Got the Speakers Permission.
From the Boston Globe
A story of one Of the rural members is being
told about the state house. 1t was after We'd
nesday's session, when the member referred tc
approached the speaker with diffidence and more
or less timidity. Speaker Barrett was busy
talking to friends, and as he was about to go to
his room voice said to him in trcmulous
tones: "Mr. Speaker, I'd like to go home.''
Turning around Mr.. Barrett saw before him
his rural friend, and, with his characteristic
smile, said:
We'll, Mr.. Blank. If l were you I'd CO."
The new member had evidently been reading
rule II OF the house, which says that no mem.
Der shall absent himself without leave unless
there be quorum without his presence.

CRISP is A WINNER.
No Balk of Opposition to Him as
Speaker Heard.

The calling Of congress in extra
session is already evoking gossip as to
the reorganization of both bodies. Such
changes as are to be made in the Of
fetal force of the senate, including a
new secretary and sergeant-at arms,
have alredy been determined upon.
and the new officers will enter upon
their duties and salaries when the
senate meets.
The only new face on the floor of
the senate will be Senator Standards
successor, appointed by the governor
of California. The other senators were
sworn in on the 9TH Of March last.
Complete reorganization of the hous
is involved, with many new members
to take their seats. The new speaker
clerk, sergeant-at-arms, doorkeepeI
and postmaster are to be elected and
brand new committees are to be APP
pointed. This does not necessarily
mean a change in the personnel of al
these officials, but it, is quite in the
bounds of probability that some Of
them may be supplanted by new men
AS to the speakership itlis univer-
sally conceded that Charles F. Crisp
of Georgia, will again weld the gave
in the fifty-third congress. There is nj
talk of opposition to him, nor has there
been any.

What is to be the foundation Of

"It's fundamental principle will be
the common rights OF man. II will be

WILL NOT SUSPEND THE FILLING
OF INSURANCE CHARTERS.
Has Written Gov. Turney a Letter,
However.
Attorney General Pickle has refused

Attorney General Pickle has refused
to empower Secretary of State Morgan
to suspend the filing OF foreign char
tiers in his office, and it now looks as
if an extra session of the General AS
sembly to straighten out the insur-
ance muddlei is unavoidable. Secretary
Morgan and the members of the com.
mittee saw Attorney General Pickle
yesterday and last night The Ame1i-
can received this telegram from New
port, Cooke County
Newport, Tenn, June 29.-Attorn-
cy General Pickle declines to give
Secretary Morgan written opinion sus-
pending the requiring of the filing Of
the charters, but sends letter to Gov.
Turney."
This message was shown to couple
OF insurance men last night, and they
said it was just what they expected.
They were of the opinion all along
that Gen. Pickle could not consistent
ly direct the suspension of the law in
the face of the recent decision of the
Supreme Court. Secretary Morgan
said prior to his departure for East
Tennessee that Ire would be necessarily
compelled to carry out the law, unless
the Attorney General gave him written
authority to suspend its operations
The time expires tomorrow unless the
Attorney General, in his letter, advises
the Governor to take some action. Jus
what is in the letter is hard to divine
but it is presumable that the Governor
will be left to solve the difficulty. Tn,
obnoxious law is on the statute books
and it would seem, as repeatedly hello
in these columns, that the only safe
and practical way out of the difficulty
is an extra session of the General
/, Assembly.
There seems to be lingering doub
in the minds of some of the insurance
men as to whether or not all the com
panies will withdraw. Some of them
if not nearly all, will it is believed
wait until they are forced to go.
The visitors were to hold anothe
conference tomorrow, but will probs
bly, meet as soon as the pilgrims re
turn, which may be some time to-day

the Fourth of July next. This is the
day which all true Americans ought to
celebrate as often as it occurs. When
however, the commoration of the dis.
covery Of the land we occupy and eel
ebration of the day when it was com
memorated and consecfated to liberty
and popular government.
ARE CONFIDENT.
The occasion should revive and
stimulate all ennobling and patriotic
sentiments which are essential to the
safety and perpetuity of the American
institutions. At such times it is fit
ting that we rejoice in the dauntlesl
purpose and constant devotion that
have thus far marked out the way O
our nation. We should lose the mos
important lesson Of the day we cele-
brate if we forget that the labor ant
diligence of those entrusted with sell
government must be unremitting anC
always patriotic.
