these isolated cases weigh but a trifie in
the balance against all the good results
that inure to the commercial world under
the law -
The rogue can find much easier loop
hole of escape under the state insolvent
laws, and these laws are, after all, a
mere local makeshift and substitute for
q general bankruptcy law. They are based
on the same want and the same prin-
ciples as such law, but to q large extent
they fail to give such favorable results
and are much more wasteful, dilatory and
expensive, and fail to give as good return
to the creditors.
We are apt to look at matters from the
standpoint Of our immediate environment
and from the standpoint Of our own per-
sonal experience. But when we come to
legislate for a great country such as ours,
with Its more than eighty million people,
We must take a broader and more gen
eral view Of the subject and look beyond
the isolated case that has come under our
observation, and aim to get such a result,
as near as may be, that will, in general.
accomplish the most good for the indus
trial, the commercial and financial inter-
ests Of the country. Our vision and our
aim should not be limited or bounded
by state, county or local lines. The great
currents Of traffic and trade throb to
the utternost limits of our country and
we are all sharers to a greater or less
extent in the general prosperity. The
commercial world breathes freer, rests
easier and is possessed Of more conf
dence with q national bankruptcy law
than with forty-ffve different insolvent
and assignment laws. Uniformity and
certainty in the administration Of IN
solvent estates ought to prevail thruout
our entire country and this is best secured
| thru national bankruptcy law.

tions Of the law thruout the entire cour-
try demonstrate the advantages and ben
efits Of the law tQs our commercial and
financial classes and show the neces-
sity for It's existence. So far as know,
all the great commercial and enlightened
nations OF the world have general sys-
tenn of bankruptcy laws. To leave us
without national system and to remit
the vast commercial manufacturing and
financial interests Of our great country
to forty Ave different state insolvent
laws is not only from broad national
standpoint, compared with other nations,
humiliating, but 1T is also unjust and a
disadvantage and drawback to these
great interests.
State Laws Criticised.
Under our state insolvent laws the In
solvent debtor scan hySan assignment put
his estate into the hands Of an assignee,
or his creditors can put his estate into
and distribution IN either case the
creditors get no share OF the proceeds
unless they give a. release for everything
except what they secure from the estate.
They have an option to share and re-
lease, or to still keep their claim In the
air. The process Of liquidation and dis
tribution is cunlbrous and dilatory as
compared with that under the bank
rupcy law. There Is no limit to fees and
allowances except the discretion Of the
| judge. In many instances enormous
! fees have been allowed the receiver and
his attorney, outsof all proportion to the
real service rendered. There have beer
instances in this state where distric
judges have resigned their places for the
sake Of being receivers or attorneys fol

The supreme court had practically
held that a partial payment made in

law, and the creditor must surrender

AS to the agitation for repeal, Sen
ator Nelson said:
Fairest and Best Of All.
While the law undoubtedly still has
imperfections-and what human law has
not-and might be improved upon in sew
eral particulars, yet think that all per-
sons who are conversant with our bank

ent moment will concur in the opinion
that on the whole, the present law is by
far, taking all matters into consideration.

least expensive of all the bankruptcy laws

| The attorney general of the United

Ing from his reports:
In the report Of 1898 he states:
1.-The law Of July 1. 1898. is a vast i'm
provement over previous legislation. It
has profited by the experience gained I'M
der the earlier laws and retains their
good features, while many other impor-
| tant and valuable provisions have been
added to meet the present need and de-
mand of the people. The system as found
/ in this law is most complete, even to
many of the minutest details, altho some
minor amendments may be suggested and
others will be as the actual workings Of
the law demonstrates the necessity there
for
And again, in the report of 1901, he
states:
1 "a careful inspection, however, Of the
various reports as filed discloses the fact
that this charge is reduced to minimum
and it may be safely said that it Is ma
1 terially less than the amount usually
i incurred in the settlement of an insolvent
