DEMOCRATS SHOW
LITTLE ENTHUSIASM

The Democratic state convention in
Boston today will not see a large at
tendance of delegates from Worcester.
Very little interest is taken in the
meeting, and in fact in the campaign
that is to follow. Chairman James F.
Ryan of the City Committee, Emil
Zaeder and Louis A. Belisle are the
only Worcester Democrats who took
the trouble to go down to Boston yes
terday afternoon to indulge in the an
convention deliberations last night.
The City Committee has not yet seen
a dollar of campaign money and until
some of the long green is forthcoming
little work will be done.
All the work that will be done in the
state campaign will be done in Ward
five in the hope of defeating John G.
Hagberg with Thomas E. Dowd. An at
tempt will be made to stir up the Dem
ocrats of the ward for registration and
preliminary work on these lines was
begun yesterday at Democratic head
quarters by John Ryan who did so
much hustling last year.

Thinks the Outlook Promising.

o.. ID Ashley, chairman of the board of
directors of the Wabash, in the annual
report discusses the railroad situation, the
effect of the low railroad rates in the up
building of territory along railway lines
and fostering growth of population and In
industries. He says in part: AN espe-
cially encouraging feature is growth of
local traffic and increase of passenger
travel. These items of Improvement are
substantial indications of permanent
growth in a department of traffic not af-
fected by the competition to which through
business is subjected. This interesting de-
velopment, stimulated by increasing density
OF population and establishment of local
manufacturing industries, will, in the long
run, prove to be a solid basis of enduring
prosperity.
Under this natural process of internal
expansion. railway lines which at the time
of construction appeared superluous will
become self-suppOrting, and in the ratio of
the growth in local resources, the rate
question, which has for so many years been
the principal factor of disturbance i'm rail-
way traffic, will be practically eliminated.
"A study of railway conditions i'm the
New England States, and especially i'm
Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island, will illustrate the soundness of this
proposition. Whenever, for
density of population in the three great
central Western States of Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois equals per square mile of area
that of the three New England States
named, all of the railway lines now in ex-
istence, or which are likely to be added i'm
the territory east of the Mississippi river.
will be self-sustaining without struggling
for through traffic"

RECENT LEGAL OPINIONS.
Insurance Law

~ 49,
The Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fifth
circuit has recently passed upon a very
unusual insurance question. A. had taken
out a policy of insurance upon his life,
and had made his wife his beneficiary.
Later on they assigned a half interest in
the policy to their two sons. \. was tried
and convicted of murder of his wife and
was duly executed. Between his convic-
ton and execution he assigned his inter
est i'm the policy to his two sons, who now
claimed to be the sole owners of the pol
icy. The court held that an action cannot
be maintained even though the policy con-
tanned no provision for forfeiture in the
event of execution for crime. If the pol
lev. i'm express terms, permitted such a
recovery. ii would in effect be insuring
against the risk of a miscarriage of JUS
tice and void as against public policy.
