Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle
men: We have gathered here this af-
ternoon to honor the memory of our
late President William Mckinley,
whom all true Americans have learned
to love and admire, Notwithstanding
that some of us may not have en-
dorsed, in all respects the policy of
our government during the past few
years, however. time only can demon
strate the wisdom of his administra-
ton and the future historian will be
more competent to pass Judgment upon
his policies than we his coutempor-
aries In my humble opinion Mr.. Nc
Kinley will take a very high rank
among the statesmen of our country,
but it is not of that phase of his char
acter that | wish to speak today my
friends.
When l contemplate this vast audi
ence made up of all sorts and condi-
tions of men and women from all
quarters of the globe, members of
many religious denominations and
political parties and see the clergy
uniting with us in honoring the name
of great and noble American citi-
zen, I feel like thanking God for that
charity and brotherly love, that was
so beautifully exemplifed in the life

Der this morning was the introduction
OF resolution No. Z by Senator Thomas.

VICIOUS INSURANCE BILL.
That is What Senate Bill No. 5 Was Found
To Be.
How a similar Law Drove Insurance
Business from Nevsda-No Insur-
anee In That State Now.

Insurance men who have written
large fire insurance policies covering
the Salt Lake property. heaved a
huge sigh OF relief this week when the
valued policy BILL" introduced into
the Senate was withdrawn by the au-
thor at a time when 1t looked as
though II might pass both branches
OF the Legislature and go to the Gov
ernor for signature, Just as a similar
measure did two years ago. and which,
by the way, the State executive
promptly vetoed. The purport of the
bill was that in the event Of fire the
full face value OF the policy must be
paid irrespective OF the value OF the
property and Notwithstanding the fact
that the property might be worth
much less than the amount insured for.
Concerning Il Manager Z. J. Jolley OF
the board OF fire underwriters said to-
day: 1T was very vicious measure
A similar law was passed in Nevada
with the result that every insurance
company In the State withdrew lts
business therefrom. The results is that

ance today The bill introduced In the
Utah Legislature was even worse and
would have driven all insurance from

factor In the great business that they
