JONES LIK ES
 PRINTING BILL

Senator Jones of Barbour reioiced this morning when resolution intro duced by Senator Lewis of Macon con tained additional apparent procf that there is really need for the state to go into the printing business. Senator Jones. as is known, has Dill plo- vding that the government shall pub fish all its own papers, and even the books needed by school children throughout the state
 The resolution of Senator Lewis pro- vided for the government to print and have on the desk of every member Of the legislature each morning copies or the proceedings of the day before. Il, is also provided that each member shall be furnished with 50 copies per day in order that he might supply limited number of his constituents.
 In the house. as was pointed out some months ago in an Age-Herald interview, Representative Wttmeier of Blount holds Lewis. Both men believe that each mem- transpiring, for it is said to be true that very often one portion of a house know eth little of that which happens in the other.
 To carry out the resolution of Senator Lewis considerable money would have to be expended by the state. This fact might cause the postponement of its en- acment into law. However it is said to be true that the time is coming in Ala bams when the legislature will have it's daily Journal even as the Congress of the nation has.
