distribution among the tndfgent Confed-
 crate soldiers. This btll has been with
 the Governor since the winter session.
 The Governor has not as yet taken any
 action upon the bill and he has given no
 intimation of his intention in regard to the pension bill. Mr. Walden yesterday introduced a resolution of enquiry as to the condition of the State treasury. The resolution directed the Auditor to report to the Legislature the amount of money paid into the treasury by the Convict Department for the present year since the making of the new contract with the mine owners.
 Senator T. s. Frazer of Bullock County yesterday introduced a bill, giving Ala bama practically the same vagrancy law as that just put into effect by the Georgia Legislature. The new bill defines as vagrants, persons in idleness. who are physically able to work and who have no property on which to exist, persons lead ing a profiligate life. who have the phy- sical ability to work and who do not work nor have property on which to live. persons who are able to work and who have no reputable livelihood, persons who live by setaling or batering stolen prop erty, professional gamblers, able bodied men living on money made by their wives or minor children and able bodied beg gars. vagrancy is made misdemeanor and punishable as such by the bill.
 A bill introduced yesterday in the
 House by MT. Rich of Mobile. drew att
 tention to the fact that the State of Ala bama owned lands on the Tombigbee river, rich in deposit of cement, clay and
 rock. The bill of Mir. Rich seeks to em-
 power the Governor to lease the right
 to quarry this cement rock and clay. -t
The Montgomery advertiser., 1903-09-02

is understood that such lease can be quickly made. lease which will bring g revenue to the State from an unexpected source. The quarrying of cement rock and the manufacture of cement at De- mopolis is one of Marengo county's most important industries. The cement lands of the State are located on the Tom- bigbee river, fifty miles above Mobile.
 The vexed question of peonage which has been so prominently before the pub lie in the past few months made an early appearance in the House. Repre- sentative Reynolds. the populist member from Chiffon county, introduced spe- cial bill making 1t a misdemeanor to re- strain the liberty of any person. The bill provides that any person convicted of that offense shall be fined not less than $100 and not more than $1,000. The bill went to the Judiciary Committee.
 Senator Geo. P. Harrison of Lee yes- terday introduced bill ito better pro- vide for the protection of the virtuous women of Alabama The bill makes any indecent proposal or language to a woman known to be of virtuous charac- ter. felony punishable by not more than ten years Imprisonment
 Senator Hugh Morrow of Jefferson, has introduced a bill providing for the es- tablishment of a summer school for the teachers of Alabama at the State Uni versity at Tuscaloosa.

 4 Same; same.-On a trial under an indictment charging larceny of money from person, where 1t Is shown that the defendant and the person from whom the money was alleged to have been stolen | were strangers. and that immediately

LEGISLATION ,uD LEGISLATORS.


'sSay, I've got a general stock law bill which will prove satisfactory to all par ties" said a senator yesterday to rep resentative, My bill provides that the other fellow invariably builds the fences"
 .'weIl. you may be able to pass that hill, but it's the only sort of stock law bill that will pass the House." replied the representative.
 The point to the senator's remark IS appreciated by those who remember the remarkable fight that was waged about the Thomas stock law bill during the winter session. The House wrangled over this bill for three days. The men who wanted the insiders" to build the fence and the men who wanted the out siders'' to bear the expense, fought each other to a finish. The bill, after num- Der of alterations and amendments. pass ed the House. The very next day the representatives undid their work by re- considering the vote which passed the bill It was the hardest fight of the ses- sion. The fight was more intense than the contest over the bill making the Railroad Commissioners elective by the people.
 There seems to be much truth in the statement made by the representative that the only satisfactory stock law bill would be one of which its author could say when some member rose to ask who builds the fence, "The other fellow" |"
 No more will Montgomerians see Lew Whistler put the leathern sphere over the plank fence at Pickett Springs on Sunday If a bill introduced by Senator Walter U. Acree passes both legislative bodies. The bill introduced by the Sena- tor from Dale does not specialize against Sunday ball playing In Montgomery. It covers the entire State and makes of lenders against the laws of the State, the small boys who toss cotton balls on Sunday. as we'll as the paid players. The bill provides that any person convicted of playing ball on Sunday is subject to Q Ene of not more than $10 on the first offence and a fine of not more than $2C on the second conviction. In default of 4his fine the Sunday ball player may be imprisoned for not more than three months. While the bill prohibits Sunday bali playing throughout the State. 1t is peculiarly of interest to Montgomery, the only Alabama town in the Southern League having Sunday ball. It is un- derstood that the advocates of the game here will strenuously oppose the passage of the bill.
 Colonel William A. Handley of Roan- Ule, is in his seat. very much improved . An health, and ready to do his part of 1he hard work before the present Legis- lature. He is one of the rrst men who started the present prosperity in Ala bama, and he is always ready to labor for and serve his State No man in the House will have greater influence upon legislation than Colonel Handley. and that it will be for good is attested by his great love for his State and his people.
