It Is , generally thought,, that there has been a great falling oft m the amount of life in surance -business written, I am in- 1 dined to thing this will- not be as & great to generally supposed. The re t ports for the home companies for the finst Six months, ending June 30th, 1905 show.- a great Increase in - buelnees. They reported as received during 1904 ;for the first six months $47,671.89. while for the first six months of 1905 -f they reported for receipts $92,673.41, al- most double. . , Of course X cannot tell what their receipts will be for the six l months ending Dec. " 31, 1905 as their reports are not -yet In. but I take It they will show as great or greatatln;. 3 There Is no doubt that you are cor rect In. your supposition that there has been a greater increase in the amount of insurance written in. this, State and in your belief that this Increase has extended . largely -into the rural dls- triets. Some years ago, about 1880. i "lTr ' .heard a tromlnent business man from '' the 'central 'portion of New York say J" ' the great difference in the continued ; t . rroDerlty in that section agatnst the .',v tfouth at that time, was largely due to ' the fact that up there they kept their : : lives ana their property weci insured ' And the result was w property was ' ' destroyed by fire It was replaced and if a man died his family had sufficient .' to live upon and -k0ep together in Kv stead of being scattered or being da ". pendent upon the puWkj charity. -, ."The year ot 1906 Is said to have ,r,. been an. average successful year for ''L the ; fire insurance buslnesa It has - heen an eooch fear in the life lnsur- s ance "business, caused by the great up '''' Sxeavats fn the business.

'Without DebateSenator Talbert Introduces Bin to Abolish Dispensary Bill Giving Governor Power to Remove Sheriffs Killed, -Z "" " Observer Bureau, "- " ' " , 1209 Main Street ' Columbia. S. C Jan. 13, . ' in the , Senate to-day Senator Tal bert introduced three dispensary bllla One is-to close up the bustness of the dispensary entirely, to sell all It has in property of whatever character, and to give the proceeds to the public school. The Governor, attorney general, sec retary ef i State, - comptroller general and liquor commissioners are appoint ed a commission to carry out tne pro vision of the bill. The second bill in stitutes prohibition throughout the State, being a duplicate tor the Childs bill of 1892. The third Is amending the constitution wherein the dispensary Is recognised as a fundamental part of the laws of the State. A concurrent resolution Introduced by - Senator - Carlisle was adopted memorialising Congress to . pass the proposed new judicial circuit bill. . ' The Joint committee to Investigate and report on the biennial session bill reported that the amendment -be not ratified. ' ' - No. action was taken on the report, but It, will be printed and disposed of later. A similar report was made to the. House. In the House to-day Mr. Josh Ash ley ' Introduced a bill to abolish the department . of agriculture and immr- gration; and ' to devolve the duties of that office on the secretary of State and clerk of the historical commission. Mr. LaFltte'a bill to give the Gov ernor power of removal In case of neglect of duty on part of sheriffs was killed after- a brief debate. The author made a strong speech in favor ot the bill. The main objection to the bill seems to' have been voiced by Mr. Herbert, who said suspension gave In fact the right of trial. The vote was 80 to 33 v One of the surprises of the day was the passage of Mr. Sanders' bill pro hibiting, so-called bucket shops.
