From the first settlement of tho col

1t cannot be classed with diseased cattle
or meats, decayed fruit or other articles
the use of which is a menace to the

various forms as a legitimate article Of

INSURANCE SUPERVISION,
Why 1t Will Eventually Swing AWAY
From the State Capitals to Wash
ingtOn.

AhSe
Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
When the governmental supervision Of
life insurance passes from state control
to that of the nation. as it seems destin-
ed to do eventually, officials and law
makers of the former will alone he re-
sponsible for the change. Life insurance
managers, and the vast body of policy
holders, have generally been either in
different to the situation, or willing to
allow the varying and contradictory sys-
TENS of state control to continue. But
the regular appearance each session of
vicious measures aimed at life insurance
the cost and trouble Of explaining their
Jolly and uselessness, and the greater
cost of meeting their exactions whenever
enacted, have wearied managers and
policy holders until even the most con
sentative of them are about ready for
change.
Congress is a large body. under excep-
tfonal scrutiny by the public, and made
UP of presumably able men That meas
ures wantonly harmful to such a great
and important number of people as lie
insurance policy holders could be push
ed through both houses at washington,
seems almost impossible. 1t certainly
could not be attempted with 1.-THE OF
the frequency with which 1t is eSSayed
In every one of nearly half a hundred
state legislatures. AS to the execution Of
the laws for insurance supervision when
once enacted, the chances of caprice
ugliness or ignorance cutting the figure
it now does at so many state capitals
would be greatly reduced. Bureau officials
at Washington are mainly men of ability
themselves under the restraint Of the
particular department to which they be-
long. At the very worst there would be
only one bureau to run things in, place
of nearly fifty, as at present under state
misrule,
Consequently, when the fine, fat offices
now existing at state capitals in connec-
ton with insurance are abolished, and
the fees secured from the companies no
longer find their way into the treasures
it will only be another case of not hav-
ing known when to let well enough alone

It will be well enough for the govern

mendable in Chicago to desire the gen

operate 1t. But the nerve of Chicago does
not stop there With the gift goes the
condition that the Illinois river and all

going vessels of light draft, This would be
a good thing for the little towns along
the route. but would not affect the com

asked her which of all her roles she liked

She then chartered on to say that she
was doing some painting and some

and she sent out a miscellaneous fash of

good deal about America in those mem

She answered question upon question
about Miss Maude Adams with a sweet

her success in the role of Aiglon, ard
