UNION OF POLICYHOLDERS.
Iroquois Club Back of National Move
nnent to Probe Insurance.

CHICAGO, Aug. "a big conven-
ton of policyholders for the purpose of
determining the affairs of every life
insurance company in the country is
the aim of the Iroquois club of Chi
cago, which mas taken the first step
toward starting the national move
ment.
At meeting of the executive COM
mittee OF the club held yesterday, a
resolution was adopted empowering
the organization to appoint commit
tee of five members to invite dele
gates from other clubs to meet and
consider the feasibility Of the plan
Rivers Mcneil, member of the 1ro-
quois club and millionaire, refuct-
antly admits that he is the originator
of the plan, which is Endorsed by
Charles F. Gunther, president of the
club.
AS outlined by Mr.. Mcneil and Mr..
Gunther the plan by which the ''peo-
pie will find out where they are at in
the life insurance business" is in
brief as follows:
1.-The appointment by the Iroquois
club of a committee of club members
to invite suitable delegations from
other clubs to confer on the feasibility
of the project.
IF favorable conclusions are reach
ed by the Chicago clubs, the extension
of the movement to other representa-
tive clubs throughout the state.
"A state convention of club dele
gates and a formal welding together
of a state life insurance policy hold
ers organization.
"The propagation of the idea
throughout the union until some or
ganization has been effected in ev-
cry state in the union and delegates
appointed to meet in a national con-
vention for the purpose of inaugu-
rating a general investigation in the
life insurance field.
"a national convention"
Mr.. Mcneil thinks the time is ripe
for persons paying money into life
insurance companies to find out what
becomes of their dollars.

INSURGENTS PLOT.
Politics Already Begin to Boil in the
State of South Dakota.

PIERRE, S. D., Aug. 9.-Tne an
nouncement of the candidacy of E.
W. Martin for the United States SEN
ate, to succeed Senator Gamble, means
that Congressman Martin has burned
his congressional bridge and will at
tempt to step higher.
His action also opens the door for
two congressman east of the river, as
it is not likely that the Black Hills
section can expect to hold both con-
gresham and a senator. This will
no doubt mean a congressman from
the northern part of the state, and
in that connection Brown county will
no doubt be asking for recognition.
In that county are three men who are
credited with desire for congress-
former Governor Herried, A. w.
Campbell and James S. Lawson. The
ambitions of these three men will
Republicans Of that county, and may
become so heated that some other
county in the northern part Of the
state may claim and take the prize. In
that direction L. D. Bentley of Grant
county is considered as an open can
didate for the place, J. E. McDougall
of Marshall is known to have aspira-
tons.
The indications all point to a mighty
effort on the part of the "insurgent"
element to wrest the central of state
affairs from the present organization,
and they are silently working up an
organization of their own, which they
believe they can make strong enough
| to place their followers in power and
| become the machine themselves, If
they succeed in this it will mean an
| entirely new alignment in official life
and the bringing to the front of
| Crawford, Pettigrew, Thorson, Rings
| rud, Eastman and other Old time lead
| ers instead of those now at the front.
The Martin announcement means
like to try for the places on the tick
ct will soon begin to make themselves
known, and will be looking after their
fences all over the state.

happens, these subordinates are faith
less, trouble comes for the cabinet Off
Ger.
In most cases these subOrjinates be-
long to the system and are inherited
by each succeeding cabinet official
Secretary Wilson, for example, inher-
tied Hyde and Holmes and all the
other subordinates VINO have been
causing him so much trouble. They
were protected by the civil service, and
Mr.. Wilson could not have got rid of
them eve had he wanted to do so, save
for cause.
The investigation into departmental
affairs, under the order of the presi-
dent, is to be thorough, and it will be
a wonder if any guilty man escapes.
Aside from the crop leak, the offenses
thus far discovered are trivial. DR..
Moores remote connections with a
company organized to sell soil suit
ures, for instance, would not have at
tracted attention at any other time.
His chief sin seems to have been his

superiors.

of Chinese desiring to come to Amer
lea, and, if the examination proves
that they are of the exempt classes, to
issue credentials to them which will
be accepted without question at
American ports.
By this plan the investigation will
be much more simple and satisfactory.
The immigration agent who is on
the ground in China will nave less
the officials at an American port
would nave, and, if the decision is
against the Chinaman he will have
been saved the expense of trip half
way around the world.
At the same time it is understood
that this method of enforcement
would be much more satisfactory to
the Chinese government.
The nope is entertained that, by
this plan, the Chinese authorities may
be induced to consent to a renewal of
the old treaty, and that prejudices
that have resulted in the Chinese boy
colt may be, in large measure, ap-
peased.
At the same time no substantial
concession would nave been made in
antagonism to the Pacific coast senti-
ment against Chinese immigration.

WON'T LET WILSON QUIT.
Secretary Offers to Resign, But Roose
welt Won't Listen.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-When Sec
rotary Wilson was at Oyster Bay he
offered to tender his resignation, but
the president, with characteristic
frankness and confidence, declined to
consider the proposal, or even to dis
cuss it. He believes in the honesty of
the secretary as we'll as in his de-
sire to correct the abuses which
have crept into the agricultural de-
partment.
The trouble with Secretary Wilson is
easily understood. To begin with he
is not a high-grade executive officer,
and this has put rascality at premi-
UNI. While he has been engrossed in
the great problems of departmental
developments and usefulness to the
country at large, some Of the men he
trusted have played him false. A Sec
rotary of the treasury once remarked
that there were twenty men in that
department VINO had it absolutely in
their power to ruin him. The attention
of every cabinet officer is largely di-
rected to the larger question of pol
icy, and he must trust nearly all his
ROUTE department matters to his sub
ordiates, and when, as occasionally

INSPECT CHINESE,
Government Likely Will Adopt This
Plan as Compromise.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-What is
considered a clever compromise on the
question of Chinese exclusion regula-
tons is likely to be recommended by
the department of commerce and la
Dor as a solution of the difficulties
back of the Chinese boycott of Amer
lean manufacturers.
For some time an investigation of
this question of exclusion and exclu-
sion methods has been going on, and
the department officials VINO have been
conducting it are said to have reach
ed an agreement on a policy they will
recommend
AT present Chinese of certain classes,
such as scholars, merchants, students,
etc., are entitled to admission to this
country. There is much protest. ne
cause, first some of these exempt
classes are said to have been re-
fused admission; and second. be-
cause people belonging to the excluded
classes are permitted to involve them
selves in the great expense of travel
Ing to these shores before they are
made aware that they will not be ad-
mitted.
Accordingly it is proposed to put
the regulations into more practicable
form and at the same time throw a
sop to Chinese succeptibilities. by
having the inspecting and regulating
ooie on the other side. This can be
managed by establishing representa-
yves of the state department
ana immigration service at con-
ehieh' ports in China, with
au'horlty to examine the claims
