Claims Acts of the New York
Life Were Unlawful and
Purposes Corrupt
NOT ONLY GUILTY CONTRIBUTOR
Jusctice Parker, Recent Democrat
Candidate for President, Says Off
GERS of Other Great Life Insurance
Companies Contributed From Policy
Holders Fund for Campaign Pur
poses.

Esopus, N. Y. Sept. 1S.-Former
Chief Justice Alton B. Parker, last
year the democratic candidate for
president of the United States, has re-
ferred to the charges made by him in
the presidential campaign last fall
that corporation funds were being used
in aid of the republican campaign To
a correspondent Of the Associated
Press who called at Rosemont, Judge
Parker's home. and asked him if he
had anything to say in relation to the
w. Perkins, of the New York Life In
surance Company before the legisla-
tive committee investigating the in
surance business, to the effect that
President John A. Mccall Of that COM
pany had caused contribution of
about $4,000 to be made last year to
the republican national campaign fund,
Judge Parker said:
Eyes, I believe I ought to say, now
that there is no political excitement
to distract the public attention, that
the president Of the New York Life In
surance Company was not the only
such contributor. The officers of other
great life insurance companies, such as
the Equitable and the Mutual also
contributed from the policy holders
fund for campaign purposes last year.
What has been proved in the case
of the New York Life will undoubtedly
be proved in the other cases. The
facts exist, and honest and able coun-
sci, backed by an honest committee,
will undoubtedly bring them out for
the public good.
Were there any investigations of
railroad, manufacturing and other
corporations it would be found that
these life insurance officers were not
the only corporation officers who put
their hands into the treasury and took
moneys belonging to widows and or
phans to help secure a partisan tri-
Nmph.
Claims Corrupt Purposes.
"That their acts were unlawrui and
their purposes corrupI, goes without
saying. They intended to have the mon-
ey used, as 1T was, in corrupting the
electorate. Mr.. Perkins makes the
point that Mr.. John A. Mccall, the
president of the New York Life, is a
democrat. Apparently he would have
the public assume that when Mr.. Nc
Call un1awfully and wrongfully con-
tributed these fuRds-the company's

underwritten synddcate-it was evil,

fall of any portion of California, not
excepting Humboldt county, about 200
miles to the north, which once was
noted for it's heavy falls of rain.
Mr.. Hatfield is not college bred
scientist, but he has devoted many
years of study to meteorology and al
lied subjects. For four years he has
labored exclusively over the phenome-
ma involved in rain making. His prog
ress in this direction has been slow
and beset with many difficulties. Like
many another discoverer of new
scientific principle. he has been Shin

himself. That is the only reservation.
The philosophy of rain making, as ex-
planned by Mr.. Hatfield, uoes not pre-
sent any especial difficulty. The at
mosphere is usually moisture laden
and by force of chemical attraction the
moisture is precipitated. Nature sup
plies the moisture, and Mr.. Hatfield
supplies the chemical attraction neces-
sary to produce cohesion and subse-
quent precipitation. His system is I'M
derstood to operate on any moisture
laden atmosphere lying within ra-
dius affected by the chemical force.

in mind that there is no effort to pro-
duce moisture; that the principles Of
cohesion are employed and moisture is
induced to descend in the form of rain
upon those parts of the earth's surface
where it is most needed. The actual
process appears to be sirnple and Hat

secret of it. He built wooden tower

dence of political virtue, rather than

dence of political virtue, rather than
misconduct.
"The truth about it is, and l say 1t
without feeling, but emphatically, that
men like Mccall have no political con-
victions that stand in the way of their
personal advantage. Such men desire
the triumph of that party which will
better serve their financial interests
and will. for contributions, past, pres
emit and future, continue to protect
those interests by lenierrt legislation
and by pretense at execution
OF law which shall be tenderly
blind to all their offenses. That par
ty they espouse in the board room and
contribute to it of the moneys they
hold in trust, and occasionally little
ol their own.
at is not my purpose to claim that
the democratic party, subjected TO the
temptation which has overcome the
other party, during the last few years,
would have acted differently. Mere
party advantage should not be sought
from the disclosures mace in this In
NeStigation. But the facts should be
diligently sought, that the people may
become SO aroused that they will insist
upon legislation making it a criminal
offense for officers to contribute COR
porate funds for political purposes and
depriving the apparently successful
candidates of their offices.
Efforts in that direction have been
made in different states since Novem-
Der last, and particularly in this state.
But the republican organization would
not consent to it, SO the legislature de-
feated the bills. And the organization
never will consent until an aroused
public sentiment shall threaten legls-
tors with political oblivion who fail to
enact effective laws upon the subject
