Mr.. Fletcher resumed his remarks in opposition
70 the bill 10 charter the Jackson Loan Association
MI. BoWles opposed the passage OF the bill with
ardor, believing it gave men the privilege to loan
money at 40 per cent.
Mr Head offered an amendment giving any FIVE
or more persons who may file their intention in any
county IN this State OF establishing similar inst-
tGuou, the right TO 30 SO.
Dir. Rodger, opposed the bin upon purely con-
sutuuonai grounds. He hoped, however, If other
Senators could vote for it, they would also vote tor
ogc oi his constituents if it should be brought for
ward.
Mr. Stokes consider the amendment strange az
coming from an opponent of the bill. If the pro
posed Association was the monster pictured bv its
opponents, lac they ought wish it confined TO the
town OF Jackson, and not have il spread broadcast
over the State. ie asked the Senator from Sum
ner if he would support she bill if his amendment
should be adopted.
Mr. Head, in answer said he would not support
thc bill but II the benefits of these Associations are
great their advocates say they ARE he thought
thcy should be Wiling to extend them to the people
Of the whole State.
DIR WhitjAorne said, amendments we're some.
times offered in good faith, and sometimes they
were not, aud entertaining thc views he did as 20
the question before the Senate, he should vote TO
relieve the bill Of the amendment although he
would readily vote to give the provisions Of this
5i TO every county ia the State, if the senator
from Sumner would bring such ia bill before the
Senate.
M Steele spoke in advocacy Of the bill Until the
