NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Greers Observer Is the name of
a new paper just started at Greers.
The initial number is very creditable
indeed. To us the most interesting
article was under the head of “A
Word of Business.” If the publish
ers will stick to the precepts laid
down they will succeed beyond theii
fondest expectation. We wish Tin.
Observer well.

Local self-government was w’hat
the patriots of the South gave up
their lives for in 1801-65. It is the
purest of Democratic doctrine. Yet
Senator Tillman says that a county
should not be permitted to settle the
whiskey question for itself. We don’t
care what the Senator says, we have
settled it for ourselves and we are
satisfied with the settlement.

The Virginia and North Carolina
Press Associations met at Asheville
l^si week. Among those present were
also a third of a dozen from South
Carolina. We wanted to show our
V.-S 7 . C. friends that there were no
hard feelings between us, and there
are none yet, even if we were carried
to Mr. Vanderbilt’s cow stables and
served with lunch. George is some
what democratic, but we confess that
we cannot reconcile ourself to the
freak fad of lunching with his blooded
bulls. All in all the occasion was a
pleasant one and the pleasure of meet
ing such an excellent lot of people
more than compensated for the stable
incident.

We want to know what the people
in the western part of Cherokee think
about the value of macadamized roads.
They have the advantage of several
miles of good road, have also expe
rienced the difficulties of bad roads,
and are therefore capable of telling,
us what they think. With the purpose
in view of interesting everybody >in
Cherokee in the question of better
roads we invite every citizen who is
so fortunate as to have the use of the
few miles of good road in the county
to give expression to his views
through The Ledger. Come on with
your letters, whether for or against |
good roads.

VICTORY ORGANIZED
Accurately Describes the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Co.,
of Newark, N. J.
It is a company which does not meet competition; it beats it. Beats
it with an instructed and steadfast agency corps by advocating those
principals ofjequity which the company has consistently practiced for
generations, in opposition to all methods involving forfeitures. Beats
it with low rates, high surrender values and large annual dividends,
which bind the company to thrifty methods of management. While
the’genius of an institution is always poorly interpreted by the facts
of its history, the Mutual Benefit has sixty*years behind it, which
will commend it to anyone who wants secure insurance, for its own
sake; what is morally and mathematically his, and is willing that
the other fellow should receive his own; his company^to be economi
cally conducted as a genuinely'mutual organization without any en
tangling alliances with other financial institutions.
The Mutual Benefit has satisfied generation after generation of
policy holders. If you want the best insurance, see
JONES J. DARBY, Agent.
