INSURANCE TAX FIGHT.


Senate Bill rs, the Insurance tax
BILL on third reading, saw renewal of
Dickey's endeavor to have the tax
levied upon the business done irrespec-
tive of the losses paid. The law, as
drawn, makes exemption if the losses
amount to more than the income from
policies Achi backed Dickey, ana
Dowsett defended the bill as drawn,
urging that insurance companies would
get back on the public if they were
taxed too much. Dickey, however, won
his point and the exemption was strick-
en- from the bill.
Dickey made the same point with
reference to life insurance companies.
This likewise carried, and in accord
ance with the bill as it stands all in
surance companies must pay per cent
on their gross receipts from all bust
ness written. The bill then passed,
Achi, Dowsett, Isenberg and Woods
voting against it.
Bishop once more handed in the re-
port of his special committee on the
license bill. 1t was owed by Achi
that the bill be taken up at D. M,
and this carried.
Senate Bill 1913, the income tax bill,
on second reading, was referred to the
ways ana Means committee.
Hayselden introduced petition
from citizens of America asking fol
the issuance of a wine and beer IL
cense Tor the leper settlement. The
citizens of America objected to being
compelled to drink swipes. There were
several hundred names signed to the
petition, which was referred to a spe
cial committee consisting of Dowsett,
Gandall and Achi.
At the afternoon session the Ways
and Means Committee reported favor
ably on the bill to forbid the use of
trading stamps. This is Senate Bill
100. Tabled to be considered with the
bill.
The Ways and Means Committee re-
ported favOrabIy on the bill to pro-
vide for the sale Of mortgaged stock
or bonds. This is Senate Bill 118.
Tabled to be considered with the bill.

1t begins to look as If the passion
for novel reading had begun to die Of
Its own excess. Certainly the desire
for this form of reading is on the
wane. The sales of 1904 are reported
to have been far below those of the
years Immediately preceding. The de-
crease affects all sorts of novels, from
the profound psychological work to the
highest flight Of fancy in the daintiest
romance. OF course, novels will con-
tinue to be read, for the story in some
form has lived through all time and
the all-absorbing interest in works of
fiction Is about to give place to some
thing else or perhaps to many things.
Real life has Its destinations. People
enjoy society rather than the novel of
high life. The historical romance has
led to a greater interest in history
proper. The sociological novel has de-
veloped a desire for participation in
civic matters, devotion to slum work
and the kinds of activity that may ben
eft the masses. Naturally, then, news
papers and magazines are read far
more than formerly, since they deal
chiefly with current events and with
those things which are Of Importance
at the present moment. They offer a
glance of the entire world and empha-
size those points where present activity
Is greatest. They deal with the real
world and people of to-day want facts
rather than fancies; live issues rather
than the possible quarreIs Of hyper
sensitive lovers. The stage, too, Is
somewhat responsible for the decay of
the novel. Tired people want enter
taInment and often prefer to take 1t
passively. They can get the contents
of novel in the three or Ave acts of
a play and the accessories often given
a more vivid presenta ton of plot and
denouement than the lengthy novel is
apt to do. This does not mean that
drama will take the place of novel
reading to any great extent, for there
are evidences that the drama Is itself
to give place to something not yet de-
termined. If the novel has seen it's
best day 1t can certainly claim that It's
day was great and brilliant one, that
1t accomplished genuine purpose and
that humanity Is broader in its intelli-
gence, Its sympathies and its activities
than it would have been but for the
great popularity Of the novel during the
past four decades.

II had not been aware of the varv
existence of this text" he said, ",nI
l do not know who but an angel conld
have led me to it; but | felt thot
whether l received my sight or NOT
those words were enough for me- and
from that time | seemed to know tho+
