THE INSURANCE ELECTIONS
Trustees Are to Be Chosen for Two
Great Companies,


New York, Dec. 19.-Probably never
before in the history Of the country
has there been anything to compare
with the election In this city Tuesday
Of trustees for the New York Life and
Mutual Life Insurance companies. In
number Of ballots cast and In the ex.
penditure Of time and money, the
election approached that Of one Of the
states OF the union. Certainly no cor
poration or society election ever meas,
ured up to 1t in magnitude Of interest.
The total vote cast In both COM
panies will approximate 100000 OF
which about 100000 will be In the New
York life, In which the contest has
been more vigorously and more bit
terly waged. 1t is expected that 1t
will be some weeks BEFORE the votes
are counted and the results of the
campaign known.
The Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety, the Mutual Reserve Life Insur-
ance company and the Security Mu-
tual Of Binghamton also held elections
Tuesday but as there were no oDpo'
sition tickets in the field in these com
panies the elections of their admins.
tration tickets were but perfunctory
proceedings. .a

As to Senator smoot, he SAID II
made no difference whether he was
or was not a polygamist.
"Smoot," he said, represents the
church and not the state, and would
do the bidding Of the church before
he would serve the real interests of
the state or Of the nation"
Turning his attention to the cam
paign preceding the recent election.
Mr.. Dubois read the press dispatches
Of October %, which stated that the
president had sent Secretary Taft in
Idaho to speak In advocacy Of law and
order. At that time Mr.. Dubois said.
he had tclegraphed the president that
the only issue in Idaho was the desire
Of the Mormon hierarchy to continue
to dominate the politics Of the state
and that the president had been mis-
led IL he thought there was any other
issue. The state platform, he said,
was absolutely silent regarding law
and order, and Notwithstanding the
democratic platform had denounced
the murder Of Governor steunenburg
and demanded the conviction Of the
guilty party, none Of the democratic
speakers had debated any subject save
that Of Mormonlsm, hence there was
no other issue In the Idaho campaign

Washington. Dec. 14.-President
Roosevelt was directly charged In
the senate Thursday with using his
influence for the election Of republic
can Mormon candidates in Idaho
and Utah. The charge was made by
Senator Dubois in the course Of
speech in which he discussed the
right Of Reed Smoot to seat in the
senate. The address was of consid-
cradle length, the first portion be-
ing devoted to review Of the Nor
mon church. Mr.. Dubois asserted
that polygamous marriages were still
being contracted, although surrepti-
tiously, and that an aristocracy Of
polygamists was being built up by
the church officials, who now ar
range and select these polygamous
marriages. But no record Of poly
Samous marriages is kept which is
available for the American people.
Because Of this, he pointed out the
futility Of passing national law pro-
hibiting the practice.

Investigation Of Coal FAMINE In the
Northwest Causes Great Change
In Situation.
CONDITIONS ARE CRITICAL
Only Fair Weather Can Prevent
Great Suffering and Loss Of Life
state Legislatures May Take
Matters Up.

Minneapolis, Mimi. Dec. 1S.-kn-
vestigation Of the present fuel famine
crisis In the Northwest may not stou
with the investigation Of the inter
state commerce commission now on in
Minneapolis. 1t is probable that In
every affected state, but notably Min
nesota, North Dakota, Montana, the
subject will be made a matter for
legislative investigation. Northwes.
tern coal dealers have indicated to
the large shippers here that they plan
to stir up an official investigation In
their states. Towns that are suffer.
ing ing now or have been held in the
grip of winter and the famine are lay.
ing their cases before the legislators
and are asking that the subject be
brought up at the coming sessions OF
the state legislatures, and action taken
to prevent a repetition.
The race Is on between the rail-
roads and the cold. II the weather
wins, cutting down the efficiency of
motive power and bringing on heav
billiards, there will be suffering and
loss Of life. But reports Monday in
dictate that the railroads are rushing
fuel into the districts where Their
either an actual want or stocks are
low. The Great Northern Is taking
no full carloads west Of Grand Forks
other than fuel. The Northern Pa
cific has sent out 800 cars Of fuel f.
commercial use in the last two days.
At the storage docks at the head Of
the lakes, the dock companies are Or
dered to load as far as possible f.
commercial use.
According to the Great NORTH"
flcials the coal shortage at Great Nor.
thern points in North Dakota will be
thing Of the past in a very few days.
From Minot, N. D., reports say that
In some portions Of the county farm
ers are tearing up their fences and
using them for fuel.
Grand Forks, N. D., Dec. 18.-The
fuel situation Monday presented the
most critical condition that has ex-
listed In the history of the state.
Careful inquiry in every portion Of
the northern half OF the state shows
that there Is not q town in which
coal can be had except in small
quantities and to supply Immediate
needs and in dozens Of places there
10 not q pound to be bought, the
dealers having been out Of fuel for
days and In some instances for |
q week or more. In some towns |
schools and lighting and manufactur-
ing plants have closed and individ-
uals are sharing their small fuel sup
plies with neighbors.
Linton, N. D., Dec. 1S.-No bitum-
nous coal, nor Ignite has been re-
ceived here for weeks. There is
plenty Of Ignite at Bismark but 1t
cannot be gotten here. There Is
some anthracite coal here but 1t can

Arizona republican., 1906-03-07
A Matter of General Concern.

There is a hope that for the good of the valley, and of Phoenix as well as of themselves, the farmers of the Ari- zona canal who have not vet done so. may subscribe to the canal extension.
 The work. it is true will be done anyhow, and the water will be brought down for the seasons crops; that is for the crops of those farmers who have thrown themselves into the en- terorise.
 If this was an unusual expenditure, might appear to be, the farmers might hesitate to make it. But it is not un- usual. It is not any more burdensome than the annual payment for irrigating water would be. It is, after all, only payment for irrigating water-an ex- penditure which the farmers would have been glad to undertake any time within the last ten years. Tke nice thing about the. expenditure in ques- ton is that it will bring water. Pre- vious ones did not always do so much.
 If there was any other way to get water and raise crops this summer the farmers might be justified in with holding their assistance, but there is no other way.
 It is not too late to come in but the time will soon be over. Every acre of land under the Arizona canal that has been cultivated in recent years should be made a beneficiary of the improve ment which is now being pushed as rapidly as possible.
 This is matter which as we have said concerns all who are concerned in the welfare of the valley.
Arizona republican., 1906-03-07

Senator Hale yesterday voiced an opinion quite generally entertained, when he intimated that the general staff was encouraging the invasion of China. Inquiry has been made from various quarters concerning the req sons for this unwonted naval and military activity against China. There has been no official reply but jour nals and magazines which have under taken the task of defending every administrative act have describ- ed the duty of the government to de- fend its citizens abroad. There have been. it is true. recent disorders in China in which foreigners suffered. There have been disorders in the Un- tied States in which Chinamen suffer- ed MT. Rockhin has lately informed the Washington government that the Chinese disturbances are local and that they are no more frequent or vio- lent than they have always been. The most recent one, that at Nanchang, grew out of a lawsuit in which a relig- iOus misslen- H'as admittedly to- blame
Arizona republican., 1906-03-07

Those who, according to a Repubn- can special dispatch from Washing ton this morning, are suggesting the removal of Governor Kibbey as an ob- stacle to joint statehood are of as narrow caliber as they must suppose the president to be if he would enter tain such a suggestion. The governor and Attorney General Clark are, it is true, against joint statehood. But in the meantime they are attending to their official duties which do not in volve active opposition to any pro- gram of the presidents with respect to the territory. There has been no opportunity for either of them to offer any obstruction. That stage mas not yet arrived. When the proper time comes they will probably do what every other good Arizonian will do then. If their patriotism should be made the cause of their removal by the president the joint statehood scheme would at once become more hateful than ever. They would thereby be made by the president Instructions indeed.
