Fight over New Georgia appropriation bills in House
The Georgia House holds two daily sessions to push several appropriation bills led by Representative J O Adams. Key actions include funding for state normal school repairs, a chloride of maintenance, and a $10 000 allotment for the state tuberculosis sanitarium. A bid to fund a railroad classification study failed, while resolutions honored Asa G Candler and expressed regrets over Rep. Hardeman’s departure. Local bills creating boards and amending charters passed, and two meetings daily are set through next Wednesday.
