CURRY FAVORs DELEGATE

Washington, D. c., Jan. 24-AIf the

since opposed by the district commits
siOners, providing for district represen-
tations on the floor of congress.
The idea of having a delegate ap-
pointed by the president to represent
the people of the district TO me seems
foolish. Such a man would not repre-
sent the people at all, and they could
not defeat him if he did not do what
they wanted. If there is going to be a
delegate, he should certainly be elected
by the people themselves and be re-
spOnsible to them"

ProhibItfOn Question.


Katy consolidation bill
Prohibition Question.
Efforts to keep the prohibition ques-
constitutional convention failed, and it
looks as if there may be another state
wide prohibition election If the reso-
luton can be finally passed.
Constructive Legislation.
Much in the way Of constructive leg
islation will be accomplished at the
present session in the event the mem
bers, accept the offer Of the governor as
announced in his inaugural speech The
governor appealed Tor cooperation and
declared he would meet the lawmakers
half way in any measure for the wei
fare and benefit of the people and the
state. 1t is already apparent that this
legislature is radically different from
that of two years ago, and 1t may be
observed that the chief executive has
also displayed a disposition to do all he
can to get some needed and wholesome
laws enacted during the present session.
Members of both houses are very
much pleased with the governors atti-
tude toward the educational Institutions
OF the state and in the event sufficient
appropriations are not made for these
institutions, the governor made it plain
that the fault would be with the legiS-
branch Of the government The same
may be said Of the penitentiary system
of the state. The governor wants hu-
name laws for the government Of the
cOnvicts and favors total adjustment
of the bat, and it is understood he also
favors the bill by representative Hill,
Of Walker county, for the issuance Of
S3,OOO,0 900 of bonds by the state to
place the penal system under a per-
manent financial basis.
Many Bills introduced.
Exactly ESQ bills have thus far been
introduced in both branches of the leg
islature- OF that number 156 were in
PRODUCED in the house and 81 in the SEN
ate. Thus, even if no more bills are in
PRODUCED, the lawmakers would have
sufficient work to keep them busy for
the next 80 days. There has been a
marked absence Of freak bills in the
number introduced which shows that
the present legislature means business.
These bills cover a wide range of sub
jects-
Interest On Judgments.
Senate judiciary committee No. has
reported favOrably a senate bill prOvid-
ing that all judgments shall bear 10
percent interest from the date of such
judgments. This bill is by senator
Townsend At present the usual rate is
either or s percent. There was a nil
nority adverse report, however, on this
measure, which indicates a fight may
be made on its passage.
