Competency In the Wa» of mu Ia«»r
iiccc Policy.
From the Philadelphia Record.
It isa fact that the more danger c*
death there is in a man’s trade the
smaller chance be has to leave to his
wife and children a competence in the
way of life insurance. It is often the
case, 'too, that men engaged In these
extra hazardous callings receive the
smallest wages. While such things
work a hardship to workmen, any
other state of affairs can not be
pec ted. Life and accident insurance
companies are not charity institutions.
While life insurance companies vary
their rates according to a man’s voca
tion, nearly all of them base their vari
ations upon the classifications of the
accident companies. The latter make
a study of the chances' of accident tc
life and limb In all trades and profess
ions and tbelr classifications are inter
esting as showing what dangers beset
the paths of workers in the world.
All men are divided into five classes,
the preferred, the ordinary, the medi
um, the hazardous and the extra h&z
ardous, and the rates charged run iu
proportion of 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40.
Different companies vary these rates
in a few instances, many life compa
nies refusing to insure extra hazardous
oases at any figure. In such a category
falls the man or woman who works in
a powder or dynamite factory, or is
regularly employed in the handling of
high explosives, who is at any moment
likely to go skyward in a chariot of
fire. The man who turns the brake on
a freight train, whose life may at any
time be dashed out by a headlong fall,
a burned bridge, a collision by night
or a low bridge,'cannot get a life insur
ance policy for hie mother or sisters.
These men are not often married. The
raau who bolds the lever in the engine,
and his left-hand man, who fills the
furnace and rings the bell, are both in
the most dangerous class, but the life

absentees. I read from the original:
1 should vote against the proposed
change of the rules, and should vote
•for the motiopjo proceed to the .con-#

with Senator Allison, who is at liberty
to vote to make a quorum.”
Signed, and dated January 21,1891
~ I have been opposed, Mr. President,
unalterably opposed from the begin
ning to the adoption of the cloture for
many reasons, suffi-ieut and satisfac-
to y tome that need not now and here
be rehearsed.
There are those that hear me w ho
know that many months ago, when
occupying the chair in the absence of
Hie Vice Present, 1 resisted many
urgent importunities and many stenu-
ous solicitations to co-operate in that
direction by methods that I then be
lieved and still believe were revolution
ary and subversive of the fundamental
principles of constitutional govern
ment. I have not since seen any oc
casion to change or modify my con
victions.
I- am, as I always have been, in favor
of a just and impartial election law,
directeJ alike against force and fraud,
non partisan, and applicable equally
to all parts of the nation. The meas
ure heretofore under consideration, in
many of its details did not receive the
sanction of my judgment.
"itappeared to me to-be cumbrous,
complicated, obsecure in many of its
provisions, and difficult of application.
It subordinated, the judiciary to politi
cal control, and opened the Treasury
to indefinite expenditures without re
quisite supervision, and in violation, in
my judgment, of the spirit if not the
letter of that provision of the constitu
tion which declares that “no money
shall be drawn from rite Treasury but

such a measure, in my absence, with
out the amendments which T regarded
as essential to prevent dangers not less
distinct than those it was intended to
obviate, I reserved tfie right in my ab
sence to act with those Republicans
who favored the consideration of other
imjtortaut measures unless theSe modi-
fient ions were made. ...

to have ray vote counted against the
passage of the election bill, and in this
statement I am confident that I shall
be confirmed, and.corroborated by the
recollection* of the Senator from,Iowa.
I am as ready now, as I have.always
been, to proceed with its consideration,
and with the modifications ?nd amend
mental have indicated, to hnpport it
to the end. ,
I have beeim Republican^ Mr. Pres

and l have voted without variableness
or shadow of Turning for every Repub
lican candidate since, that time,.except
in 1SG0, When being a resident cf a Ter

Abraham Lincoln.
During that period I li .ve never es

never refused to advocate a cause that
( believed to be right because it was
unpopular; and I h:»ve recently ex

not long entertniued am! to which J

Many of the evils from which farmers

There are mv-y points of a similar na

Give the fanner a’ fair field, and, il
worthy, he will succeed. Multitudes
of Intelligent farmers are, even In thepe
rather dull times, doing a fairly pros
perous business under the laws of
which so much .complaint Is made.
This fact does not prove that all the
laws now in force are just to the farm
ing interest. Some of them are mani
festly unjust. But the fact that so
many farmers succeed is proof that the
laws discriminating against the npal
interest, as some of them do, are not
insuperable obstacle. The character

Here’s a remarkable story.
It has the endorsement of two men
most reliable. If the whole state of
Georgia was searched over, no two
gentIemen>of more undoubted veraci
ty could be found.
They are both sans pear et sans re-
proche.- *-
. But here’s to the story.
. Tiie fast mail ou the Georgia railroad
yesterday was one hour and a half late
in arriving in Atlanta.
This train has such an excellent
recurd of keeping its schedule to the
minute, that ’tlssaid the people along
•h.* road set their watches !>v ir.
There were two causes for the late
ness of the train yesterday.
One was that it was about three-
quarters of an hour late In leaving
Augusta.
Tiie other was—well here it comes.
-The fan train was rattling »!ong
towards Covington trying to make up
*omeot the lost time. When about
fire miles from the pretty liitR; city It
was noticed that some irackraeu were
making windmills ol themselves, try
ing in a manner most violent to flag
the train down.
The engineer quickly reversed his
brakes, closed tiie throttle and the
train came to a sudden halt.
Tiie passngerse quickly piled out of
the'train. Soinetbiu& had Lappeneu
tirely.
Yes. something had happened.
The track tor the length of two rails
—sixty feet—was in a serpen tine shape.
On both sides It had beeu warped into
a succession of “S’s.”
It looked exactly like the tracks of
the South Carolina railway just after
the big earthquake of a couple of years
»*o-
Each one of these carves was at least
three feet in* length. The gauge of
the road was perfectly preserved, and
the rails had pulled cross-ties and all
with them. Not a bolt was disturbed,
and the track, though It presented an
amusing snakish appearance, was per
fectly safe for the train to poll over It.
which was done at a low rate of speed
This expansion of these rails was
caused by yesterday’s heat, which
makes the thing most phenomenal,
for the rays which for the first time
have illuminated the ver rail lion face
of old Sol for many a day, were not in
tho least oppressive.
The track hands who flagged the
train down make th'e thing all the
more remarkable, for the foreman and
the gang as*serted with positiveness
that they had actually seen the steel
rails expand, carrying with them cross
ties and all.
It’s a well-known fact that steel rails
do expand some In excessively hot
weather, but nothfug to approach this
has ever before been heard of.
This carious phenomena was related
last flight to a-Journal man by one of
the most prominent Episcopal divines
in the state, who resides in Augustaf,
and who was a passenger on the train.
Hes.iw'the track in Irs zig zsggish
shapes, and raw the train pull over the
“S’s’.’ , at a low rate of.speed. The
flanges of the wheels pressed against
the track with great force and while
the front of the coach was on one side
ofthe “S” the rear was on the other.
Major J*»hn W. Green, the general
manager of the road w'as on board the
the engineer that the train'was pulled
over the warped rail*.
..He believed that the expansion was
due to the heat of yesterday, which lie
saldi was right oppressive a: one time,
-In tbe direct rays ot the sun.
Major Green, .who is one of the best
general managers In the United States,
has gotten the Georgia railroad in a
state of perfection equalled by a few
roads rin the north and certainly by
none in the sooth, Is a practical rail-
.road man.
* He i3 familiar with ever? detail of
railroading and knows as much about
track laying as he does about manag
ing a road.
He rays that when all steel rails are
laid there Is less than one-eighth of an
inch left between each rail to allow for
expansion,
. The rails which expanded so mm-h
yesterday were at the bottom oC a
double grade, and must have been what
tbo trackmen denominate “crawling
rails.” They, must have become
jammed np against each other, and, as
there was. ho room to expand on the
end, the expansion took place in the
middle of the rails.
Major. Green says that steel rails
often expand in hot weather, but he
has never known or heard before of
*»uch an exaggerated care of expansion,
and It’s specially remarkable for this
time of the year.
This Is probably the mn«t usual case
of expansion of steel rails on record,
and It’s absolutely true.

An Albany Lawyer’s Knowledge of

From tbe Bainbridge Globe.
The following Is a good one believed
never to have been in print before
Two prominent lawyers one from Bain-
bridge and one from Albany, Ga.,
were arguing a case before the Supreme
court when one of them quoted scrip
ture in snpport or his argument, the
other ridiculed the former’s knowledge
of scripture and after considerable
sparing, the Albany statesman offered
to bet five dollars that the Bainbridge
lawyer conld not repeat the Lord’s
prayer. “Done,?* said Bainbridge. The
money was pat up, and said Albany
“go ahead.”
“Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray tbe Lord my son! to keep,
If I should die, before I wake
I pray tbe Lord my soul to take”
said Bainbridge, looking around trium

The Alliance Monthly makes Fame
Interesting Reveluti n.
Atlanka, Feb. 18.—The George Al
liance Montby publishes editorially an
explanation ot Captain Harry Brown’s
vague threat ottered some weeks back,
when he gave the public to understand
that the .Alliance was being used to
fnrther the ends of individuals, and
that he had a good notion to expose
somebody.
According to tbe Monthly, It was
Col.”Livingston and no other at whom
Brown was hitting. Here is wliat the
paper says:
“Wewish to show before proceed
ing farther, that the Monthly will
never make a charge against President
LIviDgston more damaging to bis char
acter as a citizen or more damaging to
his official record than the charges
made by Editor Brown—accusations
ooi only to the editor of the Monthly,
bat to other very prominent Alliance-
Hr. Brown told ns that Col.
Livingston bad used tbe paper, South
ern Alliance Farmer, for bis own per
sonal benefit, politically, until the peo
ple all over the State were calling it
Livipgston’sA>rgan.’ He said farther
that Col. Livingston had the resolution
introduced in the State Alliance mak
ing him (Livingston) associate editor
far no other purpose hot to promote
himselt politically. He stated farther,
bad It not been for Col. Livingston’s
course on the paper, there never would
have been a clash between Gen. Gor
don and the Alliance.
Before leaving for Washington to
perfect arrangements for the purchase
of the Sonthcru Alliance Farmer stock,
Mr. Arown stated emphatically that
something most be done to take that
paper ont of Col-Livingston’s control;
that tbe people of Georgia had stood
Livingston’s corruption as long as they
would, and something had to be done
to save the organ—all of which is cor
roborated in the following editorial,
which appeared in the ‘orgn’ about the
time Mr. Brown made, his visit to
Washington.”
Here Editor Brown’s remarkable
editorial is quoted. The Monthly then
continues:
“Mr. Brown took particular pains
to tell us the above editorial .was writ
ten for the colonel’s special benefit.
And after all this talk by Editor
Brown we find the following in a re
cent issue of the ‘organ
“ ‘The officers of the Georgia State
Alliance are highly gratified at the
indorsement theo are receiving from
snD-Alliances. The enemies of our
order seek to place an entering wedge
In onr ranks by first destroying con
fidence in oar leaders.’
‘Now the burden of proof falls npon
Mr. Brown. If Col. Livingston If
guilty of what Mr. Brown says he is.
he Is certainly unworthy the presidency
of the State Alliance of Georgia. If
he Is innocent, Mr. Brown has slander
ed the president of the State Alliance
and should be dalt with accordingly.
“The meeting of its Alllancemen at
the mansion will soon put this side of
this matter before the people of Geor
gia, and it promises to make things
lively for some of the professed friends
of the order. All we ask Is for the
people to wait until both sides have
beeu presented, which will not be
long. .
“If there is anything wrong in the
course of President Livingston, or
Editor Brown and his ‘organ,* the
Monthly will most assuredly exooselt.
We have no whitewash on hand—
nothing to keep from tbe ‘wool hat’
boys.
“Neither the Monthly or any one
connected with It is a candidate for
any office, in the Alliance or out of it.
And, m tiie language of President IJv-
ngston, the Monthly will ‘stand for
measures and men,’ but they must be
elean measures and clean men.”

Lrm Burch has received the reward
of his infamy. He has been pardoned
by the president.
Bnrcb, It will be remembered, was
the main conspirator in the assassina
tion of Captain John C. Forsyth, and
it was on his evidence that Hall, the
Lancasters and the ether conspirators
were found guilty and sentenced to
the penitentiary.
Burch confessed the entire crime,
and because of his confession and his
alleged bad heal h, his pardon has
been granted. He was never regularly
put on trial, but the grand jury found
an indictment against him.
HIS FISHY SICKNESS.
Some time before the arrest of the
conspirators, Burch was told by t
young lady in Telfair county, that aht
had dreamed that he killed Forsyth.
Immediately he boc&me stricken with
paralysis, ns he claimed, and has ap
parently remained so to this hour
The public has generally believed that
Burch has been feigning illness, so as
to obtain judicial and executive clem
ency. Burch, it was thought, was in
a dying condition when first bfougi t
before the grand jury, and later, when
the trial commenced, it wns not be
lieved by the friends of the govern mi nt
that he could live until the case w> s
ended, but ha has lived, and it is said
has been Improving since the-trial, and
now that his pardon has^ome his rapid
recovery is looked for.
It is true that he was sick with pueu-
monia, hut few believe he has ever
been paralyzed. Since before the trial
Bnrch has been confined lubed at Mrs.
Hogan’s boarding house, in this city,
his health being considered by the
government as in too critical a condi
tion for him to be confined in jail.
HE DARE NOT GO HOME.
On being told to-day that he was
pardoned be said he would cevir re
turn to his old home in Telfair, as he
feared he would be killed by the friends
of those whose liberty he had sworn
away and who were now paying the
penalty of his confession in the Ohio
penitentiary. Bnrch should have been
hanged for the part he played in the
conspiracy that ended in the death of
Forsyth. He was undoubtedly, by
bis own words, the arch conspirator ot
all. He H was who carried the uegro,
Rich Herring, alias Lowery, to East
man, and pointed out Forsyth to him,
so he conld make no mistake in killing
the man. He it was who accompanied
Lowery a part of the way to Forsyth’s
house, on the night of the foul mur
der, and waited in the darkness for the
return of the assassin. He It was who
paid “tbe blood money” to Lowery
after Forsyth’s awful death. He it
was who turned traitor to his friendA

From tbo Philadelphia Press.
“We have many funny things to con
tend with,” remarked a policeman
near one of the ferries the other night.
“A little while ago a very pretty girl
of about 17 years of age came to me
and said she wanted me to arrest her
father. When 1 arrived at tbe house 1
found a man wbo proved to be the
girl’s father on the floor, and a nicely-
dressed yonng man sitting on his
breast. I asked what caused the trouble
when the young woman spoke up and
-•aid her father offered to interfere
with her keeping company with the
young man, and threatened to lock him
out. Between them they had thrown the
rebellious parent on tbe floor, pinioned
him, and then she had harried for po
lice protection. I told tbe father to
get up and then put the bracelets on
him. Then the daughter caught me
around the neck and begged me with
tears running down her cheeks not to
arrest her father, and the old man said
he was only in fan. I complied. Such
is human nature.”

General ofthe Army.
New York Herald.
With the death of Sherman thfe title
completely disappears from our milita
ry system.
It has been held by three men only.
It was created in 1866 by act of con
gress and conferred upon Grant. Sher
man then succeeded Grant as lieuteo-
ant general, and when the latter took
his seat as president in March, 1869,
the former became general of the army.
In 1884 Sherman was pat on the re
tired list with tbe title which he held
to the time of bis death. In the active
service the office by provision of law
became vacant and the title extinct,
Sheridan being commander of the
army with the rat k of lieutenant gen
eral. •,
In 1883, just before Sheridan’s death,
the rank of lieutenent general was
abolished and that of general revived,
with the understanding that Sheridan
should be made general, and the ex
press provision that the title should
continue only during his life.
Since that time the head of ihcarmy
