THE MPE COUNT f TIMES
Tie N I A. FRIDAY SEP. 4
tlfcfUA LECtSLATIiFi.
tiSrdtn Convenes to Settle Con.
v et Cuestion.
Atisatft, Aug, Lousy pro
coed and with reitigrktfhlQ unanimity on
ltur. day to udvpt tay sections toe
Holder oonvicfc bi.i, and ty the time
adjournment was taken, a few rno
inents before 5 o’clock, eight cf th-*
fourteen secticnß of the bill had be-ui
approved.
The only serious ui 'agreement
came when eccticn 9 cf the bill was
reached. A spirited debate was th *u
frecipivated over the committee amend
ment which seeks to allow county of-
to collect their fees out. of the
county treasury in ca. es where crim
inals convicted by then are worked
cn the roads in that county,
The committee an tho Western and
Atlantic road Thursday decided to re
port favorably the resolution of Mr.
Alexander, of E-e Kalb, providing for
the creation cf a commission to inves
ligate the subject of extending the
state read to the &ea and the use of
the state’s convicts for that purpo. e.
The resolution, which was Introduc
ed on the first clay of®the extra ses
sion .provides for the creati n cf a com.
mission or, nine members, three to be
appointed by the speaker of the hou. e,
two by the president of the senate and
lour citizens to be named by the gov
ernor, who shall inquire into the feas
ibility of employing the state’s con*
Vlcts in extending the Western and
A.tlantic railroad to the sea and report
to the next general assembly, The
sum of $2,000 is appropriated under
tho resolution to pay the expenses ol
euch an investigation.
Atlanta, Aug. 29.- —The convict bill
of Representative Holder of Jackson,
which passed the house at the regu- •
lnr session cf the general a: semfcly, !
was again adopted in somewhat
amended form by that body on Friday
by a vote of 99 to £S,
The house began the consideration
Of the measure by sections on last
Thursday, the third day of the. extra
session. Before adjournment it had
adopted eight sections. Now the ad
ditional sections nave been compl t and.
The licu.,o finished its woik within
the time in which it could have acted.
This wa3 the only measure before
the body. From the opening day
the line-up was noticeable, but there :
vas never any doubt from the begin
ning of the e.uecess of the Tlclder
measure.
The Holder Frovicicno.
The Holder bill provides that upon
the expiration of the present lease •
cn Mcii. 31, 1909, the founda
tion cf a fund shall be begun which
will be used for working all the fel-'
ony and misdemeanor convicts of the
state on the public reads.
Counties and municipalities will
have the privilege of using them for
this purpose, beginning April 1, 1909
the remainder to be leased out to indi
viduals until Dec. 31, 1911. After the
latter date no convicts whatever shall
Le leased to private parties.
The measure now goes to the up
per hells'©.
Income Tax Feature of Convict Bill Is
' Killed.
Atlanta, Aug. 31. —The new convict
till introduced Friday in the senate
kni backed, apparently, by the sig
natures of twenty-three senators,
enough to pass It SLrcugn that body,
seems, in the vernacular cf the Geor
gia cracker, to abornin’.”
The “skiddo-o” bill, as some of its
signers have affectionately 'termed it,
because there were even twenty-three
of them ~ will scarcely reach the dig
nity cf a second reading.
The main opposition has grown out
of the income tax feature, against
which numerous protests began to
pour in as soon as it was learned that
this measure probably had some re
epectable following in the senate—
seemingly enough to pass it.
Tax Hit Everybody.
The income tax, as proposed in this
measure, would have hit every man
in Georgia, who earns anything, even,
it is said, the day laborer. It would
in effect, have opened the books of
merchants and business men to the
competitors. Naturally, they did not
want it, and some of the senators
.heard from their constituents against
it in no unmeaning terms before the
proposition was twenty-four hours old.
The result is the “23” bill is dead;
it was practically a corpse when dis
covered.
Bprden of Wcrk in Senate.
‘ Anew week started Monday in the
general assembly on the convict lease
question, and the passage of some bill
to improve the penitentiary system
of the state.. The burden of the work
will rest in the senate, while the house,
will quietly rest on its oars for de
velopments in the upper house.
The house of representatives has
practically finished all of its business
for the present.
in. the scxlcTs there is the Fallei
Official Groan of Dade County.

bill, the Boyd and Martin substitute,
the Brock substitute, the Born substi
tute, and the substitute offered by J
twenty-three senators on Friday.
The Holder bill is going to meet
with a great deal more antagonism;
there than it did in the lower house. !
Even then it cannot be put on its
passage before Wednesday, for the law j
is that it has to be read on three:
separate days cf the session belore i* (

Atlanta, Sept. 1. —After much spir
ited debate the house committee on
penitentiary and penitentiary matters,
Monday afternoon, by an‘overwhelm
ing vote, reported favorably the bill
by Mr. Wise, of Fayette, to levy a
tax. on the manufacture, distribution
and sale of near beer for the purpose
of raising revenue for the care of the'
convicts after the abolition - '.of the
lease system. -
It taxes the manufacturer of near
beer and the distributor of the same
SSOO annually and makes It a general
tax act . The firm, corporation or In
dividual who sells near beer is to pay
a tax of S2OO per annum.
If the house adopts the amendment
offered to the Perry substitute limiting
by constitutional amendment, the lease
system after Dec. 31, 1911, as propos
ed by Mr. Dunbar, of Richmond, tne
state may continue to gain some rev
enue from the working of its convicts,
for this amendment provides that the
constitutional amendment shall not
prevent the working of these convicts
on contract labor.
This amendment also provides that
the convicts so worked shall be in
the custody of the state, cared for by
the state, clothed, guarded and work
ed by the state on contracts to be
made for their hire. It simply pro
vides that their labor, but not their
bodies, shall be sold.
In the Senate.
The senate Monday consumed five ;
hours’ debate on the various convict,
bills originating in that body. There
were during this time only four speak
ers, the time being cl ided among Sen.
