STATE INSURANCE THE BEST

Duluth Labor World: The best ar
gument we have seen for state insur-
ance comes from the office Of the State
Insurance commissioner of Minnesota.
In a report just issued Insurance Com
missioner Works shows that employers
liability companies made profit of
1882, 6O271 from the time the Work
ingmen's Compensation act went into
effect October l, 1913, to December 81
1915, a period of 81 months.
The following from the St. Cloud
Daily Times gives an accurate picture
of the chief evil that still remains in
workingmen g compensation:
"Casualty companies doing business
in Minnesota, in 1915, collected prem
iums on workmen' 8 compensation in
surance Of $1,146, 76446, and paid
premiums collected in 1914 Of $1,222,-
1892, and losses paid Of $470, 243.93.
'The Workmen's Compensation Act
took effect October l, 1913, and be-
tween October l and December 81,
1913, casualty companies collected
premiums in Minnesota, on account OF
workmen' g compensation insurance of
$481, 697.17, and paid losses of $780,
8O5.l7.
"The total premiums collected on
workmen 3 compensation insurance in
Minnesota, from October l, 1913, to
December 81, 1915, amount: to $3.50
[814.85, and the losses paid during the
same period amount to $1,01S,212.l4.
And thus, in two years and three
months, the casualty companies made
a profit in this state Of $685., 602.71.
Time to reduce rates.
: But the st. Cloud Daily Times does
not 60 far, enough. So long as claim
agent for an insurance company stands
between an injured man and his en-
ployer in the settlement Of claims ex-
act Justice will never be given under
workingmen g compensation.
Minnesota employers should not seek
reduction in rates. They are now
paying less money than was paid un-
der Employers Liability. If they
choose to assist in performing real SER
vice to the state they will join with
labor in a movement to abolish all ca
sualty companies and to establish in
their place a state insurance fund to
properly andb adequately compensate
every employe injured at mis- occupa-
ton.
The remarkable sum Of $1,S32, 602.71
which went into the pockets Of the in
surance companies as the net proceeds
from workingmen's compensation
premiums, under state insurance,
would serve to give every injured man
a square deal, which he is not now
getting under workingmen 8 compensa-
ton as it obtains in Minnesota.
Under the state insurance plan every
dollar paid by the employer for in
surance would find us way into the
pockets of the injured workingmen. No
private companies would profit from
the crushed bones and mangled bodies
of Minnesota's workingmen.
Holdingford Advertiser: We notice
that the primary election law seems to
bother the bosses great deal and
they are. raising a howl to have it re.
pealed. If they ever attempt repeal
they will stir up a hornets nest they

Mankato Review: Jesse James died
a violent death while at the height Of
ms criminal career. His ally in crime,
Cole Younger, spent many years in
prison, finally to be paroled and a
few days ago died repentant man.
There are those that believe that death
is the only proper penalty for. such
crimes as those that the Younger and
James brothers committed, but some
low the prolonged punishment of Cole
Y ounger seems to us to convey more
impressive lesson of the folly and
fruitlessness of criminal career than
did the quick and summary punish
ment visited on his associate in sin.

Miss Upton laughed deliciously.

then you'd have a mechanic and not q

walked slowly back to the hot little
camp in the canyon at the base Of the

for the tin cups, settled his visitors as
