BIG INSURANCE RATE
Fire Risks in Minnesota Higher
Than Average Figures

The first meeting of the Ware insur-
ance investigation committee was suf-
fcient to explode the contention that
the country districts are paying the
cities fire insurance bills.
Reports of the state insurance de-
partment for the past eleven years
showed that in st. Paul, Minneapolis
and Duluth the ratio of losses to pre-
miums paid was so per cent In the
so-called fire department towns the
ratio was so per cent, and in the re-
mainder of the state the ratio was SO
per cent.
That the average insurance rate in
Minnesota is higher than the general
average of the country was also dis
closed. The average rate per 500 of
insurance in Minnesota is $142, as
against $1.16 in the various states of
the Union. In Minnesota, in 1903,
there were 100000 in premiums paid,
with losses of $1,534,445. The average
rate on mutuals was $1.S5 per $780,
w. w. Bardwell, of the committee
said that he knew of no authority by
which the state could compel insur-
ance companies to write risks if they
refused to do so, and this undisputed
TACT somewhat discouraged the COM
mittee.
I. d. O'Brien, state insurance COM
AAAASoiOhCA, SdAQ was no ODJSCIlOn
to the fixing of risks by experts, but
the penalty clause which was enforced
against most companies was an abso-
Lutte prohibition of competition among
the companies. James Shearer, the
Minneapolis attorney for the insur-
ance companies. who was before the
committee, said that the companies
wished as low a rate of insurance as
is consistent with business methods,
and cited Virginia, st. Louis county,
where with per cent rate, losses had
amounted to 800 and 400 per cent. A
j. Rockne declared that Minnesota is
the only state in the Union which does
not enforce an anti-compact insurance
law. and. Mr.. Shearer responded by
saying that the installation of the law
in Iowa had resulted in an increase of
its insurance rates.
The committee will meet Monday at
the office of G. w. La Brande, chief
inspector for the underwriters. Walter
/. Fisher, Minneapolis, secretary of
the state board of underwriters will
also attend the hearing and explain the
system of establishing rates on fire in
surance risks.

Attorney General Young's substitute
the prevention of trespass on state
lands, will be reported to the full house
committee on state lands today by a
subcommittee, consisting of ]. G. Lund,
Asher Murray and L. H. Johnson. The
bill prepared by the attorney general
embodies his recommendations and
those of the governor relating to the
depredations on state lands
The bill permits the recovery of
treble damages for willful trespass
and double damage for casual trespass.
Courts are made to charge grand juries
at each term of the necessity of in
vestigating pine land trespass. The
trials of cases are to be held in courts
of competent jurisdiction. A timber
board, consisting of the governor,
treasurer and attorney general, is Gre
ated by the bill, and special agents, to
report direct to the governor, are au-
thoriZed TO check over the work of the
state eStimators. new feature is a

OLE PETERSON HAS
NEW PRIMARY BILL

Combining the convention and direct
primary dieas, a primary election bill
introduced In the house yesterday by
Representative Ole Peterson, Of Mic
ollet, attracted attention. County and
state conventions will vote on nomi-
nations for county, legislative. con-
gressional and state officers. The three
candidates for each office receiving the
highest number of votes In the con-
vention will be the candidates in the
primary election. The bill bars others
from participating as candidates.
Party caucuses are set for the third
Friday in June, and county conven-
tons the third Saturday in the same
month. County conventions, in select
ing delegates to state conventions, are
to give commissioner districts euuita-
bic representation. Ballots for county
and legislative tickets are limited to
one. The state convention, to be held
the fourth Friday in June, is also to
be the date Of the congressional con-
ventions, held apart from the state
conventions, but by delegates elected
to the state convention. Candidates
on the primary ballot are to pay the
same filing fees as are now prescribed,
and the date of the primary election is
to be the Same as now held.

HFNNFP|N SYSTEM
is IN D|SFAVOR
Ramsey Delegation in LegisIa.
ture Indorses County Off.
Ger Measures

Ramsey county officials were in evi-
dence before a meeting of the Ramsey
house delegation yesterday to urge the
passage of bills which will prevent
county officials on a fee basis from
being placed under the Hennepin coun-
ty salary system. Disclosures of the
1905 state census, it is feared, will ef-
feet the change.
1t is expected that the state census
of 1905 will show Ramsey county to
have population of 100000. Henne-
pin county officers are working under
general laws affecting counties of 200,-
600 population, but which only affect
that county. 1t is almost certain that
the same laws will affect Ramsey coun-
ty officials, if no legislation is enacted.
To prevent this two bills will be in
troduced making the basis of popula-
tion the federal census and ignoring
the state census. The county officials
who would be affected by any change
in the system of fees to salary basis
are the sheriff, clerk of court, register
of deeds and assistant county attorney.
The proposed legislation will affect
only Ramsey and Hennepin counties.
and it is the programme to immedi-
ately refer the two bills to the Henne
pin county delegation for its considera-
ton. The Ramsey county delegation is
unanimously for the bills and will in
troduce them as delegation measures.

The instant after the chair announc-

next day to reconsider the vote.
Senator Schaller forestalled the Hen
nepin man by moving to reconsider the
vote then and there. The motion was
lost by vote of 43 to 4.
Thus ended the fight against the
board of control in the senate, the
measure owing its defeat to the same
amendments that killed the bill two
years ago.

IMMIGRATION BILLS
DIE IN COMMITTEE
Cole and Flower Measures Set Aside
by Substitute

Both the Cole and Flower immigra-
tion bills were recommended for in
definite postponement by the house
committee on immigration yesterday.
Instead, the terms of substitute bill
were agreed to by the committee. The
substitute will recommend an appro-
priation of S2S.00o for the next two
years. to provide statistician to work

commissioner. He is to compile sta
tistics as to the resources OF the state
and to secure wider publicity for the
sales of state lands Provision is also
to be made for extensive advertising
in agricultural papers outside the
state. The Cole bill contemplated
state board of immigration and the
Flower bill made a direct appropria-
ton of $4,000 to the State Immigra-
ton society.

HOUSE PLANS PAY DAY
FOR CAPITOL EMPLOYEES
r. T. Lewis Bill Setting Aside $4,000
Is Rushed Through

Pay for the new capitol employees is
in sight A bill presented by r. T.
Lewis, of Duluth, in the house yester-
day carries an appropriation of $4,000
to pay the employees until some perma-
nent arrangement is made for the con-
troll of the new building. 1t was pass
ed under suspension of the rules and Is
expected to pass the senate today.
The house had previously passed a
resolution advising the state treasurer
to issue temporary orders for the relief
of the employees, but had failed to pro-
vide an appropriation. The state
treasurer had therefore refused to is
sue warrants. The employees have had
no pay since beginning work late in
December. and numbers of them are
said to be suffering for the necessaries
of life.
