ers the people will demand that these
abuses shall be corrected. And in
this State every effort of this depart
ment and of our State authorities will
be used to provide by proper laws
that only companies can do business
in this State and receive money from
our citizens who can and do show that
their management is not only sound
but clean and free from all wrong
practice and abuse especially such as
have been shown to have crept into
the business.
II am watching carefully every de-
VelOpment and hope to be in the posi-
ton to recommend to the Legislature
such legislation as in my opinion and
judgment shall be best and necessary
to protect TO the fullest the citizens
of this State, who have or may become
in the various insurance
companies. OF course we want moth
ing that is unjust but we wish and
must and will have such laws as are
necessary for a proper protection of
our citizens.

NOW WHAT'LL MIR. ROLLINS DO?
Editor Robert Il Candidate for the
PoStmastcrship at Ashevilie. Now
Held by Mr. RaTinS' Father
Especial TO News and Observer

Especial 10 News and Observer
Asheville. y. c.. Nov. 20.-Another
surprise has been sprung in this part
of the moral vineyard by the an
nOuncement today of the candidacy of
r. Il. Roberts for appointment as post
master Of AsheVille to succeed the
present incumbent, Major w. w. Roll
ms. father of Republican State Chair
man Thomas s. Rollins: and there is
much speculation as to the prabable
effect of this candidacy on Republican
household affairs.
Mr.. Roberts is editor of the Ashe-
Vile Register, which has for some
years been recognized as the Republic
can organ of the Tenth District. In
fact so far as is known, Mr.. Roberts
has all his life been perfectly regular
until a few weeks a"o when some par
agraphs published in the Washington
correspondence of the Greensboro In
dustrial News of a nature very COM
plimentary to Marion Butler. provoked
a most unkind stab of his editorial
pen. On this occasion referred to the
organ Of the ''ins." he made the dis
comfitting assertion that now as
three thousand years ago, ''the OK
knoweth his owner. and the ass his
masters crib"
The question here is what will State
appointment. His father, Major Roll
ins. whose second term expires IN a
few weeks. IS understood 10 be a can
didate for the appointment to the
postmastership, but when appointed
to his office the State chairman gave
assurance that in al! cases he would
defer to the wishes of the county COM
mittees in making such appointments.
Mr. Rollins is not only chairman of
the county committee but is reported
to have the endorsement of a majority
of the committee, and this being true,
it IS pointed out that Mr.. Rollins must
either appoint him or break faith.
Mr.. Roberts application may also
have a direct bearing on the reputed
candidacy of the State chairman for
appointment to the district attorney
ship; for If Mr.. Roberts is passed over
to reinstate Chairman Rallins' father.
it is suggested that the powers that be
may not favor an effort to land for
the family so fat a job Gs the district
attorneyship.
