itself may give. Privileges, mo-.
nopoly privileges, law protected
privileges are gratis and should be
hateful to every Democrat.
When the directors of a great
insurance company use the money
in their hands for their own profit,
that is a graft; when the president
of great insurance company takes
funds held in trust for the benefi-
Charles of insurance policies and
without their knowledge and con-
sent concerts part of the trust
funds in a political campaign fund,
that is embezzlement just the same
as if a public official in charge of
the public funds were to put his
hands into the public treasury and
take tbcrc.rOm money which he
tuins over to someone else for po-
litical or private purposes.
The officials of a life.iusurancc
should be prosecuted when they
are faithless the same us corrupt
men in public office.
Legitimate combinations of cap
ital, wherever they may be, for in
surance purposes or otherwise, are
entitled to fair treatment the same
as individuals, to equal and exact
justice, no more and 10 less. But
if they cannot exist without re.
sorting to bribery aud surpentine
violations of the law it would be
better for the people that they be
wiped out Of existence. The time
may come when the State will in
sure her own citizens at far less
cost, and with far more safety to
those who need that protection.
