Some editors are advancing
the idea that inasmucll as this
Government paid $500, 000,0 600 for
the Panama Canal, that it should
charge tolls. This same argu-
ment would require a. toll or tax
for all the harbors and rivers of
this country on which billions of
dollars have been spent.
Why don't these same editors
demand tolls for use of the great
Mississippi? Although the Gov
eminent has been improving its
rivers and harbors for a hundred
years, they have been absolutely
free to our commerce.
Charging American commerce
tolls for the use of American
waterways, would be about as

Judge M. A. Redwine sitting as

has decided the contest cases in
favor of the Democrats. By this
decision William Broaddus will
be given the office of Sheriff and
Horn the office of Jailer.
The vote in the Sheriffs race
was a tie and the Republican
candidate Powell won in the
drawing required by law. Broad
dus contested and won. The
other contests were by the de-
feated Republicans who lose their
cases by this decision. All the
cases will be appealed to the
Court of Appeals. If this last
Court adheres to its precedents in
the Pike county cases, it will hold
the elections void.

STAND PAT

The fight between the insurance
companies and the State of Ken
lucky is waxing warm. Nearly
all of the companies have with
drawn from the State, and are re
fusing to write insurance. The
Governor and the State Officers
have endeavored in vain to reach
an amicable adjustment of the
matter with them.
They should not daily with
them longer. They should at
once announce to the companies
that they intend to enforce the
law. The State has done moth
ing more than to undertake to
regulate the insurance business
in Kentucky. Nothing arbitrary
has been undertaken, and no un-
reasonable conditions have been
imposed.
1t looks very much like the in
surance companies have kicked
before they were pricked. We
have believed all the time that it
was a grandStand play on their
part to bulldose the State and to
prevent the State from regulating
insurance in Kentucky. Now is
a good time to have it out, and
if the Governor of Kentucky
yielaS to the opportunities of the
insurance companies, and calls
an extra session of the Legisla-
ture for the purpose of repeating
the law, he will weaken himself
very much with the people and
greatly lessen the power of the
State to exercise and control all
industries within its borders.
The insurance companies know
full we'll that the State cannot
confscate its property, and know
that if undertook to do so that
the United States Court would
afford it ample protection.
They have not tried to obey the
law, but have rushed pell-mell
out of the State. The State
should promptly call their bluff
and show them that when they
want to re-enter the State to do
that they can do so by |
submitting to regulation, and
that should be the only condi-
ton on which they should be
permitted to return.
The State of Kentucky is big
ger and stronger than any insur-
ance company and should assert
itself.
Since writing the above, the U.
S., Supreme Court has leld the
Kansas law regulating insurance
to be constitutional.
Come off your high perch oh
We mighty insurance trust!
