Lease system Is Abolished.

The house has killed the convict
lease system which has been in vogue
in Tennessee for a number of years.
The bill which eliminated the system
was championed by Mr.. Cameron in
the lower branch, and has had a rocky
road, since being in the hands of the
committee to which it was referred af-
ter passage on second reading.
The majority of the committee rec.
commended the bill for rejection, but a
minority report was filed in the house
by the other members of the commit.
tee, and sentiment in favor OF the bin
was considerably stimulated thereby.
Mr. Cameron, the author of the meas
ure, worked necessarily for his meas.
ure, and when it was called up made
plea for its passage. The equity OF
the measure and the humanitarian mo-
tives prompting Mr.. Cameron in draft
ing the bill were endorsed by the over.

which stood So to 5.
