IDAHO WORST OF ALL.
Gigantic Land Fraud Said to Eclipse
Those in Oregon or Montana.

Livingston, Ida, March 14.-Hints
from Boise as to startling land
fraud disclosures at Lewiston tend to
confirm reports from authentic
sources that the government has for
a year considered the land frauds
in Idaho more gigantic than those
in either Oregon or Montana or
Washington and that It Is the inten-
tion of the government to sift thcm
to the bottom, bring guilty ones TO
trial and then bring re-entrance pro
ceedings, after conviction, to secure
re. possession of the lands fraudulent
" secured from the United States.
This latter step will mean great H.
nancial loss. perhaps absolute ruin,
to private individuals and banking +"
stitutions which are, or have been,
| It is asserted, directly or indirectly
connected with the handling or ow-
nership of lands said to have been
lfraudulently acquired.
II is known that the few indict'
ments secured at Moscow at the last
two terms of court are but begin
ming. There are, It is said, other in
uictments to follow, which, are to
bring into the pale of the law men
high in all walks of life, and whose
names so far have not even been
suggested.
It is asserted that evidence has
been secured, which, when presented
in court will prove astounding to
the general public.

CLEVElAND's WARNING.
ExPresident Sees Danger in Radical
INSURANCE leaislation.

''ob' awe 1t1lslaNlOts
Pres Cleveland has submitted to
the insurance Investigation commit.
tee of the Tennessee assembly, a
brief in opposition 90 what is known
as the 30 per cent bill now pend.
ing before that committee which re
quires that life insurance companies
Operating in Tennessee invest 20 per
cent OF their reserve fund on Tenn
essee policies in Tennessee securi-
It's.
MIR. Cleveland first calls attention
to the recent insurance disclosures
and says: These revelations make
II unnecessary to go to the length Of
Insisting that no corrective or rem.
edial legislation should be pressed.
What we desire to suggest however.
is that such legislation should be
directed to the pointf and placds
where the weakness exists, and
where conditions have been found to
palpably need correction.
1T seems to be quite apparent that
If the best legislative results are to
be reached by safeguarding all inter
surance and by subserving the peo-
pies interests in the premises by the
passage of a wholesome law, those
who make our laws should be free
from all vindictive feeling and mis-
leading prejudices and duly guarded
against disregard of safe and con
Iservative business rules
He calls attention to the fact that
the recent disclosures in the New
| York investigation. while exposing
practices Inconsistent with the du.
ties of trusteeship, by which trus-
tees personally benefited tnemselv-
es, exposed neither incompetency or
bad judgment as to the safety of the
securities, nor on the whole was 1t
shown that the estate of the compa-
MES had substantially suffered
Through ill-adviscd investments. In
view of this and the reforms and cor
rective methods which have resulted
from the Investigations and eXIDs
ures, 1t can hardly be said that the
Interference with the investment
branch of life insurance is just at
this time absolutely required as
tending to secure unquestioned sol
vency, so important to a large por
ltion of the people of our states.
I'VE cannot recapitulate the proof
of existence and activity in the anti
sentiment. 1t is not well for us tc
forget that though this sentiment
is an extinct one of the manifesto
tions Of restfuness and the reckless
impulse of our times, it is none th'
less dangerous and that 1t certainl!
