The New York Commercial calls at tention to the fact that the annual loss by fire in the United States Is alarm ingly great and increasing from year to year, notwithstanding the constant adoption oi new aou Improved methods of trying to prevent It. The loss Is very large, Indeed. The Increase Is greater in proportion than the increase In the •falue of the property. Suppose this ratio snould he maintained unin terruptedly, as the Commercial says, “the time would eventually come when the country would be without property to protect.” The matter of “protec tion" ot property by Insurance Is, after all, only protection to the owner against any loss to him, and not any protection or Insurance against the de struction of the property. Insurance only shifts the responsibility for the loss from the owner to the insurance company, and does not remove It from ■ the people of the county. So It is seen readily that the country as a whole suffers the shrinkage of Its assets just the same. So much material has been consumed . destroyed, gone to waste; so much value has disappeared, and while he owner has the worth of It returned to him, the country as a whole sustains the loss. The Commercial tainks there is a remedy for this great loss. It thinks that "If the insurance companies would all enforce more vigorous con ditions for the Issuance of policies, restrain the excessive teal of compe tition, arrange their schedules so as to afford real encouragement to careful owners of property, aad pomote, as far as in them lies, the construction of fire-proof building, they would doubt less reduce their risks materially, and a general decrease in the losses by lira would be the Inevitable result." If this plan would prove effective, and It seems reasonable to assume that It would aid very materially in the work, the insurance companies should not longer delay in the matter of put ting It into execution. The Valdosta Times thinks “Dick Croker is not the first man who has "resigned" to keep from being fired. The Virginia constitutional conven tion, according to the New York Sun, has the gift of perpetual motion. It can talk, ye gods, It can talk! Vir ginia is beginning to believe that the convention will sit forever. Men grow ing old will give themselves an air of dignity by saying that they remem bered well the day when the conven tion met. Little boys now in knicker bockers will come to reverence and the silver hair and tell their grandchil dren that the convention is the first thing they can remember. It may be that airships will be cleaving the ether long before the convention shows a mind tto adjourn, says the Sun. The Commoner says Thomas Jeffer son founded the Democratic party, which Is true. As to who foundered the party it speaketh not, says the Birmingham News. An exchange says a whisky drum mer was taken for DuPont Guerry at Waycross some days ago. What was that whisky drummer doing In Way cross, anyway? Dewey had sense. He cut the ca bles before fighting. He evidently thought it wise to cut the last link that connected hni with the navy depart ment. Sir Thomas Lipton’s receipt for prosperity is this: “Work hard, deal honestly, be enterprising, exercise careful judgment, advertise judiciously but freely. Admiral Schley has had bis first deer hunt, and that on Georgia soil. He got four shots, and killed one deer. We knew he would hit something. The government has been taking care of Generral Longstreett many years, and It looks as if he will con tinue in an easy berth.
