OyermYer Talks Of Democracy.

When w. J. Bryan returned from
Mexico he was rendered a banquet by
the Bryan Travelling Mems Club, at Lin
coin, Neb. The principal. orator was
David Overmyer. His subject was "Na-
tional Democrats" He referred to the
fact that at three times in forty years
segment Of the party had tried to over
ride the known sentiment and principles
of the Democrat party. The first case
was the detection from the standard of
Stephen A. Douglas in 1861, the second
the bolt in the Horace Greeley campaign
of 1872 and the third the organization
known as National Democrats in 1896.
The latter was alleged to be a party eX-
actly in line with the teachings of jeff
erson and Jackson, but this was a false
pretense. Jefferson had declared banks
of issue to be unconstitutional, Jackson
had wiped them out, but this party in
dorsed national banks in the names OF
these two great men of the people.
Their organization was the first to de-
clare sQuarely for the gold standard,
They were either IN sympathy with or
controlled by the money despotism
which has its head in London and Its
tail in New York. He predicted that
Bryan would be renominated in 1910
and triumphantly elected.

Why the Mutual Life DeCamped.

Superintendent McNall gives some in
teresting information about the New
York Mutual Life and its operations in
Kansas. 1t appears from reports on
file in the insurance department that this
company has taken from the State IN
premiums since 1872 $2,325,SO6 and has
only paid $677,54S in losses, showing
a net income Of $1,64S,25S, which is
pretty comfortable thing to have in the
family. This is especially true in view
of the fact that all of the business paid
its own way with the exception Of an
annual fee of 50 for each agent. This
company was not anxious to get into
the State Supreme court and go to trial
on the merits of its effort to stay in
Kansas in violation OF our laws, know
ing that the decision would be unfaVor-
able. Rather than have a case so de-
cided, It withdrew in hopes that some
future Republican Commissioner would
readmit 1t without questioning Its meth
ods Of doing business.
