Mutual Insurance Companies.

State Insurance Commissioner Nc
Master has given several mutual fire
insurance companies of the State the
strongest kind of endorsement. We
agree with the Anderson Mail that
the mutual companies, when properly
and economically managed, furnish
safe prediction to property holders
at minimum of cost. And not only
that. they keep the money paid for
insurance premiums at home. Here
tofore most Of the money paid for
insurance has gone out Of the State,
and it has amounted to terrible
drain.
The experience with the mutual
fire insurance companies ought to
encourage the mutual life insurance
companies. There are several OF
these companies in the State that
are doing good work, furnishing life
insurance at low cost. But there
ought to be more of them.
The old line insurance companies
are splendid for investment, and

Roosevelt and Hearst.

The New York Evening Post, Re-
publican, thus comments on Mr..
Hearst's recent visit to the White
House: "The president of the Unit
ed States is entitled to choose his
own friends. But it is not infring-
ing upon his prerogatives to ask that
he show due regard for both the
dignity and the moral influence of
the White House." These Mr.. Roose-
Welt ignored when he received Will
liam R. Hearst in secret and friend
Iy interview. When this same
Hearst was running for the COVER
norship Of New York, two years
ago, this same president sent his
secretary Of State to denounce him
in un1neasured terms as an accessory
before the fact of McKinley's assas-
sination. And this is the man who
is now welcome at the White House;
1t was no mere question Of allowing
him to come with others in public
to pay his respects In such a way,
Gov. Hughes once admitted Hearst al
Albany. That was also sort Of OBJ
legation of courtesy to the defeated
candidate. But to affifm openly
that you consider man no better
than an assassin, and then to hold
familiar intercourse with him, and
allow it to be given out that you
count upon "closer relations" with
him, may help to rehabilitate him,
but what does it do for you? 1t
certainly shows that you have no
moral scruples in associating with
any man whom you think you can
use." That seems to us to cover
the ground completely. We cant
think Of a single thing that ought to
be added to 1t.

His Beloved South.

In one Of his speeches Editor
Edward Ward Carmack, who wa
most cowardly assassinated in tn
streets of Nashville, Tenn, by po
litical thugs, thus refers to his be
loved South, the land Of his birth:
The South is a land that has
known sorrows; it is a land that
has broken the ashen crust and
moistened it with it's tears; land
SCARED and riven by the plow-
share Of war and billowed with the
graves Of her dead; but land of
legend, a land of song, land of
hallowed and heroic memories.
To that land every drop Of my
blood, every fiber Of my being,
every pulsation of my heart is
consecrated forever. I was born
of her womb; I was nurtured at
her breast, and when my last
hours shall come, I pray God that
I may be pillowed upon her bosom
and rocked in sleep within her
tender and encircling arms.
The martyred editor devoted hi:
life and talents to building up the
land he loved so we'll, and he no"
sleeps sweetly "pillowed upon hel
bosom" Let us pray for more such
men as Edward Ward Carmack.

Should Be Looked After.

A thing too frequently overlooked
in our public schools is the literary
feature: "Speakin', essay writin'
and SIGH" The attainment of hap
PLY expressing ones thoughts and
vividly portraying with pen the oe'
currences that meet us is rare-al-
most the eption-yet but few
things are more advantageous; and
lack of thisfi though wise and
learned in many things, places one
at great disadvantage in life, while
lack of this, though wise and
proficient in this one particular, will
carry the possessor further on the
way to success than aught else.
The time for acquiring this meg
lected feature is often begun too
late in life, when embarrassments be-
come too great to be overcome.
When he is mastering his monosylla-
bles let him acquire the faculty Of
telling what he knows and sees in
monosyllables, and let this be his
daily, not weekly or monthly task,
and his graduating effort, while il
will be his best, it will not be sort
of spasmodic, unnatural effort for
the occasion, never again to be at
tempted in life.

In fact, J. G. Wannamaker Mfg.
Co., the druggists, have wonder
fully efficient hair restorer called
partisan Sage which costs oily SO
cents a bottle that Is guaranteed
to cure dandruff in two weeks or
money back.
Partisan Sage is the discovery OF
one of the worlds greatest scien-
lists, who, knowing the value Of
Sage as a scalp cleaner and hair
restorer, combined it with other in
gradients in proper proportions, and
the result is the most wonderful
hair tonic in the world.
Partisan Sage is most pleasant,
daintily perfumed hair dressing, and
besides curing dandruff, your drug
gist will return your money If it fails
to stop falling hair or intching of

men who desire soft, beautiful and
Iuxuriant hair can have it in two
weeks by using this famous, quick
acting preparation. The ]. G. Wan
namaker Mfg. Co. sells it under a
guarantee. You take no risk.
Don't let any druggist tell you
he has something just as good az

The Irony OF Fate.

Speaking of the "irony of fate, y
perhaps the story that comes FROM
North Carolina is about the best eX-
ample of it that has come to public
notice for some time. The Green's
boro Industrial News is the only Re-
publican daily newspaper published
in North Carolina, and during the
late Presidential | election claimed
that the way to secure prosperity
was to elect Taft. Taking this fact
in connection with its name it seems
strange that the Industrial News
should be in financial straits. But
recently, since election, creditors
made application to Judge James E.
Boyd Of the United States court fo:
the application of a receiver. Judge
Boyd granted the application and
appointed w. L. Underwood receiv-
er. Mr.. Underwood announces that
the publication will be continued
and the vice president of the Indus
trial Publishing Company declares
that the business will be re-organiZ-
ed and put upon sound basis.

ing liquor about a year ago, and that
there had been bad blood between
the men ever since. The Anderson
Mail wants to know what was the
president of Law and Order League
doing with a pistol in his, pocket:
Isn't that just about the limit? Can
a man who carries a pistol, which is
an unlawful act, plead self defense?
The law says that the man who
pleads self defense must come into
court with clean hands. Can Timer

there is no need to antagonize them.
We wish there were several of these
companies in the State, so that mon
ey paid for these policies could be
kept in the State.
But there is room for more OF
the mutual companies, and they
ought to be encouraged. The people
of the State are every year sending
great sums of insurance money out
of the State that ought to be kept
at home, and if we had more of the
mutual companies this money would
be kept at home, and more people
would be enabled to carry life insur-
ance who are now unable to do so.

published communication from

Dr. Wilcox does not accept th =

sponsible for the decrease in the
birth rate.
He said: "The true reason for
the fall in the birth rate is that in
modern times, mainly in the last
half-century, births and the birth
rate have come under the control Of
the human will and choice in a sense
and to a degree never before true.
"This power to control increase

far too little with due consideration
