dent and health insurance, has grown
alarmingly This is due to the vague
indefinite and misleading character OF
these contracts. Standard forms
should be prescribed by Legislative
enactment, as in the case of fire in
surance and life insurance.
The state department of insurance
is not merely or primarily a record
ing office. The duties devolving upon
the commissioner of insurance are
highly technical, and call for an In
innate knowledge of the insurance
laws and at least a reasonable de-
gree of administrative ability. These
qualifications can be acquired, il at
all, only by experience. In this con-
nection attention is called to the fact
that in addition to the steadily in
creasing amount of work devolving
upon this office as a result of the
rapid growth of the insurance ISL
ness, the responsibility and labors of
the commissioner of insurance have
been UNNECESSARILY enlarged from the
fact that he has been charged with
supervision of the state hail insur-
ance fund, the fire marshal law and
the state bonding fund. 1t is true,
that the law creating the state bond
ing fund is not operative at present,
but it is likely to become effective
within a short time.
The state of North Dakota owes
me nothing. On the contrary I am
deeply indebted to the people of this
state; and in that spirit-in the de-
sire to give better service to our peo-
pie than it has been possible for me
to give in the past-my candidacy is
submitted.

Greenland Township Is
for Consolidated School

Marion Sentinel: AS the result of
a vote at special election held last
week, Thursday, Greenland township
is soon to enjoy all the benefits of a
consolidated school. The vote was
close, being II to 10. The district
comprises 30 sections, the east tier of
township belonging to Rosebud dis.
trict. =
We understand it is the intention of
the board to call for bids for four
room brick school house, with all mod
ern improvements, to cost about &c.,
900, which will be erected in the cen.
ter of the district. Three small one.
room school-houses now inadequately
accommodate the 10 school children
of the district, and the new consoli.
dated school will be a great boon to
scholars, teachers and parents.
Greenland township has the largest
number of children of school age Of
any township in the county where no
city or village is located. Ten years
ago it had the smallest number, with
one school and five months term of
school,
Greenland township people are pro-
gressive in everything, and we are
glad to see them adopt this new and
progressive idea in education. 1t will
give their children an opportunity to
take up the higher courses of study,
usually found only in city schools, and
the central school will be more pleas
ant, more sanitary and more efficient
than half-dozen one-room houses
could ever be.

Former Valley City
Man Seeks Election
for Another Tern,

Bismarck, April 12.-W. G.. Taylor
today formally announced his candi-
dacy for reelection to the Office of
commissioner of insurance, as follows
To the Republican Electors of the
State of North Dakota: l am can
didate for the Office of commissioner
OF insurance. l am now serving my
third term in that office, and my
candidacy is submitted on the ground
of efficient service, faithful attention
to duty, and a desire to further as
sist in placing the entire structure of
insurance on a more substantial ba-
Sis in this state. The program I
have in mind calls Tor the enactmer
of complete and harmonious insur-
ance code, to take the place of the
h0dge-podge Of laws, many of them
more or less contradictory, which
have been enacted from time to time
since statehood.
The state should have supervision
OF insurance rates as we'll as of the
insurance companies authorized to
transact business therein. This ap-
plies with special force to fire insur-
2nce rates, but l believe it should
also be extended to provide regulation
at rates charged by surety companies
! Insurance is public necessity, no
Less than railroad, telegraph and tele-
phone systems. Even more intimate
~ than any Of these utilities it en-
ters into the very wool and warp Of
our social and industrial fabric. 1t
was in recognition of this fact that
1he United States supreme court re-
gently said that "the business of fire
Insurance is so far affected with a
1nheie interest as to justify legisla-
tive regulation of it's rates." If re-
elected l shall renew the efforts which

Life insurance is written either on
what is known as the legal reserve
basis" or the assessment PLAN" So
far as assessment life insurance is
concerned, I believe it's writing should
be confined exclusively to fraternal
benefit societies, and on adequate
rates. There would not seem to be
any legitimate reason or demand for
assessment life associations, and this
state might we'll follow the example

Valley City Man Getting
Ready to Pick Out Farm

Theodore A. Olstad, the Main street
barber who was one of the winners
in the Fort Berthold land drawing, is
making preparations to be on hand
when his number is called just after
May 1.
Filing on the lands will begin May
1. On the first two days there will be
so applications received. After that
time 100 applications will be received
each day until 1000 names have been
called After that time there will be
$50 names called until either the num-
Der of claims or the list of names is
exhausted.
The person whose name is called
at the land Office in the federal build
ing in Minot must be present at
that time to proceed with his inspec-
ton of the lands and to otherwise
comply with the requirements of max
ing payment and filing for the same.
Any person who does not comply
with the regulations when he is called
loses all his rights and becomes the
same so far as filing is concerned as
the one who has never filed, so Mr..
Olstad is not going to take any
chances.
When the list of draWees is exhaust
ed, if the claims are not all taken,
they will be thrown open for settle
ment under the general provision Of
the land laws of the United States.
