OF all the rotten and corrupt cor
porations in existence, the big life
insurance companies, such as New
York Life and Equitable, are prov
Ing to be the most corrupt, and every
one Of their officers who have been
engaged in defrauding the policy
holders ought to be sent to prison.
The investigation shows that the
money Of the policy holders, to the
amount Of $50, QUO in the case of the
New York Life, was contributed 10
the republican national campaign
fund last year. No doubt the other
compaies were called upon for the
same amount. These companies rep
1esent people of every political
faith and even have a large list Of
foreign policy holders whose money
went into the republican campaign
fund. This is not only common rob-
berry, bat II is taking the money Of
the individual to be used in further.
ing political principles in which he
does not believe. The crime is worse
than highway robbery. Yet this Is
but one method Of robbing the policy
holders. Hundreds Of Thousands OF
dollars have been squandsrsd for the
benefit Of the officers; their relatives
have been pensioned and funds have
been placed with bank and trust
companies owned By officers of the
insurance companies and interest
hlched from the policy holders in big
sums.
What lie true of the companies so
far Investigated, will probably prove
true of others, and where the coTup-
lion will end no one knows; but all
will agree that some remedial legisla.

tion, either state or national, Is an
absolute necessity, Life insurance
has become so closely associated with
the individual life aud so much ma
tionalized in its scope that 1t Is a
part of the social fabric of the people.
1t has become 90 general that
scarcely home is without such pro-
tection In some branch Of the bust
ness. This being true, there are
many who believe the subject one for
national legislation and supervision.
This is the age Of commeroialism
and to succeed in accommodating a few
paltry dollars. which are Of value
only in supplying the wants Of the
individual, men will stOop to all
kinds Of questionable transactions.
The greed for gold seems to have
taken hold Of all classes; it is seen
in all branches of society from the
pulpit down. Ii is a grasping,
grinding, greed for money, that is
sapping the honesty of the nation
and causing such gigantic swindles
as those of the big life insurance
and their horde of smaller
and lesser frauds to be practiced on
the people. They do not call il
thievery, it is commercialism ia the
modern way of looking at things.
But publicity is doing its work aud
these evils will DO corrected. The
process may be slow, but it is sure.

TAXING THE PEOPLE.

The state board of equalization,
when in session, found that under the
limits of the constitution it would
be short of funds for carrying out the
laws passed by the last legislature
appropriating money for various pur-
poses and for carrying on the state ad =
ministration. 1t levied tax to meet
these conditions in excess of the con
stitutional limit. An effort is now be-
ing made to defend the action OF the
state board by quoting section l,
article s Of the constitution. In an
other column We publish communi
cation from County Attorney Whit.
la, who criticises the Press and comes
to the rescue of the state board in its
illegal acts. He also uses the above
provision of the constitution to sus-
tain his contention.
1t says that the legislature shall
not create any debt exceeding / j.
per cent Of the taxable property OF
the state unless the same is author.
lied by law for some special purpose
distinctly specified therein, which
means authority for issuing bonds
and If the amount is l = per centum
OF the taxable property Of the state
then only by a vote Of the people can
such law be made binding. There is
no provision for a state board of
equalization exceeding the constitu-
tiOnal limit of i've mills taxation
and If its illegal acts now 90 uncon-
tested there will be no end to the
burdens the state officers will heap
upon the peolpe in the shape of spec
ial levies for specific purposes. Mr..
Whitla says that under this section of
the constitution the state board can
levy special taxes for certain pur-
poses, but if be will read carefully (
he must conclude that the right is I
not given to the legislature or board 4
of equalization. The constitution .
clearly prohibits a tax levy beyond |
the five mill limit under the present /
valuation and the quibbliug OF the .
county attorney aud attorney general |
over the matter will not change the /
minds of the people that the action
Of the state board is simply unwar-
ranted and illegal robbery of those
who pay the taxes.
We do not believe that Mr.. Whit
las advice to the board Of county
commissioners Is sound. because it
clearly conflicts with the plain provis-
ions Of the constitution 10 a manner
that any layman ought to understand.
Governor Goodiug knew that the leg
islature and his administration we're
exceeding the constitutional limit
when he advised the members to sob
NIT az amendment to raise the limit
Of the levy 10 vote OF the people.
The state BOARD made its own figures
and gave them out stating that the
farm lands Of Kouteuai county bad
been raised . per cent, while rail
roads taxed at only IL per ceut Of
their value we're raised but per
cent, so that Mr. Whitla's explain
alton of this matter does not seem to
hold good
