TRADE WITH OUR NEW POSSESSIONS.

Agitation for free trade with the
Philippines gives interest to figures rel
alive to our trade with those islands.
Our trade with the Philippine islands
last year was about four times as great
as in the last year of Spanish control,
and approximately four times as great
as the average during the several years
prior to American occupation. Prior
to the year 1899 exports from the Unit
ed States to the Philippine Islands had
nexer exceeded a quarter of million
dollars. In the present year they will!
aggregate nearly million dollars. or
certainly twenty times as much as In
any year prior to American occupation.
Imports from The islands, which rang
ed between four and five million dol
lars per annu,n prior to 1899, were in
1902, 10 million dollars; in 1908, 12R
millions. and in 1905, will be about IA
millions, or about three times as much
as the average. prior to American occu-
patton.
This increase in trade with the is
lands is distributed thru a large num-
Der of articles, especially in the case Of
exports, whica have grown from $685.

occupation, to about 6 millions in 1905.

PROPOSED INSURANCE INVESTIGATION.

Iowa insurance companies are, IT is
stated in dispatches from the capital.
making desperate efforts to prevent
adoption by the legislature of the reso-
luton calling for complete investiga-
ton of the life insurance business con-
Quoted in this state. President Rawson
OF the Des Moines Life. in letter to AN
assemblyman, vigorously objects to the
proposed investigation. The leading OBJ
jections offered by Mr.. Rawson are:
Because Iowa has one of the most
thorough. honest and capable insurance
commissioners in the United States,
and SO recognized by insurance offl-
Gals Of other states; because during
1905 all but two Iowa life insurance
companies have been examined by
Auditor Carroll, who has made
number of excellent recommendations
which have been agreed to by the COM
panies; because he fears expense to
the Insurance companies; because, as
he alleges, the proposal to investigate
emanates from eastern insurance COM
panies; because an investigation would
be likely to demorsllise life insurance
business more or less, and because in
his opinion the investigation would be
4 reflection on Auditor Carroll.
Mr.. Rawson's reasons seem to him
H. ;e, s,,% 1,o inc,
ance business on the other side from
the policy holder and their views and
desires may naturally be more or less
diverse If the Iowa life insurance
companies are spctless, no better adj
vertisement of their integrity and solid
ity could be framed than the evidence
OF legislative committee to that eff
feet. An investigation would do Aud
itor Carroll no harm unless it revealed
noralize the insurance business to
some small extent for time, but this
decentralization would be repaid over
and over again BY the assurance that
New York conditions have no place in
Iowa insurance.
It may be that the life insurance
business in Iowa is above reproach. In
deed we trust so, but there is no more
reason why it should not be fully in
vestigated than that the condition of
bank of deposit should not be made pub
lie. Policy holders, since the revela-
lions of the affairs Of the greater COM
panies, are anxious to be assured. Per-
haps the condition of life insurance in
Iowa some few years ago ADDS to this
anxiety. Possibly those conditions
have something to do with the anxiety
of the companies to avoid investiga-
ton.
An investigation will do no harm.
Publicity is good thing for a good
company and in the present condition
of the public mind investigation of the
life insurance business in every state
in the union would have an excellent
effect upon business that has be-
come as much matter for state inves-
tigation and control as the banking
business.

LOGS BY RAIL.
rMuscatine Journal.1

ItJNTS ID NALL.
IMuscatine JournaLl
All last summer it was familiar
sight to see train loads of logs coming
into Muscatinc. The logs We're being
shipped from the northern forests and
We're consigned to the South Musca-
tine Lumber Company. An old mill
man makes the prophecy that more of
this kind of transportation will be in
vogue next year and that the mills
will he run from logs shipped on the
flat cars from northern forests instead
of being RATED down the Mississippi.
The South Muscatine Lumber Com
pany entered into a contract with the
Milwaukee to ship it's logs from the
northern pineries early in the year
and the logging contract is said to
have been the biggest ever entered in
to by railroad firm in the United
States.
1t is not only the biggest contract
as per tonnage, but is also the biggest
contract as per mileage. Over one
hundred fiat cars We're especially
equipped with skids and chains, sup
ports and tackle, to carry the logs
from the Wisconsin woods to the
South Muscatine Lumber Company.
Special equipment was put into this
service and all the spare ears from
the branch lines were duly impressed
for the service of logs to the company.
1t will be possible by reason of this
contract for the South Muscatine COM
pany to run it's mill from two to four
years longer than anticipated. Because
of it's connection with the c., NJ. q ST.
p. railway it is possible for the mill to
buy logs from the interior ports of the
state of Wisconsin, which heretofore
have been inaccessible. because they
could not be profitably delivered to a
waterway which would either touch
Muscatine or any river point.
But the c., NJ & st. p. is building
small branch lines into numerous small
forests of soft pine timber which still
abound in the north, and is offering
such Inducements to the Mississippi
river mills as to enable them to carry
on their business for many years more.
Ii is practically impossible for mills
along the Mississippi river to longer
obtain logs a any price. but this sys
tenn, which taps the lumber districts
will be able to overcome natures adj
vantages by delivering the logs di-
rectly to the saw mill over the steel
highways
No other road has even undertaken
the task of delivering over long dis
lance, the top-heavy laden cars such as
the milwaukee will haul for this COM
pany. In the future almost every road
tapping timber country will attempt
to compete with this line, but Musca-
tine can especially thank this compet-
ing road for giving US the first favor in
