To Require Bonds
In Receivership Suits

Atlanta, March 16.-The pas
sage at the coming legislature
session of Georgia of laws to pro-
tect the life insurance companies
and similar organizations in the
state against the filing of ire
sponsible lawsuits by irreapon-
sible persons, will be strongly
urged, according to announce
ments made here.
The proposed change in the
law is one that would protect
business concerns, but at the
same time would not be a fence
behind which weak or impoerly
managed organizations could
hide. 1t would make it impos-
sible to throw a business concern
into the hands Of a receiver, with
out the giving Of an indemnity
bond by the petitioning creditors
amply sufficient to cover all pos
sible damages. It would prevent,
it is stated, the wrecking of legi-
innate business concerns, and
would help make Georgia a de-
sirable business state.
1t is declared that there is a
laxity in the present state insol-
vent laws, and that PRACTICAL all
the northern states have already
adopted measures similar to that
above described. The idea is one
that has been commended by
many Georgia editors, but it will
be placed before the legislature
this year in definite shape for
the first time.

Barrett OptOmiStiC
Over Conditions

Atlanta, Georgia, March 16.-
Current reports to the effect
that the country is in the throes
of a business slump do not bear
out my observations" said Presi-
dent Charles S. Barrett, of the
National Farmers Educational
and Cooperative Union of Ameri-
ca in Atlanta recently. Accord
ing to President Barrett the coun-
try is now settling itself for one
of the most prosperous periods
in it's history.
Il have visited more enter
prises from one end of the coun-
try to the other than ever before.
| have made personal investiga-
tons, talked with men at the
head of enterprises and have
seen the work they are doing. [
want to say with all the emphasis
possible that nowhere have I
found aught to feel discouraged
over. More of these enterprises
are prospecting and giving salts
faction than ever; we have had
as few, perhaps fewer, failures
than in any other time Of bust
ness endeavor.
Great strides are being made
along cooperative lines by the
farmers in all parts of the coun-
try allied with the National Far
mers Union, said President Bar
rett. The work Of bettering agri-
cultural conditions in every Sec
ton of the country is being con-
Quoted along persistent yet quiet
lines. The latest cooperative eff
fort of the Union is the publish
ing of The National Field, a
weekly, devoted to the interest of
the farmer from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, and from the st.
Lawrence to the Gulf. Started
a few short months ago, the pub
LEGATION is gaining momentum at
an astounding rate. The paper
is not a "money-getter". No
one is paid to solicit subscriptions.
At the last annual convention
held in Salina, Kansas, the mem
bers of the Union authorized the
publication of The National Field
and Immediately backed up this
action by personally soliciting
farmers everywhere for subscrip-
tons. AS a result from two to
four hundred new readers are
added to the lists daily and it
will be but a short time before

SOME >EAcIS CONCERNING BOB WARaOCk
 CANDIDATE FOR C6nGBESS

The truth some times hurts and especially the fellow that hates the light. A man who aspires to public office ought to h a ve such a record that his slogan would be, Turn on the light"
 An untruth some times hurts also. and especially if it's falsity is not brought to the light. h. as-much as there are someIfalse reports circulating concerning Mir. Warnock, and feeling that it IS right and just sthat the truth be known. we, the ministers of Magnolia, take pleasure in stat ing the following:
 We know M~. Bob Warnock to be a straight forward, | honorable gentleman. His political record places him on the right side of moral questions. His political colleagues in the legislature say that he was. while there, one of the most valuable and influential members and invariably on the side of the side of the best inter PSfS of his constituents.
 It has been rumored that MT. Warnoc is n Catholic. He states that heshasi never 50 much as been inside of a Catholic church. We, the ministers of Magnolia, assure the public that Mir, War nook is not a Catholic, -and fur ther that he could not be induced to stand for any legislation par tial to that or any other church.

a member of the railroad con- mission and is the present chair man, was in town this week see- ing his many friends and making new one, ne simply tells the people that this office belongs to them and the only way he knows to get it is to ask them for it.
 Prior to the time Mir, Mcknight was elected to the railroad com mission he served the people of his district in the senate and his record is before the people and not being attact by his opponents, he has always worked for the in- terest of the shippers. having been shipper for many years be fore going on the board, he states that he has sent back direct to the shippers during the past twelve months over six thousand dollars in the way of claims and now has fled in the masters off, ce over a million dollars worth of claims which he would like to be retained to finish up and which he promises to fight to a finish, besides push the cases now pend- ing he has fought for the two cent passenger rate and to his great satisfaction expects to see it go into effect inter state as we'll as state.
 It might pay you to look up his record before you cast your vote as experience counts in this of- flee.

who ~substantiated his statement with
data concerning the $50 students en-
rolled In the mathematics department.
In the report Professor Rothrock has
compiled the students are placed in
three groups-those whose fathers are
farmers, those whose fathers are en-
gagged in professions and those whose
fathers are engaged in the commercial
world. The students from the farm,
of whom there are % per cent, aver
aged S2.4 in their final examinations
as compared with 74.5 for the second
class and $3.50 for the third class.
The ability of the student from the

VISITED BY FIRE
Town of Hartford, Minnehaha
County, Sustaing a
Loss

Hartford, Feb. Fire early yester-
day morning completely destroyed the
Hartford opera house, "A structure
known as the Gage building, and
did considerable damage to the gen raj
store of FL. A. Engelcke 81 Co. For a
time the entire business section of the
town was threatened and an appeal for
aid vas sent to the Sioux Falls fire de-
partment, which, however. was can.
celed when the local fire lighters got
the blaze under control.
The fire started shortly after mid.
night in the restaurant located in the
Gage building. How it started is not
known but it ia presumed that grease
or oil in the kitchen caught fire and
communicated the flames to other in
hammable material in the room. The
blaze spread rapidly and within g
few minutes the entire building was
a mass of fire. which was quickly
communicated to the opera house.
All efforts to ave this building were
unavailing and the firemen devoted
their efforts to the Engelcke store. to
which building the flames had leaped
across the street. The fire here,
while doing considerable damage was
confined TO the roof. 1t was 9 o'clock
before the flames were completely
checked.
The losses at this time are not
known. The Gage building and opera
house were completely destroyed. but
it is understood both were we'll GOV.
cred by insurance. The loss to the
general store is small.
