Congress man Haskins' Speech.

We commend to our readers atten.
tion the speech Of Congressman Haskins
delivered last Wednesday in the House
upon the federal supervision of insurance.
Mr. Haskins takes issue with those who
advocate government control of these
corporations and makes a strong de.
tense OF the present methods OF state
supervision. Our representative does
not often address the House, but when
he does he always has something worth
saying and which his colleagues are g ad
to hear. His address commanded the
close attention OF his audience and he
received loud applause when he took his
seat.
incidentally be took occasion to say
good word for our Vermont company,
the National Life, all of which was
deserved. Indeed, this part of his address
was so well received that Champ"
Clark of Missouri interrupted him and
said he would like to take policy in the
company. Vermont is proud OF the fact
that her own company is free from the
discreditable methods of the big COM
panies and that it has at it's head such a
recognized authority in insurance as

and the translation is here given:
IL have known Prof. Krumpeln for 10
years. He is a remarkable man, and
worthy OF the highest esteem, and ready
to help at all times. He is a strong
character in whom one can place implicit
trust. AS a musician he is very gifted
and many sided. A true artist on the
organ, he understands, as few do. how
to make his recitals interesting. 1t is a
musical pleasure to hear him. He is also
an excellent church organist, and as a
cholrmaster he is exceptional in drilling
and directing the chorus. | have often
heard him play solo pieces on the piano
with great success. He also understands
the difficult art of accompanying both
song and instrument. This he does with
hne feeling and artistic sympathy. He is
thoroughly accomplished musician, as
IS shown by his various compositions for
organ, piano and other instruments. He
is also an exceptional teacher in all these
branches OF the art"

"reminiscences of an Advertiser.

George P. Rowell, the veteran adver.
Using agent, has been writing for
Printers Ink the past year a series of
very entertaining papers upon the evolu.
ton of advertising, accompanied with
many personal "reminiscences. The
manager OF Printers Ink will soon pub
lish this series in book form and we feel
sure 1t will prove to be volume that
will be eagerly read and preserved for
reference. For nearly half century Mr..
Rowell has been in close touch with
advertisers and his experiences are full of
wit and wisdom. The opening para.
craps OF the forthcoming book have a
local flavor which all our readers will

CALIFORNIAN was naturally OF that strioe

he too took a paper that sustained his
political views. His paper became known
to me about as soon as the other. 1t
was called the North Star and was
printed at Danville, town of more i'm.

papers carried at it's head verse which

That Extra Sunday.
The present year, 1905, contains SO
Sundays. Several of our exchanges have
stated that this occurrence will not
happen again for ITO years. S. c. Gould
OF Manchester, N. H., in note to the
Union OF that city takes contrary view
and says that the nineteenth century
contained eleven years, containing So
Sundays as iollows:-1S09, 1915, 1926,
1897. 1S43, 1854, 1865, 1871, 1882,
1898, 1899. The 4entieth century will
contain also eleven years with SO Sum

1928, 1889, 1850, 1861, 1867, 1878,

Conditions in South Africa.
A London authority gives gloomy
picture OF things in South Africa after
three years OF peace. The boom that
was hoped for and banked upon at the
close OF the war did not come. Expan-
sion IN business was counted upon as
certain, and merchants bought huge
supplies, only to be sadly disappointed.
Laborers could not be secured for the
mines, and mining shares dropped off

values and it would have been strange if
the bitter struggle in South Africa had
led to immediate prosperity. Things had

has about ended, it is possible that the
expansion dreamed OF by the enterpris.
