LiGrand Power, who was for eight
years labor conimisrioner of Minne
sota, dropped some hot shot into tba
camp of the calamity howlers in the
course of hi? testimony before the in
dustrial commission it Washington
the other day. He di-ehirnl that a<
greatt r perct n'age I farmers now |
own their own land than fifty year*
ago; that the farmer who is in debt
today has ten times the opportunity
to discharge his obligation that the
farmer at the beginning of the century
bad; t hat speculation in grain does
not effect prices except temporarily,
but that prices iu grain and cotton are
governed by the production of the
small farms; that farmers themselves
speculate largely and “are often the
lambs who are shorn in the stock ex
changes ’ “Stop the farmers from
gambling, and you will stop it a 1 !.
I brer-fourths of the money lost in
gambling is lost by farmers,” said Mr.
Power. These statements by Mr.
Power will naturally amuse a great
deal of resentment; but the man as
serts that he knows what he is talking
about.

“Do yon smoke T” asked the middle

to light a cigar. “Have a cigar ?” he
said a! -' ntniindedly, as ho scratched a
match. The yonng man took the cigar
and bit off the end.
“These are very mild,” ended ths
speaker, presumably for the benefit of
his conscience—“very mild, and won’t <

The New Orleans Picayune discuss
ing the extra session of the Alabama
i Legislature, says : "Senator Morgan’s
term iu the .Senate will expire in 1901,
and his successor will have to be elect
ed nt the next regular session of the
legislature Through his influence
with the negroes and Populist?, as a
result rtf preventing any important
change in the constitution, it i- hoped
by his friends that a legislature can be
chosen that will defeat Morgan, and
send Johnston to the Senate in hit
stead. The entire controversy in Ala
bama Democratic politics today is over
questions of personal political schemes.
All the great interests of the state are
to bo made subservient to personal
political ambitions, and just now the
d -magogues are in the lead.

THE '
MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO,
OF NEW YORK.
Breaks The Dividend Record.
It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa-
I ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the particulars |
jof which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in-
I stance eclipsed all previous dividend results:
j Mr. Banks was insured for $5,000 00
| The dividends amounted to 12,028.00
Paid to the estate. $17,028.00
How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash, and
he did this for fiftv-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi
dends in p;ivinent of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these
for Ins benefit. Here are the particulars:
Policy No. 1,233. issued March 5, 1845. Amount $5,000.
Age4o. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan.
j OrLina'i insur in'e in 1>45 $7,000.
: Dividend additions pud in 1- 12,028.00
Amount of death claim $17,038,00
I 54 Premiums paid by insurevl 8,640.00
Realized to estate over premiums paid SB.BBB 00
Beim; nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2| ) per
cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from $5,000
at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94
The dividend additions pai-l to the estate wcrelffi) per cent, of all the premiums
paid for the insurance.
Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings
Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety Hour. He appreciated the
power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of
his method of investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy
holder in any other company in the world.
For best plans of insurance please consult me.

LAHO POOR.
A Schema to Give Every Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Puor. i
Mic. f iHTOit; Some years ago I took an I
idea that land was the safest investment 1
that a man could make in Georgia, and as •
a consequence, I am now land poor; have
more than I can profitably make use -of,
and consequently want to get rid of some,
or all of it, and I have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
I will say, in the first plaSe, that the
land is the best in Monroe county, its fine
ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and Is the best tor
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county. There arc a number of
tenant houses on the place, and a home
recently built that cost me over $3,000 to
build. The land, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 per acre-saying
altogether, about $lO per acre, without
improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will
average the whole place at $lO per acre,
in the following way : I will have the
entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into
50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
50acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 to another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as the case may be,
the entire quantity to be drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quantity of land to be put in a hat or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a fair chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their money, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at far less than cost
The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city
of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is
adapted to market gardening, and for
northern people who know bow to w’ork,
it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of
energetic citizens.
It is all together, and would make a fine
settlement, having the best of pastures,
Water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best
place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed
itor of the Call will vouch for what I
say.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
tages, and communicate with me at
Barnesville, before going into the matter,
assuring them that I mean what 1 say.
I have also a farm of 50 acres near
Barnesville for sale,on good terms.
In addition to the terms offered above, I
liTVi c m hi'led t > make the terms‘T pay
ment in four annuai payments without
interest, which is tantamount to putting
the price of the land very low. The
titles to the land have been in the posses
sion ot one or two parties for years, and
have never been questioned and arc as
go >d as gold.
