NOT THE FAULT or TIE LAW.

There may be something lame
about our Iowa insurar ce laws; we
don't know until we hear the matter
threshed out by men of Insurance OK
Iperience. 1t is reported that Governor
Cunrmins will make some recommend
atoms to the legislature II his message
and Cunmnins was always considered
pretty good authority on laws before
he became governor We have always
respected his Judgment on insurance
matters as we'll since the Cedar Rapids
Republican confessed that Cummins
held himself too honorable to lend his
name to gold bond insurance even
when tempted as private citizen. Fut
whether the laws need nending or rot
|is is evident that Merriarl's' insurance
hold-up was not due to any fault of
the law.
Section 1853 of the insurance laws
of Iowa providing for insurance evan
nations reads:
The necessary expenses of any ex-
animation of any insurance company
made or ordered to be made by the
auditor of state under this chapter
shall be certified to by Tim and psid
on his requisition by the company so
examined; and in case of failure of the
company to make such payment, the
auditor shall suspend such company
from doing business In this state until
such expenses are paid. If such eX-
|nenses are not paid by the company,
they shall be audited by he executive
council and paid out OF TIL state treas
ury. But in no case shall any foreign
insurance company be examined eX-
cept by order of the executive coun-
ell"
Thus it can be seen that thev insur-
anca companies that submitted to eS-
tortion were rather easy to say the
least. The Providentiai OF Washington
Is said to be the only company that es-
capped and its managers merely asked
Beehler for his credentials, when Beeh-
Ter promptly sneaked. IL all of the
companies had asked for the order OF
the executive council" Merriam and
Beshler fouid have seen from $4,000 to
$4,000 less profits. In this case the
law was ali right, while the gentlemen
of the road who happened to be hold
ing state office were pretty much
right" too.
