AN INSTANTANEOUS «
ESTATE
The whole civilized world long
ago acknowledged the worth of
life insurance. It is the only cre¬
ator of an instantaneous estate
for the average man,—the almost
universal man.— who, without
its help, although he and his
loved ones may have lived in
comfort, must leave them, as
their only legacies, the yok» of
poverty and a burden of debt.
It is to him, the average man,
that a Twenty Payment Life
policy, with its low cost, appeals,
and it is with him that it is so
general a favorite.

Flag Raising At Ellijay
The flag raising at the Ellijay
Institute was a very appropriate
exercise for the fourth of July,
and also the present time while
our country is on the verge of
war. The program was opened
with prayer from Rev. G. B,
Hurlbutt, after which a s'>rgthat
fitted the occasion was sung.Jdi
rected by Prof. Grand berry. The
Misses Beasy Sisters, of the ‘Al¬
kahest Lyceum System, of Atlan¬
ta, with their violins added much
to the music.
The history of the flag given
by Miss Bernice Teem, was very
interesting and educational
Then the address b y
Prof. George Godard was enjoyed
by the large crowd and showed
his splendid talent and ability
for such occasions.
The flag was raised by Mrs.
Jennie Gamage, who has been
the leader in getting up the pro¬
gram, and to her and those that
contributed so freely to the flag
we owe the splendid occasion.

The Railroads of Georgia are engaged exclusively in the manufacture and sale
of freight and passenger transportation. The transportation is manufactured out'of
steel, and iron, and coal, and lumber, and crossties, and brick, and stone, and con¬
crete, and human brawn and brain.
The selling price of this manufactured article — transportation — was arbitrarily
fixed and promulgated in the year 1880 by the then newly organized Railroad Com¬
mission of the State of Georgia. The Railroads of Georgia are today operating under
MUCH LOWER than the rates fixed by the Commission in 1880.
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A REVISION OF RATES UPWARD SINCE 1880.
Has there been an advance in the cost of raw materials which enter into the

There has! Below we present a table of 25 necessary articles in daily use by
every railroad in Georgia, showing prices actually paid during the months of August,
1914, January, 1916, and March, 1916, and a fourth column showing the percentage
of increase in prices actually paid by the Railroads of Georgia. The average increased
cost of the 25 articles of daily use is 77.71 per cent, and much of it is paid to Georgia
producers of the articles.

IMPORTANT NOTE:—In compiling the above figures, the percent In March

divided by the number of railroads affected. The figures In the last column j l are, there
fore, not based on the figures shown In the first and third columns above, outotand
Ing contracts by many of the railroads.
There has not been any decrease in the price of any article, iiently the
above, increases has not been offset, but are NET.
Previous to the establishment of the 1880 freight tariff the Railr of Georgia
paid state taxes ONLY, the Constitutional Tax of five mills. The Ratlfd of Georgia ifut
now shall pay ‘ city, county AND state taxes, which is a tremendous increase taxes,
we lall have more to say concerning taxes at a later date.
The above table do,es not take into consideration the greatest advatree in the cost
sent of manufacturing indisputable transportation—and facts-and the most important one—LABOR. We shall pre¬
figures concerning this important malter ar a later date.
The people of Georgia expect and are entitled to transportation.- It is a FUN¬
DAMENTAL BUSINESS NECESSITY. The service MUST be supplied. FAIR com¬
pensation should be paid for that service. Such payment is gpod Business morals and
will enable the railroads to render GOOD service, to which the people are entitled.
A DECLARATION OF POLICY.
It is not and will not be the policy of the Railroads of Geor¬
gia to propose any system of rates which would unjustly discrim¬
inate against the Georgia producer in favor of producers located
without the state. Should this principle appear to be violated by
any technical construction of our petition we give assurance that
we will not propose, nor will we attempt to adopt, in actual
practice, any rates at variance with the same.
Intrastate rates should and must be made to conform to interstate rates. The re¬
vision of Georgia freight rates now proposed simply conforms to the principles fol¬
lowed by the Interstate Commerce Commission in its long and short haul order, issued
in compliance with Federal Law. No unjust discrimination of any character whatso¬
ever is contemplated, nor would such discrimination be tolerated.
