li»hed rates of asScaMuent 1 tiAcd upon
these very identical Atnertcatf experience
tobies which President Winston tells us
more than cover the rtWtuaty experi
ence of hi* (otppany. We harl faket
these tables as furnishing the maximum
of mortality, and baring our calculations
upon them, have decLred aud do declare
that our assessments are limited to six a
yea*.”
'T do not quite understand you,” said
the reporter.
“Well, let me make myself more
cleor,” replied President Walker. “Tlv
old line companies admit that tho Ameri
can experience tables cover the actual
mortality | aud yet they proceed !o
ebarge for insurat'cc a price Watty in
consistent with those tables. Tbu Equit
able Company, for example, charges at
the age of thirty-five yenrs S2G.38 pur
annum fer cash $1,000 of insurance —
We fix our assessment* for persons thir
ty-five years of age at $1 92, and figuring
upon the basis of these same American
tables are able to say that six assuss-
ments nt this figure is the maximum ilmt
can bo required. As a matter of fact,
am) I invito your attention particularly
to tins point, experience has shown os
during the past t^o year* And a half that
just $4.4(5, per annum was necessary to
be assesik d upon each person of the age
of thirty-five years for each $1,000 of
insurauoo, and only $t.4G a year tins
consequently been assessed. This as
sessment, moreover, includes and bos
included the setti< g aside of 25 percent,
of all monsy collected to constitute a
'trust’ or reserve fund which goes to the
liquidation of death claims in exousa of
those provided for by our rate of assess
ment, which is based, a* I have told you,
op the Auwricsu experience tablei. T*
be brief, it has cost every man ot the age
of thirty-five years just $4.4(5 a rear to
curry a 81,000 certificate iu the Mutual
Trust Fund Life Association against
$2(5 08 s year for the tame antotftitof mm
surauee at the aaaie sga iu the old lino at

Ti soundetl mighty easy like, so I
signed the cussed thiug snd star-

them mortgages are curious tilings. I
hadn’t tnoie’u got up the red hill go
ing home before 1 commenced to think
of what I wanted to buy apd wbat 1
needed and thelofersl thing made me
think of things that 1 must have that
I had never wanted before. You eee
I always had money nn hand to buy
what me and the old woman wanted,
and I had fought ehy of debt nil my
life, bur ail the iftlghbors was a trying

nnd I thought I would go in for a lit
tle too Well, I did.
*1 kept on wanting things, and 1 kept
on getting things. We all got along
fine, nnd Sharpuian sold the old wo
man lots of nice things that we never
had wanted before, but that We was
bound to have after I signed the’crap
ping mortgage.’ They breed wants,
they do.
‘Atjast the crop came In. I sent
two or three bales of cotton down to
the store to pay It off, as bharptnnn
said to do t but It dida’t do It. 1 then
sent down all my fodder, but that did
not do It. 1 talked the matter over
with the old woman, and got up all
her ducks and chickens and eggs, and
I sent down all the corn I had made,
aud that didn’t do it; so I just got on
my h Tso and rode down to the store
to see about It 1 looked at whst we
bad bought on paper, all figured up,

ThkColcukd In >up*.—The PhllatTe!-
phia Press Is worried about the demo
cratic pnrty and the negro. It Is very
much distressed, fot Instance, because
there were only two companies of col
ored troops In the grand proocselon
that followed Prenfdeiit Cfovefand to
the capitol and witnessed the ioaugu
ration. The Free* then goes on to
state that the vast majority of negroes
iutbeaotnh eoffiffrtrt to cling to tbs
republican party. So far as we know,
n body h is ever disputed of this. The
vast majority of negroes lu the south
are republicans, but they are sps'het-
le republicans. They no longer fl ck
to the polls to vote the republican tick
et, for the reaeon that they have learn
ed that their condition Is just ss com
fortable under a democratic tia under
a republican administration.
This Is certainly true with respect to
Geornlo. When the democrats rescued
'he stale from the plundering repubti
cans, the negrtavt were uneasy for a
month or so, but they soon Milled
tlown to work, and have Iveu aectfmti-
lutitig property rd<1 acquiring homes
ever since. Those t hat de* Iro to vote
go to the polls and vote on election
day, hot the great ra*j >rfty go about
thelf business. The result ic that
there Is never much of a contest be
tween the ilemofTstlc find repulican
port] s in Georgia, arid the negroes
are better off than If they insisted on
going to the polls an I Voting Dad nun
Into office. They afe not democrats,
perhaps, but they are good enough de
mocrats to suit the purposes of those
who desire to place good roeu in the
teeponriblC offices.
Whether the colored cltiz ns, finding
that democratic rule ie l»etter fuf them
and for their race—better fof their
progress and prospority—will become
democrats we do hot know. The Cjties
tion Is an Interesting one. The answer
thereto, In our opinion, will be decisive
as to the capacity of the negro for
rightly appreciating the resprofislbltti^s
of dtizunshlp. Certainly n.) pressure
will be brought to bear on him to bring
him Ifrto the democratic party. He
has his choice In the matter, as every
other citizen has.—Atlanta Constitu
tion.
Hao'od's Bat.—Governor Hagood
has turned nut to be a veritable phi-
lanlitftyplsf, while growing rich. Hav-
Ing laid aside official honors be devot
es his energies to the raUing of Ber
muda grans, which is cut, baled and
sent here to such of osr needy farmers,
as can glva the propof security on
which to get credit, dur own lands
are just as good as Governor Hegood's
but we neglect to plant ours, while he
gives the proper attention to his. He
Is growing rich selling our farmers
wbat they could grow as well as be
can.—Abbeville Frees and Banner.
Dhivk a pro RtoiiT Hrmt.—Mr. Allen
C. Edwards, one of the most successful
farmers of Georgia, says, by actual ex
periment, that one bale of 500 Ibi. of
good lint to the acre, costs between 8
and 4 cents per pound. One bale to 2
acres, costs between 7 and 8 cents per
pound ; and one bale to 3 acres, coeta
10 cents per pound And over $ and a
tike proportion with all other crops.
This accounts for the profit And loss
in the cotton crop. Any former who
can see bis nose, can see the ruin that
is ahead, if be persists in the many
acre and few bales system of raising
cotton., The remedy is—quit It,

The Philadelphia Pfeos thinks that
tbs employment of women In cieriool

times. It fffdiOates, the Press thinks,
the disappearance of tho mean, super

The weather borean haa been very

yeais, butthe average will be about
the eame. The present year shows
the coldest average during the pres
ent c utury. Such weather prophets
as Tice, Yeunor and Wlgglus are not
entitled to respect. There Is no way
of forecasting the weather beyond for
ty eight hours, and It is utterly Impos
sible to foretell the character of the
coming summer.
