Bill.
BIBB MAN SAYS POOR
NIOOERS ARE PERSECUTED
Live Session of House Monday.
Hall Says Police Are Paid So
Much a Head for Negroes.
Outside of the sensational Flatulent
Incident In the houae Monday morning,
and the attack of Joe Hill Hall on the
county court officials of the atate, there
**« little done at the morning aeaalon
of the lower branch of the general aa-
eentbly. Argument on' Blackburn's
county patrol bill was begun but un
Inlahed.
The houae met at It) o'clock, with
thr uaual prayer, roll call and reading
•f the Journal.
Mr. Covington, of Colquitt, aa vice
chairman of the committee on temper-
anc*. reported favorably a bill by Mr.
Dui ker, of Clarke, to abolish the dis
pensary at Athena.
'in a Joint resolution by Meaara. An-
dt t on and Htovall, of Chatham, Thurs
day evening. July 12, was set aa the
time for the general assembly to be
addressed by Hon. Walter G. Charl-
tnn. of ftavannah.
The house resolved Itself Into a com-
mlitee ,.f the whole to consider the bill
by Mr. Blackburn, of Fulton, to estab
lish county patrols 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,
nested quite a laugh when read before
the house. It was as follows: .
"Amend by adding, that each of sold
pa 11 nis be provided with four galling
suns and alx blood hounda."
Mr. Blackburn, of Fulton, and Mr.
Porter, of Floyd, spoke In favor of tha
bill.
•Mr. Knight, of Berrien, oppoaed the
bill In a apeech.
Joe Hill Hall Takes Floor.
Mr. Hall, of Bibb, oppoaed the bill
on the ground that It contained much
mischief. He roundly scored county
I court offlclala for prosecuting poor
•niggers'' for shooting ''craps" for a
peony. Strong hlnta at grans among
" unity court offlclala wera made by
wholesale by Mr. Hall. He continued:
'• 'Twould make an Irrasponilble
county police. The nlggera who are
pulled up fn eourta are not the mean
ti nvrling nlggera. They ain't got nuth-
ln'. The criminal lawa are enforced
to make money for court offlclala. I
believe that theae court offlclala ahould
he put on a salary. I have long op
posed this, but the abuse of the pres
ent system has led me to this view. I
am oppoaed to discrimination In en
forcing laws.
"I understand In some counties pollpe
• re paid so much a head for the nlggar
gsiuM-rs they bring In.
“1 understand In the supreme court
the other day that here In Fulton coun
ty out here at Armour’s plant, aoma
niggers wars In a houae talking one
Saturday night, when a hobo nlggar
ramc in and started a game. He loft
and the county police appeared and the
nlageis were arrested and while they
wet, bring brought to town the nobo,
w ho had come back, eacaped hnd theaa
nlggera wera lined 150 and ITS when
trie,:.
Political Bailiffs.
"This blit provides for the constables
to bs sort of eg-nfflelo captains, doesn't
It? My Ood! The worat thing In the
world Is a political bailiff. (Laugh-
' ter. i
"This bill gives a lot of Irresponsible
fellows authority to ralss hell In tha
country. (Laughter, i
"Y ui paaa this bill and in twenty
' foui hours every officer In the county
i, ouria would have a contract with
thr-o patrols."
Mr. Hall was asked several questions
In regard to Macon.
”1 live In Macon, but I am not re,
sponsible for It."
• Have all the nlggera left Macon?"
asked Mr. Anderson, of Chatham.
"All the good 'une, but we have police
orfl, ers who are responsible and would
not Ilka this patrol, running out tha
niggers.
"You pass thla bill and aa aoon aa
all tha niggers are run away these
patrols will atari on the poor white
( ■Iks and "Run, nigger, run. or the pat-
r 'I'll catch you' will be sung In Georgia
ng.iln. The patrola will have theaa poor
.'oil,- running all over tbe fields.''
Mr. Longley, of Troup, differed from
Mr. Hall. He said In part:
"My Mend from Bibb la a prophet of
evil. He la In favor of protecting the
rural districts, he says, but oppoaed to
grand Juries appointing, whet he says,
would be Irresponsible parties, who
would drlva the nlggera away. '
"I believe the grand Juries of tha
■lain are mads up from tha beet men
In tho atate, ana they do conaclon-
i: us work. I would have Introduced
Juat such a bill aa thla had not my
friend from Fulton done so. I trust
this committee will report this bill fa
vorably to the house."
Mr. Mann to the Defense.
Mr. Mann, of Catoosa, answered Mr.
Hall, whose argumenta he said, smack
ed too much of crap shooting niggers.
He defended the grand Juries from the
attack made by the gentleman from
H.bb. He said:
"This bill did not originate with the
g, ntltroan from Bibb, It Is trua but
g.'od can come from other sources.
"The gentleman from Bibb damns
tiie constables. I don't believe these
constables are ell dishonest."
Mr. Felder, of Bibb, differed from
Mr. Hall, whom ha answtred In a
Itrong apeech for Mr. Blackburn's bill.
The burden of his argument was that
the bill would tend to put down crime
in the country, and force all "nlggera"
to go to work.
At 12:40 o'clock tbe committee of the
whole reported progress to the bouse
.gad asked leave to ffit again.
l ien came tha sensational Flanders
Incident and adjournment.
