the opinion of every insurance COM
pany and every shareholder of an in
surance company. The various COM
panies will be asked to ascertain the
opinions of their individual share and
policyholders on the proposed change
of control. Then he proposes to pre-
sent this information to Congress and
ask for resolution submitting to the
various State legislatures the text of
the roposed amendment. If all the
States approve the amendment there
can be no further objection, he points
out.
Mr.. Kingsley contends that the
adoption of such an amendment
would be of great vital Importance
to the policy holders as well as to
the insurance companies, because 1t
would make cheaper insurance and
cheaper rates. The annual savings
to the insurance companies in the
United States would be $4,000. 900. he
figures, If the amendment were
adopted. In addition there would be
savings in other ways, for the insur-
ance companies would not have to
be continually hiring attorneys to
appear before the State Legislature.

islation.
One Form of Regulation.
He says there would be one form of
regulation instead of forty-eight; one
form ofypolicy instead of many, and
only one system of handling insur-
ance. He says:
IF the policy-holders are in favor
of it the next step will be to lay the
proposal before Congress. The names
of the contract-holders favoring fed
eral supervision Will be classified ac-
eording to States, and If need be, ac-
cording to congressional districts, so
that every representative In Congress
and every senator can analyze the
sentiment in favor of the measure.
THE saving to the insurance COM
panies would be tremendous. At pres

ton the alleged infraetion of the rules
occurred.
Mr.. Fordyce declared that William

been working at the penitentiary for
more than a year without having

Freebooter Richard F. Malta.
chairman of the prison. committee,
explained that the freeholders at the
time of Mirzwiek's appointment had
no idea that Mr. Booths Illness was
going to be prolonged. II was the
understanding at the time that the
eiVile service had no eligible list Of
assistant engineers. he said. and on
that account the committee requested
local union to send their best man
to work at the penitentiary.
Mr.. Malta then made a motion that
civil service had no eligible list oi
the Civil Service Commission be re-
quested to furnish an eligible list
from which to select an assistant en-
gineer to take Mirzwick's place. The
motion was carried. The position
pays salary of 800 month.

proved.

vestigate the need of a pump was re
ferred to the director, chairman ano
county engineer to report back. The
chairman was authorized TO procure a
fifteen-ton scale for weighing crushed
stone at the quarry.
Recalling that the freeholders had
obtained valuable information and ex.
perience in its trip last year to the
annual convention of the American
Prisons Association, Chairman Mat
Tia recommended that Warden Ferdf-
nand J. Hosp and as many of the

STATE LOSES
IN EXPRESS TAN CASES-LAW
HELD TO BE UNCONSTI-
TUTIONAL.

Sioux Falls, May In a sweep
ing decision just handed down by
Judge Sanborn in the United States
circuit court of appeals, South Da-
kota loses the express tax cases, de-
cided in favor of the state by Judge
Eiliott about a year ago and the law
under which the taxes were assessed
am the method of assessment are
declared unconstitutional. The cases
involved about $50, 600 and the state
is enjoined from collecting this
amount and must accept the nomin-
al tax of about $4,000 on the actual
property owned by the companies in
the state. The actions were brought
by the Wells Fargo ana the American
Express companies.
Whether or not the state will ap-
peal to the supreme court has not
been decided upon yet. Attorney
General Johnson stated hat he was
not prepared to announce what ac-
ton the state would take, as he had
| not yet received a copy of the deci-
sion.
The court declares that the law
under which the taxes of the express
companies were levied is unconsti-
tutional as the constitution of South
Dakota only permits assessments on
| the value of property in cash and
| that a tax on gross earnings would
therefore be Illegal. 1t states that
the law of the state and the meth
DDS of the board of equalization
practically place the assessments of
express companies on a gross earn
ings basis as the taxation body is in
structed to take into consideration
the gross earnings of the companies.
This was construed to be constitu.
tional under an early decision of the
state supreme court but the appel
late court holds that the supreme
court did not pass directly on the
point and only implied the constitu
tionality of such a law in deciding
another point.
q. o. Bailey, attorney for the eX
press companies, declared last nigh
that the decision was far-reachinl
and that railroad and telegraph com
panies as well as express companie
were affected. 1.-THE decision of TIL
court" he said, makes assessment
on actual property within the STATE
the only method of taxation and thu
gross earnings of the companies can
noI be taken into consideration. Al
understand it. railroads and tele
graph companies will be affected b!
the decision. 1t is a great victory foi
the express companies"

THE BREAK,

From the u. S. ship the other day
A party of our sailors did convey
A paymaster who on an errand went
On the land that with strife is rent.
He walked the streets of the Federel
town,
Thought to trample with utter dis
dain
The national laws that he should
maintain.
He seized this sailor from American
ship
And locked him up to prevent a slip.
Fhe American Admiral, Mayo, his
name,
Held the Mexican general to blame.
He straightway asked an apology
humble
And the erring officer from honor to
tumble.
The Federal chief did the sailor re-
lease,
and thought thereby the U. s. to APP
pease.
But officer Mayo, insisted on a prop
er salute,
Huerta failing in this, he threatened
to shoot.
We waited in vain, for the Mexican
chief
40 accede to our demands and give
us relief.
So the American sailors and soldiers
in blue
Quickly captured the city of Vera
Cruz.
The Americans now are lessened by
eleven
Whose noble souls have departed for
Heaven.
