Odell today declared in an interview

/ laws making insurance safer anu cheap
/ Yer for the policyholders.
4 ssOh. yes. the era Of peace and good
Il will is already here,'' said Mr.. Odell,
II leaning back in his chair at headquar-
4 tiers and putting at an unusuallys.!ong
II Cigar. Everybody in the republican
i party, with a few exceptions,:is happy
Il over the prospects of Mr.. Parsons cleo
i zion as head of the New York county
4 committee. MI. President is delighted,
B the governor is satisfied, Senator Platt
4 is contented, William Barnes, Jr, IS
u resting under his own vine and fig tree,
\ and am happy. With such a distin-
U sguished bunch Of nonresident munich
Il pal reformers banded together in peace
Il aful concord, there is no reason why the
4 local republicans should give them any
II further concern about their own at
Sfairs. The only ones know Of who
SSare at all disgruntled are Lemuel F..
h SQuigg and J. Van Vechten Olcott-and
Sim really sorry for them.
nNow that such happy conditions
Il spreyail, let US forget politics and work
together for the good of the communi-
II sty. For instance, we all ought to get
atogether to hold up the hands Of the
Legislature, which will soon assemble.
sI1et us get the mortgage tax repealed;
slet us get ballot reform, and, above all,
let us get laws passed to make insur-
ance cheaper to the policyholders, and
absolutely safe. The legislature is
sready and willing to do all these
sthings.''
