BY Negotiating Paper Taken

Confusion Is use d
Which Is Embarrassing.

The life insurance companies who
are doing business in the state OF Idaho
will hereafter instruct their agents to
cease the practice of taking and nego-
tiating notes in settlement of first
premiums on policies written before
the risks have been accepted and the
policy delivered, or their agents will
have their licenses revoked.
state Insurance Commissioner w. r.
Hyatt has formally issued notices of
having adopted an order to this eff
feet 1t is found that the practice
proves embarrassing to many appli-
cants for policies, especially If the
home company refuses to accept the
risk. often irresponsible agents, upon
making out a policy, accept note in
payment, Immediately convert the note
into cash or otherwise negotiate it,
following which the risk is refused,
and there is difficulty in getting back
the note. Often the agent has left the
country before a final settlement is
reached. The insurance commission
er classes the practice as bad and de-
cares that he proposes to stop it in
The future. He issued the following
statement:
Whereas the attention of this de-
partment has a number of times been
called to the fact that some agents,
writing life insurance in the state of
idaho, have followed the practice of
negotiating the notes taken in settle
ment of first premiums on life insur
ance policies before the risks had
been accepted and the policy deliver
ed, a practice, believed by this de-
partment to be not in keeping with
good business methods. You will
therefore please take notice that I have
this day made an order to the follow
ing effect:
All notes taken in settlement OF the
first premiums on life insurance poll
cies written in Idaho, shall not be ne
gotiated by the payee or his or their
assigns previous to the policy for
which said note or notes are given as
the premiums thereon, shall have been
delivered to and accepted by the as
sured.
Any agent or company violating the
provisions of this order shall be liable
20 the penalty of having his or its
license revoked.

American at Base Hospital
in France Tells of His Elk

Idaho Troops.

Members of the Second Idaho regi-
ment who will be somewhere" in
France within a comparatively short
time will read with interest parts of a
letter written by Henry ]. Wallbrunn
former resident of Chillicothe, Mo-,
copies Of which have ben placed in the
possession of Governor Alexander.
Chillicothe was the chief executives
former home. Mr.. Wallbrunn is a cou-
sin of Robert Wallbaunn, now with the
Alexander store owned by the COVER
nor at Baker, Ore. In this letter the
writer tells of being quartered very
comfortably in a. convent 600 years
old. The writer says in part:
"+ I am somewhere in France,
but we are not permitted to say where
it is or the name of the town in which
we are quartered. l am enjoying my
experience very much. / have seen
and done things that l never thought
of doing before. For instance, for two
nights l slept on cobblestones in
COW barn in an English rest camp.
Things like that seem a little hard
at the time, but / am glad of the ex-
perience now. At present we are quar-
tered in an old convent, said to have
been built some 500 years ago. We
have beds and sleep fine. The con-
vent, like most of the other buildings,
is surrounded by bigh wall with
broken wine bottles cemented on the
top to keep any one from climbing over
the wall.

in France, and least of all did l ex-

the general opinion among those here
that the end Of the war is not far dis

They are the greatest people I have
ever seen and will sacrifice anything
for their country Americans are
demigods to them. Our unit was one
of the very first to arrive in France.
We got great reception, three nights
in succession. We were entertained
the first night by wounded French
soldiers: the second night at a movie
show as guests of the management
and the third night at a musical given
by the French people.

Police JUDGE HAS.
NO JURISDICTION

Public, but Not Violation
of Prohibition Laws.

Assistant Attorney General ]. p.
Pope has handed down an opinion de-
filming the duties of a police Judge in
the matter of enforcing the anti liquor
laws. The opinion was given in re-
Spouse to two queries from George E.
Mabey. sheriff Of Bannock county.
The first query Of that official was
in substance as follows:
What Jurisdiction does the police
court of a city have over cases in
volving violation Of the liquor laws?
The assistant attorney general holds
that city magistrate or police judge
has no Jurisdiction over felonies or
indictable misdemeanors, therefore he
is without power in violation Of the
law in the matter of the sale, trans
portation, receipt or possession of in.
toxicating liquors for they are indict.

able misdemeanors. Under appropriate
ordinance he may hear and determine
cases involving drunkenness or drink
ing in public places.
The second query was: What dis
position should be made of liquor COM
ing into possession Of the police de-
partment through arrests for violation
of the liquor laws?
The assistant attorney general holds
that if the defendant is held to the
district court the police Judge must
hold the intoxicating liquors subject
to the order OF the district court. If
there Is not sufficient evidence to hold
the defendant or if the owner of the
liquor cannot be discovered, then the

THE PARTY OF Discomfort.

Obstructionists in congress are
having a vision Of a national party
OF discomfort.
Those who know the itch of ambi-
ton that possesses Senator La
Toilette. know that he does not seek
a. crown OF martyrdom for any idea
or cause. He requires a more sub
stantial recompense. and his eyes
have been glued on the presidential
chair since his first rise to local
popularity and fame in Wisconsin.
The Peoples Council of America
which win hold a meeting In Min
neapoIis next month. is a part OF
a comprehensive political scheme, 1t
is TO enlist the pacifists under the
organized banner OF the Little Giant.
Such party Is resigned to unite
the Socialists. the pro- Germans, the
INV. w. and all in whom the flame
OF discomfort can be famed.
The stage is being carefully set
for the launching of the new party
The way is being paved for a repeal
of the draft law. That will probably
be the Introductory act.
Every local disturbance, whether
II is a soapbox orators meeting on
the streets of New York. or a keep
the-boys- at home" gathering in Min
nesota. is mama to the chiefs of the
new party.
Their eyes are set first on the con-
gressionaI elections a year from now.
Three years from now they will be
in the Presidential field. unless all
sans fan, and it will not be hard to
guess the name of their nominee.
Meanwhile the cue Of the camp
followers is to magnify every grew
ance: create distrust and discomfort;
array class against class; and hamp-
err and bring into disrepute Ameri-
cas- participation in the war.
