ALLEGIANCE TO ORGANIZATION.
1t is not that the people have not felt
that stirring of determination that this in
action has endured, but because of the
rule of party which has largely controlled
men in and out of office. 1t has become
a source Of reproach to any man that he
should dare to renounce allegiance to or
ganization Men have been expected to
submit their views to the dictation of con-
ventions, although it is common knowledge
that conventions have been swayed to
views and declarations not the most APP
proved by the mass of the people nor pro
gressive for their welfare

MONETARY REFORM.

We hold that in the great work of social
evolution in this country monetary reform
stands as the first requisite. No policy,
however promising of good results, can
take its place.
Continuation during the next four years
upon the present financial system viii bring
down on the American people that cloud
of impending evil to avert which should
be the first thought of statesmen and the
first prayer of patriots.
WHERE WILL IT END.

the old Stokes grave yard in this place.
Dr. c. w. Peterson, late graduate
of the Tulane Medical college of New
Orleans, is on visit to relatives in this
place. The young doctor, having come
of good medical stock, and being pos
: sessed of a fine mind and having en-
joyed the best advantages in his studies,
will no doubt make his mark in the
medical world. He has not yet concluded
where he will locate, but it is probable
that he will make Greensboro his home.
Mr.. Sid Waller, who is not yet full
hedeed physician, but who has completed
Two courses of lectures in the medical
college at Mobile, returned home few
days ago.
The editress of the society column of
the stat tie Herald, in her interesting ac-
count of Governor and Mrs. Fitzpatrick
IN the issue Of the paper of the 2Sth in
slant says: Mrs. Governor Fitzpatrick
was, previous TO her marriage, Miss Bill
linsslea." This IS a mistake. She was
Miss Rachel Aurelia Blassengame, and
was born and reared few miles north
Of Marion. She WAS well known all over
this section Of labama as Rachel Bias
sengame, and was noted for her beauty.
She was the constant companion of an
other lady also remarkable for her beau
~, Miss Lucy Goree, who was born and
reared on the Goree place, seven miles
west of Marion. The two were probably
the handsomest ladies ever reared in
this section of Ala bama remarkable for
Its handsome women. Miss Lucy Goree
married Dr. Campbell and a few years
ago was living in Galveston, Tex. Miss
Rachel Blassengame had a younger sis
ter, Miss Mary, also beautiful, who mar
ried Mr.. Glenn and who is the mother of
Mrs. Judge d2. C. Brckell. So much for
the truth of history.
The fusion ticket la tely put out by the
populists and republicans at Montgom-
cry excites no enthusiasm in this county.
Barring the negroes, we do not believe
the ticket will receive the vote of one
out of ten of those who formerly called
themselves members of the peoples par
~. The great bulk of the peoples party
voted in the late primaries, and with
rare exceptions. they are going to stand
by the pledge then made by them implic-
lily that they would vote for the nomi-
neeS of the democra tic party.

Greensboro, May 4.-(Special)-On last
Thursday evening this section was WIS.,
tied by a wind which blew down trees
and fences and unroofed many cabins
and outhouses, but caused no loss of life.
The wind was accompanied by a flood
of rain, which did much damage to
planted crops. The streams are higher
than they have been for many years.
The rains still continue and have put a
stop to all farm work. If we have wet
May look out for grassy crops and poor
stands of cotton. To the 1st of May
the weather was unusually propitious
for crops, but since then the heavy rains
and cool nights have put a different as
pect upon the crop outlook. The in
crease in the cotton acreage in this Sec
ton is estimated to be about 5 per cent
above that of last year.

THE PEOPLES MUTUAL.
A Good Attendance at the Annual Meet
ing-The Company ON u Solid Basis,
with Bright Prospects for
,ha Euture.

the
From the Ionia Standard, Jan. ~
The annual meeting OF the Peoples
Mutual Fire Insurance Co., OF lonia,
Montcalm and Clinton counties, was
held at the city hall Tuesday afternoon,
and drew out a representative attend
ance from each of the three counties.
Considerable interest was manifested
in the work accomplished during 1898.
The secretary's report showed very
gratifying increase in membership, 3ol
new members having been added, rep
resenting over S450,0OO new insurance.
AS will be seen by the report published
in today's Standard, the Peoples com
pany met with heavy losses during the
past season, which necessitated an as
sessment of 81 mills, which, however,
is less than that levied in 1895. The
Company now shows a membership OF
nearly $500 with risks aggregating
about three millions and half. 1t is
rapidly winning the confidence OF the
people, and its management is in the
hands of officers who have zealously
labored to promote its growth and pros
perity.
An animated and interesting discus
sion followed the report OF President
Taylor, on his work OF inspecting and
revising the company's risks in Mont
calm county, which resulted in wedding
out large amount of insurance that
conficted with the present stringent
bylaws OF the company, and reducing
insurance on excessive valuations.
There was some disposition to criticise
the work by one or two members, as an
unnecessary expense, but a large ma
jority of the speakers endorsed the
move as onein the right direction, and
most necessary for the continued pros
Derity of the company land when 1t was
fully explained that the president paid
his own expenses and furnished his own
conveyance, the sentiment that his re-
Enumeration was not excessiveprevailed
The interest manifested in the affairs
of the company is the best guarantee
for future success. 1t is most desirable
that members of mutual companies
should attend the annual meetings, and
post themselves fully on what is being
done. These companies have been a
great saving to farmers, but it is the
proper business of the members to look
after the management, air their grlev'
auces, if they have any, and learn the
true explanations of what they may
not fully understand.
That the management OF the Peoples
has been generally satisfactory, was
shown by the reelection of the officers,
except one director, in most cases with,
out opposition. The following were
elected:
| President-John T.. Taylor.
Vice President-V. II. Smith.
Secretary-T. G.. Stevenson.
Directors-A. F. Morehouse, Portland; G. w
Blumberg, Douglass; John +, Whitmyer, Ionia
The Peoples company has shown
a steady growth for the last three OF
four years, and has gained position
that justly commands the confidence o
the people in its territory.
