lines they reveal possible changes of far
reaching significance in the prevailing

among the several departments of tha

From time to time we have heard sug-
gesttons offered of new departments to
be added to those existing, and rcpre-
scented in the cabinet councils of the
president. But the only addition made
to the established divisions since the
foundation Of the government has been
that Of secretary of agriculture. The
elaboration Of the statements of the ad-

PROTECTING MINORITY STOCK
HfhIl DERS

The decision of the New jersey court OF
errors and appeals regarding the rights
of minority stockholders, which was pub
welcomed by that class of citizens
which looks forward TO the ultimate
effective regulation OF the prevailing
movement of trust organization. Coming
at this time and from the courts of the
state whose laws afford the principal
shields for such operations, it will be Pc
culiarly welcome, since it indicates.
however inefteetively. that public optn-
: ion and the public interest are not to I've
wholly ignored with reference to such
organizations
1t cannot be claimed that the decision
establishes any new principle in corpora
ton law. 1t does indicate, however, that
a line is hereafter to be drawn, even by
the courts of New Jersey, beyond which
trust organizers and promoters cannot
go in disposing of the property rights or
those stockholders who are not inmedi-
who choose to disagree with the policy
which may be dictated to them by the
owners of the majority of the stock.
The principle laid down in the decis-
ion is in effect that the issuance of stock
in Payment of property taken over by
corporation, whether in the formation Of
trust or otherwise. must bear some
reasonable approximation to the value
of the property SO taken over. and that
the Judgment ofsthe board of directors
in estimating the value of such properly
with reference to the stock intended 10
cover its purchase, is not final on dis
senting stockholders.
Heretofore. so far as the general public
have any knowledge or information, stock
might be and has been issued ad libitum
in payment Of property taken over by
trusts and without any substantial re-
gard to real values. This course has re-
suited in setting a premium on stock
watering, and has operated in many cases
with regard to minority and dissenting
stockholders as in effect confiscatory.
1t may not be possible to stay the prog
ress Of the great movement toward in
dustrial Consolidation, or, it may even not
prove advisable to do SO from the stand
point of true public policy; but it is at
least due to every consideration Of per
sonaI rights that there shall be we'll

forced against the unrestrained issuance

In this case the projectors of the new
organization seem to have eventual,

the usual process. Whenever the ope- a.

who can by any possible means Increase
the original cost of life insurance. This
is an interesting fact to remember in the
present unparalleled era Of combina-
nations, when men and corporations are
uniting in every direction, and upon a
hitherto unequaled scale, to augment the
cost of almost everything, or at least
make it possible for them to do so If
they wish. But the life companies can
not in any conceivable manner band to-
gether to force up the price of insurance

age.
The fixed tables of mortality alone de-
ternine the cost of life Insurance. which
as has been before noted, is practically
the same in all companies at the outset
where there Is no rebating, though abil-
ity and economy OF management may
have much to do with It's ultimate ex-
pense. But the companies cannot COM
bine as corporations may do In about
everything else these days, to increase
rates, because those rates are already
fixed by the irrevocable laws of average
human longevity.

able-bodied men in every state in the
Union who can increase the cost of life
insurance, and they are doing it to them

For the Oriental room or the cosy cor

that seem crude in anything but the
dim, soft shaded light that is desired for
such apartments. There is a golden
sheen to these papers that tones down
beautifully and they make very desir-
able panels.
Art Nouveau is the term applied to the
new designs in wall paper, with their
backgrounds Of chocolate, old rose. green
or brown in subdued colorings, the pat
terms being carried out in tints as sub
dued as the background. One effective
design shows a lily blossom and leaves
in light standings of green on dull green
ground and another is the familiar en-
pire design in white on chocolate
ground.

Arabian lace and applique of the same

curtains of sheer fabrics finished with

match, forming panels. The new designs
in these hangings are lovelier than any
that have heretofore been seen.

luxury, and the characterization is no
less apt when the question Of dress for

concerned, as there is in the choice of
her wardrobe, and this is pre-eminently
a season of personal selection with re-
