THE EXCURSION.
Twelve Hundred Fort Worth People
Out ON q Jaunt Yesterday
Went TO the Canyon.

The excursion from Fort Worth
yesterday arrived at 1918 p. m,
about 1900 strong. There were
twelve coaches loaded to the guards
with men, women aud children of all
ages and sizes. The train stopped
here about forty minutes and then
proceeded to the Canyon, where the
excursiOnist roAmed over the hills
until late in the afternoon, when with
faces aglow with animation, they
steamed southwark to their city
homes. Several of our town people
accompanied them from here to the
Canyon and they say they never saw
people enjoy themselves more hearth
ly. THOSE of the excursionist who
were heard to express themselves
said they were delighted with their
trip and amazed at Ardmore, for in
stead of village they found bust
ling city with strong probabilities of
becoming q rival of the Panther city
at no distant day.

pared especially for the occasion.

The understanding now is that the bids
for the bond issue of S5o.00J.o00 amount TO
about slO0.00O.OO0. and that many Of the
bids are more favorable to the government
than the Secretary of the Treasury had
reason to believe they would be. a week
OF two ago the reports Indicated a doubt
whether the whole issue would be sub
scribed for, and there were limitations
that the greater part Of the gold needed
to pay for the bonds would be drawn out
Of the treasury, so that so far as the gold
reserve was concerned the purpose Of
the government would be defeated. These
reports do not appear TO have been well
founded. The newspapers giving currency
TO them We're rather anxious apparently
that the bond issue should not be a sue
cess. They permitted their hostility to
the administration to get the better Of
their patriotism. If the bonds had not
been taken the credit Of the government
would have suffered seriously. il is known
that the banks have more money than they
can use Proftably and their refusal to
subscribe for the bonds under the cir
cumstances would have been construed as
lack Of confidence in the ability Of
the government to fuldu its financial OBJ
legations. The fact, however. that bids.
amounting to twice the amount demanded,
have been made. shows that the credit of
the government is as good as ever it was.
The necessity for keeping up the gold
reserve, in order TO maintain the paper
and silver currency on parity with gold,
emphasizes the Importance Of reforming
the currency as quickly as possible. 1t
is apparent that, under the present cur
rency system, the government might find
it impossible to keep up-the gold reserve.
Had the holders of government notes
been so disposed they could have obtained
the issue of bonds now offered and paid
for them with gold drawn from the treas
ury. In fact, the treasury could be easily
relieved Of all its gold and the government
left powerless to maintain its policy of
keeping silver greenbacks and treasury
notes on a parity with gold. The business
interests of the country win be in con-.
stant danger of being violently disturbed
as long as the present currency system is
permitted to continue.
Congress, as soon as it assemblies, should
address itself to this currency question.
1t is a question that should be considered
without partisan bias or the intention Of
gaining a party advantage. All parties
should act in harmony with the admin
istration with the view of giving the coun-
try a currency system that would meet
the wants OF the people. and which, at

The Venable Insuranoe an.

The insurance bill of Senator Venable.
which provides that insurance brokers' un-
der certain conditions may place insurance
on property located within this state in
companies not doing business in this state
under existing laws, is the subject of
lively discussion before the Senate iudic-
iary committee. The bin is a very impor-
tant one, and Senator Venable has asked
property holders in the different cities Of
the state to give him their views of it,
The bill is aimed at the Southeastern
Tariff Association, which does about all
the fire insurance of the state, each mem
Der Of the association having complied
with that provision of the law requiring a
deposit of $4,000 in satisfactory securities
with the secretary of state before engay-
ing in business. There is great deal of
dissatisfaction with the association. the
belief being entertained to very con-
siderable extent that, knowing it has a
monopoly, it fixes the insurance rates too
high, and is very arbitrary in its demands.
The effort that is now being made to
get out of the control of the association is
a very earnest one, and it is certain to
have strong support from all parts of the
state. If it can be satisfactorily shown
that it is oppressive the Nenable bill. or
some similar bill is pretty certain to be
passed. The association VIII have ample
opportunity to explain the charges that
are being brought against it. 1t seems to
have hope of defeating the pending bill
without going into its own record, on the
alleged ground that it is unconstitutional
If the bill should be adjudged unconstitu-
tional it is highly probable that other leg
islatlon would be proposed to accomplish
the object aimed at 1t is asserted, how
ever, that the constitutionaGty of the bill
cannot be successfully questioned.
1t has been suggested many times that
the $4,000 deposit provision of the insur-
ance law be repealed but the suggestion
does not meet with favor from the coun-
try members Of the legislature They
think that provision is a good one. be-
leving that it protects the unwary from
wildcat insurance companies.
There is no doubt that the original law
under which the southeastern Tariff As
sociation does business, together with the
Whitfield act passed two years ago. makes
the association aus strong trust as there
is i'm the country. If it is made clear that
this trust is abusing its privileges and op-
pressing the people, the legislature ought
not 20 hesitate TO take the necessary steps
20 get rid OF e..
