OBORUK LOOM IS, of Wood oounty, A kkck.stlv issued postal order' for Uig transmission! ot money will supply a genuiuo public need. The limit is ruisu from $50 to $100, and a sum less than $5 costs only thrco cents. Persons will not bo obliged to 1111 out n blank, but will rcceivu an order payable to the bearer nt any monoy order oflico desired. The feature is especially dcslrabio for persona uneducated or unacquainted with public business whd do not know liow to fill out the blunksproperly and consume a great deal of the postmasters time in findiug out. The new notes will be handsomely engraved and resemble those of the banks. The Journal of Commerce, of New York, in sorry to learn Unit "Jarmers urc not unxiouH to sell their wheat at present." It professes not to bo in tlio leust sorry that they are able to hold on, but thinks they will orr in judgment if they do. It argues that tho year's crop gives a surplus of at least 310.000,000 bushels above the demand for lioino consumption, or 124,000,000 bushels more than we have ever yet exported in any one year. At tho same time most of the countries which usually take surplus have a fair average crop of their own litis year, amlsomo of them have more than au average crop of other food products. Hence the conclusion that unless furmers let their wheat go fU low prices it will not be taken f, at all, ami there will be an enormous sur- r: plus of ?10,000,000 bushels or more?an a amount approaching our entire home con- J sumption last year?to carry over to an- J; o'.ber year. o 1 It seems that Eustace Gibson, Demo- ? cratic candidate for Confess in the Fourth J district,and ex-Speaker of the West Virginia $ House of delegates, refers in his speeches c to his competitor, Judge Looinis, as "the ei gentleman from Massachusetts." Judge 01 Loo mis came to Virginia in 1845, now 37 0 years ago, which is more than a generation m ago, and more also than the average b duration of human life, yet it appears that J be is not yet a citiaen of West Virginia of u sufficient standing as to time to run for ft Congress. Eustace Gibson came to West ^ Virginia from Culpeper, Virginia, since jjj the war,after fighting against West Virginia v under the Confederate flag for four years, li and he regards himself as in a position, by P virtue of thrne antweilentH. to slur a Union . - man who haa been in "Virginia and West ai Virginia lor 37 year*. The question arisep, n could Metbusaleb have acquired a citizen- '! ship in Went Virginia, coming here from ^ the spot of bis nativity, .near the Gar* jj den of Eden, when he was say p one year old ? The theory ia that a man " from Ireland or Germany can come to this country and in five years become a full ai blown citizen of the United States, and our ft Suite Constitution says that the citizens of ?' this State shall be the "citizens of the United States residing therein." But this language g, of the Constitution in the estimation of a lhurbon like Gibson lias no weight when it comes to running for an office. It only applies to those who aro willing to como ^ into this State and join the Bourbon party, n; A New England man, no odds bow long in th the State, has no right that a Bourbon feels Tc called on to respect if he is a Republican. Is it any wonder that Northern people prefer to go West to some State not cursed by is.' Bourboniam. The fact of the matter is, ^ that if tlio people of the Fourth district 3 known what is good for themselves, as re- Gr spects their selfish interests only, they will never send a man to Congress imbued cc with the narrow Bpiric that prompts the 2 Democratic candidate to vent these slurs ]?; upon his competitor. 4'o*Oi>orntlve I.ir? Inmirnnce. The State of Massachusetts pays a great deal of attention to social and vital statist* ica, and the Insurance Commissioner of that State has discursed in his recent report what is known ub "co-operative life Cei insurance." This sort of insurance is vr. known as a cheap and popular method of Cle assessment on the membership of an asso- . ciatioa to pay a certain sum of money to the family of a deceased member. It has (^ its origin in a felt want among men of litn- ? ited means to provide for their families be- B yond their daily savings. It includes for the most part those who feel that they can- Ccl not airord to take out a policy in one of the old companies. The old companies not Cle only require payment in advance but j? , also requiro a certain bonus known as arc- c , serve fuud. The co-operative methyl is on a ?r diirea'nt plan altogether. There is no ad- Jnl vance payment and no reservo fund. Mm "When a death occurs au assessment is made US on the membership to pay it, and this ia Jc tho sliort and simple method in which they do business. Whether it is a safo method -xj ?whether it will endure, are yet questions V unsolved. It is spoken of as a good and on i cheap insurance as long as it lasts. If a jj/, man quits insuring, or if tho association ~rt breaks up, the members can console themselves with the rellection that for a com* s paratively small amount of money they \ have been insured for'a certain time. "7] They do not forfeit any bonus paid to a rcserve fund. They forfeit simply what they If paid when assessments were made. K It seems by tho report of the Massachusetts commissioner that there are sovoniv. two cooperative or beneficiary association* in this country that are considered important enough to be referred to by him. These seventy-two associations had risks out 011 the tirst of January last on 403,758 persons, and they paid out during tho year 1881 Cli? losses .amounting to $0,838,215. On the other hand, twenty-seven life companies, whose reports are given by him, had risks RlJj at the date named on 598,802 persons, and has paid losses during tho samo year K. (1881) amounting to $21.810,GOO. _Jr It is to the growth of these co-operative insurance associations that tho commissioner particularly refers. He seems to re- j gard it as evidence that tho provident peo- i pie of this country of small means aro seeking a less expensive way than tho old method to provide for their families in the event of death, and tho fact that in a comparatively short period, as compared with h the old method, they have come to in- f cluilo two-thirds as many insured persons as tho old companies, is evidence that the rt co-operative plan has claims upou. public attention. _. a? In regard to the merits of tho co-operativo plan, the Massachusetts Commissioner *% Iocs not express an opinion. He seems to be atisfled with furnishing the facts.. He irobfttly considers the plan as in itscjperinentiil stagetas yet. That it has .some lefectais well known, but whether the lefects are fatal to-^ perpetuity is not yet atisfactorily ascertained. The New York Timti refers to this branch of the subjet as ollows:. ... ; . ^l.: "So far as tlio system is applied as an luxilliary to social or business orpuilzaionslherecan bono question raised eonicrnirg ita permanency. The membcrHof he Stock hxchauyo in this city carry on a o-op<n?tlve life insurance business. It noyle unfair that tlio assessments and layinents should be tlio saine whether the nembera are old or young, but the stock jruuera nru not iikt'iy to uiuku in is u reason for doing away with a system which is on lio wliolo a benefit anil in no individual asonsevere financial strain. In thi'siune nnnner various societies o( Udd-fellowa md Masons have their relief associations, n which life insurance by mean* of assessni'ntat each death is made a predoiniinnt feature. Here, tco, absoluto jusinrss principles aro not likely to utcrfero with success, and there in no mmcdiato probability of a falling off in mMubersliin. Tho ail vantago of liaving tome other bond of union besides a strictly nercnntilo ono has been recognized by iios? who have founded a number of these societies, anil benco some of the most sueicssful in tho matter of membership?such is (lie Knights of Honor and the United Workmen, both of which have a larger nemberuhip than any single life insurauce ompany?are secret orders. Tho majority >1 men have a curious fondness for the loiiuiionplace mystery of signs ami pass* vortln,und this disposition has been clever* y used us a means of strengthening the aulty features iu tho co-operative system >f insurance. Hut while'recognizing its defects, it must jeadmitted that the co-opera*ive system ins merits not shared by tho regular nethod. The regular companies paid out nst year vear in losses $1'1,819,GOO, at an ixpenso for collections, management, and Kiviiivm ui x iiiiif in iu cuy, uking it for granted that tho losses were lot under the average, and that the end nd nini of the companies is to pay losses, or each two dollars so paid out there whs uore than one dollar paid ou the expense ccount. The expense, so far as recorded, n Recount of the eo-oporativo societies, how that they were only 5.27 percent of heir loss payment, against 53.43 per cent n the part of tho regular companies, 'he totul expenso of tho co-operative otapaniea is given ns $307,825,but if it had cen on the same percentage of the regular ompauies it would have been $3,119,338. tated in another way, the holders of axsoiation certificates averaging about $1,200 ach paid for expenses about 75 cents aeli, while holders of policies averaging bout $3,500 each paid on the ground of xpenses nearly $20 each. Still another dvantace that the co-operative associations ave is in the matter of lapsed policies. A j erv large proportion of those who insure leir lives in the regular companies forfeit je advantage they hope to obtain for their imilies by the non payment of premiums. lb.these are based on the intention of searing a reserve fund, the holder of a lapsil policy forfeits a considerable sum beond what it would cost to insure his fe duriug the term In whioh his olicy was in force. On tho other hand, le holder of an association certificate, if c falls from the list by nou-payineutof an Rscssincnt, loses nothing, since he has aid no more than was necessary to iasure ia life during the time in which his ner Acute remained binding. Now, in spito [ these.manifest defects in the system of fe insurance pursued by the regular comanice, their business" lias prospered nnd as constantly increased, and it is not hnossible that in the fuco of even greater listaclestbe method of co-operative insurocemay firmly establish itself, since it ofxa special inducement to those possessed ; small means. Now that ollicial returns -e obtainable, its progress, either upard or downward, will be watched with eat interest. The Greenbnckers have a candidate for ongress in this district', in the person of .
