HON. W. F. KIRBY HEARD FROM.

Mr.. G. A. Hays hands us the fol-
lowing letter in answer to the reso-
utions passed by the hoard Of
trade meeting aud forwarded to
him as a protest against the anti
trust insurance law:
Little Rock, April IA, l899.-Mr.
G. Hays Secretary Board of Trade
A copy of the resolutions Of the
business mems meeting, relative to
the anti trust law is received. We
thought at the time of it's passage
to prohibit and abolish "board and
combination rates" fixed by fire in
surance companies in this state;and
if possible, thereby to compel COM
panies to compete for business as
other legitimate enterprises have
to do. / did not fOresee any such
result as the refusal of the FIRE
companies to do business in the
state; aud their representative, who
appealed before the senate judiciary
committee, of which | am mem-
Der, and made an argument in
opposition to the measure, did not
even remotely insinuate that its
passage would have any such effect.
| examined the bill less carefully
than | would have done if he had
not made his speech, because !
know it is usual for an attorney in
such matters to point all the de-
fects in a measure and predict as
many dire calamities from its pas
sage as could possibly result, if not
a few more. If this result had been
seen, the bill most probably would
net have passed as it is. | think
the law is right, aud, l also know
that insurance is a commercial
necessity, and will endeavor to
SO amend our law as to give our
people opportunity to insure. l
doubt if this act can be amended
since / have heard the members
talking about it. We probably can
amend our general law so as to
make it to the interest of all other
companies, not in the trust, to do
business with us; l think so, at
least Very respectfully,
". Z. KIRBY.

He Wants a Wife.

We publish an advertisement
today from a gentleman living in
Cove, Ark, who says he wants to
correspond with some lady with a
view to matrimony. Now is a
chance for some of our ladies to
get a husband. We know Of some
happy marriages made in this way
and then there are Others made,
not panuing out so well.
We advise any lady who may en-
ter into a correspondence with the
gentleman before she consents to
become his bride should the cor
respondence and an exchange OF
photographs lead up to an anti
cipated engagement to thoroughly
investigate the man, learn his
habits and surroundings before the
engagement. If the advertiser is
d gentleman, and we do not doubt
but what he Is, he will not inter
pose any objection, but will help
on with the investigation. We
have had our say, now have yours
with him by letter if you desire.
