DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE.
c. G. Heifner. Deputy Insurance
Commissioners.

The Fusion Legislature Of 1897 placed the
insurance department of the state on a
much moro effective footing than any of
the preceding Legislative bodies. In all
former bodies since the state was organ
lied there were some earnest members
who made honest efforts to enact insur-
ance legislation that would afford protec-
ton to the policy holder as well as to the
Jority. however true to its venal instincts.
was easily persuaded by the insurance
companies to successfully oppose all such
efforts.
fulhllment of its ante-election pledges at
once proceeded to engraft upon the stat
utes OF the state such legislation pertain
ing 10 insurance matters as would afford
some guarantee of justice to the assured.
The only objection to this measure came
from the few Republicans who by a mis-
take on the part OF the people were per-
mitted to cucumber the new body. Their
efforts. however. were OF no avail. and
the peoples reform Representatives pro-
ceeded 10 enact a splendid insurance law,
embodying among other things the follow
ing,
after effected in this state must be done
by residents hereof who have secured
license to solicit insurance from the in
surance department.
Hitherto the insurance companies ef-
fected large lines of insurance In this
state through their home offices. thereby
depriving the local agents who live in our
midst, pay taxes here and are among our
best citizens. from earning the commits
sion on such business that justly belonged
to them. The officers of the insurance
companies probably pocketed these COM
missions themselves. The new law also
provides that:
whenever any policy OF insurance shall
be hereafter written or renewed insuring
real property. or any building or struct-
ure erected thereon or connected there

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
The Hon. John Il. Rogers, Governor
Of the State OF Washington

Gov. Rogers is al once a most striking
character. He is Clean-Cut. tall, manly
type Of the New England gentleman
courteous. gallant. chvalrous. cultured of
a somewhat nervous temperament. and as
keen as a razor. But few men have de-
veloped his high. clear-cut principles of
political reform or as completely devoted
themselves TO them.
Gov. Rogers Is prompt. fearless and out
spoken, and pushes himself into quick ac-
tion on the line of his convictions of the
right. never counting the cost to his own
personal popularity. He seated himself
in the chief executive chair at the begin
ming of his term with three powerful po-
litical factions behind him. competing one
against the other often to the pitch of
bitterness. for state patronage. As is al
ways the case, the offices would not 20

OF the disappointed hosts and their i'm

Political appointments are always a

make willing sacrifices to placate, and
the present Governor has not escaped that
fate.

as strong man. When the Legislature

ECONOMY, HARD WORK AND
STRICT HONESTY.

The Fusion Administration marched In
to the state offices at Olympia in January,
1897, under the banner OF the Peoples
Party. and faced a public debt Of S. 800
1880. This was the legacy left to them
by corrupt Republican government
In less than eighteen months they pull
ed that huge pile Of Indebtedness down 10
the sum OF H.722. 1888. having in that short
period paid of the states obligations to
the extent Of much over half a million dol
lars, and saving in interest thereon the
sum Of $44, 73l.71 besides.
The Republicans closed the year Of 1894
with debt Of 81, 391, 49o6s On January 49,
1887. when they were driven out Of office
by virtue Of the elections In the previous
November. they had increased it to the
figures first given. Since that date the
Fusion Government has decreased the
debt at the rate of $1,000 a day. If the ra-
Ito is kept up the present State Govern
ment will reduce the debt by 81. 49, 900 be-
fore It goes out OF Office. bringing 1t down
to $500 in 1901 There is but little doubt
among those who have the matter in hand
but that 1t will be wiped out entirely by
that time.
Honest and Dishonest Government.
A review Of the good work done in the
several departments of the present adj
ministration and a contrast Of these
achievements with the plunderings of Re-
publican ring politics. which for eight
years preceded It. give US two very STIR
ring pictures one OF honest. able govern
ment, and the other Of gross mismanage-
ment and downright rascality.
We shall see how the state land COM
mission under the old. corrupt regime fritz
tered away the public domain for a mere
plttance. enabling unprincipled political
schemers to appropriate vast sums of
money to their own use that rghtfully
belonged to the people; we shall see how
the revenues were extravagantly and
crminally squandered. state institutions
neglected. robbed and mismanaged, and
how the credit Of the state was ruined I'M
til its warrants fell below par and were
q drug on the market.
And not only in state affairs did this
shameful extravaganza prevail, but the
same spirit of public plumber pervaded
nearly every county and municipal gov
eminent. Taxpayers were robbed, con-
tractors were bled, great corporations
were invited to acts of bribery, and the
ringsters fattened and reveled in their de-
bauchery.
Every county was controlled by one or
more corrupt Republican combine. There
was scarcely a public officer, and not O
Judge on the Superior nor Supreme
