under the tests applied by the compa-
mics. who are practically good risks
and who might be accepted under
some new arrangement without the
slightest possibility OF a percentage OF
loss any greater than that which the
experience Of all companies has taught
them to expect It has seemed both
pathetic aad IN ust that these people
should be denied the security which
insurance offers although it has been
q business necessity. We beiieve that
If the regulations OF a new branch of
the business shall be faithfully ap-
piled lie insurance will experience
an extension and change greater
than it has known since it began its
beneacent work for the helpless be-
reaved.

Watson's resolution calling for an investi-
CATION of the Pinkerton system which has
caused considerable agitation, especially in
farmers' alliance circles, has, at the request
of Representative Oates, chairman of the
subcommittee which reported the resolution
adversely to the judiciary committee of the

by tho committee to-day. Representative
Oates says that he has been going slow in
the matter for the reason that he wishes to
ascertain whether or not congress has
jurisdiction. IL from the nature of the
corporation it should be found that congress
can legislate with respect to fke Pinkerton
system and that it is not a matter
with which the states and municipalities
alone can deal, he says there may be
reason to recommend an investigation. but
that unless congress has power to legislate
and remedy the abuses it may find TO exist.
IL is not its business to make an investiRA-
tion. Representative Oates asked Repre-

man was unable to do so. Representative
