PER CAPITA FIRE LOSS.

The per c1pita fire loss in the
United States for 1912 was $2.55
winch IS many times higher than it
was in the pr acipal European coun-
tries. The per capita loss in England
was 81 cents in France "a, and in
Germany 20. So our loss was more
than ten times as great per capt.
as IN Germany and about five times
as great as in England. These figures
suggest at glance the reason for
our fire insurance premiums are
higher than Europe's. Premiums are
based upon losses, and they are not
likely to be much lower until we
have fewer fires and less destructive
ones. The chief reasons for the lower
lire losses in Europe are the more
durable construction of buildings
ana the greater carefulness of the
people. Having less wealth. thew can
less afford to suffer loss by fire.

Tax Reform Sought
By Savannah Mayor

Savannah, Dec. 1.-Mayor r.
j. Oavant made the startling
statement today that Savannah's
revenues were hardly enough to
conduct one of the public work
departments properly for one year
and that a sweeping revision of
taxation is necessary for the next
year.
The Mayor advocated the Eng
lish system whereby the amount to
be paid is figured on the actual
income from the property, except
the business district where all
property is equally taxed at a
certain sum a front foot.

Vital Statistics Need
ed In Atlanta

Atlanta, Dec. l That one
fifth of all the babies born in
Atlanta died within the first
year, and that a careful and
complete birth register will go
far toward helping prevent this
wanton and unnecessary waste
of human life, are declared today
by leading health authorities
who urge that the city's vital
statistics be kept more carefully
and completely.
The first step they say in les
SEEMING infant mortality, is to
find out where and when and
how the babies die. While all
physicians are supposed to record
births under the present law, the
law is not complied with very
strictly, and the birth records up
to the present have been very
unsatisfactory.

reason is that Uncle Sam has

body to buy and eat and wear
home products, the Fort Nc

reason. has taken all it's grocery.

What State Editors are
Saying.
That Fifty Million Bond Issue

Pensacola News: 1t would be inter
esting 10 disinterested observer &c
watch what would happen TO a state il
everything that is proposed during SEES
sion of the Legislature should be adopted
The News believes in progressive meas
ures OF public policy, but any good thing
can be overdone. The proposal 10
bond the state OF Florida $50 600, 900 for
state system of brick roads is entirely
too eXtravagant 10 command general
support. There are thousands of PEG.
pie in Florida who would like 10 see a
stale highway system of practical kind
who cannot support this measure.
AT four per cent per annum the inter.
est on the bonds would be g, 600 600 a
year. And this would be perpetual, as
it takes no consideration of method 10
retire the bonds. Friends of the big
bond issue have estimated that it would
cost the taxpayers in the neighborhood
OF little more than a cent on a dollar
per year. This would mean a little
more than ten dollars per year for the
state highway alone for the man who
pays taxes on only 81 900 worth of prop
erly. AS ii will be necessary for a con
stiIutional amendment 10 be adopted TO
carry out the measure we are almost
certain that the people of the stale will
never vote TO tax themselves TO such an
extent for such a purpose.
In many counties the county conviCtS
are worked on the roads and in these
counties good roads have been estab-
liShed. We do not believe that in
these counties where good roads prevail
the people would like TO pay an enor-
nous tax TO help other backward coun.
ties TO build roads.
We fail TO see how the friends of the
$50, 900, 900 bond issue have reason 10 be-
lieve that The Legislature will pass it in
view of the fact that the last legislature
termed the S10,O00,0O0 bond proposal
for this purpose an air castle of an ex-
travagant ideaIst and killed it. Itseems
very reasonable TO suppose that the next
legislature will have about the same at
titude toward the $50, 900, 900 proposal.
The proposition means more than a
million dollars for brick roads for every
county in Florida. Inasmuch as it is
extremely doubtful whether any county
in the state would vote for bond issue
that heavy, when many counties already
have good roads, it would seem futile
10 submit such proposition 10 the
state at large.
However, when the legislature takes
the matter under consideration pracli
cal plan for system OF slate highways

God of our fathers, known OF old
Lord of our far-flung battle line
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine
Lord God of Hosts, be with US Set,
Lest we forget-leSt we forget!
The tumult and the shouting dies,
The captains and the kings depart;
Still stands thine ancient sacrifice
An humble and contGile heart,
Lord God OF Hosts, be with US Yet,
Lest we forget-leSt we forget!
Far called, our navieS melt away;
On dune and headland sinks the fire
Lo! all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nneveh and Tyre!
Judge OF the nations, spare US yet,
Lest we forget-leSt we forget!
If, drunk with sight of power, we loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee in
awe,
Such Boosting as the Gentiles use
Or lesser breeds without the law
Lord God OF Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
For heather heart that puts her trust
In rocking tube and iron Shard,
All valiant dust that builds on dust,
And guarding calls not on Thee 10
guard,
For frantic boasts and foolish word,
Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord!
Amen!

which he will recommend in his for.

an amendment which will permit incor.
