We approve these resolutions, and hope our Legislature, at its present session, will devise some wise and equitable plan to put a stop to the evil.
There is a wrong doing upon this subject, that ought to be reached in some way and regulated by law.
On the same day, in the Tennessee Legislature, Mr. Caruthers, from the Committee on Judiciary, to whom was referred that portion of the Governor's Message, reported two bills on the subject of frauds, speculations, and monopolies.
One was a bill to suppress buying and selling on false pretences, and the other was a bill to suppress monopolies.
These bills have fines and imprisonments in county jails and pentitentiaries as the penalties for various grades of offences under these acts.
