MR.. BRYAN AND KING EDWARD.

1t is considered of significant politi-
cal interest in tbs country that Mr.
BRYAN discarded his comfortable
SLOUGH hat and sack coat in London
and adopted a silk tile and flowing
Tucked garment The significance,
however. probably attaches mostly to
those Americans who having never
seen any country but the one In
which they were born, have never
conformed to the usages of other COM
munities in the matter of dress. Mr.
Rrvan understood the value of the
silk hat as a concession to the peo-
nile he was trying to interview, just as
he felt it his duty to wear the cork
| helmet in India. Perhaps, too, ne hao
heard that Turkish gentleman OF
linguistic and otherwise scholarly at
tainments had in vain applied 1or
work in New York because he wore
a turban. Many of those to whom ne
maze MS appear IiiouSHe nv ~
for museum keepers.
1t is reported also that Mr.. Bryan
wore smallclothes and toy sword
when he called upon the king. 1t was
mistake about the smallclothes. Mr..
| Bryan just rolled up his trousers TO
the knee, and as for the sword ne
found a good substitute in a Nebras-
ka corn knife, which he stuck in his
ammunition belt. The king was very
much amused at the invention Oh
Americans and remarked that he could
not see how such fertile nina as
Mr. Rrvan's could have failed to win
| the presidency.

system should have brought about
reduction of rates on property IN this
city. as fire protection will be mucn
improved with the stronger pressure
and larger supply of water.
The pretext for the raise IN rates
on the Pacific coast was the san
Francisco disaster, which proved the
heaviest tax that the fire insurance
companies have ever been called upon
to meet. However, the companies Tor
wears have been collecting high rates
from their policyholders with the I'M
Outstanding that large reserve was
being maintained to meet just such
emergencies as that caused by the
San Francisco conflagration. instead
of making use of that reserve, the
|comDanies are now calling upon their
patrons to make good the losses 1or
which the high rates charged in the
mast should have made adequate pro-
vision. Inere is SOOu SIouilu III 'iiN
suspicion that instead of accumulat-
ing a reserve fund to meet such losses
the head officials of the fire insurance
companies have practised the same
methods of enriching themselves with
trust funds that have been exposed In
the investigation of the big life lnsur-
ance companies. An Armstrong COM
mittee in San Francisco or New York
should now investigate the conduct OF
fire insurance companies that the
people NAV learn what has become of
the reserve funds supposed to be held
in trust for the protection of policy
holders against great disasters like
the Chicago fire or the San Francisco
catastrophe.
Walla Walla property owners with
their improved means of fighting fire
have especial reason for protesting
against the increase in rates of 1nsur-
ance and they should call upon the
state Insurance commissioner to take
vigorous measures to bring the 1nsur-
ance companies to reasonable terms.

from being a failure resulted in great
w improved service and reduced rates.
Had the city of Glasgow turned
back it's telephone service to private
company there might be color to the
claim that public ownership had failed,
but inasmuch as it merely sold its
rights to another publicly owned tel
ephone system, whose field was
larger and whose chances of success
were greater in the same line in which
the city was working, there appears
to be no basis except in prejudice Tor
such a claim.
