INSURANCE INVESTIGATION.
wisconsin Legislative Inquiry Opens
at Milwaukee.

Milwaukee, April 13.-The insurance
aREest cation committee selected by
the Wisconsin legislature in special
session for the Investigation of life
insurance companies began during the
morning what will undoubtedly be the
major portion of it's work in the in
Vestigation of the Northwestern Mu-
Eual Life Insurance company.
President H l.. Palmer of the COM
Dany was the first witness. The eX-
animation of Mr. Palmer was on the
subject of the organization of the COM
>pany, with reference to the election of
Its trustees and officials. Admissions
were made by Mr.. Palmer which
showed practically that the officers
and trustees Of the company were in
q position to control it's elections. In
was not a fact that the officers prac-
tically were able, through a proxy
system, to control the elections of the
company Mr. Palmer said that what
might be called administration tickets
were generally elected.
According to Mr.. Palmer the proxies
for policyholders are voted by bust
ness men of. the city of Milwaukee,
who are chosen some time prior to the
annual election at conference of Off
GERS and department clerks of the
company.

From the results of various expert
ments and observations at the Michi-

that, while nodules on the roots of SOW
beans and cowpeas on fairly fertile
soil may not noticeably increase the
yield, they may increase to an impor-
tant extent the relative and absolute
amounts Of nitrogen in the plants and
thus add to their value as green ma

sOlNT CONFERENCE OF ANTHRA-

LATTER SUBMIT AMENDED PROPOSAL
EMPLOYERS FIRM IN THEIR PO-

ARE SUSPENDED.

New York, April 13.-The joint con-
mine workers has adjourned sine die
without reaching an agreement and
negotiations practically have been
suspended.
The miners, at the days conference,
amended their original proposition so
that the agreement asked for may be
made with the anthracite mine work
ers instead of the United Mine Work
ers of America and also amended the
checkoff demand so that only those
men who are willing to contribute
shall be assessed in order to pay the
expenses of carrying out the agree
ment.
II the operators refuse to accept the
amended proposition of the miners
the wage workers propose that the
original proposition of the operators
to the effect that the award of the
strike commission be renewed for
three years and the amended propo-
the strike commission for arbitration.
Ii a. of the commissioners cannot
serve President Mitchell proposes that
President Roosevelt fill the vacancies.
Operators Stand by Proposal.
After the miners double counter
proposition was read President Baer
replied that he regretted that the
miners could not accept their PROPOSE
tons and added that they could not
modify them The operators, he said,
will answer the miners latest PROPOSE
tion by letter. The conference then
adjourned subject to the call of Pres
idents Baer and Mitchell.
President Truesdale of the Lacka-
wanna railroad was asked to explain
Chairman Baer's brief statement, He
said that it could be accepted as mean
ing that the operators stand absolutely
by their counter proposition submitted
on Tuesday. AS the situation stands
now Mr.. Truesdale thought it was not
too much to say that negotiations be.
tween the operators and the miners
had practically been suspended. The
operators will take up the miners lat
est proposition, however, and make
formal reply early in the coming week.

III. Jesus was tempted in his pass
ions. Milton describes the scene
from the hign mountain, the smooth
assumption that one to be a king is
to learn DIPLOMACY and the arts of
deception, to possess the Parthian
power, to remove Nero by an un
witnessed crime and give the world
better administration. How often
does Satan tempt those who have a
passion for power to think ssThe end
justifies the means.0 Any sort of
demagoguery may be used to win
'.Honors." Satan has tempted the
richest of our citizens through his
passion for wealth, till he has traded
his integrity for cash, and is ashamed
to go out where the people can see
him. Satan's assumption that it is
necessary to worship him, to use de-
ception, to be a fraud in order to sue
coed is all lie. Truth beats false
hood every day, and the DEVILS crowd
have to resort to all sorts of shams
to keep up appearances.
