GOVERNOR ORMAN VETOES
FIRE INSURANCE BILL

Denver, Colo, April 20.-Governor
Orman exercised his veto power for
fhe first time Thursday, vetoing House
bill No. 166 (Ballinger), fixing the la
sbility of fire insurance companies at
.ifhe full face value of the policy in

Ngovernor declares that the measure is
a premium on i~ncendiarlsm and vicious
nclass legislation. Governor Thomas,

action met the approval of the in
tsurance commissioner. Following is
d portion of the governors veto:
in all probability. the main object
<of a law of this character, and the
principal argument advanced in sup

desire to compel insurance companies

I'm order that the true amount of the
loss may be determined. 1t is argued
by reason of the fact that Insurance
companies are often dila Sry, and
many times arbitrary, in making prop

is necessary in order to protect policy

Manila, April 2O.-Following is Ag-
uinaldo's address to the Filipino peo-
pie. made public last evening:
II believe | am not in error in pre-
suming that the unhappy fate to which
my adverse fortune has led me is not a
surprise to those who have been IA
miliar with the progress of the war.
The lessons taught with a full mean
ing and which have recently come to
my knowledge, suggest with irresist-
ible force that n complete termination
of hostilities and lasting peace are not
only desirable, but absolutely essen
tial to the welfare of the Philippine
Islands.
THE Filipinos have never been dis
mayed at their weakness, nor have
they faltered in following the path
pointed out by their fortitude and our
|age.
1.-THE time has come however, In
which they find their advance along
this path to be impeded by an irresist-
ible force, which, while 1t restraints
them, yet enlightens their minds and
"opens to them another course, present
ing them the aus of peace.
This cause has been joyfully en-
braced by the majority of my fellow
countrymen, who have already united
around the glorious sovereign banner
of the United States.
"In this banner they repose their
trust and belief that under its protec-

lay in the final adjustment Of his
claims.
while there is much foundation for
an argument of this character, still l
am convinced that n measure of this
nature should not be allowed to be-
come a law and should have no place
upon our statute books. 3.
eve have the advantage of the ex-
perience gained by other states where
such n law has been enacted and be-
come operative, and the universal tes-
timony is hat it has materially in
creased the rate of insurance and the
ratio of losses has become vastly larg-
err, giving rise to the superstition that
such n law operates in favor of the in
cendiary n to the detriment of the
honest man, thereby compelling the
honest men to pay for the frauds per
petrated by the dishonest man. The
bill is also vulnerable to the objection
that it is class Legislation, in that 1t
applies only to improvements upon
real property and not to personal prop
erty, for it specifically says any i'm
provements upon real property CIV
ing the owner of that class of proper
ty undue advantage over the owner of
personal property, who, without
doubt, would be required to pay the
same rate for protection as the owner
of real property, although not receiv-
ing the same indemnity or remunera-
, ton in case of loss"

STEEL TRUST TO HAVE
STRONG

Detroit, April 2O.-The Evening
News says:
Final arrangements were made yes
terday for the building of a steel and
iron plant at Sault Ste Marie, on the
Canadian side, which will employ TO-
o men and be capitalized at $4,000
600.
The plant will be operated in connec-
ton with the great power canal being
constructed at the Canadian 500 by
+. H.. Clergue and his associates of the
Coo Power corporation. The financ-
cling of the project is in the hands OF
A. II. Hovey of Liverpool, a we'll
known English promoter. who has en-
listed American. English and Cana
dian capital in the desired amount.
When asked how soon it was expected
to have the plant in operation, Mr..
Hovey said:
AN enormous project like this takes
time. However, we are so advanced
that part of the mill will be running
inside of six months n the entire
plant within n year and n half. Then
we shall employ 10000 men at least
1t is our intention to have mills on
both sides of the 500 river, in the
United States and Canada"
The International Steel. Iron and
ripe company VIII be organized to To-
cate immense steel mills on both the
Canadian and the United States sides
of the Soc canal, with a capacity of
100000 tons annually and employing
about 10000 men. The Consolidated
Lake Superior Power Company, of
which Mr.. Clergue is vice president,
it Is understood, will take n large
block of the S5O,OO0,OOO stock of the
new company.
As an outcome of the establishing
of the steel works at the 500, 1t is said
that a blast furnace will be estab-
lished in Detroit with n capacity of
1000 tons of pig iron per day, en-
ploying 1000 men.
1t was minated by those interested
that the new company would be an act
i've competitor of the recently formed
steel combine in the United States.

THE SLEEPER AWAKENED
Being the story of n Cleveland Amateur
Photographer

Being the Story of n Cleveland Amateur
photographer
There is n West Side boy who is quite
daft on the subject of photography,
says the Cleveland Plaindealer. He
isn't satisfied with the mere taking of
pictures-anybody can train n camera
on n scene or a sitter-but he aims
at securing novel effects, something
out of the common run of subjects. At
times this leads him into unpleasant
predlcaments-though there is nobody
like your devoted camera field for
wriggling out of trouble: and some
times it is unpleasant for the other fel-
low.
One evening not long ago lie planned
n surprise for his brother. Incidental
ly he meant to secure his portrait I'M
der circumstances that perhaps have
never been exactly duplicated.
Usually he retireS at Il reasonably
early hour, but this evening he was in
no hurry. He waited until his brother
was in bed and presumably asleep.
and then he stole up to their room with
his camera and a load of fiashlight
powder.
He listened for a m to his
brothers regular breathing, and then
he quietly planted his apparatus and
prepared for action.
When all was in readiness he sud
denly let out n wild war whoop, and
as his startled brother rose in terror
he touched off the flashlight and snap

but. as usual. the scamp escaped.

Awakened and thinks it is one of the
best things in his collection.
