Legislation in Switzerland.

A great deal has been printed in re-
cent years about the advanced system
of legislation in operation in SWitzer-
land, but many people are "a yet unin-
formed as to the practical workings Of
the system. All legislation Of a gen.
ersl nature is submitted to a direct
vote of the people, after it has passed
the legislative assembly. AS an illus
trstion, q measure was recently
adopted depriVing the Csntons (States)
Of any share In the control of the
army. The bill was submitted to the
people November 1885, and was de-
feated by vote of 100000 to $4,000.
At the same election the Canton of
Zurich adopted law making 1t illegal
to sell food other than by actual
weight.
The following from a report made
by Consul German, Of Zurich, dated
November 5, 1895, will give the reader
an idea as to the character of the laws
passed and also restates the manner In
which they are adopted:
Csntonsl EmploYes.-In the neigh
boring Canton Of Tug, two new laws
have recently been framed, and are
now under discussion before the Can
tonal Legislature, and, if adopted,
will be submitted to the vote of the
citizens for final passage. The first of
these laws refers to the remuneration
Of Csntonal officers and employees, and
has passed first reading. A noticeable
improvement Of the new act is that In
case Of sickness the Cantonsl officers
and employees will continue to draw
their salaries for a period not to ex-
coed four months, even though a sub
gtitute has been employed. If an
employe, however, is prevented from
attending to his duties for Q period
longer than four months, he then shall

A Successful Kansas Institution.

The Farmers Alliance Insurance
Company, of Mcpherson, has just

and has issued 26,2l6 policies, $500 in
property and 1876 in the hail depart
ment. The losses paid aggregate

losses. All losses are promptly and
satisfactorily paid. The reserve fund
required by law is always carefully
maintained. The company is gaining
In popularity as is evidenced by the
fact that during January, 1895, 100
policies were written as compared with
81 In the same month one year ago
and 81 the year previous to that. The
annual report December 81, 1895,
shows 1888 policies in effect, covering
81, 822,765 Of property on which the
assessments (premium) are promptly
paid. The losses of 1895 amounted to
nearly S14, 900, all of which, except one
questionable claim, have been promptly
paid. The cash on hand at the end Of
year was &6,443.55 compared with
%, S54.S8 the previous year. The ex-
pense account is carefully guarded;
officers are paid for just what they do
and nothing more and the insured gets
good safe reliable insurance for Just
what it costs ond no more. The busi-
ness Is done right at home and no
money Is sent out OF the State. This
company operates under the mutual
insurance law, which has been properly
called the poor mans insurance. The
officers in charge are we'll known as
careful and successful business men
and are all farmers. John w. Vowel,
the President, and Fred Jackson, the
Secretary, take as much pride In the
success Of the company as If 1t were
their individual property.

Reform Needed in Chicago.

The blight Of old party rule and po-
liticsl methods is becoming more sp.
parent every day. People are realizing
that something must be done to Inn
prove the administration Of public
affairs. Chicago, even, is beginning
to discover that something must be
done, The Union League Club of that
city is an organization Of influential
citizens, and the speeches made at its
meeting January 20 indicate that the
members Of this organization have
made some discoveries.
Judge G. G. Kohlsast, the President,
said, among other things, that there
were crying evils in this city and that
he hoped to give his influence to leglS.
lstion for civil reform.
Elbridge Keith said: "Tammsny Is
repeating itself here in Chicago. The
big and little bosses are distributing
the patronage as they please, and when
one Of us attempts to demonstrate we
are told to mind our own business. We
ought to plead for better men at Wash
ington, at Springfield and In Chicago.
This club ought to take up the warfare
against the tax dodger, the bride taker
and the corrupter, and bring them all
to justice"
G. D. Boyse, another member, told
Of a State Senator who had asked him
for $4,000 in order to get a bill
through q committee and of another
case In Chicago where he could not get
an ordinance passed through the
Council because he could not bride the
Aldermen.
This Is certainly a humilistlng spec
tscle. 1t is certainly evidence, If evil
dence were necessary, that it is time
something were being done. Yet old
party papers 90 right on telling the
people that the country and the gov
eminent is all right If calamity howlers
will only "mind their own business.
Politicians and public officers are Ger.
tainly mindlng their own business. In
fact, that is all that interests them. The
peoples interests don't concern them.
Isn't it time for o new deal?

he MUST MODIFY IT.

Delegate Catron must know that he can
not possibly secure statehood for New
Mexico without the aid of the territory's
Democratic friends in the senate and the
aid of Democratic voters at home. Then
he must do the right thing and modify
the apportionment feature of his enabling
act or suffer the same fate that befell his
partisan state constitution in 1886 at the
hands of the voters of New Mexico. If
Mr.. Catron is sincere and wise he will not
waste the present admirable opportunity
for success and imperil the business in
terests of the territory by arbitrarily in
sisting on the acceptance of his appor-
tionment.
But We believe Delegate Catron will
make the modification. 1t would be
suicidal for him to refuse to do so, espec-
tally as leading members of his own party
throughout the territory agree and insist
that it shall be done. By no other plan
can there be aught else but chaos at home
on this sub ject-and chaos at home means
curses loud, long and deep for every man
who permits his selfish, partisan spirit to
stand between the people of New Mexico
and the goal of their worthy ambition at
this critical iuncture.

PROBED IT DEEP,

The deaths by diseased meat, presnm-
ably, should be probed to the bottom by
the Albuquerque authorities. Indeed, it
should have been done ten days ago, fol-
lowing the death of the poor Indian. If
the city health officials fail to get at the
bottom facts, then the territorial cattle
sanitary board should act. The live stock
industry is all too important to New
Mexico to have the announcement sent
broadcast through the public press that
''diseased m eat" is retailed to the public.
The injury may be more far reaching
that we can estimate.
