And liras remembered many things
Which they would fain renew.

LAWS.
On The Poor Man’s Bankrupt
Law, And Other Laws.
Why can’t the Georgia law
makers pass a poor man's bank¬
rupt law,? similar to our National
bankrupt law. Not so much red
tape and cheaper.
This is a so called government,
of the people, and for the people—
Thun why can’t George Chand
ler or. George Laroiscn, get the
benefits of a bankrupt law as well
Jesse W. Jopes or J,H. Almand.
VVe allow a poor debtor a pom
poas oath in a justice court, so as
to enable him. to carry his cause to
a higher court free from cost . Why
can t we allow him the same prjv
ilege in a bankrupt court.
Why can’t the noor man ’ settle
his debts, in a bankrupt court, as
well as a rich man?
I don’t think it honest or right
for any man to pay debts'in any
each a way. “Pay that thou
owest! Owe no man anything.

permit one man to settle his debts

claims of large majorities for Bryan in New York, Ohio. II

that Bryan carried Kentucky by a scratch.
