A LOVELY LITTLE LADY.

The Atlanta papers all had tri-
butes to Mrs. George E. King, who
was laid to rest in West View Gene
terry Tuesday morning, but they were
all so incomplete. Mrs. King was
educated at the old S. M. F. College
IN Covlngton in class just ahead
of my own and lived near neighbor
to me IN Imam Park for many wears.
She was naturally of a cheerful dis
position and had everything to make
her happy.
She was dainty little blonde with
the most agreeable manners and cor
dial friendliness.
She Travelled extensively abroad
and wrote charming letters home rot
to mention some fine contributions
to Atlanta papers about such far a.
way and mysterious countries as the
land of the Midnight Sun.
She certainly loved her fellow man
especially her sister woman, and was
a pioneer in all movements for the
Improvement of conditions of work
ing girls. When the first lady writ
ing life insurance came to Inman
Park seeking patrons, Mrs. King
promptly insured her life although
ner many amused friends knowing
her husbands rating in Bradstreets,
wondered why she did so. She smiled
and said she was setting an example
for her younger sisters. She was not
only generous with money but her
spacious home in Atlanta and her
summer house in North Georgia were
always filled with guests. She loved
to see people enjoying themselves
and heartily delighted "to look into
happiness through another mans
eyes"
Countless loving friends will grieve
over the passing of Ida Simmons
King but will feel much consolation
in her seven lovely daughters who
remain to carry on her good deeds.

SIN these times of disquietude in
the world arising from the war in
Europe, many people are pleading
the law of necessity as an excuse for
wrong doing Such people condemn
the Germans very sharply for acting
upon the theory of necessity in in
ternational matters. The German
Chancellor justified the violation of
Belgium by saying it was necessary,
or, in other words, he claimed that
the interests of Belgium might be
sacrificed for the interests of Ger
many, thus assuming that German
interests were of higher and more
sacred quality than those of Belgium.
In like manner, he justified the sink
ing of the Lusitania, with all it's
helpless and non-combatant passen-
gers, as a necessity of war Of
course, such pleading is extremely
horrible, when viewed from the nor
NAL standpoint, and the whole world
has felt as much indignition at the
defense of the crime as for the crime
itself. The defense is as immoral as
the offense~
But let us not suppose the Ger
man militarists have proclaimed a
different doctrine from that asserted
by every man who pleads necessity
as an excuse for his wrongdoing The
theory is the same whether it be used
as an excuse for international crime
or as defense for personal immor-
atty. We cannot allow for one mo-
ment the idea that wrong is ever
necessary.
When once such theory of morals
is allowed, the moral law is in effect
totally set aside. It's majesty is
made to yield to some advantage of
an inferior nature and, when once
the inviolable majesty of the moral
law is lost, it is only a question of
convenience with each man as how
far and when he will obey it at all.
What one will regard as a compelling
necessity another will not perhaps
regard as SO constraining.
With one man the possession of an
imperlous appetite is sufficient excuse
for going on a debauch; he claiming
that he could not help it, that he was
obliged to yield to the impulse for
ntoxicants. Others will plead the
constraint of various weaknesses
Still, others will excuse themselves
by setting forth the necessity arising
from invincible circumstances.
Once the moral law is set aside
under a plea of necessity, what one
does is a mere matter of circum-
stance. There is no longer any fixed
principles in life, and conduct, from
day to day, is matter of uncertain
and varying opportunism.
There isneed for the proclamation
OF the inviolable authority of the NOR
al law. Such a proclamation is needed
at all times. and it is especially neces-
sary in time like that in which we
live. All men must be brought face
to face with the fact that righteous
ness is not matter of convenience,
but is itself q supreme necessity of
life, to which every suggestion of
comfort and consideration of ad-
vantage must give place"

OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS..
Importan, Meeting Yesterday.

A very important meeting OF the
committee on Usage Indian affairs wns
held Yesterday and once more the MID
Continent Oil & Gas association Is
demonstrating ITS usefulness 10 the oil
fraternity in general. This :ime, II was
dis covered that resolution extending
the trust period which now extends TO
1891, was TO come before a committee
OF the house OF representatives on
Wednesday of this week and would
likely be opposed by many who have
purchased tribal lands and are anxi-
Gus &c get possession OF same at the
earliest possible moment.
At the meeting yeterdny, the COM
mittee formulated and Gent strong
messages urging members of congress
from oil districts TO ask that the hear
Ing be postponed until n later date.
or until the oil men had an opportun-
ity 10 formulate their plans and ap-
pear before said committee. The oil
interests have so many heavy invest
ments In the Usage as to make II abso-
lutely> necessary that they be heard.
II goes without saying that every one
having a lease In the Usage is anxious
that II be extended, ana II is also
equally plain that II the trust period
Is extended II will result in much
higher prices being paid for leases on
the Unbiased part OF the Usage.

New Tax ISurcau

In order to, arrive at the require
ments OF the new tax laws and 10 give
service To the small oil producer. n
few OF the oil men, including George
II. Black, George Bole, i. G.. Walker
Jr., and others. have organized tax
bureau and have employed II. II.
Smith, who Is an expert attorney in
tax matters. and James Y. Duryca.
formerly accountant for the Waters
Pierce OIL corporation and late of the
Price & Waterhouse firm of account
ants. who will give their entire time
to the service OF the members of the
bureau.
This will enable the members OF
this bureau to determine what Is re-
quired under the tax law and to begin
making provisions for same at once.
II will probably be well patronized as
u meets a most urgent need. This
same plan liz being followed by oil
companies in the eastern states at this
time.
