IT MAKES THE ANGF1.S WEEP.
It does not appear that tlx- ruin
bow-chasing campaign at Washing
ton looking to a trade with the Popu
list leaders for a Democratic and
Populist electoral ticket in this State
has borne much in the way of prac
tical results. The Populists do not
seem to be open to advances of this
sort and appear to be laughing in
their sleeves at the persistent suit
of the Democrats for favor at their
hands. It would seem that this
sort of nibbling lias been indulged
in till it has not only passed the
bounds of patience and common
sense, but it has made the Demo
cratic party a laughing stock.
If the Populists were willing
to enter into a fusion with
Democrats we should not look upon
it with favor. Out i is Pu;.
that Mr. Butler and his co-managers
of the Populist campaign arc just
about as likely to trade with the
Democrats as an Irishman is to eat
tempun'an" alliance "with" them is
visibly and palpably absurd and out
of the question. If it were not pitia
ble it would be laughable. It doubt
less is from the standpoint of Butler
People who sit still and take in the
circus wonder how much further the
joke is going to be carried.
The town of Fitzgerald, in south
west Georgia," which was recently
founded by Union soHiers from the
Northwest, is to havea corn and cot
f9p exposition next month, to con
tinue for fifteen days. Less than a
year ago there, was not a house
erected on the site which is now one
of the most prosperous towns in tin
South, when its population is con
sidered. The enterprising people
of the new town are erecting suita
ble buildings for the exhibit of the
products .
In New York the commissioners
of accounts say that $400,000 is the
amount which the city will have to
pay in rebates to the liquor dealers
whose liceses under the old law had
not expired on July 1 last. The
-Raines law compellcdthe saloon men
to take out new licenses before July
1, but provided that those who had
licenses running beyond that date
should receive back a proportionate
amount of the license free. The
Raines, law, however, did not
l.irovide from what fund this money
should be paid, and the corporation
counsel has been asked to decide.
Something of a row has been raised
between Mr. St. John's Bartholdi
headquarters and the post office,
says the New York World. - A num
ber of people who had been promised
tickets to the Bryan Madison Square
Garden meeting failed tj get them
Oliver Sumner Teall said that the
, tickets had been sent by mail and
-. that if they were not received they
m ust have . been ' stolen. W. G.
Mclaughlin intimated that they
must have been stolen by post office
attaches . Tbe post office peopleare
indignant and deny" that" a single
ticket was lost through thein. The
fact remains, that seven ticket specu
lators sold tickets to every part of.
the garden at prices varying from
50 cents to 15. '
Money Saved

Money Made .
Below are some interesting state
ments by representative citizens of
Raleigh of money saved by them by
insuring in the Southern Stock Mu
tual Insurance Company of Greens
boro, N. C:
Raleigh, N. C., March 10, 1896.
On the 14th day of March, 1895, we
took out a policy in the Southern
Stock Mutual insurance Company of
Greensboro, ifr C. , and paid the com
pany $16.50 and received a return of
20 per cent, dividend, amounting to
$3.30, making total cost of insurance
but $13.20. Same insurance in other
companies cost $16.50.

1 paid $11.25 to insure uiy building
in the Stock Mutual Insurance Com-
?any of Greensboro, N. C, just what
would Lave had to pay in any other
insurance company, and have received
a dividend of 2.2o, thereby reducing
the cost of insurance 20 per cent.
( Signed ) C. G. Latta.
Raleigh, N. C, March 10, 1896.
I paid $1 to insure my building in
the Southern Stock Mutual Insurance
Company of Greensboro, N. C, just
what I would have had to pay in any
other insurance company and have re
ceived a dividend of $1.20, thereby re
ducing the cost of insurance 20 per
cent.

Greensboro, N. C April 1, '96.
Last year we paid the Southern
Stock Mutual Insurance Company
$184.50 for Hre insurance. We have
received notice of dividends to our
credit of $12.30. Our policies are for
three years, and if our dividends for
the next two years are no less than
they were for 1895 (as we have every
reason to expect) the total saving in
the cost of our insurance will be.W6.90,
or 20 per cent of the amount paid.
This strong home company deserves
and will doubtless receive a large pat
ronage from the projierty-holders of
North Carolina.

vidend of 20 per cent". $7, making net
cost of insurance $28; same insurance

panies. (Signed) The National Hank of

F.Ikin, N. ('., March 9, '96.
I paid $47.25 to insure my building
in the Southern Stock Mutual Insur
ance company of Greensboro, just
what I would have had to pay in any
other insurance company, and have
received a dividend of $9 45, thereby
reducing the cost of insurance 20 per

NOTF If you are a policy-holder
of the Southern Stock Mutual Insur
ance Company, or if you expect to he,
you are interested in "the profits of the
company. The larger the number of
select risks the company cab secure,
the larger the profit to policy-holders.
Therefore, if your neighbor has good
property to insure, tell of the advan
tages of insuring in the Southrrn
Stock Mutual Insurance Company.
Hand this statement to some reliable
property-owner who is not a policy
holder. N. 15. When competitors criticise,
remember that they are competitors,
and that we are taking business from
them.
The 20 per cent, return to uoliev
holders for 1895 was made on the first
year's operations, in spite of the com
bined opposition and hostility of com
peting companies and their agents,
and in the faceof more serious diflcul
ties than the Company will ever en
counter again, and it may be counted
upon with reasonable certainty that
the profit to policy holders will" never
be less than it was last year.
This is the only company doing
business in North Carolina whose
policy holders participate in the
profits and at the same time assume
no liability to assesement.

erty in the Southern Stock-Mutual In
