LARKIN. One of the fundamental principles announced In the Declaration of In dependence Is that governments de rive their just powers from the consent of the governed. How can the polltt <^1 condition of women be reconciled with this? Government In the United States has power to tax women who hold property; to divorce them from their husbands; to fine, Imprison and execute them for certain offenses. Whence do these governments derive their power? They are not Just, es they are not derived from the consent of the women thus governed. Govern ments decree to women In some states half their husbands' property; In oth ers one-third; In some a woman, on her marriage, is made to yield all her projterty to her husband; In others.- to retain a portion, or the whole. In her n hands. Whence do governments derive the unjust power of thus dis posing of property without the con sent of the governed? The democrat ic principle condemns all this as wrong and requires the equal political rep resentation of all rational beings. Children, Idiots and orimitisls during the time of sequestration are the only fair .exceptions. The case is so plain that 1 might close It here. But It Is Interesting to Inquire how so obvious a decision has lyen so evaded as to leave to women no political rights whatever. The question has been asked from time to time In more countries than one: How can obedience to the laws be re quired of women when no woman has either actually or virtually given any assent to any law? No plausible an- wer has, as far as I can discern, been offered# for the good reason that no plausible answer can be devised. The most principled democratic writers on governments Have on this Mubject sunk Into fallacies as dis graceful as any advocate of despotism ha* adduced. In fact, they have thua sunk from being for the moment advo cates of despotism. Jefferson says: •Were our state a pure democracy, In which all the Inhabitant* should meet together to transact all their business, there would yet be excluded from their deliberations: Infants, until arrived at years of discretion. 2. Women who, to prevent depravation of moral*, could not mix promiscuously In public meet ings of men. Woman’s lack of will and property Is more like the true cause of her exclusion from the rep resentation than that which Is actu ally set down against her. As If there could be no means of conducting public affair* but by promiscuous meeting, as If there would be more danger In promiscuous meetings for political business than In such meet ing for worship, for oratory, music, for dramatic entertainments, for any of the thousand transactions of civ ilized life. One thing Is pretty clear—that all those Individuals whose Interests are Involved In those of other Individual* may be struck off without Inconve nience. In this light women may be regarded the Interest of almost all of whom are Involved either In that of their fathers or In that of their hus band*. The word almost In Mr. Mill** second sentence rescues women from the exclusion he proposes as long ns there ure women who have neither husbands nor fathers. His proposi tion remain* an absurdity. The true democralc principle Is that no person's Interest can be ascertained to be Iden tical with those of another person. This allows the exclusion of none but Incapable*. The Inetrest of women who imve fathers and husband* can never be Identical with their*. While there 1* a necessity for laws to protect women against their husbands and fathers, this statement Is not worth another word. Home who desire that there should be on equality of proper ty between men and women oppose representation on the ground that po litical duties would be Incompatible with the other duties which women have to discharge. The reply to this Is that women are the best Judges here. Got! has given time and power for the discharge of all duties, and If He had not, It would be for women to decide which they would take, and which they would leave. Rut their guardian* follow the ancient fashion of deciding what Is best for their wards, and the best friends of half the human race peremptorily decide for them as to their rights, their duties, their feel ings, their power. In all these cases the |H*rsons thus cared for feel that the abstract decision rest* with them selves; that though they may be com pelled to stibm'.:, they need not ac quiesce. It Is pleaded that half of the human race docs acquiesce In the de cision of the other half, as to their FIRE COMPANIES SEND REP OR TS TO THE ST A TE Semi-Annual Statements Showing Condition Being Made to Comptroller General Wright.

The women of Xew Jersey went to the polls nnd voted at stale elections—1797-1SOO. The general term. Inhabitant, stood unqualified as it Will again, when the true democratic prin ciple comes to be fully understood. A motion was made to correct the Inad vertence, anti It waa done, as a matter of course, without any appeal, as far as I could learn, from the persons about to be Injured. Such acquiescence proves nothing but degradation of the injured party. It Inspires the same emotion of pity ns the suppllrutlon of the freed slave, who kneels to his mas ter to restore him to slavery, that he may have his nnlmnl wants supplied without being troubled with human rights or duties. Acquiescence like thla is un argument which cuts the wrong way for those who use It. But this ac quiescence Is only partial, and to give any semblance of strength to the plea —for one, I do not acquiesce. I de clare that whatever obedience I yield to the laws of the society In which I live Is a mntter between not the com munity and myself, but my Judgment nnd my will. Any punishment Indict ed on me for the breach of the law I should regard as so much gratuitous Injury, for to those laws I have never, actually or virtually, nssented. I know that there are women In thla country who agree \\ Ith me In this. The plea of acquiescence Is invalidated by us. It Is pleaded that by enjoying the protection of some laws women give their nesent to all. This needs but a brief answer. Any protection thua con ferred Is. under woman's circum stances, a boon beatowed at the pleas ure of those In whose power she Is; a boon of any sort Is no compensation for the privation of something else. The truth Is that while there Is much said about the sphere of woman, two wlde- Iv different notions are entertnlned of what Is meant by the phrase—the nar row nnd to the ruling party the more DICKEY HIES UP RELIANCE AGENCY Jantea I,.

Mr. Dickey succeeds In the manage ment for thla state the drm of M(Hedge * Baxter, who recently resigned, and who have represented the company since It began business In Georgia, fnptnln Mllledge and R. B. Baxter will both remain with the Reliance nnd will devote all their time to deld work. Three Inaurance companies of other states this week Announced their In tention of entering Georgia and It Is probable that all of them will be rep- resented at Atlanta In a very short time. The Mississippi Home Insurance Company of Vicksburg Is one. It Is nn old established company of good reputation and waa not Involved In the San Francisco conflagration. The Xatlonal Lumber Insurance Company of Buffalo, X. Y., has llled Its Statement with the Georgia Insurance department. It lias $'.’00,000 capital ii’1'1 $50,000 surplus, with total assets of $253,694. The Dixie Fire Insurance Company "f Greensboro, X.

The Ilhxle started nhntit a month ago on a larger scale than has heretofore been attempted by South ern Are companies, nnd Its Strang hack ing assures It a successful future.
