TAKE IT TO THE POLLS.
Former President Talf is right
in saying that the time has come
when the question of the owner
ship, management and control of
the railroads must be settled by
vote at the ballot box.
The railroad brotherhoods have
smited upon a plan of administra
tion of the rail lines under which
the workers will share, wifTi the
government in the profits —and it
there are no profits all other forms
of labor and all business would be
forced to pay increased railroad
rates to make an exception of
railroad labor.
Tbe brotherhoods declare a ma
jority of the American people fav
or such a plan.
All right; if that is the ease, let
us have the Plumb plan, for this
is a democracy and the keystone
of the structure of a democracy is
the will of the majority.
But before we adopt the Plumb
plan let iik first find out whether
or not it really is desired by the
majority.
The only orderly, democratic
way to definitely ascertain the ma
jority’s attitude toward any pub
lic question is to submit it to a
popular vote.
That is what should be done in
Mi is instance, and of it ex-Presi
dent Taft says:
“The republican parly through
the leadership of Mr. Hays, cliair
uian of its national committee, by
resolutions of that committee last
winter, left no doubt where it must
stand on this issue. As Sir. Hughes
fought the Adamson law, so must
Ihe republican party tight this
plan, llut Mr. Hughes was embar
rassed in many states by weak
kneed republican candidates for
governor, for senator, and for con
gress, who flinched from the issue.
“Mo such trimmers must be
put on guard this time. The repub
lican party must take a flat-footed
issue ud fight it out. All who arc
act with the party on it are
against it. Let defeat come, if it
must, in the first clash. But let the
party fight on, for our whole econ
omic system of i*div>duaul initia
-li\e and industrial freedom is ?i
stake.
“Lel us hope that the democra
tic party, too, will condemn this
plan and leave the railroad men
and their supporters to run sepa
rate tickets in the presidential
election. If the democratic party
falters and seeks victory through
surrenders to false doctrine, it
will be dearly bought.”
Neither of the two major parties
can afford longer to ignore or to
temporize with the question of
'government ownership and tripar
tite administration and control oi |
the railroads.
Both must come out boldly and
lake a stand upon it cue way or
another.
And. if neither should do so.
there is no reason why the advo
cates of tlie plan should not make
the issue by putting up their own
candidates. Atlanta ' onstilution.

BUSINESS LIFE INSURANCE
Very surely life insurance as an
adjunct of going business protec
tion is coming to be as well rec
ognized as fire insurance long lias
been for the protection of tangible
property. The one is a safeguard
against losses by death of personal
experience and trade value as the
other is of losses by fire ot proper
ty value. There is nothing strange
in this. Men are yet living who can
remember when it was rather an
exception to carry fire insurance.
The value of its protection had to
be as laboriously demonstrated to
merchants as during the past ten
or fifteen years it has been to de
monstrate the value of partnership
firm and corporate protection by
life insurance upon the members
or keystone employes.
New York Life has just issued
an interesting bulletin on the sub
ject of business life insurance, for
tified with letters from many of
its own policyholders of that, class,
lit sums up some of the purposes of
[business life insurance as being as
[follows:
1. To provide cash to replace
.brains.
2. To thoroughly protect the
concern’s credit.
,'k To protect debts or obliga
tions.
4. To provide capital to bridge
over tTie unsettled period that fol
lows death and to compensate for
the loss of a master mind vital to
the business.
!i. To protect the endorsers of
the firm’s paper.
6. To create a surplus to buy out
a deceased partner’s interest.
Here revealed intangible values
in personality just as obviously
veal as property values but they
cannot he included in any state
ment of condition as being assets,
however much they are recogniz
ed iu banking and business circles
as having the most vital value.
Having this value there arc liabi
lites attaching of course. Life in
surance steps in at this point, cov
ers the liabilities and converts the
lives into what might be called net
cash assets convertible into sur
plus instantly in the event of
death. The life policy perofrms
lore exactly the same office that
ihe five policy performs for the
tangible property.
With the better organization of
milking exchanges credit has
■omc to play an enormously
greater part in business promotion
ban formerly. W ith the extension
if credit has come also very much
i Hire rigid rules for its security
and for its basis. That policies of
business life insurance provide a
noteetiou acceptable to banks is
*pro\ od l>y some of the letters in
the New York life’s bulletin. This
applies as well to tin' credits ior
purchases made in Ihe course ol
business. Where every valuable
life in a concern is protected the
knowledge of the fact is bound to
increase confidence in its ability to
weather any crisis caused by death
l"util this vast market for busi-
ness insurance lias boon establish-,
ed, supplied ami its renewal made
just as regular a process as tlie re
newal of tire insurance the Held of
the life insurance agent is practi

FROM STATE DEPARTMENT
OF AGRICULTURE.
Atlanta, August (Special) br
ent advice to farmers to hold
heir cotton is contained in a reso
ution offered by Chairman Tho
\ as J. Shackelford of the finance
ommittee, and unanimously adop
ted by the executive board of the
merican Cotton Association, now
(inducting its membership cam
aig* with headquarters here.
Always, at this time of the year
IVhen the new crop is beginning to
come in, it is pointed out there is a
trong bear movement in the effort
o acquire at low prices the cotton
hat for one reason or another, is
homily rushed on the market.
It is to warn the farmers and
thers against being misled by this
ear movement that the executive
ommittee of the Association adop
ed the following resolution:
“We earnestly urge that the
otton farmers and the holders of
otton, be not stampeded by pro
aganda now being issued by spe
ulators and parties who desire to
uy cheap cotton, hut that they
land steady and refuse to sell
heir staple at present prices.
“This Association deplores the
rganized effort now being made
o depress and send the price of
otton t-o the bottom. In spite of
lie fact that cotton goods have
treat ly advanced, cotton prices
ave gone down twenty Hollars to
wenty-fivc dollars per hale. Today
he staple, measured by the price
f manufactured cotton goods, is
\ trinsically worth more than
hirty-five cents per pound, and
ven a1 1 bat price it is the cheap
st commodity being sold in the
.orld’s market. As soon as the
.merican ('otton Association is
ullv organized with its million
lembers it will immediately begin
n organized fight in behalf of
otton.”
Bmsklent J. 8. Wannamaker of
he American Cotton Association,
nd Chairman J. .1. Brown of the
toard of Directors, H corgi a Divi
ion. not only fully indorse the for
cing resolution, but strongly urge
he producers of this State to heed
lie advice to the letter, and not to
•
ell until the association has the
pportunity to put before the
ountry its plans and purposes.
