Good Work of the Insurance Depart-ment.

The Raleigh Post last week, in re-ferring to the good work of the In-surance Department under the ableand discreet management of Hon.James R. Young, said:

Hon. James K. Young, insurancecommissioner, paid into the StateTreasury yesterday $9,300.17, thatamount being the collections for thedepartment during May. This is again of $2,741.17 over the collectionsfor May, 1903. As an indication ofthe steady increase in the receipts ofthe department it is of interest tonote that the receipts for the newyear since April 1st are over $5,000more than for the same period lastyear. Commissioner Young saysthere is every indication now thatthe grand total of receipts for theyear will be $200,000 as comparedwith $174,000 for last year.
