FLORIDA SAFE FOR BRYAN.

The Democrats OF Florida are MAX
ing as vigorous a campaign as if they
feared defeat. The leaders of the
State Democracy will be heard in every
part of the State before the campaign
is over. Thus far they have been adj
dressing large and enthusiastic crowds,
and the prospect is for the largest vote
ever cast in Florida. There is not the
least doubt of the result. The white
voters of Florida have majority of
nearly 10000 over the blacks, and it is
now evident that the number of col
ored voters who will support the Demo
cratic ticket is largely in excess of
the white voters who will support the
Republican ticket.-Jacksonville fla

To the Bryan Speaking at Raleigh
Half Rates on Southern System.
The Seaboard Air Line seems to have
a proper conception of the magnitude
of the demonstration in honor of Mr..
BRYAN in the city of Raleigh on the
night of September II, and is rising TO
the requirements of the occasion.
Preparations are being made to run
special trains from Weldon TO Raleigh,
and from Hamlet to Raleigh, giving all
the people living along the line an OPP
portunity to come to Raleigh and hear
the champion of the hosts of silver.
A very low rate for the occasion will be
made rate that will enable all to
come to the capital city and hear Mr..
BRYAN. The schedule of the special
train and the rates win be announced
in day or two.
The Southern Railroad Company yes
terday announced that for the Bryan
meeting at Raleigh they would make a
special rate of one fare for the round
trip from all stations along the line.
They have not yet arranged to run any
special trains, as Mr.. Bryan's route
through the State is almost entirely
on the Southern, and the people along
the line will be given an opportunity
to hear him at a number of other
points.
The greatestcrowd that eyerattended
public meeting in the State will gath
er at Raleigh on the might of the 18th.
The people all along these two great
systems of railroads will come to Raj
agh by the thousands.

Woman is laying out some big work
in these days. For instance, in France
q league Of women has just been form
ed whose object is the suppression OF
war. This is to be accomplished by
bringing about international disarma-
ment by q vigorous agitation. The
guiding spirits of this new undertake
ing are Nine. Camille Flammarion, the
astronomers charming wife, and the
Princess Wiszniewska, who, though by
her second marriage the wife of for
eigner, is a French woman by birtA.
Allied with these two women are sew
eral others, representing all the leading
nations of Europe, and these form the
general council of the league. Subordi-
nate branches will be established in all
the leading cities, and will receive in
structions from the national represent
atives, whose headquarters, it is pre-
sumed will be in Paris. Thus the
branches scattered throughout Austria,
for example, will be governing for
all practical purposes, but will look for
final directions to some distinguished
Austrian woman, who will be their rep
resentative in the national council In
this way it is hoped that in time all
Europe, and incidentally America, will
feel the influence of the league, and
that, as a result, swords and rifles will
before long be turned into ploughshares
and other useful agricultural imple-
ments.
Success to the new league. If Woman
can put an end to war she will show all
the wonderful influence that is now
claimed for her And if she can take
the military notion out of men she will
make herself safe against resort to
arms by men determined to put her
down and deny her her proper place in
the world

TINT ASPHALT CONTRACT

Last evening the Court of Common
Council called halt in the dicker be-
tween the Board of Public Works and
the Boston Asphalt company, or, at
least, tried to. The legal situation, if
there is any, of the asphalt deal IN
which the city of New Haven appears
to be stuck is rot clear, but it is clear
enough that the steps which have been
and are to be taken to find out how
much and in what way the city of New
Haven has been stuck in said asphalt
are amply warranted. If orders have
been disregarded, and if there has been
extravaganza such as is charged, the
facts should be made plain. 1t will not
do to have extravagant contracts made
for the city in an Illegal way, and it
will be well to try to prevent the MAX
ing of extravagant contracts for the
city in a legal way.

The insurance commissioner of Penn
sylvania is also attending to business
He recently complained that mutual fire
insurance companies We're going out of
their legitimate field, and he now makes
like charge against assessment life
insurance companies, accompanying it
with the graver charge that these extra
territorial excursions are made with in
tent to deceive. Many of these COM
panies, the commissioner says, are is
suing policies which are not materially
different from those issued by level
premium companies, while not required
to maintain the reserve compelled of
those companies. The agents of some
of the companies are full of expedients
for imposing upon too credulous peo-
pie. And this is countenanced by the
companies themselves. The aim is to
make people believe that they are not
q natural timidity about entering into
a contract the cost of which cannot be
calculated, and which may have no lin
it. They are told they are not taking
an assessment policy; that the payment
of fixed premium is all that will be
required, and the policies are worded
with such dextrous obscurity as make
this appear to be the fact and at the
same time really provide for future as
sessments. Plenty of people to their
sorrow have been caught in these traps,
for they are ingeniously and dellber-
ately constructed.
The law of Pennsylvania does not au-
thorize the transaction of this kind of
business by assessment companies.
Neither does it prohibit it to such a de-
gree of explicitness as would enable the
insurance commissioner to protect the
people. He asks that the law require
that assessment companies do only an
assessment business, that the word "as-
sessment' be part of the title, and that
the policies and certificates of an as
sessment company state explicitly that
it does business on the assessment plan,
which is both honest and reasonable.
