The pure food bit. Introduced as a

Wright, of Floyd, in the house Mon-
day morning, "na argued throughout
the session and set as the first order
of business for 3 o’clock In -the after,
noon, a special afternoon session be.
Ing voted.
The opposition of joe Hill Hall, of
Bibb; Aiken, of Bartown, and a few
others, who objected to the wording of
the measure, and who delayed action
until the hour for adjourning, prevent
ed the passage of the measure at the
morning session. The house was clear
ly In sympathy with the general ub-
Jocts of tho bill, but objected to the
details of tho bill offered.
The bill provides for the prevention
of the adulteration, misbranding and
Imitation of food for man or beasts, nf
beverages, candles and condiments, ,,f
medicines, drugs und liquors, or their
manufacture and sale In the state of
Georgia. It prescribes penalties for the
violations. It provides for the Inspec
tion and analysis of these various arti
cles by the state department of agri
culture. It makes it necessary fot the
commissioner pf agriculture' when an
article has been reprted to him by the
state chemist' aa being adulterated tu
certify the fact of adulteration to the
district attorney of the United States
In' case the article comes under the
Interstate law, or under the Jurisdiction
of the United States. The national
pure food law hns already made It the
duty of the United States district at
torneys when they receive such notlfl.
cation to proaecute the offenders in the
United States courts, but If the article
adulterated comes under the Jurisdic
tion of the state laws then the state so
licitors are required to prosecute all
offenders under the law In the court
of the states. The law also goes Into
detail In regard to the manner In
which samples of food and feed stuff
are to bo taken.
Speaker Slaton called the houae to
order at 10 o'clock.
A second substitute "pure food” bill

Opposition to Bill.
Mr. Wright spoke to the bill, urging
Its passage. He was willing to correct
all defects In wording which might be
suggested. He was anxious to perfect
the measure. The bill met with the
approval of the fitata chemist, who hsd
consulted for the past month Dr. Wiley,
of Washington He explained some de
tails of the bill as follows:
An Inspector to be paid $1,600 a year
la provided. Three officials are Includ
ed. their term of office to be limited.
The sum of* $10,000 or as much as
necessary Is appropriated. In states
where similar bills have been enacted It
had been found that the Income from
fees would exceed this amount. It
would not cost the state a cent to put
the measure Ip operation. The bin
provides for the prevention of adulter
ation of stock food, as well as foods
and drugs Intended for human_ con
sumption. Labels bearing misleading
names nnd other deception are forbid
den. aUa.
Mr. Wright called attention to the
recent exposures of Impure meat in
Atlanta.
Mr. Hairs Opposition.
Mr. Hall, of Bibb, opposed the meas-
sure, saying It was crudely drawn
slavishly copied from the act of con
gress, and containing sections not np-
plleable to a state law. He moved ths
committee recommend the bill be ta
bled. There was no second and ths
motion was withdrawn.' Mr. AWn*
of Bartow, spoke against the bill s*
drawn and called attention to error*
In details. He wished to amend tne
section providing for an appropriation
by providing that the inspectors ana
officers be paid out »»f fees and lines.
Time was extended after 1:10 o’cloc*
to permit a vote to be taken on the diii
as amended. The members began
leaving the house, and fearing that a
quorum would not be present, Mr.
Wright moved to adjourn until I
o'clock, which was carried.
The force of the collision stove In the
bow of the Binghamton and smasnea

body from his seat, careened to P°rt

and children screamed and s*v*™2
