Conditions Never Better So Far
as They Affect Our Country.
Declares Gary.
PITTSBURG, Oct. 29. At the third
general meeting of the American iron
and Steel institute here Judge S. H.
Gary, chairman of the United States
Steel Corporation, stated that the Unit
ed States was in the midst of an un
precedented era of prosperity. He laid
its cause to the recovery of the general
public and the great corporations from
the bankers’ panic of 1907. Judge Gary
touched very’ lightly on the Interna
tional political situation. He said in
part:
”We are in the midst of an era of
prosperity never before surpassed, so
Car as it affects our particular lines.
These conditions have not resulted from
he application of political policies or
efforts, but exist in spite of them. They
are here because nothing could pre
vent. In the first place, for the last
tw years, following the bankers' panic
■f 1907, there has existed a feeling of
mcertainty and a lack of confidence
vhich have deterred the great purchas
ing public from entering the market,
oven to the extent of supplying their
necessities. This has been especially
true of the railroad companies, who are
among our largest patrons
Buy of Necessity.
"In consequence, the necessities of
the consumers have piled up to such
in extent that they have lately been
forced to increase their purchases ma
terially. When, therefore, the railroad
companies and others similarly situ
ated commenced to buy, the general
Influence and effect were Immediately
felt, and buying on a large scab liatl
immediately developed
“Moreover, the bountiful crops and
sound basic conditions of the country
have made every one realize more
clearly than ever before that prosperity
In this splendid country of ours is to be
the rule and ndt the exception, not
withstanding at times we may be sur
rounded by adverse influences and un
warrantable interference, which, in any
ordinary country, would bring pro
longed distress and suffering.
“Questions of great magnitude and
concern are at present the
minds of the people throughout the
world. We may be stubbornly oblivious
to some of them, but we ought not to
be. We refuse to consider, or at least
postpone consideration of. many of
them. The questions are international,
national and domestic: ami thej in- j
volve the welfare of every one. We |
are disposed to wrap around oursetvcs I
the cloak of self-righteousness, or we j
proclaim that we rely upon the stability ‘
of government or the majesty of the i
law, and we consider ourselves safe,
whether in our vision everything seems
o be calm and tranquil or otherwise.
People Al! Powerful.
We sometimes forget that it is the I
masses of the people who determine i
final results: that they may establish
and abolish governments; that they!

They believe in the sentiment, to quote
from a French writer on French his
tory, that "there is bigotry in politics
as well as in religion, and it. is the
worst of bigotry to : eject Change a
something which is inherently bad.
Laws to be permanently useful must
vary with the varying condition of man.
“I am dealing in generalities, not in
tending to be specific or to make per
sona! reference. The thought I would
'eave with you is that there is r;o way
permanently settling any great ques
tion involving the welfare of human i
kind except on the basis of right and
justice. Position, wealth, influence,
laws are helpless as a means of estab
lishing a rule for human conduct unless
supported by principles of justice and
righteousness.”

WASHINGTON. Oct. 29.- 'Some of
the prominent speakers of the third
party have not hesitated to declare that
the election of Governor Wilson would
mean financial disaster to the country,
and yet they are working for no other
end. From absolute!) dependable
sources information comes to me that
the leaders of file third party do not
beiieve they have the slightest chance
of success and that they realize that
a vote for it means a vote for the
Democrats. But they are so filled with
hatred for the Republican party be
cause it refused to accede to their de

Thus wrote President Taft to Fred

Atlanta New York Paris
The Vogue of Velvet
A Notable Showing of Suits, Dresses and Wraps In
This Paris=favored Fabric
\\ hen Paris speaks the whole world of fashion listens and heeds
her words, and Paris has had much to say this season about velvets
for suits, for dresses, for wraps.
This display is intended to show to the women of Atlanta just
what the vogue for velvets really amounts to, how it pervades and
predominates the fashions, why beauty-loving Paris acclaims it so
lustily.
For many of the suits, dresses and wraps that you will see here
tomorrow are copies of models that were originated in the shops of
the notables of Paris, others are Paris-inspired—the result, a display
of surpassing elegance and richness—one that women will want to see
as of great interest at this time of selecting their wardrobe for the sea
son ahead.
The Suits
\ou 11 not have to be told that many ot these are of French origin—they look it,
charmingly. As an example take this suit of black velvet that has a little square
flat collar and broad revers of white velour and a belt effect in the back because
° the position of a heavy-embroidered band—or another suit of black velvet,
that, too,has a low flat collar and yet very different from the above. But its chief dis
tinction is the white cloth vest and the way the sleeves are touched at the cuffs
with white. I hen there are other suits, many of them that will fasten your in
terest—these m navy, in brown, in taupe velvet and with them the corduroy suits,
two-toned and solid colors, in styles that small women in particular will like
Ihe velvet suits are priced from $37.50 to SSB 50, the corduroy from $35 to
$48.50.
The Dresses
Sucii a choice that this stock allows. For here are velvet dresses, all velvet, velvet
coinbined with charmeuse, velvet with chiffon—plain velvets, striped velvets, bro
caded velvets—each one a distinctive model. One time the charm will lie in the
drapery ot a skirt—as in this one of striped velvet in black and a shade of blues
just a bit brighter than Copenhagen, the skirt of which is a tunic that drops low
and caught at the side front with a band of old gold and blue embroidery that ex
tends from the waist—another time the charm will be in the colorings, the com
bination of two shades, again it will be in the waist—-the soft chiffonsand the
charmeuse that we can hardly tell you of. more than that the woman who loves
beautiful dresses is going to enjoy them.
These are priced from $17.50 to $78.50.
The Coats
Distinctly Parisian with their great, loose sleeves and fullness through the body
that is gathered into drapings at the front—making them very narrow at the bot
tom. 1 his narrowness is often accentuated by wide bands of shirred velvet.
And the coats are short this season and often edged with fur-—as this one of
raspberry velvet, the back of which is very plain.but the front is a mass of drapings
that tall from the one button pl aced rather high. It is edged all around with
black marten-—but let us not tell of one when there are so many that are worthy,
plain black velvets, black velvets with charmeuse, rich shades of blue, of coral, oi
rose, in plain velvets and brocaded velvets.
These priced from $37.50 to $98.50.

JUDGES IN ALABAMA
TO REVISE RULES OF
LEGAL PROCEDURE
MONTGOMERY, ALA., Oct. 29.—The
Alabama supreme court and the court
of appeals will be convened in Decem
ber during tlie second week of the call
of the sixth division to consider a re-,
vision of the court’s rules of practice
and proceduie.
The five associate justices who last
week requested Chief Justice Dowdell
to convene the courts November 7. for
that purpose today received a reply
from Chief Justice .Dowdell expressing
a willingness to grant the request, but
suggested that the second week of the
sixth division cail would be a more
suitable time, “when we can not only
consult as judges, but act as a court,
and this latter we can not do out of
term time ”
The five associates replied that they
felt tlie earlier date would be better,
but accepted Chief Justice Dowdell’s
suggestion.
EX HUSBAND TAKES
CHANCE AND WEDS;
SHE ASKS PRIVILEGE
Mrs. Emily Pinion, who succeeded in
obtaining a divorce from her huSwind
some months ago, but failed to get per
mission to remarry, told superior court
today that she guessed if Pinion could
go out and get married before she had
read the decree and get away with that,
the court ought to remove her disabili
ties.
According to her suit Pinion, confi
dent that she would get a favorable
verdict in her divorce proceeding, didn’t
wait for the final decree, but married
him a new wife on the night, before the
court put the final fiat on Mrs. Pinion's
suit. The brother of his new wife got
out a bigamy warrant, which was later
dismissed, and Pinion and his wife are
living happily together.
Mrs. Pinion was denied tlie right to
remarry, because she admitted striking
her husband.
