The Clarion Ledger has begun a
lively fight for the repeal of the law
requiring a deposit of $4,000 from
insurance companies before they can
transact business in Mississippi. 1t
is contended that this deposit keeps
many good companies out of the
State, and gives those who come in a
monopoly and makes insurance much
higher than it would be were there
free competition. Representative
Peyton, of Kinds county, introduced
a bill last Saturday to secure the re-
peal of this law, and 1T or some other
such measure should 60 through.

TO THE PUBLIC.

One year ago, we succeeded in bus
mess the old firm of Earns & Lyell,
and although partially strangers, we
sold during 1889 nearly double what
the old firm sold in 1888. We are
egOtistic enough to believe there is
some good reason for this increase of
business in this house, and we believe
the real reason is 1--WE adopted more
liberal policy toward our customers,
and were satisfied with smaller
profits"
We sold cheaper and the exper-
iment was successful. We enjoyed
big trade, and collected nearly
every dollar we sold.
We again offer our services to the
public, inviting business intercourse
from all those who are willing to
trust us. We handle every kind
of goods needed by the farmers, and
we buy them as low as anybody else,
and can sell on as little profit. The
fact is, our expenses are smaller than
any house in WessOn. While some
goods will be cheaper this year than
last, we wish to say we have no big
ger or better promises to make than
last year. We expect to act con-
scientiously in every transaction
and we intend to sell as cheap
as anybody else, and we are prepared
to do it But we expect to do legiti-
mate business. We are not going to
fish for trade with "baits," we have no
big capital to blow about, no spasm
of wonderful reforming powers has
seized us,-but we are here to stand
or fall on the record we have made.
at is safe to judge the future by the
past" The people of the country
know us. We have handled over 5000
