Savannah is on the up grade She is
growing steadily and quite rapidly. She is
entering upon an era of improvements
Within the last year or two many thou
sands of dollars have been spent upon her
streets and parks, and il is proposed to spend
many thousands more A sewerage system
to carry off the drainage from her houses is
proposed, and other things nre to be done
for her benefit.
To do these things, and TO manage the
city's affairs economically and success
fully, good business men are needed in the
council. and level-headed man, who is
city, is needed for mayor
The kind of men to administer the affairs
of the city can be had. They have always
been found and they can be found again.
The people should make I'd their mind:
whom they want for mayor and council
men, and in making choice they should
keep steadily in view the interests of the
city. They should not be afuelced by the
ambition or needs of anyone Good liner

Where He Was Sustained.
From The Boston Globe (Dem.)

There is one striking thing about the returns,
and that is, that while in many cases Clev Gland
fell of in the country districts, almost all the
cities OF 10000 inhabitants and over showed
Cleveland gains. That mea that in the chief
centers of thought and intelligence, where the
people had the fullest information and voted
with the greatest independence and discretion,
the Presidents reform policy was sustained.

1t will be just as we'll for all parties il it shall
turn out that the republicans have an actual
majority in the House of Representatives. With
the President and the Senate the party will then
have the undivided responsibility for the gov
eminent OF the union for two years to come,
and ii its power be badly used it will be all the
easier to vote it out again. As a matter of fact,
political antagoniSm between congress and
the Senate has seldom proved advantageous and
has very often worked badly.

Insurance Companies Condemned.

Insurance Companies Condemned,
Recorder Smyth, of New York city,
made a charge against insurance companies
a day or two ago that is a very serious one,
and one that ought to attract the attention
of the legislatures of the different states.
He said: ~ have no sympathy with the fire
insurance companies, because they tempt
poor people to commit arson by getting them
to insure their property for more than its
real value, thus collecting premiums poor
persons cannot afford to pay, and allowing
the people to believe that if their property
is destroyed they will get the full amount
of tue policies when, as a matter of fact,
they would not get more than the real value
of the property"
1t can hardly be possible that this charge
apples to all insurance companies. There
may be dishonest insurance agents who, for
the sake of commissions, tempt poor people
| in the way alleged by Recorder Smyth, but
| all insurance companies ought not to
| be condemned fer the wrong doing of a
few.
The case in which the recorder made the
above charge was that of Mary j. Shafer,
who was convicted of setting fire to her
house on Aug 4, and who was sentenced to
the penitentiary for seven years.
Doubtless too many insurance companies
are careless about investigating the prop
erty which they insure They not infre-
quently write policy on property for sew
eral thousand dollars more than it is worth.
When a man wants to insure his property
for an amount grea err than its value, it is
pretty certain that he means to improve
his financial condition at the expense of the
company which has been so unwlse as take
his risk.
If the transaction involved only the grasp
ing insurance company and the insured, the
public would not be disposed to complain
very loudly, but it doesn't. 1t involves the
property of honest people in the vicinity of
the man who seeks TO cheat the insurance
company. There ought to be penalty for
insuring property for more than it Is worth
Either that or some other way ought to be
adopted for the protection Of honest prop
erty owners.
