COULD NOT PAY LOSSES
So Merchants Mutual Went Into
Hands of Receiver.

The Merchants Mutual Fire Insur-
ance company. a local corporation
with offices in the Mulvane building,
was placed in the hands of a receiver
at noon today when a suit was filled
in the district court by one of the
policy holders. Chas. H. Trap.
Chas. F. Spencer was appointed re-
ceiver.
The petition shows $4,S50 unpaid
losses That the aSSeSSm entS on the
stockholders have not been sufficient
to cover losses is evident. A failure
to get business enough to supply
premiums in an amount to meet
liabilities may be the direct cause
rather than the fault of computations
upon which the insurance and rates
are based
At any rate the directors and
stockholders have been cognizant of
the affairs of the company and en-
tered bankruptcy voluntarily with the
probability that the company will be
permanently dissolved.

PINCH0T STANDS PAT.
Will Not Alter His Policy and He Will
Not Resign.

| Washington, Oct. with a full de-
termination to continue without the
| slightest modification of his policies re-
| garding the conservation of the ma
tons natural resources and the ma
] tional. forests Clifford Pinchot, CHIEF
forester of the government. returned
here today after two months inspec-
ton of practically all the national
| forest reserves.
In speaking of the conservation ques-
ton, Mr.. Pinchot declared that the peo-
pie of the country, especially of the
west were now awake as never before
| to that problem. President Taft, he
! said, had defined his position regarding
| conservation and there could now be nc
possible doubt that he is strongly COM
mitted to that policy.
Mr. Pinchot stated most emphatically
that he had come back here to pursue
his conservation and forestry policies
just as he had carried them on In the
past Mr. Pinchot declared that the
national forests were never in better
condition; that the district plan of or
ganization was in admirable shape, ana
the personnel on a higher standard
than ever before. Public sentiment, he
declared, was very rapidly getting to be
unanimous in favor of the forest ser
vice work, and he added that Secretary
Wilson's trip through the west recently
had done an immense amount OF good
Nothing for Publication.
Mr. Pinchot declined to say anything
for publication regarding the socalled
controversy between himself and Sec
rotary Ballinger over conservation
policies, but stated emphatically that
he would not resign.
Pointing out that there was a water
power trust in process of formation,
Mr.. Pinchot declared that it was one of
the biggest questions which could be
put for action at this session of con-
gress, adding that I'VE have got to do
something about the matter. or else
lose out"
He said that the tendency to consol1-
dation which was now going on in all
industrial enterprises necessarily in the
end would lead to the merging together
of the water power interests exactly as
it had in the steel and oil interests:
When asked if it were possible to head
off this proposed trust, Mr.. Pfnchot ex-
pressed the view that 1--WE can prob
ably not prevent the combine, but we
can control it,"
The question of the lands in the west
and in Alaska, Mr.. Pinchot stated
would be another important matter
with which congress would have to
deal. Mr.. Pinchot will remain here a
few days and then meet President Taft
and accompany him down the Missis-
sippi river as far as New Orleans.

cial systems along the line of individ

cial systems along the line of individ-
ualism.
Attorney Graham in his arguments
already prepared for the closing speech
asserts: ''In union only is strength,
that union which can concentrate to a
sirgle object and purpose, to a single
point, and this cannot occur where the
power is diffused to the multitude; 1t
never did occur; it never car occur.
Too much concentration. Is also bad,
and perhaps little worse than not
enough; but wolves on the one hand
there always will be, and sheep on the
other. Between these extreme condi-
tons we require the shepherd the rep
resentative of the conservatism and the
individualism for which we contend"
Expectations are that a large attend
aEce will be present to hear the debate
which is given for charitable purposes.

 There are l20 patients here now and, most all of them are doing fine, and in from six to nine months, will return to their loved ones with the disease arrested, if not completely cured.

 They have just completed the two colonies of sixty tents each Each colony has utility building connect ed with all the tents with electric wires. Simply touch button when you need a nurse, or help of any kind, and they immediately respond.
 They intend to build 60 more tents as fast as possible, which will make lSO. Then they have about 90 double tents for the use of the help about the place.
 This will be quite city when it is completed They expect to build H. O0O tents just as fast as they can.
 If all the members of the Modern Woodmen of America in the entire jurisdiction could only realize what q grand movement this is, and what the NJ. w. of A. is doing for suffering hu- manity here there would be no trou- ble to raise the money to make this place large enough to take care of all Neighbors suffering with that dread disease, tuberculosis.
