it has never been in print, and illustrative of
Miss Carey's NOW Mrs. Raymond character:
"One summer, as was her custom, she spent
some little time in her fathers old home, u

her own during ner vacation. 1t was after
she had been feted at home and abroad, had

world is going to DO with YOU"
Nou are tired; let me iron awhile" said
the famous songstress.
The girl protested. Miss Cary insisted. and
carried her point. As her iron moved to and

OF her own life, showing with what labor she
had achieved her present success, and the
trials incident To public life. When she. too,
became weary she changed plac - with the

II is stated that those who oppose the
bill to allow appeals from the decisions Of
the railroad commission have sent circu-
lars by hundreds over the State for the
purpose OF procuring petitions with which
the House Of Representatives is to be over
whelmed and prevented from doing the
railroads a simple and tardy act OF JUS
tice. As the real point at issue In the bill
has doubtless been suppressed in the cir
culars, and the impression conveyed that
il Is fight OF the railroads against the
people, the value Of such petitions "a in.
dicating public opinion can very well DO
accounted. The average petitions OF mod
ern times do not carry great deal OF
weight with them. They are too often
machine made, and they will rarely hold
water.

Outspoken Resolutions

The resolutions adopted by the Savan-
nah Cotton Exchange last evening In
regard to the valued policy bill, now
before the General Assembly, give forth
no uncertain sound. The adoption of the
resolutions was practically unanimous,
and they represent the views of practical
business men who are interested in in
surance, not from the standpoint Of In
surance companies, but from that of
policy holders.
The resolutions are not only pointed and
earnest, but they present the reasons why
the enacting Of a valued policy law, even
as to real estate, as this bill provides,
would be Injurious TO insured and insur-
ers alike in very forcible and convincing
manner. The character of these resolu
tions, and the fact that they voice the
sentiment Of such a body OF men as the
Savannah Cotton Exchange, must give
them great weight in the Gen
eral Assembly. 10 is understood
that similar resolutions will likely be
adopted by the Savannah Board Of Trade
to-day. IL cannot be denied that the bust
ness men of Savannah are filed with the
gravest apprehensions on account Of the
proposed unwise tmkering with the IN
surance laws OF the State, as are thou
sands Of intelligent citizens In all parts
Of Georgia.
Information received from Atlanta from
private source is more reassuring in re-
gard TO the chances Of this bill to become
law. While IL was reported fayorably
by Il majority Of the committee TO which
il WAS referred, 1t Is understood that il
received bare majority in the commit
tee, having only Eve votes in its favor,
and that minority report opposing the
bin has been agreed upon which il in
dorsed by tour members Of the committee.
Citizens who are opposed to the bill,
however, should not refrain from exc
pressing themselves, as our insurance in
terests will never be safe until the
measure Is rs "dead as "A door nail"
The Democratic enthusiasm increases
IN Virginia as the campaign progresses.
Gen. Lee is having grand ovation IN the
valley, and thousands meet 10 hear him
and do him honor. He was in Shenan-
doah, Senator Riddleberger's county, the
other day, and 1t is confidently predicted
that he will carry II by 800 majority,
whereas II has heretofore regularly gone
for the readjusters.
