WORK OF THE LEGISLATURE.
Very Few Bills of General In :
terest Were Passed.

The general assembly which has
lust adjourned did not pass more than
fifteen or twenty generel bills, and
very few of these were of special i'm
portance.
Among the frs meas ures in inter
est which went through the leglsia-
ture there are the Howell resolution
providing for the payment OF the IN
terest on the bonded debt for wv out
of the public property fund after the
case has been passed on by the su-
breme court, the Atlanta depot DILL
the fertilizer bill and the appropria-
ton bills.
The fertilizer bill by Mr.. Jordan, of
Jaspersis considered one of the most
impo rtant measures to the farming in
terests that went through the leglsla-
ture. This measure rails the stand
ard of CONNIE r ial fertilizers TO be sold
in the state so that no fertilizers can
be sold hereafter with less than Il per
cent of free phosphoric acid or plant
food. The pero 1tage under the pres
ant law is 10 per cent. The bill does
away with the lowest grade of lertili-
zers. and provides Tor only two grades
in the future, standard and high. 1t
also makes provision for the more
careful insptc ion OF fertilizers and
the manner i'll which they shall be
soli.
The important appropriation bills
viii IN went through include the sol
diers' home bill appropiatlng the Sl9 :
500 insurance money for tne rebuild
inc of the home and $4,000 for main
tai a ce4 and equipment next year;
the DILL appropriating S2O,0OO Tor the
support OF the state militia during the
coming year; the resolution apprpprla-
ting S $500 to make the deficiency
in the amount tolbe paiu for INDECENT
soldiers pensions: the resolution aD-
propriating 81, 600 to make up a deh-
cheney in the printing fund, and the res
olution APT rJpriating $1,000 to supply
the deficiency in the contingent fund
and So, $50 to supply the deficiency IN
last years pension fund.
The foregoing are the general ollls
of greatest Importance that were pass
ed. There were a dozen or more oth-
ets. but most of ZEN simply remedy
certain defects in present laws, IN
stead OF providing entirely new stat
utes.
The house and senate passed b.
tween 200 and 800 local bills.
Several important measures before
the general assembly failed because
me. business OF the gen rLl assemo
WAS rot pushed forward rapidly
enough. The most important OF these
nerhaps. was the bill providing for a
number of constitutional amendments.
Eight amendments TO the constltu,
tion. all of which were CONSIDERED OF
great Importance, were adopted by the
senate for SUBMISSION TO the people, but
this bill failed in the house because Il
was not reached until the last day OF
the session, and there were not enough
members present TO pass 1t even Il
there bad been no opposition. 1t re-
onires III votes in the house to sub
init constitutional amendment to the
people. and when this 10 assure was
reched there were only 90 members
