was rend, and the dis cussion over It occupied the whole Bos nian. ■-Mir.

Mr. Jen kins reviewed the history of tlio Judi ciary In Georgia, nnd stated lt as a Met that a'4 tho evidence off tlnto and practlco wns in favor of election by the legislature. Tho JuHlolury so elected liavo been puro anil able, nnd be rc- clared Uiait dho people should not bo mkdod by tlio clamor of defeated can didates nnd the effort* ot politician* to gain popularity. Mr. Jenkins said the purity of tho bench would bo an Impossibility If the Judiciary should be dragged down Into the mlro of politics. There nro a large number of citizens of this state, lie said, who are not competent to help select men to ndmlnlittffr justice. They nre not only Ignorant, but lacking In principle, nnd this power placed In their hands would bo a serious tempta tion to tho unscrupulous and ambitious politicians. •Mr. Pierce of Lumpkin mndo tho closing speech In favor of the bill. Speaker pro Tem. Wilson then took the floor, and struck right nnd left at the bill. It would be n'sad day for Georgia, bo declared, when the eelec- Itlon of her Judiciary should lie placed In tho hands of politicians, wkero eo Ignorant nnd Inflnmablo class hold* the balance of power. Ho said rile conditions now nro far different from what they -were In 1852-'60, when the people elected their Judges. Tbe demand for a change, ho said, comes from the disappointed candi dates, and wns a pot 'theme of tk.o demagogues of the Populist party. At the conclusion of Mr. Wilson’s speech Mr. Hodges of Bibb called tho previous question. He was requested to withdraw the call, bull refused, nnd it was voted down. MR. HALL’S SPEECH. Mr. Hewlett Hall off Coweta, law partner off Governor Atkinson, then se cured tho floor and proceeded'with tile delivery of an eloquent appeal for tho purity of tbe Judiciary. He said lt |s not to be denied that there Is general dlssotlMtjjction with tho manner In which Judges and solicitors are now chosen, and, too, be believed there Is ground for tbe complaint of tfio peo ple.
