Senator w. j. Harris believes too
much time Of the general assembly
is taken up with purely local bills.
In order to get at a system which
will obviate taking up so much time
Of the entire bodies with local meas
ures, he has introduced resolution
for joint committee to investigate
and report to the 1913 assembly
some plan whereby all local affairs
can be handled by one general com
mittee, thus giving house and sena-
te open wav for consideration OF
general measures all the time.
1t is understood that other states
have worked out a system whereby
local measures are given this direc-
ton, and it might be made applic2
able to the Georgia legislature.
Ninety yer cent Of the bills passed
are local.
Governor Brown doesn't go very
strong for big public functions. On
last Thursday many members OF the
assembly went upto Rome TO attend
a big barbecue Of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association.
Gov. Brown was invited and as
he was absent from the capitol that
day, nearly everybody thought he'd
gone to Rome. But he did not go
there.
Instead he went up to Cherokee
county to eatsnap beans, corn pone,
and fried chicken with Aunt Martha
Evans in honor Of her Goth birth
day. And his excellency said he
never enjoyed a day more.
One of the guests was Uncle Ber-
ny Duncan, "a years old. And
Uncle Berry raises with his own
hands bale Of cotton and so bus
hels Of corn every year. People up
there don't begin to get really old
until they are well past the 100
mark.
Whatever the sentiment in Geor-
gia for sessions of the legislature
every two years, there certainly isn't
any such sentiment in the legisla-
ture itself. A bill of Mr.. Christop-
her, of Hall, for biennial sessions
of go days was killed by very lar
&c vote last week. Very few
favored it.
Macon is trying to force its CAPT
tai removal bill out in the open for
final action. Representative De-
fore, of Bib, has offered a resolu-
ton to make it the special order for
July %, but the matter is tied up
in the rules committee, which is all
powerful in such things.
If the bill does come to vote in
the house any time soon, Macon
people are planning to run special
train to Atlanta with hundreds OF
business men abroad, and a drum
corps and band and whoop things
up generally. A plan is also afoot
to bring large delegations from Sou
tn Ga.
It looks as if at least two new
counties will be created by this leg
islature, Barrow county, created out
of Walton, Jackson, and Gwinnett,
with Winder IS the county seat, has
received favorable action at the
hands Of the senate. The house
passed the. bill to divide Pulaski
county in half, creating the new
county of Bleckley, so named in
honor Of David G. Barrow, chan
cellor of the University of Georgia,
Several other new county pro-
positions have received unfayorable
action from committees. If these
two new counties are created Geor-
gia will have exactly $50 counties.

all the way from Rochester, Michigan to buy an
overcoat.
He did not know we were holding sale (too
bad every man cannot know of it), but he had
heard that this is great overcoat store, and he
wanted something different than he could get at
home-something about $25."
We showed him a number of coats He liked
them all, but finally decided on great brown
ulster with lining of almost golden-colored
satin.
He handed the salesman $25, and the salesman,
with a smile, handed him back $3.50.
