Have you ever studied thc now craze justly called the "damage suit industry?" A man or child may get hurt in a railroad acci dent-suit is brought at once for damage, and the nmount iu every instance is excessive. A man may walk on the track or got drunk and lie down on the track and get killed, and his won derfully sorrowing relatives at onco start suit lor $10,000 or $20, 000. If a railroad or other corpora tion be guilty of oriuiiual careless ness they should be made to suf fer for it, but if uo blame attach es, and are not responsible for the damages done they should not be forced to pay for it. Tho cra/.e, though outrageous, is last becoming fashionable. Why, because with some it is an easy way to get money. Yes, but is it right? Is it squarely houest to get money in that way ? Study tho question squarely and let con science answer, J8?T A "Fire Policy" on your Home means contentment, com fort and protection. See us today CROSLAND & TYSON "Thu Insurance Men.' Early Morning Fire. On Monday morning about 4 o'clock, the barn and stables on the Mrs Cannon premises, occu pied by Mr. Benton Pearson in West Bennettsville were burned together with a lot of forage, a lot ol' tool*, and all his poultry. The origin of the blaze is a mys tery. Fortunately prompt as sistance prevented other build ings from catching, as the roofs were well covered with snow and no wind. The loss is about $250, with no insurance. Mr. Pearson's loss is about $25. A New Industry. The Rockingham Anglo Saxon tells of a large Brick Plant near Gibson, winne good brick are made with lime and sand-0i> per cent of sand and f> per cent of lime. Now, why should we send off for brick, when these materials can be obtained right at home in abundance Suitable points are available on each of the railroads. We should invite cajntal to invest.
