The Last Wild Pigeon.

According TO the Audubon Society, The
last wild pigeon in this country died in
the Geological Gardens at Cincinnati on
September lSt. Within the memory OF
men now living, vast ilocks Of these birds
actually darkened the skies during their
migratory flights. Unrestricted killing BY
guns, snares and traps wiped them out.
This should carry its own warning TO
those who are fighting The enforcement
of the Federal law for the protection OF
migratory birds. What happened 10 the
Wild pigeon might we'll happen to The
quail, the partridge, the wild duck and
other game birds already growing fewer
and the countless song birds and insect
eaters. This would be poor country if
that were permitted to happen.

the House which provide that no insurance comgany shall be per mitted to use the mails for or effecting policy eff insurance upon persons or property sit uated in any state by it's own laws prohibits the company from transacting the insurance busi- ness in that state. The Postal life endeavors to reduce the cost of life insurance. by doing all it's business from one head quarters and without agents. It has been in business for a num- Der of years and is successful; as a corporation of New York it is regularly examined and has been gwen a certificate of good standing by the insurance de- partment of that state.
 Every session of Congress brings forth a lot of bills which bring up the old doctrine of states rights, and thls is one of them. If the Postal Life was open to any criticism on tho part of the federal government, then the Postoffice Department would have checked it's progress long years ago.
 The singularly significant thing about thls legislation is that only one company is affect ed by the numerous bills that have appeared almost simultane- ously in Congress, but if it is true that through the use of ad- vertising space and the United States mails this company has built it's business to a big sue cess. then there is no more req son why it should be restricted  by local state laws. than by acts of common councils and county boards. With all the restric- tions being placed upon lnsu- rance companies has come the demand that United States Con- gress provide for federal control and regulation of insurance busl- ness throughout the United States as a practical solution of the problems that have been exciting legislatures and state insurance departments in recent years.

THE COLONEL AND THE
 TREATIES

When Colonel Roosevelt came to Washington two years ago and appeared before the commit tee Investigating campaign ex- penses, he turned the plans of Congressman topsy-turvy. With this recollection in mind. the Senate Foreign Relations Con- mittee is not particularly anxi- ous to have the Colonel appear before it to tell what he knows and thinks about the pending treaties proposing to pay Colom- bia $25. 900, 900 for the partition of Panama. The Colombian treaty promises to become a great political issue. because it not only carries the suggestion to repudiate the acts of the Roosevelt administration with re- ference to the independence of the Republic of Panama, but 1t opens wide the question of con- tinuing tbe policy of secret ses- sions of the committees of the Senate in considering treaties. Those Senators who have been making a fight for public hear ings lupon all questions declare that there is no more interesting matter before the American peo- pie than surrounds the affairs of the Colombian and Nicaraguan treaties. Although the Republ- jeans always maintained this policy when they were in power, they are now practically unani- nous in criticizing the Demo- crats for holding executive ses- sions.

THE NEW THOUGHT IN LIFE
 INSURANCE

Evidently hostile interests are becoming very much distressed by the success of the Postal Life Insurance Company of New York, since they are attempting to check it's onward course by legislative enactment. There has been a pet theory for a good many years that nobody would take life insurance unless solicit ed by an agent. The Postal Life has plenty of resources and owns one of the big down. town build ings of New York City. The men who organized it believe in printers ink, and have backed their judgment by placing their advertising throughout the coun- try. The result is that they have been forging ahead rapidly in fact. they have made such progress as the only non-agency company in America" that the old line insurance companies have decided to try to put the innovation out of business. and therefore bills have been intro duced in both the Senate and

 Dr. Christian shows that % per cent of all the human beings born into the world die before they are one year old per cent more die before their fifth birthday. and more than half of the human race race die before they are twenty-five.

Colonel Roosevelt is new com ing in for commendation because he admitted that during the great coal strike of 1902 he was prepared to send Federal troops into Pennsylvania with orders to seize the anthracite coal and operate the mines. Instructions, it is stated. were actually issued to General Schofeld that he Twas not to pay attention to any court orders or any other authority than me-" As there are still many things which the colonel actually did or did not do left to criticise, what's the use of be- ginning on those things which he merely intended to do?
