4 FEW QUESTIONS ARE
SUBMITTED TO Mr.. MILLS

Waxahachie, Tex. July II. 1915.
Referring to MIR. Larry Mills
published article about the Robert
son Law and the Gibson Bill, beg
to state that I am not an agent for
Il Texas life insurance company, nor
9 stakeholder in one. and beg to ask
MIR. Mills the following questions:
1. Is it not fair and Just that
foreign life insurance companies
Going business in Texas should in
vest IS per cent Of the reserves of
their Texas policy holders in Texas.
when they invest loo per cent of
the reserves in all foreign countries?
II this is moi fair, why not2
2. Is it not a fact that the re-
serve OF Texas policy holders be-
longs TO them, and foreign insur-
ance companies hold same as trust
fund for them? If this is true, why
should not 70 per cent of this mon
ey belonging 10 Texas people be in
vested in Texas. as ii has TO be m
vested some place?
3. II forty foreign insurance COM
panies are doing business here now
under the Robertson Law. why can
not the big Eastern insurance COM
panies composing the money trust OF
the United States also do business in
Texas

the paid lobbyist of the big Eastern
insurance companies, and Abe
Gross. Jake VOTERS, Yancey Cum
mings and others2 Why was this

5. Under Article 1870. Revised

surance companies. wanting the
Robertson Law repealed. lend theis

OF the Robertson Law by the Leg
islature of Texas. it attempted to
make foreign insurance companies
loan money in Texas whether they
wanted to or not, and as result
these companies have refused TO do
business in Texas. and the field has
companies and the home companies
to write insurance at higher rate
than is charged by the companies in
other states, and TO charge the peo-
pie OF Texas higher rate of inter-
est than is charged by the conf

dollars have been loaned in the
state Of Oklahoma for six per cent
interest, while the same companies
charge the people OF Texas seven
and one-iialf and eight per cent in

the reason for this is that they are

complicated with one of the ailments
of the heart. Mr.. Eve had been con-
fined to his bed since the day before
Christmas, but he had taken an active
interest in his business all the time and
only short time before death came
to relieve him of his sufferings he had
been planning to get up and go about
his work again. A little over a year
ago he underwent an operation in a
Racine hospital and one of his legs
was amputated and since that time he
had been in feeble health. His death
marks the passing of one of the most
interesting characters among the Ger
mans of Kenosha and few men in Ke-
nosha were more widely known among
the people from the Fatherland.o
Frederick Carl Louis Eve was born
in Meunster, Germany, March %, 1855.
Twenty-Five years ago he came to
America and settled in Philadelphia
where for a number of years he engag-
ed in the printing trade. Then he re-
moved Co Freeport, Ill, where he was
III the same business until thirteen
years ago when he came to Kenosha
and purchased the Kenosha Volksfreud
from George Giegold. Since that time
Mr.. Eve had given all of his time to
the publication of the Kenosha paper.
He was man of strong likes and dis
likes and he expressed these through
the columns of his paper and the per-
sonality which he put into the paper
added lot to the spice of its columns.
In Germany Mr.. Eve served as
soldier in the Germany army during
the war with France in 1870 and 1871.
Since coming to Kenosha he had been
one of the most active leaders in the
ranks of the German Veterans Asso-
citation and he had done much to adj
vance the cause of this organization
in the state. He was one of the ac-
tive members of the German Alliance
of Wisconsin and was one of the most
virile writer's on pro-German subjects.
He was democrat in politics and
had been active in the ranks of the
party in Kenosha, his paper always be-
ing strong in it's support of the demo
cratic nominees, both in Kenosha and
in the state and nation.
It is announced that the publication
of the Volksfreund will be continued
by Miss Title Holmes, who for the past
two years has been the most active in
the management of the paper.

ELKs OFF TO GREEN BAY.
Thirty Members of Kenosha Lodge to
Take Part in Elks Bowling Tourney.

Headed by Exalted Ruler R. K. Dorr
and Past District Deputy Grand Ex-
allied Ruler John M. Kehlor, thirty
members of the Kenosha Lodge of
Elks left his morning for Green Bay
to take part in the annual Elks state
bowling tournament. The entire Of.
fetal family of the Kenosha lodge ac-
companied the delegation and the Ke-
nosha official team will be the first to
roll for Kenosha in the big state meet.
The Kenosha bunch took with them a
lot Of literature in regard to Kenosha
and it's bowling alleys and this will be
used to promote Kenosha as the place
for the holding of the tournament of
1916. Many cities in the state have
already declared for Kenosha as the
place for the next state tourney and it
is pretty certain that the directors will
take formal action to this end on Mon
day. The invitation of Kenosha de-
livered by all of its officers is going to
be most cordial one. The bowlers
will return home Monday or Tuesday.
