trimming. There is a lovely fancy

Wisconsin Liquor raffic.

/ Wisconsin Liquor Traffic.
In concluding his elaborate com
ment on the liquor trains III WIS
conSin and the United States, j. u.
Beck, state commissioner Of labor and
industrial statistics, in part thlr1 OF
the twelfth biennial report of the de-
partment for l905-06 says; 1t IS eNl-
dent that the liquor traffic is abou. as
deeply rooted and important busl-
ness in Wisconsin as it is elsewhere
IL the United States" The commits
siouer says: In the United States out
| of a total of 25,630 persons convicted
of crime, who were interviewed IN
gathering these statistics, "A, ,45I, or 90
| per cent. We're addicted to the use OF
| liquor. OF this total number convicted
of crime, less than one per cent. used
| wine only, II per cent. malt liquor
| only, and rs per cent. used two or mora
| only three per cent. distilled liquor
kinds of liquor. Out Of 1896 cases OF
| insanity examined GIL, or 81 per cent,
were addicted to the use of liquor, and
| one half this number is classed as eX-
! of the 1876 cases of insanity were
| caused directly by the use of liquors.
| OF the poverty which comes under the
| observation of charity organizations,
| % per cent. is directly due to the use
of liquor. The per capita consumption
of alcoholic liquors in the United
| States has increased from 1-5 gallons
in 1S40 to about 20 gallons in 1903
| This enormous increase is mainly at
| tributed to the ever increasing demand
| for malt liquors, which contains
small per cent. of alcohol as compared
with an equal amount of distilled IL
| quor. In the same period the use of
malt liquors has increased from | 1-3
| gallons to over IS gallons per capita,
and the average annual consumption o.
distilled liquors has decreased from 2h
gallons in 1910 to IL gallons per capt.
ia in 1909. Out of 11S cities in Wiscon-
sin 1l3 have licenses, of 204 villages
1873 have licenses, and OF the 094
towns 500 have licenses. Five cities,
| 16 villages and 376 towns voted no IL
cense.' The remaining towns and vii
| lagos have no license because no ap-
| plicatiOn for license was made 1t
would appear from the report that a
majority of about II per cent. of the
population of the state are against Ii
cense, that when saloons are located
according to industry of the people
nearly every manufacturing center in
the state has saloons, and that every
, nO-licensed town, city or village is not
a manufacturing center. with possibly
! two exceptions" The commissioner
says that the value of all properly
! employed in the liquor traffic, 3oth
owned and rented, is about s33 800 COO,
of which S26,300000 is in real estate
and the remainder in fixtures and sun
4 dries The tctal tax paid by the liquor
! traffic in the state is about S59i,t00
The total number Of persons in the
state dependent on the liquor traffic
for a. livelihood is $4,000. The total
annual revenue from the manufacture

ponden. Madison.

Madison.-The state insurance de-
parUment believes that some firms and
banks operating in Wisconsin are as
Sstins unlicensed insurance companies
to do business in Tie state. They are
doing this by collecting premiums for
such insurance companies and in trans
mitting policies from the companies to
persons TO whom they are issued. 1t is
believed that some OF the firms and
banks performing this service are un-
conscious that they are violating the
laws of the state. Thomas Nj. Purtell,
deputy insurance commissioner, sent
letters to all of the banks of the state
calling their attention to the statutes
covering this matter. Discussing the
matter Deputy Purtell said: "On March
=, 1903, the Mutual Reserve Life lnsur-
ance company of New York withdrew
from Wisconsin, having | APP policies
in force in this state; on January l,
1906, the Washington Life withdrew
having l,431 policies in force; on
March |. 1905, the Northwestern Ma
tional Life of Minneapolis withdrew,
having 6,754 policies in force, and on
February rs, 1906. the Provident Say
ines Life of New York withdrew, hay
ing 5S7 policies in force. These COM
panies are taking from the people OF
this state over 100000 annually are
paying no taxes or tees to the state,
and as they do not come under the SUI
pervision of the department of insur-
unCe, the department is unable to give
protection to the policyholders, if such
protection is at times needed. We oc-
casionally receive complaints against
some of these companies; this led
Commissioner Host to believe their
policyholders are no, at all times being
fairly treated, and before leaving for
Columbus, Ga, he ;old me to send a
letter to the cashiers Of the various
banks, calling their attention to the
law which provides a fine of from 500
to $500 to be paid by any person who
aids in any manner in the transaction
of business for an insurance company,
whether in soliciting insurance or col
lecting premiums or assessments. A
strict enforcement Of this law would
compel companies to comply with the
laws of this state, and by so doing
their policyholders would receive the
protection Of the state"
