CITY COUNCIL.
o.

The city council met in adjourned
session last night with all aldermen
present and Mayor George Goodman
presiding. The minutes of last meet
ing were read and approved.
Mayor Goodman then introduced p.
S Taylor. horticultural inspector for
the county, who addressed the coun-
eli in regard to the protection Of the
city trees.
Mr. Taylor, who is modest in re
spect to his qualifications, but none
The less positive, said that he had
made a cursory examination of the
shade trees of this city and approved
of the varieties selected as well adapt
ed to climate and soil. He added that
they were badly affected with ants
and other insects which would result
are now such an ornament to Du-
range. He stated that this condition
had started with the young trees which
were doubtless infested with eggs

and multiplied rapidly, thus spreading
The pest.
Mr. Taylor said he was sure that
the council appreciated the necessity
Of saving from destruction the trees
in which the citizens take so much
pride. 1t was unfortunate that the
matter had been neglected so long,
since If attended to in the beginning
the cost would have been very little.
Even now the expense will not be
heavy in comparison with the loss OF
the trees.
The speaker went on to say that the
cents per tree. The work of exter-
mination cannot be completed In one
season, but could, he thought, in two.
He suggested that the city employ
man for this work who Is fitted by
education, experience and interest
one who likes the work and is anxious
10 make 1t a success. He said he
could hardly undertake the job him
"'Ai ipi itA'h VI Alliltf buA II Aht NlAg
employed the right kind of man he
would give two or three days of his
lime gratis in order to start the work
properly.
Mr.. Taylor again urged the council
to take up the matter, explaining that
in case they failed to attend to the
preservation of the trees, the state
law compels him to see that it Is
done, and at a much greater cost.
He discussed the different kinds Of
pumps, the spray costing $40 or $50
The force pump at about $780, and the
power sprayer costing not more than
5000. The liquid costs from rs cents
to 81 per gallon, a gallon being suffi-
cient for ten or twelve trees. He
then explained the method by which
The insects are destroyed and, in clos
ing. said that our trees are too valu-
able, for many reasons. to lose.
Just at this point there was terri
nc blare from the hall that made
everyone jump and then the band
played their prettiest, which naturally
stopped the council proceedings until
they got through with their serenade
After the band had been applauded
and had departed, the council decided
10 refeSS the matter Of the trees to
the paiy committee. and Mr.. Taylor
was asked to be present at the next
meeting of the council in order that
the subject may be fully discussed
and necessary action taken.
The regular order OF business wal
then taken up, and the council pro
ceeded to elect a mayor pro tenn, with

INSURANCE RULE
is EXPLAINED
Commissioner SquireS Issues a
Statement EIuCidating For
mer Notifications.

Colonel George B. Squires, state in
surance commissioner, has issued a
statement calling attention to the neces-
sity for insurance solicitors having Ii
censes and explaining previous state
ments made from his Office. Colonel
Squires' statement follows:
1.-THE attention of this department has
been called to the fact that marked
copies of the daily papers containing the
insurance commissioners warning con-
corning unlicensed insurance solicitors
have been sent to various insurance
agencies. The papers were not sent by
this department.
In order that the position of the COM
missioner of insurance regarding this
matter may be fully understood, so far
as it affects insurance firms, agents and
sub-agents. the following explanation is
made: When a license is issued in the
name of a firm, it authorizes all actual
bona fide members of that firm to So
Hcit insurance, deliver policies and make
collections, and to do any other thing
legitimately pertaining to the insurance
business. If, however, the firm engag es
sub-agents, who are not regular mem
bers Of the firm, each one of such agents
must obtain from the insurance depart
ment a license for each company repre-
scented. The fee for each license so is
sued is 81.
THE same rule holds good where an
individual agent engages sub-agents.
The sub-agent should not be led to be-
lieve that the license issued to the firm
or the individual employing him also
authorizes him to transact business. He
is just as amenable to the law as the
firm or person employing him.
Paragraph 6 of section q of the in
surance code provides that every per-
SON soliciting insurance must be IL
censed. a person as the term is here
used may be an individual, or a cor
poration created by law. A license is
sued to the corporation covers all bona
fide members of the corporation all
other persons soliciting insurance must
have Individual licenses"
