THE CRIME OF INSURANCE
To Be Celebrated In Immortal

| June 1, 1899.
| To our fellOw-criminals in the insur.
ance business:
1t is our intention about the first OF
August, 1899, to quit the insurance
business (having been shown the error
of our ways by the Texas legislature

The object of this journal will be
principally to show up the insurance
business in its true light, and give a
full expose of the crime of under
writing. Incidentally, we propose to
publish handsome hslttone photos en-
graved by our special artists, Dargan
and Spears, of the more prominent
lights in the Texas field, together with
short sketch of their careers. Our
song writer's, Pescay and Whitthorne,

worth the subscription price. We
further propose to explain whence the
name of our paper. The above meu-

features of our sheet.

SOLICITORS FOR BANKS.
To the Editor of the Herald;

To the Editor OF the Herald;
Your excellent treatment of money as a
commodity in the editorial What rural dis
tricts need would suggest another method
of bringing the banks in close contact with
the country merchant and farmer, viz
Why do mot these institutions send GU,
travelling statesmen Tin this instance more
properly solicitors do their brethren in
business who deal in more material articles
and offer their wares in the form of loans.
Such action would. 1 think, tend to lower
the rate of interest by producing direct COM
petition, but on the other hand money now
lying idle would find OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ing the volume of trade of the respective
banks So it is evident that both parties in
the transaction would be benefited.
Such an innovation would Of course, be re-
ceived with derision by the bankers--but the
scheme seems plausible and profitable. and
respectfully submit it an appendix to your
far seeing argument on the banking system
JULIUS A. KRAKAUER.
Some days ago in this place the
opinion was expressed that the farmers
and small merchants of the south were
In need of better banking facilities,
not of more currency or different cur
rency from that.now in use in the Unit
ed States. The situation was compared
with that in Russia, where there is an
annual famine in wheat in the north,
while exports of the staple are enor-
nous from southern ports. 1t Is poor
facilities for distribution that make
such an ureconomic condition possible.
So in this country, in the cities mo-
ney ia so plentiful that loans can be OBJ
tanned at the borrowers figure Il the
security is good, and much money is
lying idle for want of opportunity for
safe Investment, while in the rural dis
tricts the crop Of the small farmer is
mortgsged heavily before it is harvest
ed, and since he is compelled to pay
outrageous rates of interest, often
amounting to twenty or thirty per cent,
to money sharks, he has no chance to
get ahead and pay his debts. He Is
owned body and soul by man whose
business it is to grind men down just
as far as they will stand it, and then
keep them there for the purpose of
bleeding them. One man made such a
statement before the industrial COM
mission few days ago: 1--WE carry
them (the farmers) by means of small
loans at high interest as long as we can,
and then we take over the crops and
buy in the farm for little or nothing"
AS stated in the former article, one
of the main reasons why the small far
mer cannot get loans at present is that
his credit rating is unknown outside
of a very small district, and no regular
banker at a distance can afford to loan
him money unless the basis for security
is known. Hence the business of
money lending in small communities is !
concentrated in the hands of few men |
with a small surplus or with fair cred
it at bank, who carry on little
banking business on their own account,

A few days ago q wise judge at San
Jose, California, made q ruling which
would appear to to be based on the
ssrictest common sense. He declined
to make an order to shut out news
paper reporters from the court room
during the trial of a divorce case, hold
ing that it was better for the reporters
to ge. the facts correctly for them
selves than to make up report from
Information obtained at second hand.
1t would be q good thing if this rule
were generally adopted in dealing with
reporters, not only by the courts but
by private individuals as we'll. OF
course there many things of purely
personal interest that are not within
the legitimate field OF a newspaper to
pry into, but on the other hand there
are matters of interest to the public
that the newspapers will get hold of in
one way or another, in spite OF the I'M
reasonable attempt of some people to
keep the newspapers from getting
news. 1t will be found that frsnkness
and friendliness in treating with the
newspapers is the best line to pursue,
and condolences will seldom be abused.

with nothing to lose, all to gain. no

1t is in fact another form of the pawn
brokers' business. That is its true
character. The farmer pawns his
crop in the ground. Just as if he had
pawned bis watch, he gets money on
very low valuation of the pledge, and
then pays perhaps two percent a
month. If he can pay up, well and
good: if he cannot, the pawnbroker
confiscates the property and sells it for
his own use.
pendent is pregnant one. 1t lis exact
ly in line with our argument, and is
entirely logical. The manufacturer
has something to sell. He sends out
men to find his market ard place his
goods. The banker has something to
sell-the use OF money. He has at pre-
sent surplus stock. He ia willing to
get rid of it at reduced rates-low In
terest. Why should he not send out
agents, to find the men desiring the
wares of the banker, ascertain their
basis of credit just as do the CONNER
cial travellers in other lines-and sell
the customers the use of money, taking
security for ultimate payment? 1t
would be in fact extending the prin
ciple of branch banks logically, to
reach every class of borrower.
