Another matter which the city council took up al its la meeting is that

will come the matter of insurance rates.; and then trouble will commence.
The history of the fire insurance business relates that solicitors and ohhcers
of insurance companies are always glib with their suggestions that a town
should have better fire protection; they explain that high rates must be
charged because the hazard is so great But always, it SEEMS, when the
hazard they complain Of has been removed. and their suggestions a to fire
protection fully complied with, still there are all sorts of bitches about any
lowering of rates. The business men of the town will find, unless history
fails to repeat itself, that some strenuous agitation will be necessary in
order to secure from insurance companies the benefits We Ire justly entitled
to in the matter of lower prices for fire insurance.

Burdette is reprinted from The Silver State of that date
The "boodlersa came down like the wolf IN the fold,
And scooped in the silver and greenbacks and gold;
From the town o the lake to the town by the sa
They raked in the Doodle" from A to L.
The people we're stupid, and silly, and green,
And the booHers the checklist thieves ever seen;
In the street, in the Office, by night and by day,
They grabbed what they wanted and took it away.
They laughed when the newspapers gave them a blast,
And they winked in the face of the judge a he passed,
For they knew while this land should be peopled With men
PPeople put them in prison, but then all the same
Elected new boodlers to keep up the game;
From Tweed to McGarigle-who but believes
It's the fate of the land to be governed by thieves?
Pickpockets and gamblers, thieves, drunkards and toughs,
Ex-convicts and sluggers, bartenders and roughs,
Forgers. fencers and liars, and confidence men,

Numerous stock and bond exchanges" have sprung up like toadstools

but the market quotation" is IN outrageous fake. bordering on fraud. For
a 500 bond, quoted o the New York exchange at $97, the average Liberty
bond fakir will offer 1913; and usually the offer is accepted, ever though the
bond owner could go two blocks further to a reputable and established bond
house, and sell his bond for the full market price, less a tiny commission
not exceeding SO cents per 800 bond.
The Liberty bond fakir knows that millions of men and women, totally
unacquainted with the simplest financial machinery outside of the savings
bank, have bought the securities; and that many Of them, having
bought beyond their means, nevertheless are ashamed to sell openly or to
ask advice al to the best method Of realizing on their securities. Baang his
tactics OF ignorance and fear, the fakir rents a n office o. desk room and
adverises that he pays cash for Liberty bonds. All he needs is a cash
capital If a few hundred dollars. He buys four o five hundred dollars
worth Of bonds at 81 or IS per bond below the market, takes them to a
real bond house, sells them IN a small commission, and pockets the differ
ence of s12 o s14. On partalypaid bonds his profits are proportonatey

If you must sell a Liberty bond, avoid the fakirs. Go to your bank, or
to a established bond house. and " money. In the meantime, the
Treasury Department might with profit plant its heels on the bond fakirs

Possibility of Bringing Ex-Kaiser
To Trial Regarded DOubtfully

(By Herbert Bayard Swope.)
(By Telegraph From N. Y. World,
Copyrighted.)
Paris. May 19.-The best opinion
expressed in conference circles here
is entirely incredulous concerning the
possibilities OF bringing the kaiser to
trial. No steps whatever nave been
taken to that end, and those most
intimately concerned are unable to
discover what steps can be taken to
make him amenable, as ne enjoys
the sanctuary of Holland which can
not be violated unless single nation
can specifically indict for an extra
dition on all offenses. In that event,
he must be tried by tribunal and
under the laws of that nation and
not by a mixed tribunal before which
he could be brought only IL surrend-
cred by Holland. And Holland, re-
garding him as political offender.
shows no sign of surrendering him
No analogy is affortled by Napoleon's
case, as he surrendered TO an enemy
power, and it is the simple truth that
