you would have majority. II you put

people arc solid against II, and II
you don't hear moro complaints about

sents the special privilege it is own

Presumably the question is being
agitated because of the growing grip
of the railroads on the newspapers
of the South.

are a dangerous influence in an,

prominent young man. The adula-
ton and fattery whicn came her
way was beyond her widest dreams
in the dull days when she had
planned this very COUP.
News of the engagement reached
the press at at eaf;y hour after
Barstowe, sr.. had announced it at
Jeanne's dinner dance. and all of
the following day Jeanne was be-
sieged by society reporters. news
photographers. even mrvie cafera
men. who wat ,hed for her comings
and goings around the hotel in tire
hopes of catching the young mil
route to some of the social func-
tions which were gotten UP hastily
in their honor.
Jeanne was charmingly gracious
to all requests, but showed just the
proper shade of reluctance and re-
serve. The consensus of opinion
among the news writers Except the
Oldest and most sophisticated. who
smiled wisely was that Barstowe's
fiancee was a beautiful and cul-
tured young woman OF unquestion-
able social antecedents, who was a
trifie embarrassed by the limelight
Of publicity. but gracious enough
to deny no one.
The afternoon papers ran large
stories about the approaching we'd
ding. with photographs of Jeanne
and Victor Barstowe. Jeanne was
increasingly thankful that one OF
her first moves on coming to New
York had been a visit to the most
fashionable and expensive photog-
rapher in town. The result was an
undeniably lovely likeness OF her
which shone forth radiantly despite
the handicap of newspaper repro
duction. The photograph Of Bar
stowe was a snapshot caught by a
camera man at a boat race, and
showed vic. handsome in white fan
nels and cap. lounging at the rail OF
his fathers yacht.
All day the telephone rang with
messages of congratulation. The
bell boys at the hotel culled a small
fortune bearing flower boxes to the
bride-to-be. There were handsome
gifts from Jeanne's most intimate
acauaintances, and also from many
of Barstowe's friends whom she
had met only casually.

in the afternoon. looked over the
aggregation and opened her eyes
