No wonder the governor is getting
Legislature If. that body carries out
the party's pledges TO the people it Will
have to sDur up considerably. There
are OnlyNa few more days for it to be
in session and there are some import
ant measures to be acted pon-soIn
of them the chief ones which the party
has pledged to enact in order to give
the people relief. The bills against
trusts and discrimination and excessive
freight rate charges are the most i'm
pOrtant ones yet to be passed. The pas
senger rate bill is still hanging fire: but
we suppose the conference committees
report will be adopted by the two
houses, making a fiat ate of two and a
quarter cents a mile for roads over
sixty miles in length: but it would not
be OF much consequence We're that
measure to fail entirely. The people
are much more interested in the rcgl;-
lation of the freight business. That is
where their pOcketbOoks are more
heavily 'touched''. There is more SEN
timent than material advantage IN the
passenger rate question, 2 and that
sentiment is chiefly confined to the
class of politicians who think they can
make themselves solid with the people
by reducing the fare; but if they fail
to grant the really needed relief on the
discrimination and high freight rate
problems they will find they have cot
accomplished so much after all with
the people by reducing passenger fares.
Reducing straight fares by the amount |
proposed wont benefit one out of ten !
citizens of the state to the extent OF a !
dollar a year.
There are several other measures |
which should be enacted before adjourn |
ment. 1t is dangerous to put such mat
ters off until near the end of the SCs-
sion. Too much of the session up TO
the present time has beer taken up ia
speech making and playing to the gal
leries. We hope the balance Of the
will be devoted to business;
that the orators will give way to the

HITS INSURANCE ACTS.

dent Grover Cleveland, counsel for the
Association of Life Insurance Presidents,
has just submitted to that ASSOCIATION
brief in relation to the matter of salaries
paid by life insurance companies. The
occasion for its presentation, 1t is stated,
is the fact that certain western states
have now pending before ther respective
Legislatures bills that would limit the
salaries of life insurance officers TO SJO,-
900 year, while in others the limit Is
fixed at $4,000 a year

After calling attention to the fact that
insurance companies are private corpor-
atoms, Mr.. Cleveland says:
Whether these companies are classcd rs
stock corporations or mutual corporations
in either case their business interests are
confined to contract relationships based
upon the expectation Of utc ana Othcf In
cId2uts attaching exclusively to the lndlNld-
ual policy holders In each corporation. 1t
has been judicially determined, beyond the
reach of controversy, that in legal contenp-

are concerned, they are on the same footing
