sTATE OFFICER STANDS PAr.

People who read the daily prints have
heard much with reference TO Insurance
Commissioner Host and two or three
large foreign companies that do business
in this state. The CENSOR pretends to
know little of the contentious between
the state insurance department and
these foreign corporations, but is in
clined to the belief, from the anxious tone
of the corporation presg that the COM
missioner has opened up a mess of crook
edness. Mr.. Hosa is reputed to be one
of the leading insurance authorities of
the country and we are of the opinion
that ne is working in the interests of
policy-holders and the state. If the
present tempest is not for political pur-
poses then the press that is always open
TO an engagement has missed its cue.
On the subject of one of these matters
a country paper upstate, that has in
vestigated the subject comments as
follows:
1t seems that the Prudential cannot
stand a search light, and as a. result
aims by its latest step to raise a doubt
| if possible in the minds of the people of
| Wisconsin as to the ability of the in.
surance commissioner The people of
the Badger state are not so easily de-
ceived. They have had their share Of
burdens thrust upon them in the past
as a result Of the trusts and monopolies
and realize that the latest move of the
| Prudential is for the sole purpose Of
killing Mr. Host, so to speak, with the
insurance public. His record for the
! past year and half is one that is open
to inspection. His conscience is clear
for be has aimed to do his duty and the
people Of this commonwealth are profit
| ing as a result of his untiring work.
MIR. Host has worked to place the in
sura1ce department on a higher scale
and scheming insurance companies of
which there are many, desire him ont
OF the way, and take this means of &C.
complishing their purpose. A repre-
sentative of this paper made a careful
investigation. Is it little wonder that
the Prudential wants to discredit Mr..
Host in the eyes of the peopleG Com
missioner Host is the best insurance
commissioner Wisconsin ever had, and
the people should uphold him; thereby
encouraging him in his fight against
great corporations like the Prudential
and Equitable life insurance companies
which do not live up to the laws Of the
state of Wisconsin.

Restriction of suffrage implies in

the right. All professed reasons against
woman suffrage are merely allegations
Of inferiority whatever the pretense may
be. do not believe all women hope
lessly inferior to all men. I believe in
woman suffrage. The right of az in

vote should not depend upon the lack of
intelligence and self respect Of the
woman who is contented with the legal

which brings in its train long series
of handicaps Taken men tally, morally
