Insurance in General.

Asked for his views on life insurance.
Mr.. Tarbell said;
Fright in this country alone the
amount that has been paid 10 policy
holders has gone beyond $S,500,000,O00
and the amount held by American COM
panies Is beyond $500, 100000. There is
no country on the earth that has done
anything TO compare with it, and the
benefit TO this country as a nation is
permanent. The good that has been
done by life insurance companies in
very many ways. by the diminishing of
pauDeFism and by giving more boys a
good education, is something that is
deserving of a great deal of thought

Fields was opposed. Probably, he said,

Mr.. Hughes suggested that Mr.. Tar

that he would be glad 70 do anything
he can to help it along.
Mr.. Hughes said: ut is such a good

Mr., Tarbell said that since Jan.

Memory AGAIN Faulty.

Mr.. Plat said he knew nothing about
the contributions by the Mutual Life
Insurance company and the Equitable
society to the national campaign fund
in 1896. He did not remember that
there was any cooperation between
Cornelius \. Bliss and his conduct of
the campaign OF 1900 or 1904. He said
he knew nothing about the contribu-
tons approximating S50.000 made by
the New York Life Insurance company
10 the national committee in the last
presidential campaign and that he did
not know that the Equitable society
had given $4,000 during that cam
paign. The senator could not remem-
Der when he began to receive contribu-
tiOns from insurance companies, but
thought il might be fifteen years ago
or more. He expressed the opinion that
life insurance companies were justified
i'm making campaign contributions While
the gold issue was at stake. He did
not care TO pass upon the justification
of the companies in giving money Tor
state campaign purposes.

Rural Delivery.

For the maintenance Of rural deliv-
cry service and its proper extension
over S29 600, coo will be required. This
is an increase of $500, 600 over the
appropriation for the current year,
which in turn is over 100000 more
than that Of last year, so that the
present estimate is 81 AGO 600 less than
the increase Of the present over the
preceding year.
That the extension of the pneumatic
tube service is contemplated is shown
by the fact that the estimate carries
$322. zoo more than the current appro-
pria ton.

Judge Sloan Permits The Company To Take
 Possession
Owner Perrin To Take Appeal To Supreme
 Court

Old volcanic cinder pits when made available for use seem to be almost as valuable as mines containing pre- cious metal The suit known as the Grand Canyon Railroad Company vs. E. B. Perrin, has been finally settled by Judge Sloan in the district court, by an order being issued permitting the railroad to go ahead with con- demnation proceedings, preliminary to the purchase of the property.
 As has already been made public, the owner of the einder pit in issue declined to permit the road to condemn it without a struggle, and the case has aroused much interest in the hear ing just completed. The court held that a necessity exists for the condem- nation of the property by the railroad, and in the order made admitted it to immediate possession of the einder pit, under bond to protect the de- fendant in the sum of $25,000.
 Attorney Doe of Flagstaff gave no- tiee of appeal to the supreme court, indicating that the order made was of a final nature, and that the matter would be carried to the United States supreme court. Effort was made to have a heavier bond issue for the pro- tection of the defendant, but was not successful.
 Argument on this point showed that because the railroad came into pos session and would retain it until the settlement in the higher court, the con tents of the pit (the real value) would be removed, and that the bond in the sum of s25.O0O might be insufficient to cover the damage should the decision of the supreme court be favorable ts defendant.
 It was shown that should the com pany strip the pit to ballast it's road, during the probable time required to decide the case in the higher court, it is possible for something like half a mil lion dollars worth of einders to be talk en out and used, the figures being based upon the price per car of cinders at this time.
 While the case affects another dis trict of the territory much interest is being shown in it among the legal fra ternity in Prescott. The owner of the pit is a man of great wealth, and it is no secret that he will carry the case tc the highest tribunal to prove his right to refuse to allow the property to be condemned.
