The loss is only par tially covered by insurance. ‘ The blaze originated in a sjore room directly back of the office and before it could be curbed had spread into the factory and saw mill. Once it struck the highly inilamable stack of lumber, ■'the tire could not be checked, and the local tire department bent its efforts on saving the surrounding buildings. The Hodgson Oil Refining company was directly adjacent to the burning plant and the big oil tanks were for almost an hour in permanent danger. The heat at that time wa* terrific, and had tlu> oil caught it is almost certain that be enire portion of the city near the plant would have been destroyed. H. E. Martin, manager of tin* factory, stated that be estimated the losses as follows: Tlie plaid was valued at $15,000 and the machinery at a like amount. In addition to this, there were fifteen automobiles in the paint I, department, all of which were lost in , the blaze. Mr. Martin declares that on account x of the presence of cotton warehouses, j lumber yards and tlie oil factory in that vicinity, the fire insurance rating /that was given him was almost pro hibitive and while he made no defi nite statement it is understood that | tlie insurance will not exceed SIO,OOO.

I San Francisco, Tuesday, 25th. Dea r Friends: Although we are 3,000 miles away we have not forgotten you, nor our dear Georgia friends, neither the dearest spot on earth—our home, Winder. After leaving Chicago, we took the Canadian l’acitic for Banff. Lake Lou ise and Vancouver. When we reached Portland, the dividing line between U. S. A. and Canada, we got out, a tall pole on which flew the National flag. 1 walked up to put my right, hand against it and with my head uncovered said. “I am glad 1 am an American citizen, the greatest people and govern ment upon the earth.” The country alj the way, the C. P. H. R. is barren, no forest or streams, only stock raising. After reaching the rookies, the scenery was not only beautiful but inexpressibly wonderful, not equaled in N. A. ; not surpassed in Switzerland. Banff and Lake Louise are great resorts. I can not give you any conception of the beauty of Lake Louise. Vancouver as you know is the groat shipping point of Canada for China, India aiid Japan. Fine t line of steam ers cross the Pacific from this point. We took boat at Vancouver for Heat tie. Vancouver has a population of 275,000. Seattle 385,000. We are now at San Francisco, the greatest city on the Pacific coast, (175,000 population. This country is alarmed and worried over'the Chinese and Jap immigration. Nine out of ten of the farms are owned by these people; eight out of ten of school children are of these nationali ties. So wliat arc the Americans to do? What can they do. As soon as a Jap getH a little money he opens up In the most prominent place he can find, and as they live on nothing and sleep on the floor or back yajil. the Americans can pot cope with them in trade. They arc altogeth er unreliable. Yours. G W. DeLaPERIERE. • . ' Russell Will Stay In Judgeship Race Atlanta, August Ist.—Judge It. B.

I am not receiving much encouragement or that I contem plate quitting the rues*, is just the o|c posite from the true situation.
