Sectlea Two, Friday Ait; 1, 1902 FIGHT AGAINST INSURANCE MONOPOLY. The Southeastern Tariff Association fire insurance monopoly association. since Its compulsory and arbitrary forced advance of 35 per. cent In Insurance rater, has found an obstacle In the Greensboro, N. C, home Insurance com pan lea, which refused to accede to the demands of the Southeastern. Naturally every effort, fair or foul, would be attempted, but the Greensboro companies loyally supported by their own home people have resisted every overture, and contested every assault. As to the means employed by the Southeastern, the following from the Greensboro Record, July 26, will be of Interest. "Representatives of the Southeastern I arm Association have Deen in Ureens boro for two days laboring with the home companies to get them to raise the rate of Insurance. The Greensboro pub lic will be gratified to know that the home companies have withstood the tre mendous pressure that has been brought to Dear on tnem ana nave decided to stand steadfastly by their position and not to charge the xo per cent, advance. As a penalty for this decision the asso ciation companies have forced all their Greensboro agents to surrender the agency of the Greensboro companies and to sever an connection with them. It Is said they threatened Messrs. O. W, Carr & Co., D. C. Waddell, Murray Bros, and Tate & Walsh, who were agents for both the association compa nies and tne ureensooro companies and that unless they severed all connection with the Greensboro companies, they would withdraw In a body from their apencies or withdraw from Greensboro entlrely.and they were about to put this threat Into effect. This meant the utter ruin of the business of these agents in the buiding up of which some of them have spent a life time, and there was nothing else for them to do but to accept the terms offered and to give up the Greensboro companies. Besides forcing these agents to cancel their contracts with the Greensboro companies, these foreign companies have Inaugurated a war on tne business of the home com panies at Greensboro. If what was told The Record this morning is true, the as sociation has gone even further than this. It Is said they went to several large concerns here which carry heavy Insurance and told them unless they made the home companies advance their rates :so per cent, they, the association would cancel all policies held on such risEB, leaving them practically with no insurance. If this Is not blackmailing and bulldozing, what do you call It f Here Is a man trying to force another to make an insurance company charge him more man tne regular rates." THE FARMER TO BE ENVIED. While no new statistics are needed to prove that the farming interest Is the real backbone of the country, and to gauge the country's real prosperity, crop conditions must be regarded as the great factor, yet it 'Is not without profit to look over compilations of figures regard' Ing the farmer's growing wealth. And in this connection the following from The Financier, shows how vast It the following wealth of this country, and that the farmer, as a class, was never so prosperous as at the present time. : The Financier says: The farmer, so far as actual wealth Is concerned, Is the capitalist of the United - States. The Census Bureau report on the value of farming property of the country, Issued last week, estimates that the 6,730,657 farms of the United States are worth $16,674,690,347. Of ) this amount 13,560,198,191, or 81.4 per cent, represents the value of buildings, and $13,114,493,056, or 87.6 per cent, the value of land and Improvements. Farm Implements and machinery are worth $761,861,550, and live stock ( $3,078,050,- ' 041, making the total farming wealth over 80,514 million of dollars. This is undoubtedly a very low estimate, but accepting it as correct, other forms of Industry pale beside It in comparison. The value of the railway systems of the United States, approximating 200,000 ' miles, Is abnt 1 1 800 million dollars, counting ixm.u nn. i stock capitalization, f r hnl!"tHl1l..dM.r ilttlTthft farm I no maltH 'The ralU .i.i fact, constitute the only single tndusi i y which approaches even remotely the stupendous totals revealed by the census enumeration of farming . wealth. .

OPENING OF THE TOBACCO SEASON. The tobacco season opens here, tomor row, August 1st, and It can be said that ever has the Mew Bern market been so wen eqnlpped and prepared to handle tkla product. , With two warehouses open this year, each with ample floor room, fine stable room for the farmers accommodations, and with buyers representing Important manufacturing Interests, the tobacco fanner will find the New Bern market an unusually attractive one this season While the warehouse people may be the ones most directly benefitted by good tobacco season, yet there Is general profit for this entire community, on ac count of this local tobacco market. This being true, every help possible should be given by the local merchants to attract tobacco to this market, which can be done by nearly every one, as all have Interests In the country. The New Bern market has always been a good one for the farmer. There have been fine accommodations given all comers, and the price paid for tobacco has always been a good one. This season the farmer with tobacco tosell will find the New Bern market the place to Bell his product, even better than In years past. How's This?

Ralxior, July 29. Insurance Com missioner Young left today for Windsor to look after the prosecution of three. men in aa Interesting and Important case. Last March the store of a man named C. E. Collins, at Qultsna, Bertie county, was burned. He collected the insurance, f 1,00 1. Suspicion was ex cited and this has led to three arrests of Collins, Stalllngs his clerk, and Bar ren, his nephew. In the course of I preliminary Investigation by Commie sloner Young, it was sworn by four wit' n esses that Harrell had confessed that the goods were ruined and the store set afire, kerosene oil being used, the plan being to secure the. Insurance. Regarding the rumor that Democratic State Chairman Simmons would retire and J. R. Young succeed him, the' latter said today that It was the first he had heard of It and that he trusted Mr. Sim mons would not decline re-election; that he.wat the very man for the place; that of course he recognized the fact that Mr, Simmons would have to make sacrifices to continue ss chairman.

The report on the public schools of Robeson county, received today by the State Superintendent says there are 1764 Croatan Indian children of school age, but of them only 771 are attending the schools provided for that race. It Is said these Croatans often marry at as early an age as 15 years. Your correspondent asked State Treas urer Lacy for some facts regarding the borrowing by the State of $200,000 In New York. The treasurer says "The law allows us to Issue bonds to pay the In terest ou our debt, and as the Interest on our 4 per cent bonds is $143,634 an nually we did not desire to make a per manent debt, but simply borrowed the money for 12 months at 4 per cent. When we pay 3 of the semi-annual pay. ments of the 4 per cent bonds It will amount to $14 000 over the $200,003 which we borrowed. If we had Issued bonds they would have had to run until 1910, but this note only runs until March 13, 1903. But for this loan the schools and the iDsane asylums would have been crippled, for the Interest on the debt must bo met at any cost. It had been reported to us that there were se veral hundred Insane In the jails and as we had adopted the franchise amend ment and pledged cveiy child an educa tion and the legislature had made pledg es for these purposes and as the receipts from the taxes would not allow us to pay we did what we thought the State desired and borrowed the money. If treasurer Smith, my predecessor, had not sold bonds to the amount of $147, 000 there would have been a deficit of $47,000 ln the treasury." Saves a Woman's Life.
