ANTI STATEHOOD ARGUMENTS
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1891-05-26

An interesting insurance case has just been
decided at Kansas City, Mo-, by Judge Cald-
well. John B. Berry took out $4,000 policy
in an indemnity company and some later
committed suicide by hanging, evidence of
MS death being furnished and application
Tor the payment of the insurance being
made. The company declined to pay, and
the case went into court, where the argu-
ment OF the insurance people was that the
policy had become null and void by virtue
OF Its own declaration that 1t would become
OF no account in the event of the suicide of
the man insured. This argument was met
with the assertion that the policy should not
nave been made In this manner, and that
the clause referred to was itself void, because
law OF the State of Missouri provides that
in all suits upon policies Of insurance on
lie hereafter issued by any company doino
Dusln1ss Al MAS olaJe, 1t shall be no defence
that the assured committed suicide, unless
1t shall be shown that the assured contem-
plated suicide at the time he made his appli.
cation for the policy, and any stipulation in
the policy to the contrary shall be void
The defendants could not prove that ths
out the policy. and so. judgment was for the
plaintff for the full amount claimed.

Delaware is not to have constitutions,
convention this year. 17,137 votes were cast
in its favor, and only 119 against, but 1t hap
pened that the number of persons voting was
not equal to the majority of votes cast at the
previous State election, as the law required
1t should be in order to call the convention.
So the stay-at-home vote, unintentionally
accomplished the defeat of measure of
which 1t was in favor.

Harper's Weekly admits that the Republi-
can party of New York is much more likely
to give the state good government than the
Democratic. Speaking of the impending
election 1t says:
The election for which the marshalling of FORCES
has begun is state election, and If state issues
were 70 determine it the result would be hardly
douOtfui. IL IS not questionable that the meas
ures which are desired by the most intelligent
sentiment OF the state are more likely to be adopt
ed under Republican than Democratic ascend
ency. Experience shows that reforms in pOliti-
cal methods, wise temperance legislation, and the
whole range OF n0n-political interests will be
more probably advanced under Republican than
Democratic auspices.
Harper's Weekly is Mugwump sheet, and
like all that class, is not inclined to look
upon the Republican party with favoring
eyes. Its verdict in this case is one that its
judgment cOmpels rather against its inclina-
ton.

Considering the prowess of the Maine reg

her soldiers monument. but she il to he no
loser by the delay. The bronze statue of
victory fashioned in Italy by Sculptor Sim
mons, has at last arrived, and its six-ton
weight will soon be hoisted to the top Of the
massive granite pedestal begun in 1889. The
woman robed as Roman nation. laprel
crowned and bearing sword and shield. Two
ADMIRAL bas-reliefs representing the army
ana navy will occupy opposite faces of the
PEDESTAL, and third face will bear the sim
Pc inscription; "Portland-To her sons who

us arrival there was settled belief that the
victory" was at the bottom of the sea.

Vermont finds its quota of the direct tax
money offset and more too by a claim held
against 1t by the general government. The
Indebtedness on which this claim is based
was Incurred on account of arms for its
militia at the time of the Fenian raid at st.
Adams. This indebtedness has never been
made good to the treasury department. 1t is
believed the state government will
set up in defence that Vermont Il
no more under obligation than any
other state to protect the frontier
of the United States and avert the
danger of international difficulty. The point
whether the government should or should
not advance the necessary arms and equip
ments in any case similar to that of the
Fenian raid at ST. Adams is an interesting
matter for legal decision.

Where a Reporter Gets the Worst or It.
1 sometimes think that the newspaper
reporter has a little more to-contend
with than almost amy other man in busi-
ness. Take the commercial drummer.
for instance. He goes into town to sell
goods. If he finds his man out Of sorts
all he has to do il to move On to some
other town and try another, or he can
wait for his customer to get in the prop
er mood. If the deal between two specu-
lators is Of any moment the man who is
engineering the deal can maneuver III
according to circumstances. He may
wait until he gets his man down to a
dinner where the wine is flowing freely.
But the newspaper reporter must tackle
his man wherever he can find him. The
man may have had some terrible mis-
fortune, trouble, or death in his fam
lily, or he may have just had an alfred
poor dinner. But that ID none Of there
porter's business He goes at the man
with questions. He must tackle him
where he finds him. III the man has had
q smooth day Of it, ali right and well
But IL be hasn't the reporter must get at
him in some way. In doing so he runs
the risk Of making an enemy for life and
losing his reputation as an interviewer.
The commercial man has the time to
work his customer to the proper pitch
The reporter must get his man instanter
no matter what obstacles are in the way.
