* Every Que Must Jump When '
His Own Particular Bell
Rings.
/
r , By B. C. FORBES.
i NEW YORK. June 2‘. Do you pver
5 that if only you were in some nne
w -h’e s shoes you could do as you liked.
<hat you would have to submit to no <
bossing. that you would be entirely
free? Have you ever envied the mil
lionaires. whom you supposed to he mas
ters of all they surveyed? Or, to pul it
differently, did you not when a child
a fancy that all power resided in your
parents. that they were supreme, un
tranimeled. absolutely free-will agents?
And then did not the teacher also become
*n autocrat, a being to be envied? Later
It was learned that these had to submit :
to certain restraints, but there were the
rich who beyond question had to bXw the ,
neck to nobody. And arc there not some
among us who still imagine that there
are thousands of the financially elect who '
< have no masters"
Ihe truth is that no one but a cipher
least of all the big people can boast
<'f immunity from overlordship of some
form. We are all. from the least to the
greatest, servants. Not one of us is a
master ungoverned, unchecked, answer- ,
abb: io nobody.

Long ago I preserved a newspaper cut
ting with the caption. “The landless Chain
. Authority.” 1 have repeatedly meant
to write on the subject, for if employees
’ could onlv realize that their employers
are no more free perhaps much less so
than themselves they would harbor fewer
feelings of resentment, of dissatisfaction
over the scenhe of things and of un
«haritableness toward those “higher up.”
Then yesterday I read an article w hich :
expressed the right sentiment so forceful- I
ly that I could not refrain from discuss-■ I
ing it. Here is the pointed extract:
There is one thing that servants
do not seem to appreciate, namely,
that while they must jump at the ;
ring of the hell, al) of us must jump
to the rings of our bells. We all
have some others pressing the button
for us. no matter how comfortable
and luxurious our environment may
seem. ;
That statement comes from whom. .
think you? From the acknowledged
’ leader of New York s fashionable society,
from the head of the Four Hundred, from
Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish. Fancy a lady oc
cupying such station frankly admitting
that she must jump al the ring of the
bell, just as the humblest of her maids
must do! How many house servants,
how many shop girls, how many tele
phone operators, how many married I
women in poorer circumstances ever con
ceived that even the greatest of society
leaders had to jump at the ring of a
bell? Yet it is eternally true. And not
I one whit more true of plutocratic ladies
! than of equally plutocratic men.
The bell of public opinion is today mak
ing even the Morgan-Rockefeller-Vander-
Legal Notices.

of our corporations immune. The rail
roads have had to jump pretty lively,
and certain gigantic industrial comhlna

‘ln theory only." you may reply. Well,
it is your own fault if you are not so
n practice also, for you are responsible
for law-making and no capitalist can
defy a law which the m&ss of the people
insist upon being obeyed. If through your
laziness, your indifference, your neglect
of civic duties matters have gone awry,
then do not seek to transfer the blame to
another s shoulders Happily, the people
are coming to realize their righty But
let them not forget their responsibilities.
And this is the point ( would seek to
emphasize -do not act on the assump
tion that the capitalists, the directors
and presidents of railroads, the man
agers of industrial corporations live in a
world different from your own. that they
have no bells to bother them, that for
them life is «ne long, sweet song More,
if they do not answer the bell satis
factorily they can not hold their jobs.
If they do not faithfully SERVE* the
public, they are elbowed aside sooner or
later. In these latter days it is sooner
rather than later.
Millions filched illicitly from the public
do not yield satisfying dividends. If the
bell rung by ‘•onscience he not answered,
no walls of gold are thick enough to keep
out ttie sound. So that those who “get
away with it" need not be envied by the
rest of us who are servants.

Some who are given to growling and
whining, to foolishly thinking the man
higher up has no boss, may find com
fort in this description, by a railroad
president, of the endless *4iain of author
ity:
“When I was a brakeman b thought
that when I got to be conductor I cer
tainly would have something to say. But
when I became a conductor I discovered
that the trainmaster had the say. So.
1 aspired to be a trainmaster. In that
position I found the superintendent block
ing m\ self-assumed authority. As a
superintendent. 1 was answerable to the
general manager. By the time I arrived
at the hitter position I surely believed
that my sway would only be limited by
my desire, but there''-was the president
as my supreme boss. In good lime I be
came the head of the road, and then it
was the board of directors that passed
upon my actions About the only thing
left was to become a director. Now I
am on the board of several corporations
and the powers still higher Up often play
the lunes to which directors dance."
Have you forgotten what happened
when tlie Lord, moved by ceaseless com
plaining. summoned all the people and
told them to throw their troubles on one
heap? Each one was then told Io pick
out the lightest he could find. And. to
the las; man. every one selected his own!
THE ATLANTA G
COTTON MARKET
SHOWS DECLINE
Good Weather. Lower Cables,
and Selling Pressure Com
bine to Pull Prices Down.
NEW YORK. June 24. —Disappointing
Liverpool cables and liberal selling, oc
casioned by the weather map, affected our
market on the opening with a decline of
3 to !i points. Liverpool cables market
declined in 'consequence of favorable
weather and selling orders from the con
tinent.
During the first half-hour the market
developed a firm tone on the report is
sued by Uordill. who is out with report
on part of Georgia, not so good as ex
pected.
\fter the call, scattering covering and
buying for the New Orleans accounts
brought about a rally, carrying prices 1
to 6 points above the opening. This rally
only lasted a few minutes and the mar
ket became weak, due to the favorable
weather condition over the belt, and the
government predicting another week of
good weather, and the market shown a
backward trend with prices sagging back
to the opening. The bears anticipate still
lower prices before the close. The buy
ing power was moderate and scattered.
Spot houses shown good demand for
spots, however, there was very little for
sale, the belief is that spots have almost
petered out.
At the close the market was steady
with prices unchanged to 5 points lower
than the Saturday s dose.

HAYWARD 4 CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. June 24. -Weather
conditions over Sunday were favorable
Dry, warm weather prevailed in the
ern states, while light to moderate scat
tered showers covered central ami west
ern states. The dreaded heat wave dt<]
not materialize: on the contrary. Wash
ington predicts another weak of favorable
weather: generally fait with normal tern*
peratures.
Liverpool was about 6 points lower than
due. but promptly followed the rally in
New York Spots 3 points lower. An old
farmer and ginner, over 30 years in the
same locality, wmites from a poini in south
Texas: "Crop immense: best of my rec
ollection. Already manx half-grown bolls
and blooming all over, while grow-ing
continually. Already 2 to 3 feet high.
No insects at all. Not a weevil can he
found. An English buyer who left for
Liverpool Saturday offered 50 cents for a
weevil during the whole week without
getting any even after raising his limit to
sl. Think of over five-million for Texas
assured. Plenty of old cotton in our com
presses yet, which people now think of
selling."
A farmer writes from Arkansas that a
six-hundred-a< rc place which, on April 17
was overflowed, now has a good crop. The
market opened easier, but was soon
strongly supported and rallied. The fact
that the least apparently unfavorable
crop report even if unimportant, is being
given preference over the volume of good
reports ami facts, shows bullish indica
tions prevailing.

rains. In the west, where most of the
rains of the week fell, the soil was al-%

the fields were clean. In that part of
the belt the week was unusually favora

just the one thing that is needed. All
over Oklahoma. Texas and Arkansas,
heavy rain fell, and good .general rain fell
in Arkansas, Louisiana. and

STATE EXPERT SAYS
COTTON CROP WILL

E. Lp9 Worsham, statp entomologist,
who has just completed a trip over the
state, is not impressed with Georgia's
prospects for a good, big cotton • rr p.
Mi. Worsham took a decidedly pes
simistic view of cotton conditions in
general today, asserting that If the
August influx of the cotton caterpillar
proves as damaging as usual. Georgia
will he luck,s' to get assay in the faII

The recent intrusion of the army
worm, however. Mr. Worsham said, nad
been cheeked to a large extent. A.
