FACT ANO fflP IN MO! IBIS 1 * 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. • CO IJRT (X)MM IS SION E R ’S I SALE.

ATLANTA RISK FIRM TO INCREASE CAPITAL STOCK TO $1,000,000.00 officials of the Empire Life Insurance t’ompany are preparing for an increase of three-quarters nf a million dollars in their capital stock. Application for per mission to increase the amount from >250.- 000 to $1,000,000 will be made to the state officials witliin the next few' days. The addition to the capital was author ized by a meeting of the stockholders of the company late Saturday afternoon, when over three-fourths of the outstand ing stock was represented at a meeting held in the company’s offices in Atlanta. At the session a new hoard of directors w<’s als«> elected, to serve one year. The Atlanta members are: \V. \V. Reid, presi dent: S. (’. Callaway, vice president: T. M. Callaway, secretary; F. A. Hooper, Dr. R. .1 Sprat ling arid R. M. Callaway. TO SEEK ABOLITION OF • FLOYD COMMISSIONERS ROME. GA.. June 24. -Captain H. P. Meiklehaiti, resident manager of Mas sachusetts mills in Georgia and chair man of the Floyd county Democratic executive committee, would abolish the county hoard of commissioners and vest ail the powers and rights of this body with the ordinary. Mr. Meikleham has served notice that he will have a meas ure introduced in the legislature to bring this about. hilt class jump. Nor are the strongest of our corporations immune. The rail roads have had to jump pretty lively, and certain gigantic industrial comhlna lions are also being put through their uaccs. ♦ ♦ ♦ r>u are as much J. P, Morgan’s boss as he is yours. w • • ‘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. Warehouse stocks In New York today. L 35.378; certificated. 115,924. RANGE IN NEW YORK FJUT.URES.

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.

Progress was made, general ly speaking, both in plant growth and cul tivation. although,, in plant growth, some what retarded, the former b\ unseasona bly low temperatures and the latter by rains. In the west, where most of the rains of the week fell, the soil was al-% ready at a high state of cultivation and the fields were clean. In that part of the belt the week was unusually favora ble. as the moisture the crop received was 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 Tennessee. In all these states, cultiva tion is well advanced.

Georgia will he luck,s' to get assay in the faII with a fi.’i pe*' cent crop The recent intrusion of the army worm, however. Mr. Worsham said, nad been cheeked to a large extent. A.

STATE PRINTER BYRD FULL Y VINDICATED BY REPORT OF EXAMINER In a lottr sent bmadi ast todas* I'hniles P Bsrd. sitae printer, decodes that he is abeolutel.s vindicated by the report of Frank J. *'ohen, expert print er. who investigated the charges that Byrd had violated his contract with the state. He declares that he made no answer to the accusations against him because he knew he had complißd fully with all the requirements of his posi tion. He points -out that Mi. Conen s re port finds that instead of Byrd owing tlie state, the state owes Byrd $69.98. the difference between undercharg* s and overcharges. Mr. *'ohen also finds that Byrd couldn't use "small plea" as specified by law, because there is none of that type now in existence So Mr. Byrd was perfectly justified, Cohen adds, in using eleven |x>!nt. which is recognized over the entire country ns being the nearest thing to small pica M . Cohen's conclusion is that the stair la" should be revamped to make the specification 1 , more explicit.
