GAMBLERS PERCENTAGE

The forty-three leading life in
Surance companies operating in
the United States paid out in the
year 1905 the sum of $l45, $685.
759, the meanwhile collecting
$484, 4O3, 585 in premiums, the
difference. amounting to $780,
047, 1926, representing the princely
tribute that the public pays to a
bery of gamblers upon their lives
for doing what prudence requires
that they should do for themselves
and those whu come after them.
That magnificent sum represents
the raid on the larders of the needy
people to fill the maws of the
cormorants of finance. And still
we all buy life insurance. There
is little wonder that an army of
oily-tonp ued gentlemen can work
on a half and half basis in an
effort to induce the public to fall
for their mathematical mistakes.
Some day without doubt the
government will engage in the
insurance business. 1t ought to
be done now. There is no idea of
pateraalism involved in it. And

able to yield it, through appeals

man is capable.

TIE management of Nevada's

TIE management of Nevada's
state prison is too big a job to be
supervised by a n "ex-officio" board
of elective officers. The first
thing the next legislature should
do, is to place the entire responsi.
bility for the prison upon board
selected with some regard for
fitness and their knowledge Of
prison affairs. In most states the
responsibility for the selection of
such a board is vested in the gov
ernor, out if. under existing con-
ditions, the legislature should
deem this impracticable, then this
responsibility should be placed
upon the supreme court or in some
other responsible quarter. The
management of the Nevada pris on
has been a disturbing factor in Ne
vada affairs much too long. 1t is
an open fostering sore upon the
body politic as noxious and
offensive as it is costly.-Goldfeld
