of Wire and Rod Interests.

CLEVELAND. March 10.-This week $
Iron Trade Review will say: Everything
is off in the proposed consolidation of
the wire and wire rod interests of the
country. This statement might be quail
flied by saying that, while the scheme on
the original lines is dead. something may
be accomplished in the next three weeks
toward a merging OF some of the i'm
portant concerns. But CT this there Is
TO certainty at present.
CHICAGO, March 10-Tkut the prop osei

NEW YORK. March ia dispatch to
the Press from Ottawa says:
bassador has informed the Canadian
minister officially that he has arranged
convention with the United States
whereby the Alaskan boundary dispute
has been settled.
Under the terms of the convention the
British government has conceded the
claim of the United States that the ten
marine leagues should be measured from
the shore of the man land and should
are thus recognized as arms of the ocean.
The contention Of the British and of the
Canadian governments was that the ten
league limit should begin on the ocean side
OF tHe lSlaHuS, ana tnat the dellmiting line
should be run across the inlets. and not
follow their shores
These inlets are numerous, and extend
INTO the main land a great distance, and
the decision, therefore Is of much impor-
tance TO the United States.
The United States has agreed TO the Brit
ish retaining the boundary on the limit of
the chilkoot and the. whitsa pass. because
in the Russian-Britsh agreement of 1875
the line OF demarkatlon was fixed as one
running along the tops OF the mountains.
The decision, while not entirely unex-
pected by the cabinet. Is regarded with dis
favor.
II was understood that the British gov
ernment was irri,ated az the forwardneSs
OF the Canadian ministry. but it was not
thought that the surrender would be so
sweeping as it IS.

VIOLATION OF TRUST LAW.
Kansas Insurance Commissioners r
knocks Out Anti-Rebnte Rule.

Topeka. March 10-Webb McNaA,
state insurance commissioner. has made
public copy of a compact alleged to have
been entered into by all the leading life
insurance companies of the country. which,
he says, goes TO show that they have
formed a combine which they term an
"anti-rebate board The object of the
board is TO prevent by severe penalties
any agent or company from allowing re-
bates or cutting regular rates decided upon
by the companies.
Mr.. McNall holds that the operation Of
the anti-rebate board destroys compe-
tition, keeps up insurance rates and is in
violation of the Kansas trust law. He
has addressed a letter to all companies
which have entered the compact, officially
notifying them they must Immediately
abandon the combination or he would re-
woke their licenses to do business in
Kansas.

STILL IN A DILEMMA,

Thad Il. Manning, editor Of the
Henderson, n. c., GOLD LEAF, in his
issue of last week, says:
''The stuff that we cut from the last
issue of FaibroAer's Farrago amounted to
four solid columns. But we can't use it
all at one time-good reading as it is
Inasmuch as the GOLD LEAF is the
model weekly newspaper of North
Carolina, and its editors ability is
acknowledged and appreciated by all
the North State editors, we simply
remark that we appreciate the above
compliment fully, and suggest that
in the future Col. Thad Just file
away the whole paper-that would
save the labor of cutting it-don't
you e?-Fairbrother's Furrago.
That wouldn't do for the simple
reason that if we filed away the whole
paper our readers would be deprived
of a great deal of pleasure while we
are enjoying a special privilege; and
if we give it to them without cutting
that would necessitate our having to
rdgos to send out as supplements.
And if we commenced that sort of
thing pretty soon some Of them would
want piano or a house and lot to
go along with each yearly subscrip-
ton to the GOLD LEAF-the majority
of them on credit at that.

The name of our State Is again
stained with outrageous shame. In
Cabarrus county the nameless crime
was committed and the victim muir
dered. In few hours mob had
lynched two negroes The
greatest shame of it is that the
lynchino occurred; but scarcely less
tolcrable is the fact that the whole
State must suffer the disgrace Of the
crime Of hideous mob.-Btbticat
Recorder.
We cannot believe the editor OF the
Recorder weighed his words when he
penned the above. Surely he did
not mean to say just what he did,
although he follows it up with the
declaration that "the men who lynch
ed them ought to be arrested, tried
as speedily as possible, and being
found guilty, ought to be hanged
until they are dead"
The GOLD LEAF does not undertake
to justify lynching nor is it any
apologist for the Cabarrus county
"mob," but it cannot bring itself to
see in their act greater shame than
the double crime committed by the
bestial brutes whose necks they
broke without law or license.

THELOAFING HABIT.

About ten years ago Charlotte was
emancipated from the habit of loaf
ing. From that time it prospered.
professionals sat upon dry goods
boxes. whitfield sticks and talked
over the affairs of men, women and
children in the town. One man
made rule that there could be no
loafng in front of his place of bust
ness. He was considered reckless.
A little later 4 clothing house made
until to-day there is not business
house in Charlotte having loafers in
chairs and on dry goods boxes in
front of any store. They have been
driven from one store to another
until now the native local loafer has
no refuge except amongst the tran
sient guests at the hotels. He still
gets out at night and squats oa
chairs that he never pays for at the
hotels and loafs in disguise, as a
transient guest of the house. Char
lottc has prospered in proportion as
the loaiing habit has been broken up.
The loafernot only produces nothing,
but he saps the energies of the work
ing man.
Some years ago the Observer wrote
Of the emancipation Of Fort NH from
the loating habit. The local paper
at Fort Mill copied the article and
expressed pleasure at being written
about in that strain. Since then Fort
Mill has been prosperous. Sails
bury is prosperous by the efforts Of
those people who are never seen
whiting sticks and loating on the
streets. In the course of time in all
our Southern towns and cities the loaf
ing habit will be disgraceful as it
ought to be. From that time for
wards every Southern town and cit V
will prosper.
In Rockingham the loafing habit
has been largely broken up. AS a
consequence it is a prosperous town.
Rock Hill. in South Carolina, was
never victim of the loating habit,
and it always prospered. Founded,
practically since the war, it has pros
pered far beyond the adjacent towns
that are more than 100 years old.
To all towns we would say: If
you would prosper then drive out
the loafers.'
Nothing is more Of a nuisance than
to 90 into a store to make a ten-cent
purch asc and have fourteen loafers
hear all the talk about it, and then
talk it over afterwards.
To each and every town in the
South we say: IF you would pros
per then break up the loating habit"
The above from the Charlotte o.
serrer is worthy of more than a pass
ing thought. The suggestion therein
contained could be adopted to adj
vantage in Henderson as well as
other towns. In the absence Of some
ordinance or law against the loaf
ing habit business men and property
owners might break it up in a great
measure by prohibiting persons
known to be habitual idlers from
lounging about their premises.
People who will not work or have
no business of their own to attend to
should be made to keep out of the
way of those who have. They should
be kept off the streets and compelled
to stay at home or elsewhere instead
OF blocking up the sidewalks, crowd
ing the store fronts or monopoliZin 9
the space inside as is frequently the
ease.
Let the crusade against loaiing
take form and action.
