THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS. VOLUME 2, NUMBER 230. LEGISLATORS ARE NOW FLOODING THE CAPITAL SON WILL BEGINTOMORROW A Number of Important Bills Are to Come Up. ONLY AFEW LOCAL ONES Several Will be Introduced But None of Them are of Very Much Im portance.—Some of the Other Bills to Come Up. The general assembly of the state will convene tomorrow. It will be the first time since IS9I that it is in ses sion during the summer months. The calendar is full of bills to he disposed of, several of them being of an important nature. Glynn’s senator and representative will be on hand at the opening and will put in some good work during the session. Among the local bills that will come up will- be the bill to amend the char ter of the city court of of Brunswick, so as to make the clerk of the super ior court ex-officio clerk of the su perior court. Another bill is: u, be introduced to better protect our game and llsb, and there are a num ber of others, none of which, however, are of very much importance. Garnishment Bill. A bill that is bieng urged by the Re tail Grocers, association of this city, as well as by the state body of the same organization, is a graduated gar nishment law on all classes of wage earners, The present law, it is claim ed, is a species of class legislation affecting certain classes of workers, wlhile others who, in some instances make much' more are not touched. An example of the classes tnat can be garnished are conductors of railway trains, while the engineers, who make very much more, but who are sup posed to receive taeir pay daily, are not subject to the operations of the present law. z The law which the grocers seek t< have passed is graduated as follow-. Oil wages of S2O per month 15 per cent to be subject to garnishment; s3e per month 20 per cent.; SSO 'per month 25 per cent.; $75 per month 40 pc cent.; and on stoo or over 50 pc. centAt the present time the entire wage is subject to garuisment ol' ah persons not classed as day laborer . The grocers claim tiiat llie law mar they fl.k to have enacted is much more lair and gives the wage-earun a chance to get .rid ct his obligation* in an sy and equitable manner. 11 bor organisations are opposeu to ill ana declare tiiat it wuuiu bi leans of causing great hard ship to thousands ot working people who are prompt in meeting tneir on ’igations and who would be oppresseu by the hard-hearted wiio might have them in their grasp. Three Days’ Grace. The abolition of ilie three days oi grace now in vogue in the payment o* notes is urged oy tile banks of the state, who declare that there is no Beceds'ity tor it. Accordance wain tueir wishes, a bill has been prepared and introduced repealing lue pre-eiu law on the subject. The Child Labor Bill. Tile cuiild iabor bill, introduced by Mr. Houston, the labor member from Fulton, will come up for discussisou and later will be placed on its passage. The bill will be fought very liaru by the mill men, but the recent passage of simdiar bills in adjoining and sev eral other southern states has greatly increased the coutiJence of the cham pions of Uie measure, who declare that it will become a law. Uniform Text Books. The bill of Mr. West of Lownes pro viding for uniform text books, will boa hot bone of contention during the term. Mr. West is a tighter and on I his measure he proposes to do his best. He has many warm advo cates of the Hill to assist him. while the other side of question is equally .well represented. In the past years the opponents ot the bill have been able to encompass its defeat, though heretofore they have had the assistance of the state school com missioner. This lime the commission er is on the oilier side of the game and will do all in his power to secure the passage of the bill upon which he, to a large degree, made the issue in bis- campaign last year. Mali’s Anti-Pass Bill . It is regarded as probable that the anti-free pass bill of Hon. Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb, will come up again and that the fight will be warm. Mr. Hall has been pressing this bill very strong ly for the past four years. It has been qlefeated each time it came up. FOR PUBLIC’S GOOD. Socilogical Society Will Meet in Sa vannah Today.
