sIenstrous system of Fleeing.

Struck by the movement among ac-
cidenf insurance officers and claim
agents OF divers corporations TO or
ganize for protection against fake dam
age suits. the editors of Pearson S
magazine recently undertook TO gather
Information as 10 the extent of these
frauds. Some OF the results are pub
lished in the July number. They are
diyerting and instructive and amazing.
IL is shown that annually railroads, cor
porations, cities and towns throughout
the United States are tieeced out of a
sum estimated conservaiiyely at no
less than $15.00O,000. They are made
victims of shrewd criminals and con-
scienceiess fakirs who follow the pro-
fession of getting hurt, and against
whose operations the defendants are
powerless.
In their Investigations the maya
zines representatives found innumer-
able stories of brazen fraud. They tell
of instances wherein cities are mulcted
of thousands by persons who pretend
TO have been injured by some munich
pal negligence, and they impose on
physicians and surgeons and jurors.
They cite many cases wherein railway
companies are swindled by men and
women and children who tell tales of
injury from jolts. collisions, broken
glass and other things. although the
records OF the companies and the tes-
timony of witnesses make il clear that
not only were the persons not hurt. but
that no such accidents occurred. They
point out among the others the ludl-
J crous case of man who stood on the
platform of Missour, Kansas q
Texas railroad train at HillsbOro, Tex,
I and saw another man crushed under
the wheels. He sued the railroad COM
pany for S.. 900 because of the horror
and mental anguish he was subjected

The Wheat Problem.

Some questions, broader even than
the matter of the producers prosperity
are likely TO be tested as a result OF
the grain harvest of 1905. The phe,
nomenon of the past two years has
been the disappearance of the United
States. at first gradually, then rapid
from the ranks of important wheat eX
porters.
The government returns for May
show exports OF wheat, in both grain
and flour, amounting To 100000 bush
els: as lately as May, 1902. they were
Il. 500. 900. The total wheat and -four
exports. since the harvest of 1904, have
been smaller than any year in our his
tory since 1872
Expert opinion has Veered 10 the be
lief that our place as a wheateNporter
can be regained, the three reasons
commonly assigned being loss of their
early productiveness by the older
wheat lands; diversion of the lands 20
other more profitable purposes. as ru-
raj communities grow into urban, and
rapid increase in home consumption
as our population increases.
The last years experience has actu-
ally proved that crop which would
have been deemed very large 10 years
ago. is now insufficient 10 feed our peo-
pie and leave surplus. but last year
So, 900 .00O.bnshel harvest was small
compared with the ~ 900. 000-bushel
yield of 1901 The margin between the
two woal3 provide for a very respect

tremely interesting. because fhe grain

Lo que tiene este pueblo son derechos. iSe
les usurpan? Pues la opinion pdblica tiene
otro -derecho mas, denunciar quienes CO.
meten ese feo delito. Denunciarles en- to-
das parties.
Y que importa, que importa un pue,
bio que tiene derechos, que el gobierno I'll.
Ell gobierno B.-gobiernos impuestos
Sc enojen con Puerto Rico; que importa2
5Que importa que Sc Vayan con Poncio Pi-
latos con Celestino? Ell pueblo que tie
ne conciencia de sus derechos, no Sc va con
nadie
Puede ser caballeroso con todos los GO
biernos, pero por ESQ mismo debe en- pFi-
mer termino ser pueblo patri6tico.
Por encima de Ia patria, Dios los de-
rechos de esta. NADIA mas. Todo 10 que
no encaje en ese molde, es NAL ejemplo,
corruptor ejemplo que Sc ofreciear nuestro
bondadosfsimo pueblo.
DON MODESTO.
