OTHER STATES CAN HELP.
There is Good Ground for Assisting the
Unfortunate in San Francisco.

Late dispatches show that it
is clearly the intent of the great
insurance companies to scale
their policy holders out of their
money. The contemplate sub
terfuge OF claiming that they are
not responsible for earthquake
damages should mark them as
gra eless thieves.
The state OF California is invok-
ing the power OF their insurance
department to compel payment.
They declare that no company
that scales its policies can ever
again do business in California,
Following their lead the Nevada
insurance department declares
that all companies that evade
payment of their California losses
will be shut out OF Nevada.
The move is most excellent
OuC. uSiS 10 nv liidN
these companies are unable to
pay. Their constant talk is that
they are amply safe from distress
by reason of their enormous re-
serve piled up tor the past fifty
years. Therefore any attempt to
evade payment must be charged
to their desire to make money
out of unfortunate peoples dis
tress. There is no reason why
other states should not follow
Nevada's lead. Why should not
all those companies who repu-
diate or scale their California
losses he prohibited from doing
business in Colorado as we'll?
How can we show more practical
charity tor the California losers,
and at the same time relieve this
state OF these robbers: Should a
dozen states take such a step
these big cormorants would fall
over one another to pay up.
A number of companies have
withdrawn from the association
that was trying to dodge and
announce that they will pay in
full. These companies should
be encouraged and no better way
can be found than to refuse
license to those who evade a part
or all of their losses. This will
! send a volume OF good business
to the solid and honest COM
panies.
a very much closer supervi, ion
OF FIRE insurance companies should
I be had all over the country.
Such disasters as the San Fran
cisco horror bring their villanies
to light but there are thousands
of cases every year where the
wrong is just as evident but does
not become public. Then the
poor devil who is skinned takes
his medicine and the company
absorbs its profits.
1t would be very we'll indeed if
Colorado shuts out of this state
all companies who do not pay
| California losses in full.

THE RIGHT OF APPEAL.

The attorney general OF the United
States, Mr.. Moody, has earnestly re-
Quested congress to enact Iegislat ton
that will permit he government to ap
tinctly provided that nc verdict of ae-
quittal shall be set aside. Mr.. Moodv
speaks Of ruling made by a United
States district judge to the effect that
a law forbidding a common carrier to
discriminate against an emp;oye be-
cause he belonged to labor union is
unconstitutional
He says: at is mcnstrous that such
a law, which has received the assent Of
the senate, the house of representatives,
and the president. can be nullified by
the opinion of a single man, not SUBJ
ject to review by the court of appeals
and the supreme court" This happened
because the proceeding was a criminal
one instance of many.
Nobody seriously contends that any
right now possessed by defendant IN
d criminal proceeding should be abro-
gated or destroyed There is in the plea
for. the new law no suggestion that it
Should be made possible 10 twice
jeopardize the liberty of citizen for
the same offense. All that is wanted is
to give the government the right TO ap-
peal on technical points, IN order that
there may be final ruling by the SUI
preme court of the nation on these
points.
For example, an indictment is care
fully drawn by a United States district
attorney. or by designated special eoun-
sci. The attorneys for the defendant go
into eourt and pick flaws With the In
dictment. as they have an undoubted
right to do The court sustains the de-
murrer and the indictment is quashei.
The result is that the defendant walks
out of court a free man. The govern
ment wants the right OF appeal in such
cases. not for the purpose Of restoring
the Indictment in that particular case,
but for guidance I'm future similar cases
Had the court, in the example cited,
decided against the defendant. his at
torneys could, and doubtless would have
appealed at the earliest possible mo-
ment. They could have gone straight
up tc the supreme court and there Sc
cured final decision. That right
should be given TO the government.

A ADMINISTRATIVE LAW.

In ruling made by the new secre-
tary Of commerce and labor. Mr.. Straus.
the contract labor law. which was sup
posed to be ironclad, has been deniol-
ished in one sweep and the whole south
thrown open to the importation OF allen
laborers, assisted by the payment OF
their passage and a guarantee OF en-
ployment on arrival
The ruling was made on a case from
South Carolina, IN which the state,
through its immigration department,
sent agents abroad to invite immigra-
ton. When the first shipment OF
newcomers arrived q question was
raised as TO the application of the allen
labor law under the provisions of
which laborer may be deported who
comes under contract OF employment.
The department holds, in effect, that a
private corporation may lot do; that
the states may invite and assist i'm
migration as they please. guarantee the
immigrant employment on arrival and
provide assurance of homes OF any
other inducement.
Under this ruling the intent OF the
law passed by congress and approved
by the president is absolutely nulIified:
and as an administrative act 1t is diff
ficult to get the ruling into courts for
construction. In other words, the SIM
pie act of q government enploye, cabi-
net officer though ne be, is sufficient
to override law of the United States.
The result OF this ruling. unless it is
sbrogated by the courts, is to open the
gates wide for immigrants in any num-
Der, and of such class as tine states
may see fit to invite. And if individual
employers of labor or corporations seek
ing supplies of men weld enough in
fluence, they can evade the contract
labor law by the simple expedient OF
having the state do their work for
them.
The principal movers In this new plan
are the cotton mill operatives of the
south, the same factories that have
made a national scandal by then
wholesale employment of child labor.
They find negro labor unreliable ana
white labor is not TO be had in large
numbers. Northern operatives will not
go to the south because or wages ant
labor conditions. In their extremity
the manufacturers have organized the
state immigration bureaus and now the
way is clear for an influx of cheap la
Dor In some sections of the south this
new policy is likely to be profitable to
the whole country because il may bring

velop the country AMI build up class

New Adjustment Called For.


If the Wisconsin legislature adopts
the suggestions of Insurance Commits
Sioner Host, which were approved at
the conference of representatives of
fraternal orders with the state insur-
ance investigating committee at Mil
waukee, it will take a pioneer step in
the adjustment of evils which MEM
bers of the order know to exist, but
which it has been learned cannot be
cured through the voluntary action OF
the orders on account of the disincllna-
ton of the members to raise their
rates until compelled to. 1t is posi-
BILE that the committee will recommend
to the governor and the legislature
the adoption of an experience table
whose minimum rate must be used as
a guide by all organizations writing
fraternal insurance. The privilege will
be given to omit an assessment when
ever the total reserve warrants such
step. By this method it is believed
present low rate associations can main
tain their low average If their losses
continue as low factor. All orders
are to be given a specified term of
years, possibly four or five, in which
to make the change, by which time
they must have arranged for the adop-
ton OF the experience table designated
by the legislature as the standard of
Wisconsin.

Manv New Lines of Study.

The announcement by the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin of new lines of
study for next year includes six
courses in physiology and physiology
cal chemistry by Professor-elect JOS
eph Erlanger; four courses for Slavic
philology by DR.. Edouard Prokosch,
including historical and comparative
grammar of the BaltO-Slavic Ian
guages, and the study of modern Rus
sian; four courses by Professor-elect
Edward A. Ross, on sociology, social
psychology and charities and correc-
tions; courses preparatory to the
study of medicine under DR.. G. r..
Bardeen. Among the departments the
work of which has been developed
during the past year are education,
romance, language, anatomy and bio
logy. The new catalogue offers an in
teresting contrast with the first one
issued by the university during the
administration of Chancellor J. H. La
throp. The first catalogue consisted
of 18 pages; the faculty numbered IL
professors and instructors, and there
were 100 students enrolled. The uni
versity at that time consisted of two
departments, medicine and science
and literature and arts.

Gives Advice to Bankers.

Bankers live too much within
themselves and therefore are less use
full to the communities in which they
operate than they might be- de-
clared William H. Banks, president OF
the Wisconsin Bankers association,
in his address to the twelfth annual
convention of the organization at Mil
waukee. Continuing, Mr.. Banks as
serted that the time for the narrow
man had passed and that travel was
the remedy. Bankers as well as
others should mix with the world and
learn new IDEAS" he insisted. or the
$50 banks in the state, $3.50, it. was
shown, belong to the association. f..
]. Carr, of Hudson, read paper on
taxation, in which he asserted that
banks are not assessed uniformly in
different parts of the state, and that
all were assessed higher than other
property. A resolution was adopted
authorizing the appointment of com
mittee of three, to be known as the
committee on bank taxation, which
will cooperate with the legislative
committee Other addresses were
made by Mayor Becker and l.. J. Petit,
president of the Wisconsin National
bank.
