for reelection.
Hon. Jefferson D. Stephens is the nrst to an

In the matter of reform in the conduct Of these
life insurance companies little has been DONE despite
the disclosures of rascality. The same high pre-
mums being paid, the golden stream is still
flowing into the treasures of the companies.
Hyde, Mccall and the McCurdys have been thrown
out, the yellow Dog Fund" has been stopped, but
the policyhoders are carrying the same old burden
contributing before to the agents, officials and
other machinery of the great companies.
The present hope of relief may be found in the
plan of Lawson, who declares that he has all the
proxies needed to control the affairs of the great
life insurance companies in the interest of the policy
holders
Doubtless the adoption of Lawson's plans will re-
suit in much good to the insured. But while there
may be a grain of desire to aid the public in such
movement the real object Of Lawson's campaign is
spelled revenge. He hopes to deal heavy blow
to the Standard Oil Company or the System" which
he declares is the real beneficiary Of the insurance

was attached to it and the flames
quickly extingtished.

growth, and, second, to enable the peo-
pie to withstand a longer siege. How
well the second purpose was served is
shown by the fact that during the Tai
ping rebellion the city Of Marking was
besieged for. thirteen years. Just out
side &he, walls Of the city may still be
seen the earthworks thrown up by the
imperial army, which sometimes num-
bered $4,000.
But it must not be understood that
the capital cities were the only ones
protected by walls. On the contrary,
all the cities are walled; one sees fifteen
or twenty Of these walled cities on the
railroad, from Picking to Hankow and
a number of others on the ride down the
river to Shanghai.
The agricultural population, instead
Of occupying individual farms as in
America, is gathered in little villages,
each home being inclosed in it's own
wall. During the summer the people
swarm out from the cities and villages
and cultivate their little tracts of land
with the most primitive tools, carrying
the farm products back to their homes
on wheelbarrows orsin baskets balanced
on poles. In the north Of China the
camel is used for long-distance travel,

with shell of stone or large brick to
hold the earth in place. The watch
towers built at intervals along the
line add to it's imposing appearance
and make it an object Of historic in
terest, altho a large part Of the wall
has fallen into decay and in some places
only a ridge Of dirt remains. This
wall was constructed about 200 years
before the Christian era as protection
against hostile tribes Of the north, and
for many centuries it answered it's pur-
pose, altho today it only suggests a
tremendous waste Of labor. 4aa y
But the great wall, imposing as it is
because of its length, is inferior in
height, thickness and construction to
some Of the city walls. The wall of
the city of Picking, for instance, is
about sixty feet high and forty feet
wide at it's base, and is kept IN ex-
cellent repair. The wall incroses what
is known as the Tartar city and is
nearly four miles square. Huge watch
towers rise above each gate, and to
give still greater security the gates
open into an inclosed square. While
the walls of the city Of Picking are
the most substantial in the empire, the
walls Of Marking, the former capital
inclose nearly four times as much
ground. There was a double object

While in their style of dress and in

In the north the people are lighter
