IN THE HOUSE. ,
THE MEMBERS WILL STILL GET
FOUR DOLLARS.
Mr. Norman Keeps His Seat in the •
House—The Capitol Grounds to be
Improved and Beautified.
The storm is on in tbR house.
The dull monotony of routine work
has been broken, and the debates are I
shaking up matters at a lively rate.
Three live discussions were stirred up \
I
yesteiday in the bouse. The first in im
portance was over the Hill bill, which ;
proposes to change the constitution so
that:
The salary of the members of the gen
eial assembly shall uot exceed over $l6O,
and mileage shall not exceed 10 cents
for each mile traveled, by the nearest
practicable route, in going ’o and re
turning from the capitol; but the presi
dent and the speaker of the house of i
representatives thall each receive not
exceeding S2BO.
Mr. Hill made a strong speech for the
claims of his bill. He spoke quite at
length on its merits.
When Mr. Humphreys, of Brooks, of-;
fere.d an amendment in jest making the j
amendment apply to the representatives
of Meiiwether, Mr. Hill folded the joke
away and put it out of sight with his
ready and withering rebuke.
Mr. Hardeman, of Wilkes, said it was
not a bill to be laughed out of the house.
He said ic was certainly on the right
line, but the amount was too small. He
suggested S4OO as the proper salary.
Mr. Hartridge, of Chatham, thought
it was a r< flection on the members of j
the general assembly as well ai an in
sult to the people of Georgia.
Mr. Twir.ty, of Jackson —There is net
a state in this whole union that calls for
more legislation than Georgia. Our
tcruiß ax 6 iicccßbur uv
Mr. Fleming, cf Richmond, didn’t be
lieve in buncombe talk. It was intend
ed for home consumption. He said if
the members of the house were not
worth $4 per day, they ought to go
home, and let others who were worth it
take their seats. He’d rather support
the Snelson bill a hundred times.
Mr. Perry, of Worth, and Mr. Huni
phieys, of Brooks, spoke strongly
against it.
On the vote the b li fell through.
THE CAPITOL GROUNDS.
' Mr. Martin’s bill appropriating SIB,OOO
for beautifying th« capitol grounds was
taken up by tee house.
Os course it passed.
The speech made by Mr. Martin in
favor of the bill was such as easily pre
dicted its passage, for his arguments, so
strongly put. were undeniable. He
showed too plainly for contradiction
that the unsightly grounds surrounding
the beautiful new capitol was the state’s
shame, and that the matter was a cry
ing necessity. The expense necessary
for putting the grounds in becoming
shape had been estimated and he appeal
ed to the pride of Georgia most eloquent
ly to direct the appropriation.
The bill passed almost without oppo
sition, aud such a course is predicted for
it in the senate.
HE KEEPS HIS SEAT.
Mr. Norman, of Liberty.
He is to keep bis seat in the house.
The committee on privileges and elec
tions has so decreed, and its decision
was ratified by an overw helming vote in
the house.
Crawford, the negro representative
from Mclntosh, caused some amuse
ment by effering to amend the report by
inserting the name of James, the negro,
instead of Norman, the white man.
The committee’s report was agreed to
almost without opposition.
THE WESTERN A ATLANTIC AGAIN.
Mr, Jackson, of Heard, introduced a
resolution in the house which is liberal
in its provisions relevant to the settle
ment between the state and the lessees
of the State road.
The resolution provides that inquiry
shall be made into the matter of who
should pay the taxes claimed by the les
sees against the state, and has a tenden
cy to have the matter adjusted by arbi
tration.
ROUTINE WORK.
New bills:
Johmon, of Appling—Abill to requiia
all railroad companies in this state to
furnish equal accommodations on their
trains for white and black passengers,
and to require them to ride in separate
cars, and provide a penalty for refusing
the same.
Johnson, of Appling—A bill to amend
the legistration act for Appling
Bush, of Miller—A resolution prevent
ing new matter to be tiled after Decem
ber sth, in view of an early adjourn
ment.
Tb.e resolution was adopted. 1
Mr. Boifeuillet, of Bibb—A resolution
to relieve the British America Assurance
Company from penalty of forfeiture in
paying taxes. Passed.
Mr. Fleming, of Richmond, moved to
have the senate and bouse bills prohibit
ing the running <f excursion trains on
Sunday recommitted to the committee
on railroads.
Bills on third reading :
By Norman, of Liberty—To change
the jurisdiction of county courts and
confer authority on justice courts. Lost.
Gilbert, of Muscogee—A bill changing
the constitution so as to have bills read
by title only. Recommitted.
Whitfield, of Bald win—A resolution to
instruct Governor Northen to have the
attorney general to look after lands be
longing to the state, in Tennessee, upon
which the State road runs.
The resolution passed and was trans
mitted to the senate.
An invitation from the president of
the trustees of tbe Confederate Home to
visit that institution Wednesday after
noon was read.
The house then adjourned.
IN THE SENATE.
Motion to reconsider tbe bill passed
Monday in reference to running excur
sion trains on Sunday was los*.
Senator Buck Candler, of th* fortieth,
introduced an important bill. Its object
is to consolidate the state and county
elections, having all held together on
the first Wednesday in October, all the
county officers to be elected for a term
of two years. The first election for
county officers, under this law, will be
in ’92,
Senator Ellington introduced a gen
eral bill to allow counties to supplement
their quota of the state school fund with
an equal amount to be raised by special
tax. The oroinary is to apportion the
fund so raised amongst the militia dis
tricts of the c->untj, the bill contem
platinsr tbe establishment of a school in
each militia district.
The general object of the bill—author
izing the counties each to supplement its
share of the common school fund by
k cal taxation —can h ird’y find any con
siderable opposition in this legislature
<i in the state. It is what the Consti
tution has urged repeatedly as the next *
step to be taken in educational progress.
ANOTHER COMMON SCRpOI. BILL.
Senator Irvine, of the forti -second,
iutrndaced another very impor an*, bili,
to reuse and consolidate the common
s.-hool laws of the sute. The distinctive
featun s are:
1. The chancellor of the State univer
sity is made a member of the state board,
because tie is prisumed to bo well ac
quainted s'iili the condition of educa
tion in the sta*e, and as the. State uni
versity must be recruited from the c >m
mon schools as the fiist step toward an
e location, the chancellor would natur
ally favor the improvement of public
scl'ools.
2 A secretary takes the place of coun
ty school commissioner, and his duties
as secretary are purely clerical.
3 The county board is made elective,
and the qualifications of the members of
tbe board are tbe same as grand jurors,
thus giving the best men in the county.
4 There is a distinct trustee in each
militia d s rich, the trustee of any dis
trict and member of the board from any
district is the same pere >n, ...u l th i
chief management and control of the
schools in any district is committed to
the district trustee.
5. Bach militia district is made a
school district, and the trustee of such
district must sub-divide the districts in
to sub districts', accenting to the con
venience of the school population.
6. A board of examiners, composed of
three competent persons, either male or
female, prepares questions, conducts
examinations and grants county diplo
mas. Diplomas of two grades, first
grade for four years, second grade lor
two years.
County school fund is received and
disbursed by the county treasurer
8. A School year commences Nov. 15.
School term to be six months, and to be
divided into two sessions to suit conven
ience of r eighborhoi ds.
Teachers to receive salaries according
to grade of diplomi, and probable aver
age attendance ou school, and to be paid
monthly.
9. All school officers to be paid for
their st rvices.
10. State school fund same as present
but to be disbursed from state treasury
to county treasuries on first days of Jan
uary and July.
The general drift of the bill is toward
local control. The chief control is com
mitted to the most competent man in
the district, what will suit his people,
and who will arrange foi tbe conven
ience of the mighOerhood. This cen
tre! is so guaided that all the children
shall have a time to attend school, that
incompetent teachers will not be em
ployed, and that there be no extrava
gance in expenditure oi the school fund.
