The necessity for a riged registra-
ton law is doubtless apparent to
every member of the legislature. Ii
there be member, however, who
has any doubts on the subject, the
fact that more than two thousand
frandulentyotes werepoled at arecent
election in Atlanta, without single
case of punishment therefor ought to
satisfy him of the necessity for such
Legislation. There is pressing need
OF reform in this particular-Tele-
graph and Messenger.
While the Journal cannot agree
with the Macon Telegraph on the ques
ton Of Struck it does most heartily
endorse the necessity ola regiStra-
ton law. Surely, the legislature
will not fail to see the importance of
such action.

Monday looking to the creation OF
the Office of Lieutenant Governor in

the Senate, and who shall, in the
case of the death or disability of the
Chief Magistrate, become the Cover

the new officer merely nominal, aside
from the usual per diem of the pres

The above paragraph we get from

provided for the July reduction, but the
other House amended it SO as to make the

Georgia A. cgislature.

The most interesting feature
fore the legislature at this writ
nag is what is known as the Ray
Ill" Notwithstanding the far
ner agIees to take his fertilizers
BON The guaranteed analysis OF
hemist appointed by the state,
lac Bill proposes to allow him to
come in and plead a failure OF con-
Iteration. In other words, il the
Ray Bill becomes a law, any farm
a the land may refuse to pay
his guano and set up plea
that it was worthless $40 account.
Ne do not hesitate to say that if
this Bill becomes a law that 1t will
prove, in all probability, the most
fruitful source Of litigation ever
known to the state. 1t is not Just
wa think, however, to say that this
Bill is gotten up in the interest of
the lawyers, for we have talked
with some in our own town who
are opposed to its passage; but
Air Peek, Of Rockdale, mad no
le5itancy in charging before the
legislature that it was a measure
gotten up wholly in the interest Of
this class. He says: The farm
ers Of the legislature did not adj
vocate the bill. That it was cham
ploned by the lawyers That the
bill would damage the credit of
the farmer" In the further dis
cnssion of the bill, Mr.. Atkinson,
Of Meriweather, said;
The law at present affords ample pro-
lection to the farmer. He can plead want
Of consideration when the article purchas-
Cd is spurious. If the law is not good
enough now let us amend it. 1t would be
dangerous to pass such bill as that pro
POSED, subversive as tits Of every principle
of law. lie thought the present law did
not allow 50 many hardships as the gentle
man from Coweta conteaded. The farm
crs, as a class, do not need such a guard
anship as is proposed The bill if passed
would increase the risk in selling guano,
and shus raise. the price, injuring the very
class it is designed to help"
Mr.. Little, of Muscogee, said the bill
violated settled principle Of law. 1t was
intended as legislation for the benefit Of a
class. The surest and best plan is to legis-
late for no class but to do that which is
right. The proposed law has no parallel.
He would never favor law which allowed
man to go square back on his written
promise.
Hiram Warner said that if farmer
could read and didn't read, and yet signed
he was bound by the contract, though he
may have been a fool to sign Mr.. Little
sad thaJ even II Inc Uui paSsau, any Ia,s-
yer could frame note that would defeat
its purpose. During his speech Mr.. Lit
tie was asked various questions by Mcssrs.
Patton of Thomas, Redding Of Pike and
Spence of Mitchell Mr., Little concluded
with an appeal for the proper amendments
of the present law instead of tie establish
ment of such a dangerous precedent.
The bill failed to pass the house
lacking one vote Of a constitu-
tional majority. The vote stood
upon call OF the roll ayes 81 and
nays 81. 1t is thought, however,
that move will be made to recon
slider. In our Judgement the bill
ought not to pass. 1.-THE law reg
ulating the sale of fertilizers is
deficient, or oppressive to the far
mer, let it be amended.

DAMAGING TESTIMONY
La the .star Route Trial.

Washington, "a In the Star Route
case yesterday, Andrew w. Moore tes-
tilted. Moore tod Miner that the service
had been taken at very Low figures. and
that no Increase Of trips or !. Expedition -
could save them, if the Jaw T, curing pro-
portlonate increase OF stock and carriers
was complied with. 20 this Miner re-
piled: We are all good affidavit makers.
The Interpretation put upon this was
that the oath OF contractor was held by
Brady to be sufficient evidence Of the
amount OF stock, the number of earriera,
etc. No actual increase would be neces-
ssry 30 long ss they we're wiling to make
false sthdavlts. Moore came on to
Washington, and in laying the matter
before Senator Dorsey, told him that his
personal expenses we're heavy, and ar.
gued that they should come out of the
general fund, before the profits we're di-
vided. To this the senator replied that
there were other heavy items of expense
to come out OF the general fund before
the division. He said it cost money to
hold the influence with the DEPART. ent
which they then had, and the expense
ust come ont Of the general fund. An
agreement wa finally made upon Il 9
terms discussed by Minor and Moore in
Denver Dorsey agreeing to furnish
money to stock the roue In Nevada.
California, Oregon and Washington
Territory. Moore asked for SIC, 900, but
only obtained $1,000 vita which he
started for the west. In Oregon Moor @
made contract with John Mclean for
route No. 44,l60, Z ON Canyon City to
Fort McDermott. This was let fer one
trip week, the price being iess than
So, 900 year. Moore promised that the
service should be dali y one, and be ex-
peditsd until the pay reached $50, 900.
Mclean replied that it Was impo. si6ie,
as he could carry all the thrUu "a mSil III
hi. pc ket. Mclean agreed to cnculate
petitions, however. This Is subsIanti3 Ill,
what Moore swoTe te-1ay. As al lDcl-
dent going to prove that Stephen w
Dorsey was the head and front of this
ring Of contractors, Moore swore that in
the spring Of 1873 John w. DO, sey told
him that the senator had brought him t.
Washington On business that he knew
nothing about, and he wished himself
back home again.
The croas examination developed
nothing important.

The Inquest.

Milwaukee, 24.-Night CLERK Delaney
was examined this forenoon before the
inquest on the NswhslI House disaster.
The salient points of his testimony we're
that he thought the fire originated in the
bar room. The hose IN the halls had not
been used or examined for the last two
years. He could have called the guests
if he had not been engaged upon matters
which he considered more important than
alarming guests. He had twenty five
minutes between the discovery ot The
fire and the time before he knew the
hotel was doomed. He could have run
through every hall in the hotel and
alarmed every guest in that length Of
time, but he had to attend TO his Office
duties, saving papers and VAluables,
knowing the hotel safe was useless in
case OF fire.

Coal Mine Cave.

WilkesbArre, 24.-There was an ex-
tensive cave this morning 10 the Della

cracks are visible for acres in either di-
rection. A number of houses settled
from six inches to two feet. alarming the
inmates, who fed. The cave in has taken
place under the surface, No less than
twenty acres has gone down.
The entire extent Of the cave in st the
Delaware and Hudson Companies Mines
this afternoon appears to comprise nearly
forty acres, most of which is covered with
dwellings and other buildings. The
disaster is accounted for upon the theory
that the props put in the mines some
years ago to sustain the roof have rotted
away. General apprehension is felt that
this is only the beginning of more serious
trouble. Old and reliable miners Goa
tend that the accident is the result CT

The Canyon City News says numbers
of Indians, of various tribes, are scat

Grant county, and they are no doubt
responsible in a great measure for the
forest fires now raging in that vicinity.
Many people are also disposed to hold
them responsible for some of the horse
stealing that is going on. So much
crime has been committed there lately
that public sentiment runs very high on
the subject, and it would not be healthy
for anybody, Indians or white men, to
be found with stolen property in their
possegsion
