THE FITZSIfinONS JEFFRIES FIOHT. The Fitzsimmons-Jeffries fight in San Francisco was perhaps the most remarkable one on record and the manner of its finish still puzzles sportsmen. Fp to the eight h round when Fit zsiinmons received his knock out blow he had dec idedly tlie better of the fight, punishing Jeffries terribly, bruising his face and break ing his nose. Of Fitzsimmons and his knockout the Savannah AVn--says: If Hob Fitzsimmons has actually retired from the ring, that institution has lost one of the greatest lighters it has ever seen. In his tight with Jeffries he won all of the honors, making the gigantic champion look like a novice, until the time of his fatal over-confidence in the eighth round. And this, it will be borne in mind was the performance of a man nearly 45 years old, and as much as fifty pounds lighter than his antago nist. While one may not admire the line of business Fitzsimmons has leen engaged in all his life, it is im possible not to admire the splendid strength that he has preserved for bo many years in the midst of temp tations.

A Former Superintendent of the State Insane Asylum at Raleigh Sends a Bullet Through His Brain at the Home of His Son In Washington Sad Kndlnz of a Man Well Known in North Carolina History. Washington, July 27. Dr. Kagene Grissom, once well known as an alienist and neurologist, committed suicide here today at his son's home. by sending-a bullet through his Drain. Dr. (Jrisso'ra had been dejected and morose for several weeks and had be come physically and mentally weak ened from the use oi strong narcot ics. He was a native of Granville county, N. C, served on the onieu erate side until wounded during the civil war and afterwards was a mem ber of the State Legislature, tor 21 years he was superintendent of the North Carolina insane asylum at Ral eigh and gained a wide reputation as an alienist and lecturer. Before the American Medical Society he delivered a lecture entitled -'The Borderland of Insanity, " that attracted great atten tion. He was the author of "Tru and False Experts," a work devoted to showing the alleged inaccuracies of the expert testimony in insanity cases. Dr. Grissom was one time lirst vice-president of the American Medical Society and was several times presiding ollicer of the Associa tion of American Asylums. He was the president of the convention or 18XC. He was a iMason oi uigu ue- grer. lie was 4 1 years oiu. THE STATE CONVENTION. Charlotte News. Kvery true Democrat iu North Car olina must feel a thrill of pride when he reviews the State Convention, which met yesterday in Greensboro and concluded its fabois earlv this morniu. In most respects it was the best convention North Carolina Democrats ever held. There was not a single discordant note to mar perfect har mony; not a single contest from pre cinct or county. I he aspirants for nomination were all good men and true; the convention could have made no mistakes. From these aspirants were selected men who are a credit not only to their party but to this great commonwealth; men the people of the State delight to honor; men who stand upou character ana rec ord that look not alone to party feal ty, but whom the disinterested, mm partizan citizen, with an eye single to the good of his State, and the pu rity of its judiciary, may support with confidence. Of the Supreme Court candidates. the cim vention and the people may he justly proud. Justice Walter Clark is a man of whom it may well be said that he possesses the love and the conlidcnce of the people to a wonderful degree. Of uiiinipeached integrity as a jurist, great in charac ter and attainment, a soldier, a jrent leinan and a scholar, the iuter- ests ot the commonwealth, uign ami low alike, are safe in his hands. Naturally Charlotte feels an espec ial pride in one of the candidates for the Assotiate Justiceship Hon Piatt D. Walker. He is universally esteemed at home anil abroad; a man of character and ability, who will adorn as the embodiment of truth and justice the position he is to till. reflecting credit alike upon himself and the city that is proud to claim hini as her own. When one of Judge Connor's friends, in seconding his nomination appealed to the est to name a man fcs near the equal of Connor as thev could tind the name of "Walker rang throughout the hall. Reversing the order it is high enough praise for Judge Connor here in Meckltnburg to say that he is in everyway worthy to sit with Piatt D. Walker on the Supreme bench. In the renominatiou of J. l.Joyner and the selection of E. C. Bedding- held, the delegates displayed the same wisdom that characterized the other nominations. In short, the Democratic party and the entire State has reason to be proud of the convention of 1902; the people should and will go the polls next November and roll up such a majority as the excellence of the ticket placed before them deserves.

Statesville Landmark. The fellow Cocke, who was hanged at Greenville, Mis , Tuesday, seems to have been very much aggrieved when he found that he hail run up against tue law so hard and fast that neither wealth nor influence could save him. By all accounts Cocke was a desperado who had no regard for ine rignis oi oiuers. nue on a drunken spree he and his companions wantonly killed an innocent man who had given them no provocation what ever, but who on the coutrarv was doing his best to get out of the way. Cocke evidently expected that his money and the influence of his fami ly would save his neck, and when he found that he must pay the penalty ue nieu, like ine nog ne was, cursin" everything in sight. The only thing that can be said iu his favor is that he did not follow the usual style and claim that he was going straight to Heaven.

Would it be Accomplished Even With a Democratic Congress? Baltimore Sun. Messks. Editors: I have read with great interest your editorial in the Sun of July 22 on "Tariff Reform as a Practical Political Issue," in which you show the practice of protected industries in carrying American manufactured goods to foreign coun tries and there selling theru for a lit tle more than half what we Ameri cans have to pay for the. same goods. I remember distinctly bearing sena tor Hansom make that statement in a public address as far back as 1887. and he cited the instance of a maker of hay rakes in Detroit selling them in that city for f23 and just across the river in Canada for $11. And I remember Mr. Cleveland's tariff re form message on the same subject. That argument has been rammed into every voter in the United States for years, and they all remember that we Democrats had the Presidency, the Senate and the House in 1893, and after nearly a year of wrangling the party signally failed. Mr. Cleve land said "the deadly blight of trea son blasted the councils of the brave in their hour of might" in his cele brated letter to "My Dear Catching," in which he declared he would not si"n the Wilson-Gorman Tariff bill. .... Suppose there were to be held a Presidential election tomorrow and the Democrats should carry the Presi dency and the House by a majority of 45 and the Senate by a majority of 10, and that Congress should meet at once to execute the commands of the people, so that I could get an Ameri can-made hav rake, or nails, or wire. a typewriter or a coil of rope as cheap ly as the man in Buenos A) res. Bri tain or Berlin. Do you suppose the Congress would do it r Don t you know that protectionist lobbyists would tie up Congress, and the cry of the Chinaman living ou 3 ceuts a day and the pauper labor of Europe and the demands and dignitv ot American labor would resound through the land, ami that Maryland and per haps other border States would lean to the Northward, and linally some acute Democratic statistician would figure out for publication that the Bailey-Richardson and Bryan-some body bill had made a general reduc tion of G 3 4 per cent, from the Ding- lev bill, so that it is now a tariff of 53 1-4 per cent, instead of 60 percent That s about what would become of it, Mr. Editor. There was once a negro Congress man of my district, and he voted in Congress for the McKinley bill. On his return home he called to see me on some business, tor I had ieeii Ins attorney for a longtime. He greeted me with a broad smile, to which I re sponded with pretended or mock in dignation: "Why did you vote for law to make me pay 25 for a coat which without that law 1 could buy for $13?" To this he replied: "Well, counselor, that does look pretty bad, iut there s at least a hundred wa'S of looking at that thing. Mr. Editor, the point was yielded by the protect cd infant industries in 182S, when they agreed to Clay's compromise to reduce it 10 per cent, each year for 10 years. The Supreme Court of the united Mates long ago declared it was unconstitutional and robbery. It is no more nor less than a system by which the manufacturing North keeps the agricultural South in vas salage. If we had a Democratic Con gress and President today I do not believe the tariff would be reduced 10 per cent, below what it now is. If you think it can or will be done. please explain in your editorial how it is to be brought to pass. The peo ple have been ready or willing all the time and now are. The politicians will not permit it. T. T. HICKS. Henderson. N. C, July 22, 1902. A Cure for Cholera Infantum. "Last May," says Mrs. Curtis Baker, of Bookwalter.

Representatives of the Combine Working in Greensboro Trying to Force the Home Companies to Raise the Rate of Insurance Threats Made Against Local Agents and Pol icy Holders Will North Carolini ans Submit to Such Outrageous Treatment? Last week the Gold Leaf had something to sav about the action of the Southeastern Tariff Associa tion the Fire Insuranc-e Trust in advancing rates 2." per cent, and waging war on the Greensboro com panies ( which are not in ttie com bine) because they refused to do so. In this connecting the following which is taken from the Greensboro Record of Saturday will be of inter est: Representatives of the Southeast ern Tariff Association have leen in Greensboro for two days laboring with the home companies to get them to raise the rate of insurance The Greensboro public will be grat ified to know that the home compa nies have withstood the tremendous fressure that ha.s been brought to ear on them and has decided to stand steadfastly by their position and not to charge the 2."i per cent, advance. As a penalty for this de cision the Association companies have forced all their Greensboro agents to surrender the ngenev of le Greensboro companies and to sever all connection with. them. It is said they threatened Messrs. O. W. Carr & Co., I). C. Waddell. Murray iiros. and late & alsii who were agents for both the Association com panics and the Greensboro compa nies and said that unless they sev ered all connection with the Greens boro companies, they would with draw in a bodv irom their agencies or withdraw from Greensboro entire ly, and they were about to put this threat into effect. This meant th utter ruin of the business of these agents in the building: up of which some of them have spent a life-tinif and there was nothing else for them to do but accept the terms of fered and to give up the Greensboro companies. Besides forcing these agents to cancel their contracts with tlie Greensboro companies, these foreign companies have inaugurated a war on the business of the home companies at Greensboro. A thor oughly competent business man will at once be appointed agent of the home companies to take the place of those agents who have been forced to If what was told the Record this morning is true, the Association has g;one even further than this. It is said thev went to several large con cerns here which carry heavy insu rance and told them unless thev made the home companies advance their rates 2."i per cent, they, the As sociation, would cancel all policies held on such risks, leaving them practically witn no insurance whatever. If this is not blackmailing and bulldozing, what do you call it? Here is a man trying to force anoth er to make an insurance company charge him more than the regular rates. Talk about cheek, but this caps the climax. It 's perhaps safe to sav that not a single property owner in Greensboro will be found who will be tempted bv any cut in rates t o withdraw his sup port irom the iireensooro compa nies, and that the people of Greens boro will do as they did in the for mer fight, place with the outside companies no business that the home companies can handle. The people ot lireensboro have made a record for standing together on occasions like this, and the foreign insurance companies are merely butting their heads against a stone wall. The Southeastern Tariff Associa tion has adopted the same tactics in Henderson that they did in Greens boro that of withdrawing connec tion with agencies and destroying business in order to enforce their rules and carry out their mandates Only in the case here cited they have rone just a little further perhaps in their rule or ruin policy and with less cause for it. About one year ago R. S. McCoin and J. L. Currin entered into the real estate and tire insurance bus iness together under the firm name of McCoin & Currin. On the 12th day of hist May they bought the in surance business of Hunter & Cole man and enlarged their business. A that time they represented two of the Greensboro companies and four teen companies in the Southeastern Tariff Association. When the rati war came on they were asked to give up the Greensboro companies or charge the people 2.") per cent, more for their insurance than the compa nies were asking. About the first of July Mr. Currin bought Mr. McCoiif s interest in the insurance business, taking over the old companies, or rather retaining them, while Mr. McCoin took the agency of the Greensboro companies Mr. Currin, immediately after buying Mr. McCoin s interest, wrote his com panies of the purchase and of the dissolution of the firm of McCoin & i - n-,i -currin. inis, at nrst. seemed to meet their approval and several out of the number commissioned Mr Currin individually as their agent. On July 19th the special agents for the Southeastern Tariff Association met in Asheville and the Henderson agency was brought up and dis cussed. As a result of the meeting a spec ial agent was sent to Henderson to interview Messrs. McCoin and Currin. In this interview both R. S. McCoin and J. L. Currin offered to make affidavit that the dissolution of their firm was made in good faith and that neither bad an interest in the business of the other. Whereupon Currin was informed that unless he could control the ac tions of McCoin and have him cease writing insurance for less than the Tariff Companies ask he, Currin would lose his companies. This Currin could not do, and he has since lost all but two of his companies. The Statesville Landmark of the 29th ina timely and well considered editorial on the 'Insurance Rate War and Combines," says: An insurance rate war w hich has long been threatening, is now on in North Carolina. Some time ago the Southeastern Tariff Association, which represents practically all the fire insurance companies doing busi ness m North I arobna except what are known as the Greensboro compa nies, made an advance of 2, per cent, in rates in North Carolina. The Greensboro companies refused to make the advance and the Associa tion threatenened to inaugurate a rate war. The matter hung fire until the latter part of last week when, a final demand on the Greensboro companies to make theadviince hav ing leen refused, the promised rate war was inaugurated with a ven- ince. All agents who handle the business of the Greensboro compa nies have been notified that thev must either cease to represent these companies or the business of the As sociation will be taken from them. Not only that, but persons who carry insurance in the Greensboro companies have leen notified that they must cancel this insurance or they cannot get insurance iu any of the companies represented by the As sociation. This is an effort to coerce with a vengeance ana the outcome wilt De watched with Interest. The Greens boro companies are composed of home people with home capital. They have done quite a large busi ness since their organization several years ago. liecause they do not ally themselves with the Southeast ern Tariff Association and conform to its rules but prefer to do business m their own way, the Association has repeatedly made them an object of attack and has endeavored in one wav or another to injure them and drive them out of business. This last attack is the fiercest yet nuvde and it is an evidence of the growing power of combinations of trusts. Certain business interests combine and all similar business interests are isked to join in the combination. If my refuse an effort is made to de stroy that business. No matter what the opinion of a person or company as to the propriety of the combination; no matter how much they may desire to continue to do business in their own way, they must yield to the combination or take the risk of being crushed and the cha nces are always against them. It does seem in cases of this kind that the public ought to take a band in the crushing out business and di rect its efforts against the combina tion by refusing to give it business, but generally the public doesn't take any special concern in such matters, notwithstanding it is the people who are vitally concerned. It does seem, too, that a law could be enacted which would give some relief in the premises, but so far all attempts in that direction have resulted in prac tical failure. We are no alarmist, but the steady advance of these com binations in all lines of business, threatens the safety of every inde pendent business concern of whatever nature. Any ot us are liable to wake up any day and find that a combine has been formed in the business in which we are engaged, and if our bus iness is of sufficient importance the combine will buy it at its own figure or allow us to enter on terms named by it, no matter how unsatisfactory the terms may be. Either that or be crushed out by the combine. The fruits of years of toil may be thus taken away and those dependent on you may suffer. The combine has no concern about that. If you stand m its wav you must yield peaceably or yield to force. By and by, when the force of the combines is more clearly felt by all the people; when they come m daily contact with their operations and see and realize the miustice. there will be some sort of a revolution and greed will be overthrown.
