band held a policy in this company
fairly, and that the refusal to
pay said policy to her is
the sole basis of his refusal to
grant a liscense to the company,
to do business in the state of Kansas.
"In this connection it is proper
that the court should state the con-
dition of said claim, as it was well
known to to the insurance commiss-
Toner at the time of said refusal. An
action to recover upon said policy
has been pending in the courts of
the United States in the district of
Kansas for more than eighteen years.
The action has been tried five time.
in said court, and the trials presided
over by five different judges, begin
ming with the fair minded, learned
and able jurist who has presided
over the courts in said district for
nearly quarter of century, and
the next in order of trials presided
over by the eminent jurist, Associ-
ciate Justice Brewer, at that time
United States circuit jndge for the
eighth judicial circuit, and the next
time in the order of trials, presided
over by Judge of large experience
and eminent learning, Justice Shi-
ras of Iowa, followed next in order
by the late lamented Judge Thomas,
of North Dakota and lastly by the
districtju delivering this opinion,
and the only success in determining
the issue that has been properly
raised in the courts of the United
States between the insurance COM
pany and Mrs. Hillmon has been
four mistrials and a verdict and |
Judgment at one trial, which was re-

Debuked by Judge Williams.

IL State Insurance Commissioner
Webb McNall, who has been playing
horse with, the Mutual Life Insurance
Co., and refused to grant said com
pany license to do business in
Kansas because said company was
contesting in the courts a policy in
favor of Sallie +. Hillman, on the
grounds that the man insured under
the policy was still living, was en-
joined by the insurance company
for interfering with its business; the
case came up Monday before United
States District Judge Williams, when
the injunction of the company was
fully sustained, and the following
cutting rebuke was administered to
to Mr.. McNall:
"That some such legislation was
imperatively needed the action of
the state superintendent of insurance
in the case at bar would clearly
show The action of the superin-
tendendent in this case refusing to
grant license to transact business
in the state to a company that he
himself admits to be solvent and
has complied with the laws of the
state, for the reason contained in
his letter to the agent of the insur-
ance company, to state it very mild
ly, is arbitrary and is an assumption
of authority by ministerial officer
that Is startling. The reason for the
refusal. as announced in his letter
is because they have not treated

themselves ana their followers on
this point, In the mean time the

fact almost everything he has to
sell is sold at big advance over

Some of the leading populists of

Some of the leading populists of
Kansas, are talking privately of hav-
ing John W. Breidenthal, their late
state chairman, tried for treason to
populism on the g'ound of his re-
peated declarations that Kansas far
mers are prosperous. The corner
stone of populism is the proposition
that Kansas farmers are white slaves,
that they are not prosperous and can
never become so under the single
gold standard. To have Mr.. Breid-
enthal continually declaring, there
fore that these farmers are paying
off their mortgages and have money
to burn, is either an evidence that
he has sold out to Hanna or that he
no longer believes in the fundamen-
tai principles of populism, either of
which ofenses should certainly be
severely dealt with.-Iola Register.

Now that everything is looking
up, the speculation theory is getting
another hold on our people; this is
all right if not carried to extremes.
The Kansas people are just recover

wild speculation in town lots and
futures of different kinds and will
certainly be more.careful of their in
vestmentS iu the future.
