county court officials of the atate, there
»*■ little done at the morning aeaalon
of the lower branch of the general |
aembly. Argument on Blackburn'a
county patrol bill waa begun but un
flnlahed.
The houae met at 10 o'clock, with
the uaual prayer, roll call and reading
of i he journal.
Sir. Covington, of Colquitt, aa vice
chairman of the committee on temper-
an ", reported favorably a bill by Mr.
Itinker, of Clarke, to abollah the dis
pensary at Athene.
On a joint revolution by Meaara. An-
d«' ■ on and Stovall, of Chatham, Thurs
day evening, July 1C, waa set aa the
tlni* for the general aeeembly to be
addressed by lion. Walter G. Charl
ton. of Savannah.
The houae resolved Itself Into a com
mittee of the whole to consider the bill
b> Mr. Blackburn, of Fulton, to eatab-
llrh county patrol* by the county grand
juries. Mr. Nolan, of Henry, took the
chair.
Pokes Fun at Bill.
An amendment to the Blackburn bill,
Introduced by Mr. Rainey, of Schley,
created quite a laugh tvhen read before
the house. It was as follows:
• "Amend by adding, that each of said
patrola be provided with four galling
guns and alx blood hounds."
Mr, Blackburn, of Fulton, and Mr.
I’.irter, of Floyd, spoke In favor of the
bill
Mr. Knight, of Berrien, opposed the
bill In a speech.
Joe Hill Hall Takta Floor.
Mr. Hall, of Bibb, opposed the bill
on the ground that It contained much
mischief. He roundly scored county
< "urt offlclala for prosecuting poof
"niggers" for shooting "crepa" for a
penny. Strong hints at grafts among
county court offlclala were made by
wholesale by Mr. Hall. Ue eontlnued:
"'Twould make an Irresponsible
county police. The nlggera who are
pulled up In courts are not the mean
tleveling nlggera. They ain't got nuth-
I n'. The criminal laws are enforced
to make money for court offlclala. I
betters that these court offlclala should
t>e put on a salary. 1 have long op-
f'sed this, but the abuse of the pres
ent eystem has led me to this view. 1
am opposed to discrimination In en
forcing laws.
"1 understand In some counties police
out paid so much a head for the nigger
gamblers they bring In.
‘T understand In the supreme court
iho other day that here In Fulton coun
tv out here at Armour's plant, some
niggers were In a house talking one
Saturday night, when a hobo nigger
came In and started a game. He left
and the county police appeared and the
niggers were arrested and while they
wire being brought to town the hobo,
w ho had come back, escaped and these
niggers were lined $90 and $79 when
tried.
- Political Bailiffs.
"This bill provides for the constables
to be sort of ex-offlelo captains, doesn't
It? My Clod! The worst thing In tho
world la a political bailiff. (I-augh
ter.l
"This bill gives a lot of Irresponsible
fellows authority to raise hell In the
country. (Laughter.)
' "You pass this bill and In twenty
four hours every officer In the county
courts would have a contract with
these ratrolo."
Mr. Hall was asked several questions
In regard to Macon.
"I live In Macon, but 1 am not re-
sponsible for It."
"Have all tho nlggera left Macon?"
asked Mr. Anderson, of Chatham.
"All the good 'uns, but we have police
officers who are responsible and would
like this patrol, running uut the
ggera.
"You pass tills bill and as soon as
, the niggers are run sway these
patrols will start on the poor white
folks and 'Run. nigger, run, or the pat-
i ol'll catch you' will be sung In Oeorgla
again. The patrols will have these poor
folk- running nil over the flelde."
.Mr. Longley, of Troup, differed from
kf:> Hall, fie said In part:
“My friend from Bibb Is a prophet of
evil. He le In favor of protecting the
rural districts, he says, but opposed to
gran t juries appointing, what he says,
would be Irresponsible parties, who
w ould drive the nlggera away,
"1 believe the grand Juries of the
slate arc made up from the best men
In the elate, and they do con«-**n-
II oils work. I would have lnt» uced
just such a bill us this, had not my
friend froth Fulton dohe so. 1 trust
this committee will report this bill fa-
toinbly to the house."
Mr. Menn to the Defenee.
Mr. Mann, of Catoosa, answered Mr.
Hall, whose arguments, he said, smack
ed too much of crap shooting niggers.
He defended the grand Juries from the
attack'made by the gentleman from
lilbb. He said:
"This bill did not originate wXh the
gentleman from Bibb, It Is true, but
g i el can come from other sources.
"The gentleman from Hlbb damns
the constables. I don't believe these
constables are all dishonest."
Mr. Felder, of Bibb, differed from
