the measure was reached , to the astonish-
iccnt of the cntlro state twenty-eight mem
bers , and seine of them belonging to
this sama committee , voted to refer It back to
the committee with instructions to report
first on n bill reducing freight charges. The
committee obeyed nnd nearly a mouth of val
uable time was purposely consumed by the
railroad lawyers In quibbling over technicali
ties and in discussing whether all discrim
ination should bo prohibited , or only bueh as
could bo shown to bo "unduo nnd unreason
able. " They finally succeeded in emasculat
ing the semite bill by adopting a
clnuso legalizing discrimination ! ) in cer
tain cases , mid all the work went for
nothing , The house , meanwhile , had per
fected , with grout care , House Kilo "JI73 , " to
prohibit nil discrimination nnd extortion , and
investing the railroad eommlssloneis with
power to fix rates , and scat it to the senate.
This bill , the senate , after vainly endeavor
ing to amend r.nd strike out it * clauses the
ralhoads objected to. was forced to pass ,
Tbiv. house followed up its good work
by passing a maximum tarifT bill
almost Identical with the rates that
prevail in Illinois , and n two-cent
faro bill ; also n lull providing for the elec
tion of railroad commissioners by the people.
This bill , which was demanded by both po
litical parties , was agreed to by the senate ,
but neither the maximum tariff nor the 8-
cent faro bill were considered by that body.
When brought fai o to fto with the last
named mcabi.ro , the scsnnte , after rotlnp by
twrnty-two to uventy-flvo not to take it , per
mitted itself to bo Rtaoiported by the railroad
senators Into setting n dny for the final ( ad
journment. anJ literally ran away from mini-
orous good measure1' , anil iriuny private bills ,
leaving its v.-uils scarcely half Uono. The
house , having nothing to do , niul with many
members very nnxinus cither to get homo or
to attend the anmml encampment of tint G.
A. K. at Cedar ICupids , was persuaded that
it would not bo proper to hold the senate by
refusing tu concur in the resolution to ad
journ , and force that body tfl consider tticso
bills. So all the railroad legation tbnt was
cr.nctud ilocs not necessarily reduce cither
passenger or freight rnlci cno
jvnny. The qucsiio-.i of passencer
fairs will remain unchanged for two year *
at least , nnd thn freight iirvbli-m must bo

The democrats have not yet named any can
didates but Chairman Hunter of the Central
committee who has long been employed by
the "Q" may bo depended on to run in some
niilioud democrats in duo time , on hoping to
draw enough icmiullcan votes from railroad
employes to pull them through.
TUB r.utMnn SUNATOIIS ,
Strnngo to say , the railroad legislation in
the senate was defeated by farmers. Five
fanner senators--Drawer of Hancock , Kent
of Lee , Payncer of Taina , Mills of Marshall ,
nnd Wclumnn of Montgomery deliberately
jollied hands with railroad lawyers , like
Wnalson , Halter and Cinrlt , to strangle the
house bills. Of these , Mills and Wcidman ,
repicscnt strong anti-monopoly constituen
cies , and it will bo interesting to note the
excuse they will make for deliberately be
traying their interests , To bo called a liberal
11 mi high-minded statesman , n rising man , by
the corporation press seems to bo the height
of ambition by some farmers who acciden
tally become legislators. The railroad lobby
ists murk such for n victim at once , nnd is
seldom unsuccessful.
A coon sacisunc TIHT FAILED.
Among tha good measures that failed
to become n law in the general hurry
nnd scramble was the bill regulating the
charges of sleeping cars m the state. The
trust bill pulled through nt the very last mo
ment The railroad attorneys assembled in
force to witness the final scenes. They ox ]
nressed themselves ns well pleased with the
result , uud predicted that few of the antimonopoly -
monopoly members would over again bo
heard of in a legislative capacity.

The good work of the house is duo In n

Hon. JnuicsG. Uerrj hill of this city. De
clining the unanimous nomination for
speaker , lie took his ix > siton ! on the lloor of
the house as tbo acknowledged leader of the
progressive element , nnd. with consummate
eklfi nnd ability , thwarted every effort of the
lobby to lead the members astray or prevent
them from carrying out the pledges of the
party. He vfua tliu uuthor of house file U73 ,
which went through without a single dissent

sisted every elToit to raid the treasury ,
ill ( he interest of extrriYasant. and reckless

hill belongs to the young and progressive cle
ment of the republican party he is scarcely
thlrty-flvo and is both hated nnd feared by
corporation strikers nna boodlers of every

Washington Special : Few people
away from Washington are aware of the
fact that every word uttered upon the
floor of either house or honato , when ad
dressed to either ( speaker or president ,
is taken down and appears in the Con
gressional Hccord. It ib true that much
time , money , paper and printer's ink is
wasted by this , but nevertheless it is a
fact. ] iut to do thl.i , of courno , re
quires the employment of the most rapid
and experienced stenogr.ipers. Five of
these are employed upon tno lloor of the
house simply to take down the speeches ,
debates , etc. The chief of the corps re
ceives a salary of $0,000 , while Ihcothcr
four are paid 81,000 lebs. These men
himply take down the words in short
hand , working for fifteen minutes each
in succession , When each one's fifteen
minutes expires ho repairs to thoofllcinl
reporter's room where ton more steno
graphers are employed two to each
man to whom are read tbo reports
taken on the floor , nnd who take a copy
in Ehort-hnnd , They then translate
this into long hand , using u type-writer
to prepare the copy for the printer.
Those men are paid by space , getting $1
per column in the Hecord. The same

inestimable value. It is of one of Edlr
son's inventions , nnd is called thn
graphaphono. The machine very mucli
ref > c > inblcs a lady's sewing machine ,
and is worked in the same manner bV
a jmilnl. The instrument is used in this
wise : When one of the principal stone *
grnphors concludes his lloor report ho
goes to tliis machine , reads his report
into a funnel connecting with the main
cylinder , which is gulta porchacoated ;
and revolvers while the point of a ,
nccdlo connecting with the tube front
the funnel mouthpiccu rests against itj
The cylinder envc-lops a screw which
prevents the nocdlo tracing a firmer lino.
When the stenographer finishes reading
his report another operator attaches
tubes to the cylinder , connecting with
his oars.work the machine and the woruq
of the stenographer arc repeated to him
in the same tone of voice of the provU
ous talker. The rapidity of the tullt
can bo regulated and the operator can
thus , with case , take down the exact
words by the use of n typewriter or an
ordinary pen. The machine is cor *
tainly wonderful and enables a person
with the assistance of a typewriter todd
the work of two ordinary stenographers
who first have to take llm report in
shorthand and then translates it ,
Those guttn norcha cylinders , I nog *
lectcd to mention above , can bo fatored
away , and years after , if placed upon
the machine , the Biuno words used to
day n ill bo repented in the oxnct tone
of the speaker of to-day. Thus bhould
nnv record become destroyed these
cylinders may bo resorted to.
Another thing about thi.i machine 13
that a person hero can talk for an hour
into one , mail the cylinder to Atlanta , , , ,
where by the usoof a machine the exact -
act words here will bo repeated , thug
saving the labor of writing long com
munic.iticms.
