ultimately, the result might be found to have been prejudiced thereby.
 There is however, more immediate danger that the incorporate talk LOW being inoulged in may again infiane passion in Ireland and lead to re- newed violence. In such an event the resentment in Great Britain would break out into conflagration. Or if their should be sudden breaking away without settlement, there is al once the risk of adopting measures which would in the long run add to the difficulties of ultimate settle ment.
 Now is Ireland's opportunity. Will she close with 1t? Judging from De Nalera's speeches the answer would Nappear to be in the negative. But 1t is difficult to believe he Is serious in interposing impossible demands again at this critical moment. If he thinks he can improve on Lloyd Georges offer by raising issues wherewith to bargain, he is laboring under fatal delusion. forSthe Brit ish government would not be sup ported by the people in further con sessions

Will PreserUe Stage Coach Now
 Fifty Years Old
By Associated Press

New York, August 20--A move- ment is afoot to preserve the lar- sest stage coach in the country, 50 years ago the pride of this section.
 The giant coach, capacle of accom- modating 120 persons, is decaying Tn Brooklyn. Cost of reconstruction has been estimated at $5,000.
 When trolley cars were only a dream, Henry Hamilton, a prosper ous liveryman, was operating a string of coaches in the Williams burg section. Chowder parties then were popular and clubs complained that they couldn't get coach big enough. So the vehicle was built.
 1t was drawn by 20 horses and so long was the equpage that when a ferry was reached, IS of the horses were unhitched and waited for the craft to make second trip. Be- sides the driver. there was man to operate a brake on hills. Inside and out 1t was decorated with oil paint ings.
 In 1876 the coach was exhibited at the centennial exposition.

Hackleburg, August co.-tspeciaI) w. M. Toll, timber inspector for the Illinois Central railroad, has been in tkis community looking over the spruce pine, which Is very abundant throughout this section. Mir.

 He has been associated with c. P Lunsford, one of the old settlers of Marion county, and a man who is familiar with the timber supply Of north Alabama. The investigation shows an estimate of 75,o00.00o to 100, 100000 feet of spruce pine that would be available for shipment or use In radius of eight miles.

RAIN INSURANCE
 GAINS FOOTHOLD
 IN UNITED STATES
Big Leagues Insure Saturday, Sunday and Holiday Play ing Dates Against
 Wet Grounds
By Associated Press

New York, August 20.-The Brisish custom of taking out weather insur- ance has acquired strong foothold
 in the United States
 Five major league baseball clubs this season have thus safegua-ded themselves on all of their. Saturday Sunday and holiday playing dates. while many minor league magnaues are similarly protecting their ex- chequers.
 More than s1,5Oo.Oo0 was under written in rain insurance for the last Fourth of July. it is estimated. Fair weather was general, and less than sloo,o0 was paid policy holders. La ! Dor Day is expected to break the July record.
 British company underwro.e a s75o.o 900 rain insurance policy for Tex Rickard as protection against -inth- cial setbacks which the elements might have caused on July 2. the day of the Dempsey Carpenter bout. The premium of thls policy was report ed to have been $75,000. Colleges Insure Colleges also have begun to insure against rainy Saturdays during tn:

the example or Lloyd GeorSe ana DS Nalera should descend to the realm of realities.
 Smuts Letter
 General Smuts' letter is impressive. The general goes straight to the heart of things by pointing to the division of the Irish people as the real difficulty. He advises the south of Ireland to accept the governments offer and to trust to good will and economic interest, ultimately to bring the north into an all-Irish helm.
 But De Valera had received and considered that letter before he re- piled to the prime minister, so that presumably the generals advice had but little effect. Since the publica tion of the Sim Feins meeting in Dublin has certainly not improved the chances of pacification. De Va lera has nothing but bitterness and rancor to pour upon the troubled waters. His statements. however, eX- pressive of Irish aspirations. are not applicable to a situation demanding practical statesmanship.
 Meantime the British people are perturbed. They ardently desire peace and reconciliation and are willing to sanction any conclusions which may be reached within the conditions laid down in Lloyd Georges offer. but nevertheless there is some feeling of resentment. 1t is felt that an indorsement of the offer involves on their part a good deal oi elf-mortification. The offer palli- tates if it does not justify the Sim Fein excesses. The lead of the King has contributed to the stilling of their opposition for the moment and is shielding the government from the adverse criticisms which might have been levelled at it.
 Protracted HagGling But it would be very wise because of that. for the Irish leaders to in dulge in a policy of protracted hag- gling or provocative theorizing. Ir the event of plebiscite being taken

football season. and state and county fairs are likewise taking up the pras- tice. Underwriters report that horse racing promoters and owners of boats used for holiday excursions are tn sir biggest clients. In the winter they insure ice skating rinks on the 'em perature remaining below freezing.
 Summer resort hotels insure them selves against bad weather over week ends. and department stores do the same thing for days on which they have advertised sales expected to attract particularly large numbers of purchasers
 The insurance companies charge premiums ranging from 21s to 25 CT cent of the policy, and even higher in rare instances Rates are based on the average rainfall in any locality over a 10year period and on the month in which the event insured is to take place.

NAB ANOTHER STILL

Meridian, Miss. August 20 - (Spe- al.)-United States Deputy Marshal Eshe and Prohibition Agent Boy led raiding party in the seizure of a big moonshine 'still about 12 miles west of Meridian, late yesterday. W. q. Blagot. white man. was arrested in connection with the plant. He was released on bond of $500 by United States Commissioner Peter Stubble- field here.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-08-21

Ing the Irish negotiations are to be taken at their face value, the pros pect for peace is remote.
 Prime Minister Lloyd George is found to have made an offer of measure of self government. De Va lera is found to have treated it with contumely. Lloyd George has replied in principle that he has said the las: word, Sir James Craig has declared that Ulster at this stage merely wants to be left alone.
 All of which brings us to the fact the peace in Ireland depends now more than ever upon lrishmen. It depends upon them either separately or in cooperation agreeing to man Either course is now open to them.
 British Offer
 The British government has offered d scheme of dominion self-govern- ment subject only to conditions i1n- posed by geography and has also of fered to assist in harmonizing their common interests should Irishmen so desire. The next step obviously i3 with Ireland.
 If De Valera and his friends were to accept the principles embodied in Lloyd Georges letter, or if Sir James Craig were to express without stip- ulation 8 willingness to meet De Na- lera and to discuss with him Irish government in the light of the new facts, then, in either event, road to further accommodation might be found. But while De Valera insists upon the impossible and Craig im- poses conditions which make meet ing of him and De Valera out of the question, no sensible advance can be made. The position is much the same as when Lloyd George imposed an abandonment of Ireland's claims to separation as condition to meet ing De Valera. Directly this con dition was withdrawn, a meeting was arranged and the door was opened to peace. Sir James Craig should follow
