SAYS LAW NULLIFIES
MAIL ORDER POLICIES

Willard Done. acting insurance COM
missioner, has determined TO put a
stop TO the practice OF some OF the
outside fire insurance companies which
are doing business in this state with
out complying with the laws. These
companies. Mr. Done states. maintain
that as they are doing business in the
state only through the malls. they are
not subject to the state laws.
Mr.. Done, however. calls attention
to section 81. chapter 12l. state laws
OF Utah, which provides that IL shall
be unlawful for any person. company
OF corporation In this state, either
TO procure. receive or forward applica-
tions for insurance In, OF or for any
company or companies not having been
legally authorized to do business IN
tho state. The penalty for q violn-
ton of this law is fine of 500 or
two months In the county Jail. or
both.
The insurance commissioner may,
however. Issue a license TO any reg
ularly licensed flre insurance agent Il
this state. subject to revocation at
any time, permitting the person nam
ed therein TO procure policies OF la
surancc on risks located in the state
for companies not authorized to trans
act business in the state. and for
such license. the law says, the com
missioner shall collect fee Of $50.
The law on this matter concludes
by saying that all policies and insur.
ance contracts issued without full
compliance by all parties concerned,
with the laws of the state are null
and void.

It is the theory of the police that the man entered the house while the family were at supper and concealed himself in closet.
 Miss Dow said she locked the win dows and doors about o'clock and the police found all the locks turned and windows latched Marks found on tha side of the house under a sheltered window led to the belief that he entered in this manner. Footprints plainly visible in the soft earth after his es- cape showed that he ran as an ath- lete runs on the ball of his feet. The women are sure that only two shots were fired. Miss Blackstone and Miss Dow were teachers in the Jefferson Avenue school. Miss Black stone was s9 years old and Miss Dow about st years old.

TRIAL IS BEGUN OF
 CELEBRATED CASE

Halifax, N. C., March 31.-Attracting wide attention throughout the state, ow- ing to the prominence of the persons con cerned, the trial of E. E. Powell, a mer- chant charged with the murder of Police Officer Charles w. Dunn, at Scotland Neck, March f. began here today. In the affray Powell also shot and seriously wounded State Senator F. l.. Travis and | Assembyman A Paul Kitchin, brother of Governor Kitchin, and Congressman Kitchin.
 The tragedy took place on the main street of Scotland Neck. Powell passed Travis and Kitchin and in doing so asked Travis why the latter had not answered certian letter. Almost immediately Powell turned around and opened fire. Officer Dunn, who was sitting near by, was struck in the back and fatally wounded. The other two men were se- riously hurt. Powell barricaded himself in his home and threatened to shoot any one who attempted to arrest him. He was finally captured and, as feeling ran high. he was removed to Raleigh for safekeeping.
 The cause of the shooting. it is alleged was the failure of Senator Travis to an swer a letter in connection with a case in which Powell's son was involved. At least 100 witnesses are in attendance The trial, 1t is predicted, will be exceptionally hard fought.
 Powell declares that his mind was a perfect blank at the time the fatal shots were fired.
 When the trial began there was long argument consuming the entire morn ing session, brought about by the defense moving for a postponement of the case. This move was strongly opposed. The lawyer for the defense indicated the plea that Powell was now insane and entered motion to have him placed in an asy- lum for life.
 After the opening statements were f1n- ished the afternoon session was resumed in an attempt to secure a jury.
 When court took recess this afternoon eight jurors had been selected Another special venire of % men was ordered.
 If is expected that the jury will be completed by noon tomorrow

Washington, March 31.-President Taft in an address before the Ohio society of Washington tonight pointed out that the dominating power of the eastern states in Congress lies in the fact that they keep men in office when they place them there
 He contrasted the influence of the east in legislative affairs with that of the west, and that of the south. and at tributed the supremacy of the former to the continuous service of legislative representatives.
 "Why is it. asked the President, that the smaller states of the east exercise so much power in Congress? It is not because an eastern man has any more capacity in the matter of legislation than a southern or western man-certainly not more than an Ohio man. It is because the eastern states get a. good representa- tive and keep him as long as he lives and then he has an influence that vastly tion of population.
 T do not know whether this is quite germane to the subject of this occasion, but it occurred to me to say this because I feel as though we are all interested in having Ohio well represented and in having Ohio make herself felt in the leg islation of this country by adopting a system that will certainly bring about the weight she is entitled to without per petuating one man."
 When the President had concluded Senator Dick, who was on the platform. grasped his hand and shook it vigorously.
 The senator, whose term expires with this Congress and who has a hard fight ahead for reelection, said something to

 The. President was the guest of honor at the meeting called for the purpose of organizing an Ohio society in Washing ton Justice William R. Day presided and subsequently, was elected president of tine society.
 President Taft congratulated Ohio on it's high place fin the nation and upon the influence of its people who had scat tered throughout the country. He said he had not come to talk politics, but added that he did want to say one thing Of a political nature and that was there was only one thing he wanted to say about Ohio. The tinge of politics in Ohio has made mistake in failing to continue as our representatives the same people, term after term when they are worthy wholesome candidates asking for return and lengthening of service in the House and Senate which gives influence, said the President.
 Rotation in office. which may satisfy the different commonweaths, has its other side of becoming obnoxious which in the end is ultimately decided by the suffrage of the voter exercising hls rights. said the President, and 1 am In favor of continuing the representation as we have it so those inside may be the foremost in the councils of the na- ton.

PROTESTS AGAINST
 THE LEE STATUE

Washington. March 31.-(Special)-P Pro- tests against the Lee statue in the capitol are coming into Congress.
 Massachusetts has sent in a long list. storm of them rained down on the Sem ate from the Bay State. Senator Lodge presented 40 of them at one time. All were from Grand Army of the Republic posts of his state.
 Intense bitterness marks some of the protests. Through practically all of them run objections to the Confederate uni form being in the capitol General Lees statue in Stautary Hall represents him in the uniform Of Confederate general.
 Some of the protests characterized Lee as a deserter from the United States army. Others refer to him as a traitor" :"
 "A studied and direct insult to every living ex-union solder and sailor and doubly so to the memory of those who gave their lives that the union might be saved" is the way one of the protests runs.
 A Confederate Memorial institute for which about 900 has been raised, will be built at Richmond. Va. two acres of ground of the Soldiers home of that city having been donated. The decision was reached by the trustees tonight after Captain Hickey and other members Of the committee returned from Richmond.
