PASS THE POTTS INSURANCE
BILL.

Rufus NJ. Potts. the able. honest
and efficient state superintendent OF
Insurance, is the author Of bill now
before the Legislature to reduce the
fire insurance rates In Illinois, there
by saving the people millions yearly.
and naming a committee on insurance.
The bill covers every feature Of the
fire insurance business including fire
prevention, the fixing OF rates and
the adjustment of differences. 1t even

OF the insurance companies from the
state because they don't like IT, Any
company which withdraws can not get
renewal OF license to do business
here for ten years, according to the
terms Of the bill.
The measure creates a states In.
surance commission, consisting OF the
superintendent OF insurance, the state
fire marshal and third member to
be named by the governor. The com.
mission Is empowered to fix all rates
charged by stock fire insurance com.
panies and to make a classification
OF all property OF the state for rating
purposes.
The property Is inspected and the
owner given a copy Of the reports
showing every element of the fire
hazard going to make up the rate. Any
citizen, board OF trade or municipal.
ity Is authorized to petition the
commission for q reduction In rates
or any insurance company has power
TO ask an order for an advance In
rates. The commission will conduct
hearing on such petitions, and Its
findings will be subject to appeal to
the Circuit court Of Sangamon county.

OF the court TO summon witnesses,
documents and administer oaths.

yisable.

business or to have policies sent 10
Joint stamping bureau.
In case the companies Of the state
withdraw from business here rather
than submit 10 the terms Of the bill
the state has power to create a stats
insurance fund and carry on the In
surance business itself,
Insurance companies shall CONF
within class OF other utilities and fur
nish insurance 20 all who apply un
less there is a substantial reason To-
refusing. They can not cancel poll
cies without good reason.

tablished by company shall be II

HE KNEW ABOUT THE TWINS

One day President Cleveland sent
for John Barrett. now director Of the
bureau of American republics. and
said:
Mr.. Barrett, I am looking for
some young man who Is not afraid Of

reputation for himself. to go as min.
lister to Siam, to settle the claim OF

the Constitution In such way that II

as the abolition Of tile system Of mi.

HATES l0Ne.TAllED COATS

Senator Norris Of Nebraska never
wears a long.tailed coat. lie hates
lonetailed coats. One day he was
asked why and he told this story:
When he attended college years
ago at Baldwin university. in Berea.
o.. Norris and little crowd Of stu.
dents one night conceived a merry
prank. On the college campus was q
towerlike building on which some re.
pairs were being made. A large
quantity Of old lumber was piled up
on the top Of the tower. The student
comedians thought II would be pretty
rich to shove this lumber right over
the edge and hear II hit the ground
below.
They crawIed into the building
through a window. Two or three OF
the students wore cutaway coats,
which were considered the snappy
thing for varsity men in those days.
but they got through the window all
right. and with their combined
strength were able to heaye over.
