The Balkan Trouble.

What appeared in the outset of the
Balkan War to be coalition between
four weak nations to beat off an enc
my that had practically enslaved them
for decades is proving to be a game
of selfish greed.
Neither Bulgaria, Greece, Servia
nor Montenegro could have conquered
the Turks single-handed but by act
ing a unit the four weak nations have
been able to win a decisive victory.
But it seems the greed for possessions
and the crave for place is about to
turn victory into defeat. It is a clear
enunciation of the results that follow
in the wake of all selfshness.

Fraternal Insurance.

The question of Fraternal Insur-
ances is becoming one OF the absorb
ing topics of the day. 1t is to be ex-
pected that the Industrial and Old
Life Insurance Companies will oppose
Fraternal Insurance, but the people
are the beneficiaries from this kind
Of protection, and for this reason
alone any opposition from any source
whatsoever will be stubbornly re-
sisted.
Fraternal Insurance has reached
that point where it is considered one
of the potent factors in the life of
the people, and if the will of the peo-
pie were to be allowed to take its
course. this kid of insurance would
never be disturbed But this will not
he, in fact it is not so now. We sub
NIT that every safeguard should be
thrown around the peoples interests,
hut in face of the facts we do not see
the need of such high rates for en-
dowment insurance.
On another page will be found an
address by Mr.. William Alexander,
the National Grand Master of the Mo
sale Templars of America. We invite
the attention of our readers to this
address, wherein the famous Mobile
Bill lis discussed at length. Mr.. Alex
lander makes the serious charge that
the insurance commissioners Of the
various states will insist that Negro
fraternal orders pay double the rate
decided upon at the Mobile Confer
ence. Such a discrimination would be
very unfair, and yet the question
arises, Will the men who are at the
head of these organizations submit TO
such a discrimination? 1t is shown
in the report of Mr. Alexander that
his Order can thrive on tine rate of
$1.93 1-S per hundred Some Orders
are not charging rate this high, but
the fact that the insurance companies
are eGdeavoring to have the rate
raised is sufficient reason why the
leaders should look into this matter
fully.
