KEEP IT At HOME.


amount of money that is drawn from
the South every year for the one
object Of insurance. We are not
opposed to insurance. To The con-
trary, we think it is the duty of
every man who has others de-
pendent upon his labors to have
his life Insured for as large an
amount as he is able to carry with.
out embarrassm ent and we think
too, that it is the part OF wisdom to
carry a proper amount of fire insu-
rance upon property. But the point
is this: We ought to have safe and
we'll managed life and fire Insurance
companies in the South, so that a
large per centage of the money now
sent away could be kept at home.
Recently, correspondent of the
Charlotte Observer called attention
to the statement of one of the largest
life companies in the country and
made some pertinent comments
thereon, from which we make the
following, extracts and commend
them to the consideration of our
business men:
GA highly displayed advertisement
pauy in the New York Herald furn-
ishes an object lesson which suggests
where millions and millions of dol
lars of the money go and are con-
centrated. This corporation is only
one of thousands in the United
States which daily draw from every
nook and corner OF our country
money to be boarded, or used in the
great financial centers.
'This vast amount represents
money paid by policy-holders and
it's increase In within few years,
comparatively, this enormous sum
has been accumulated out OF money
paid by insured people. Where will
it end? What will be the sum total
100 years hence? The figures given
by this company speak for them
selves and furnish ground for
thought. This is only one company.
A like showing by the different fire
aud life insurance companies at the
great money centers would show
where the money of the people is
being piled up, and who gets the
benefit it. The army of non pro-
ducers who thus fatten on the toilers
of the land, getting enormous sala-
ries, is very large. While they grow
rich on their wits, the masses of the
people grow poorer and poorer.
Summarizing the assets of the
Life Company it is found
that Sc, 900, 1OS.33 is invested in
United States bonds. Nearly 3d.
100000 is invested in Russian secur-
tiles A mere trifle is in local South
ern securities, and nearly all the
other bonds and stocks represent
New York capitalists and their inter
ests-North Carolina does not ap-
pear in the list.
Something should be done to
keep our money at home. 1t is
carted off to Baltimore, Philadelphia,
New York and Boston, and there
finds its way into the hands of the
bankers and brokers, who give for it
bonds, stocks, etc, listed on their
and there it stays piled
up waiting for more confidence.

These comparisons are made in no
spirit of unfriendl:ness towards any
part of our country. The purpose
is simply a refutation of the con
stantly repeated charge that the
South is less law abiding than other
sections. These figures, from a
source authoritative and unques-
toned, demonstrate beyond cavil
that the South is by far the most
peaceable and virtuous section of the
Union, as it is the most pronounced

ECHOES OF MEMORY.

Wells of memory; where seer
Through the deep dells of time,
Tenderest eyes that CLEAN.
Half-mirrored moods Of rhyme:
Eyes of memory; where thrown
Back from lips discreet,
Lovelorn kisses blown,
Where smile and teardrop meet.
Lips of memory felt in
Hearts pause and interlude.
OF twin desire where sin
Lurked in excess of good:
Heart Of memory, but stirred
In the deep lull that fell
In some strange sound in word
And voice in look and spell.
Voice of memory and moan
OF banished years forget,
Heard only in the gloom
And dusk of hidden thought.

ETERNITY.

Because the rose must fade.
Shall not love the rose?
Shall l not rest me there
Because the summer shade
Passes when winter blows,
In the cool air?
Because the sunset sky
Makes music in my soul,
Only to fall and die,
Shall | not take the whole
OF beauty that it gives
While yet it lives?
Because the sweet of youth
Doth vanish all too soon,
Shall | forget, forsooth,
To learn its lingering tune
My joy TO memorize
In those young eyes?
If like the summer flower
That blooms-a fragrant death
Keen music hath no power
To live beyond its breath,
Then of this flood of song
Let me drink long!
All, yes, because the rose
Fades, and the sunset skies
Darker, and winter blows
All bare, and music dies
Eternity!
