the ladder on the side of the car and
resting his feet on the box at the emu
of the axle. AS the train was pass
ing over trestle, a short distance
further on, his foot slipped and his leg
was caught between two cross-ties,
breaking il in two places above the
knee. He was brought here imme-
diately and carried to Rex Hospital

tense agony all the afternoon, he was
reported as resting easy last night

LEGALIZlNG PRIMARIES.
Mr.. Alex. j. Field will Propose ;
Resolution In the State Demo-
cratic Convention.

Readers of the News and Observer
recall several excellent articles from
the pen of Mr.. Alex. J. Field, secre-
tary of the Democratic State EXecu-
tive Committee. on the Importance of
securing a larger participation In
party primaries. In line with the
suggestions previously made by him
in these columns Mr.. Field will intro
duce in the State Convention the fol-
lowing resolution:
Whereas, in most instances in our
State at the present time nominal
ton is equivalent to an election; and
Whereas, although faith in the
ability of the people to govern them
selves is a cardinal principle of De-
mocracy, experience has shown that
something more than ethical motives
is necessary TO bring into full activ-
ity their political wisdom and patriot
ism.
therefore, in order to avoid dis
sentions, Injustice and devious meth
DDS; to strengthen and ennoble the
elective franchise. that highest pre-
negative of citizenship; and to main
tain the ascendency of manhood
above money in our political SYSTEM;
be it III
"Resolved, that the platform of
principles of the Democratic party i'll
NOGIl N~itIoliild, W NC Sooptcu Wy Cl'iS
convention, shall contain the follow
ing provision:
''In order that we may have a gov
eminent of the people, for the people,
and by the people, in its highest and
best sense, we are in favor of legal
izing all political primaries; and of
enacting a mild compulsory law, not
burdensome, but sufficient to secure
general participation, not only IN
the election, but also in the political
primaries, by those entitled to eXar-
else the elective franchise"
This resolution is printed in 2d-
vance so that every delegate to the
convention and every Democrat in
the State may consider and discuss it
before going to Greensboro.

to protect their health especially by

with such a feeling as to my duty
7 take great pleasure in saying to
the public that in my own experience
and also from personal observation

no limit to the great benefit this food
will bring when used in all cases or
sickness and Commissioners.

there is nothing so nourishing and

at breakfast to start the machinery
of the human system on the DAY

that complete breakfast can be MADE

LUMBER MUTUAL.
Insurance Commissioner Warns Lum-
Der Men Against Company Not
Licensed.

Insurance commissioner Young says
his attention has been called to the
attemnt ON the part of the Lumber
Mutual Fire insurance Company, Bos-
TON Macs ia do business in this State
without license sometime since
representative of this company came
to the Insurance department, made
certain inquiries ana stated to the com
missioner that under no circumstances
wouId thew attempt to do business in
this state unless they We're licensed,
and that the object of his visit to the
state wac ia look over the field and see
whether they would take out license
here or not.
The commissioner desires to warn
the owners of lumber and wood work
ing establishments in the State against
this company. They are not licensed
to do business in the State and any
contract made by them would be null
and void and not enforceable in our
courts. 1t is true they promise to re-
turn some dividends on the amount of
premiums but this is determined by
tha losses and the assured becomes
liable TO an assessment for three times
the amount of the premium required
OF him by regular stock companies.
In case Of a loss the assured in TINS
State would be at the mercy OF this
company, because OF their contract
and an attempt on their part to pro-
vide that they could only be sued IN
the State of Massachusetts,, and this
is made doubly hurtful to the assured
by the fact III their application they
REQUIRE the assured shall appoint the
International Trust company of Bos-
ton, Mass, their attorney, upon whom
all processes may be served by the
company in Massachusetts, Under this
arrangement citizen of this state
could be sued by this company by
making service on the international
Trust company and be bound by what
ever was done in the courts of Mass
achusetts, although they had never re-
ceived any notice of the suit or been
advised even of its commencement.
The commissioner says it is we'll for
the citizens of the State to always bear
ia mind that the thing of prime I'M
portance in all insurance contracts is
their security and the power to enforce
them.
