in Canada they had a mammoth mu-
t,ial insurance company carrying
risks in Halifax and many other cities
at the time of the great marine ex-'
plosions there couple of years ago,
and it bankrupted the company and
threatened so many individuals all
over those provinces that the domin-
ion government made an appropria-
ton and paid millions of dollars out
of the tax money to get prompt re-
lief and to pay for this monumental
failure of some folks who thought
mutual insurance was such snap
that they could operate on low rates.
There came a day when a disaster
in one town ruined them and threat
ened the whole public, threw the
burden on the whole public and made
it necessary to start all over again
on plans which the mutual company
had been scorning for years. If an
other disaster had followed at Tor
onto or Montreal where they had a
vast amount of risks, their claims
would not have been worth cent
either.
Greatest of Disasters.
The greatest disaster that ever ov-
ertook the insurance world was the
San Francisco quake, and ! will give
some information on that in a Ia
ter chapter or chapters. In the next
chapter l will tell something about
mutual hail insurance, government
hail insurance, government taccident
insurance and government monopol-
istic accident insurance as it has
worked out in other states, and |
respectfully call it to the attention
of Commissioner d. w. Church of
the Idaho insurance bureau, who told
me few weeks ago that he did not
know of any other states that had
engaged in insurance long enough
to have had any experience to report
upon.

calls this action the recticatiou of Il
century old injuSticc.' Historical and
contemporary facts easily support this
view.
BoS>urabia was formerly part Of
Moldaviu. which with Wallachia wa.
subsequently organized into the modern
kingdom of Rumania. The fertile ex o
trCmC southwest corner of Russia was
acquired by the old monarchy from
Turkey in 1872.
The population has always been pre-.
ponderatingly Rumanan. That the
sentiments of this population are un-
changed is proved by the recent clcr-
tiouS, fairly conducted. which were
overwhelmingly in favor of Bessarabiau
