The Two Codes,

louisville Courier-Journal I am
willing to 90 on record" said the pub.
Usher of an insurance journal before a
congressional committee q day or two
ago, that even the $1,000,000 which was
spent by President Mccall under the
auspices OF Andy Hamilton, was just
liable. And say further, it has not
only saved millions Of dollars to the
policyholders of the company, but mill
ions to the policyholders of other
companies.'
About the same time this statement
was made by Max Cohen in Washington,
another, far different IN tone, was spoken
in New York. ''There is no reason why
the life insurance companies should be
banded together" said Chas. E. Hughes
lin systematic effort to control large
part of the Legislation OF this or any
other state. There is no reason why ef-
forts should be made by political contri-
buttons or by purchase of those who are
supposed to have influence in political
affairs to safeguard the interest OF policy
holders. If the legislature insists upon
passing laws that are inimical to the life
insurance company, let the unjust re-
suits be disclosed. The observation of
the working Of an unjust law will do
more to procure its repeal than any
amount of effort can properly do in the
direction in which it has hitherto been
expended.
Here are two codes, each having the
same object-iegislation. Which do
you subscribe to, the Cohen code of
graft, or the Hughes code of legitimacy
aud honesty.

THE MUCK-RAKER,

Now that the term "muck rak or" has
been banded about until it Is worn
nearly theradbare, what is YOUR idea of
it? Is it term OF reproach and con-
tumely, or is 1t a tribute to the civic
activity of the individuals 30 labeled?
Does it indicate that they are doing
something unlovely and discreditable,
or that they are performing task that
ls necessary, though unpleasant? Very
likely opinions on this point will differ i.
The victim of exposure will beyond
doubt hasten in with his opinion that
there is hardly any term more to be
despised thon "muck-raker." But the
plain, honest citizen, who has done moth.
ing to be exposed for. and who has.
therefore, no reason arising from per-
sonal prejudice for hating the muck
raker. will probably agree that certain
amount of undertaking is good.
1t all depends upon whether the man
to whom the term is applied earned it by
raking muck for muck's sake, or whether
he got it by fearlessly exposing the evils
that he found, in order that an awak-
ened public might wipe them out.
It must be remembered, however, that
the president when he started the
"muck-rake" discussion took a slightly
incorrect view of the original muck
raker, the man in Bunyan's "Pilgrim's
Progress" who was 80 engrossed in his
probing in the mlre that he refused to
look at brighter things above. The
muck that that muck-raker raksd in was
money. He was so engrossed in his
accumulation of money that he had no
time or thought for anything higher and
better. And the subjects OF latterday
undertaking, IN most cases, have been
men so engrossed in the slime of un.
scrupulous money-getting that they hav Q
refused to look at the beautiful heights
of honest, sane and wholesome living
far above them.
The existence of social, economic and
political evils in this and other .coun-
tries is undeniable. Their Importance
is not great enough to warrant pess-
imism, but they stand in the way Of pro-
gress, and they must be moved before
civilization can approach anything like
Utopian conditions. The man that takes
up one Of these evils and meroilessly
exposes it does much 10 bring abontsit
