The habit of treating those
who are nearest and dearest to
US with discourtesy is one that
clouds the sunshine of too many
homes. If you are young and
looking for your prince, just test
his home conduct. Do not be
guided in your choice by what a
man is in your parlor; find out
what he is in his mothers sitting

way he can tip his hat, but by
the way he treats the old, espec-

Judge Stevens
Poor Memory
lOurny Plaindealer.l


Judge Theron Stevens, former
ly Judge of this district and later
of Goldfield, Nevada, was called
as a witness for the defense in
the Moyer-Haywood case at Boise
and testified, according to the
dispatches, that there was no
trouble at Telluride until Govern
or Peabody sent the state troops
in there. The judges memory
must be very short if he has for
gotten all the trouble which ex-
listed at and around Telluride be-
fore the troops were sent in, and
we dare say the Telluride people
and the Journal over there could
refresh it for him to a startling
degree. This writer was in New
York at the time but has a hazy
sort Of recollection of non-union
miners being deported before
troops were sent in; of Arthur
Collins, superintendent of the
Smuggler Union mine, being
murdered before troops were sent
in; of Smith and Barney being
mysteriously made away with
before troops were sent in; and
of the miners taking the Smugg-
ler mine by force Of arms before
troops were sent in, Nobody
fought Peabody and Bell harder
than this writer did, through the
columns of Plaindealer and other
state papers, because Of their
unlawful acts in deportation and
other high handed measures, but
we never condoned similar acts
on the part of the miners, who
were equally unlawful, and any,
body whose memory is worth a
picyune can remember that there
was trouble of the very worst
kind before the soldiers came, as
we'll as after, and Judge Stevens

The present insurance depart

ever with fraternal companies.
The departments energies have
been directed almost entirely
against old line companies.
The first thing Mr.. Rittenhouse
did was to compel old line COM
panies to pay back license on
agents amounting to several
thousand dollars. There was a
tremendous howl and the COM
missioner was berated and cussed
to a finish, but he never flinched
and the result of it all was that
the companies paid what they
should have been compelled to

tions of that Office.

Colorado S Insurance
Commissioner

We would call the attention of
all Woodmen of the World to the
long articles now being published
comprising letters of advice from
the eminent blatherskite, E. E.
Rittenhouse, state insurance
commissioner. For many years
the old line insurance companies
have striven to put Woodmen in
surance under the care of the
state department. Their object
was to then manipulate the de-
partment and to destroy the Or
ganization as an insurance body.
Unless the last legislature gave
them the required legislation,
they are still without power to
do a thing to fraternal insurance.
But in reading Mr.. Rittenhouse's
article we feel as if it might be
we'll for members of the order to
look up what they did in the last
session. He acts as if he could
exercise some power and if so
the end of fraternal insurance in
this state is in sight. We note
that Head Consul Boak also gives
a trifle of attention to the state
department, and this indicates
that they now have some added
powers. It will truly be unfor-
tunate if this order built on such
grand lines and carrying on a
work of such magnitude, is de-
stroyed by the insurance octo-
pus. They never had so mobile
fool in the Office of insurance
commissioner as Rittenhouse,
and it is safe to assume that they
will rapidly put into effect any
plans they may have against fra
ternities. -Paonia News paper.
The Independent cannot under
stand the Newspapers motive in
referring to the present insur-
ance commissioner as it has in
the above article. The editor
must have some grudge against
Rittenhouse or is woefully ignor-
ant of the splendid administra-
ton he has given to his Office.
Mr.. Rittenhouse has made the
best insurance commissioner Col
orado has had for years and the
insurance men of Colorado will
tell the Newspaper editor that
this is true if he will take the
pains to ask them. The INDE-
PENDENT is also quite confident
that fraternal insurance men will
be as free in commencing the ad-
ministration Of Mr.. Rittenhouse
as are representatives of old line
companies. The popularity of
the present commissioner is not
due to any leinency he has shown
to insurance companies, for he
has been after them with a sharp
stick almost from the very mo-
ment he took charge of the Office,
but to a recognition of the fact,
that in eliminating fraud, in the
enforcement of the laws as he
found them and in securing the
enactment of a new law which
gives protection to the good there
is in insurance and makes it pos
sible to keep the bad out of this
state, he has served we'll the
cause of insurance of all kinds
