A writer in the Manufacturers' Rec ,rd contributes some very valuabli and interesting information on th< subject of fire insurance premium! paid by the south. The magnitude o the fire insurance business as a finan cial enterprise is placed next to lif insurance, which is not dwelt upon 'a all in the article. A table is exhibite< giving the net cash premiums receiv~ 'ed for the year 1904 as set forth in th< sworn reports of the various fire in surance companies to the insuranc <department of the twelve souther1 states, formerly comprising th "Southern Confederacy." Out of th total income of stock companies, $35, 308,241, the southern companies di, a business of only $2,949,935, or 8. per cent. of the whole, leaving 9!. per cent., or $32,558,306, to be trans acted by. non-resident companies. T'he writer admits that while thi large sum of $32.558,3o6 is primaril shipped away, the bulk of it eventua) ly comes back to the south in the wa of losses, the companies retainin only. a reasonable percentage as the. umderwxriting profit for their risk an trouble. However, he adds that thi 49+__________ 9 enware, * K chenlJ * sa++A is true, and it is not true: He contin tes: -These premiums are cash in ad ance to cover periods running tre gnently as long as five years, and thec laws of practically every state declare hat wn1v a pr. rata .f such premiums are earned fior the actual time elapsed, so companies are compelled to charge themseleves wit. uneraned premiums as a liabiltiv which the law says real *y belongs to the policy-holder as a re-insurance reserve. Such reserves amount practically to about 75 per eent. Of premiums annualy reported so ..j o f the S32.5S8.306 rceivedl by.1 f-he the n,rn-resident companies owe the tthernl p)eCple S24.428.730. ''r in round figures. S2j.000.000. which large t umn these companies have the use of;t ree f ail interest charges. .\nl cnclude wtih the fllowin. .1.! : se cli'1i 1a )reit'tlice " 'c~ l?=1 C'.i ;O .le is: .\re we ilot runs enough. honest enough and. ca pable ;eough to take care of the bulk of our own fire insurance busi ness in the south and retain at home millions of money we are now ship -ping axay for unearned premiums, and p1ae the same in our own banks and- truts .coi;iies for the use of onr nI3 ection. I am positively eerab we are. Southern people are generally com ing to reflect seriously on these things. but they are slow to act. Year after year we are paying out millions of dollars in life insurance premiums, both fire and life, and near ly all of it goes north. It would be I well enough if the south lacked the J brains and the energy and the oppor tunity to carry on business in in surance, but that is not the case. We have in the south god life insurance companiec and good fire insurance companss, worthy of every confi t dence, and yet the people of the south prefer to bestow their patronage on northern concerns. The time is no more when it is necessary for the south to run to the north for every thing she needs. It was not long ago when the south sent north for al-' manufactured products. But that condition has changed and we now f have factories of all kinds, and in _ stead of buying everything from the north, as we once did, we are now t selling the north, east and west man ( ufactured goods. And the tendency to develop along those lines is grow ing very fast. -It will not be long before the peo-j epie of this section learn that the fire Sand life insurance companies of this section of the south are worthy of their patronage. The money Lhat is kept in the south helps to enrich the the south, and the money that is sent away is taking that much away from the progress of the south. We have nothing to say against the insurance companies of the north that are doing Sbusiness in the south. The majority~ of them are all right and worthy of confidence and we do not blame them in the least for seeking business wher ever they can get it. But we are in favor of helping the southern compa nik - d, by so doing, helping our Sselves in many ways.
