buck which was disabled by coming into

THE BANKRUPTCY LAW.

Another effort will be made at the
next session of congress to repeal the
bankruptcy law. A bill for this pur-
pose was introduced in the Fifty-eighth
congress and undoubtedly will again
make its appearance next winter, for the
opposition to the law seems to be still
active, though whether or not 1t has
been strengthened remains to be seen.
The committee on commercial law of
the American Bar association submit
ted a majority and minority report on
the subject The majority report, which
was adopted, recommended that the as
ISOLATION adhere to its strong stand
in behalf of a bankruptcy law as a
part of the permanent Jurisprudence of
the United States and also disapproved
of the bill introduced in congress for
the repeal of the existing law. This
action of a body of representative law
yers can hardly fail to exert a very
considerable influence.
Doubtless the bankruptcy act could
in some respects be advantageously
amended, but we have never seen any
sound reasons why it should be repealed
and a return made to the old order the
nearly universal objection TO which, ia
miliar to all business men who had
experience with it, led to general de-
mand from the commercial interests of
the country for the enactment of a uni

any considerable number Of the business
men of the country who were favorable
TO this legislation before 1t was passed
are now DESTROYS that II should be re-
pealed. Doubtless there are instances
where it's operation has not been alto,
gether satisfactory and persons who
have had such an experience may not be
friendly TO the law but we think the re.
cord under 1t as a whole fully justifes
the demand that It shall be kept on the
statute books, with such amendments as
have been shown 10 be desirable IN
order to improve and strengthen the
law. The Judgment Of the American
Bar association that a bankrupt Law
should be a part of the permanent jurlS
prudence OF the United States is emf
nently sound and In accord with the
purpose OF the trainers of the constitu

Advantages and Dangers
of Life Insurance as a Career
A WORD WITH THE MAN WHO WOULD SUCCEED.

Suppose you were presented with an
opportunity to enter career Of dignity
and responsibility, which, for ability pos
sessed, energy bestowed, and application
given, promised the certainty of greater
reward, both commercially and sentiment
ally than any other career could possibly
give-would you grasp It? Yet this is
what Life Insurance as career Is Offering
every man who would make the most Of
his talent. In a superficial way, you may
have thought Of Life Insurance as a voca-
ton to attract only the mediocre and not
as a calling to demand the highest and
best in a man. II so you have made a
serious mistake Commercially, Life In

industries of today. Combining with its
commercial primacy the humanitarian pur-
pose, its responsibility is greater than that
of any institution known to man.

collar buttons and hair pins. If so you
have been guilty Of grave injustice The
Life Insurance Agent is a financial repre-

In the execution Of his business, he bears

out to the heartbroken parents that the

THE RAILROADS AND 1RRtGAT1oN.

While it has been an open secret for
some time that the commissary depart
ment Of the irrigation propaganda that
eliminated in the national irrigation law
of three years ago was supported by
combination of transcontinental rail-
roads, we believe that the details of
the arrangement were for the first time
made public under official authority in
letter directed by James j. Hill to the
irrigation congress in session at Port
land last week. In this letter the great
railway magnate lays claim for the rail
roads to the credit of inaugurating the
irrigation campaign and explains that
''at first three and a little later FIVE of
the great railroad systems OF the west
united and furnished each 5000 a
year as a working fund to make the
necessary inquiries and to spread the
facts abroad"
Had It been known when the Maxwell
promotion bureau was enlisting support
OF western commercial bodies that the
agitation behind this beneficent project
came simply from an aggregation of
paid lobbyists, absorbing $4,000 to
$50, 900 a year as compensation and In
cidentals in their work. the response
would hardly have been so prompt and
so vigorous. That does not detract from
the fact, however, that the underlying
principle that the national government
should assist by congressional appropri-
alton in the reclamation OF our semi
arid lands is none the less founded in
wisdom and justice, nor will any one
object TO the railroads sharing I'm the
returns sure to accrue from the enter

road magnates with foresight and

II is known that the inspiring motive

roads have already gotten back the
money they spent for promotion.
In this one thing, however, namely,
the occupation of the vacant tracts Of
the western states by self-supporting
bona fide settlers, the interest of the
railroads and Of the general public are
identical, and In the execution of pend
ing irrigation projects and the perfec-
ton of the irrigation law to the end Of
safeguarding reclaimed land, against
misrepresentation by land grabbers both
can work together.

MAN AS A BACK NUMBER.
Another Chicago Professor ARItates
the Humid Atmosphere.


When II comes TO sensational statements
in psychology and sociology commend us
to Chicago. where they seem to discover
more things which are not so than any
other center Of the globe. one of It's learned
educators has just announced that man is
back number that women are increas-
ing in numbers and potentiality beyond
men and that the males will soon be driven
back to the farm for a chance to get a
living. He makes the cate orical state
ment that more girl babies than boys are
born and that women have, according to
returns in the last two census years, leaped
from a trihe less than 100000 of wage earn
ers to more than 100000.
Well, what of It?
There is no law of society or state that
can prevent women from earning a living.
Most of them work as do men and the re-
arrangement is simply a difference OF oc-
cupation. If more girls decline TO stay
at home and help mother" and prefer
to earn their own money It seems to us
that, under normal conditions, II Is a great
gain to society. 1t leaves fewer to be sup
ported by the men, and that is a blessing,
since women have come to have so many
new wants that must be supplied. Accord
ing to the last census men were still pretty
near 100000 to the good in this country
and If the female population is, as asserted,
increasing more rapidly than that of males
II will take a good while to catch up. At
present there seems to be no danger that
there will necessarily be a resort to polyg-
amy to supply the demand for husbands.
Massachusetts alone has any notable de-
felt OF men, and this amounts only to
about 5000 In a population OF almost 5000. =
900.
We see not the slightest objection to
women becoming wage earners. 1t creates
much larger demand for merchandise Of
all sorts, and II eventually 1t sends more
men back to the farms II will be no loss
In these days farming IL not only a profit
able occupation, but is becoming more and
more delightful compared with the exist
ence Of many of the jewellers in cities. II
women get control OF the world II will
only be in pursuance Of the memorable law
of the survival OF the ittest.
