We wonder il lbs reduction in tbe school land appropriation will disband the university foot ball team? Gee. Wheeler will resign from con* grees and retain bis commission in tbe army. He says bo will resign In a few weeks; that bo preferred army life and fell as young as when a boy. He hopes soon to bo old enough to make a good soldier. Tbe democrats might make trouble for McKinley by putting up Joo Wheeler lor president In 1900, with some good northern democrat for second place. General Wheeler, by tbs way, is tbe only warrior-congress man who refused to draw bie congres sional salary while in tbe service-* Minneapolis Times, Ssnatoi Chandler would "dislike to bavs the race problem come.into poli tics again,” but does not see how it can be kept out. He believes "some notice will have to bo taken of what has bsppened in North and South Car. ollna” And why not in Illinois, where the constitution was nullified and tbe governor threatened to‘‘shoot to pieces with Galling guns” colored citisens from Alabama who sought the right of working near tbe former home of Ab raham Lincoln?—New York World. The Savannah News says a North Carolina negro named Hardee has solved the rsce prob'em, so far as it applies to himself. He owns a farm, which ho purchased by bis own efforts, upon which he has a good dwelling, several good horses, a drove of cattle, a number of hogs, sheep and goats; be has a neat little bank account and bis note is readily discounted at tfte bank whenever be wishes to make an in vestment. He taketi absolutely no in terest io politics, never attempts to fores himself into social equality with the whites, attends to bis own busi ness, pays bis debts and respects bis neighbors. Mr. Blalock’s Position. Mr. Blalock was treading dangerous ly near the line of demagogy in bis speech on Tuesday on tbe school ap propriation, when he made an issue between town and eoontry, and in veighed against the former. He seems to regard it as the heaven given and inalienable right of 117 Georgia coun ties to be supported by the other twen ty counties, and to resent as imperiia nonce ths desire of the twenty counties to be relieved of at least a part of their burden of taxation. If the conditions were reversed—if tbe country counties were paying into the state treasury more money than they got back out of il; if the country uuuuiies were contributing from 11) to 50 per cent, of their school taxes to the support of schools in. cities—the cry ol protect that-would go up from Mr. Blalock would craok the akiea; and it would be a just protest, too. Gan it be possible that Mr. Blalock thinks it right that the 117 counties should be perpetual pensioners upon tbe twenty counties because they have tbe power to outvote the latter ia the legislature? There is no reason for any controversy between town and country. Tbe former is not asking for privileges, indulgences or favors. All that is desired is just treatment, such as both town and country eswntjes have a right to expect from thw legis lature—Savannah News. Peace Jubilee.

It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, ofOonnecticut, the particulars of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this stance eclipsed all previous dividend results: p.ia How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash, he did this for fifty-four years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,283. * Issued March 5,1845. Amount $5,000. Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan. Original insurance in 1845,-U Dividend additions paid in 1898,. ,la,UZo.w Amount of death claim 54 Premiums paid by insured- o>ow- Realized to estate over premiums paid- • • • • $5,888 00 Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2J) per cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually trom vo,w at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94. , The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent. of all tbe 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*.four. He appreciated the newer of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result o. Eis 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. JL. W. HILL, Suecial Aefent.
