Republi can leader? calmly close their eyes to the criticisms heard on this line and they make no pretense whatever at restoration. Let the thoughtful citizen ponder upon these things. If, after all these exposii'-es. if, after the widespread discussion the revelations of graft and peculation have brought about, the republican national committee can escape with the stolen money known to be In Its possession, then why mas no tthe ric hraseals who are yet In charge of the great Insurance com panies make a little pretense toward reform while they are nil the time building up new and skillful plan for theft and plunder on an even larger scale? If the man who, as chairman of the republican national committee, pi'tlclpated In the misappropriation of several hundred thousand dollars nf policyholders' money can continue in the president's cabinet why may not the men responsible for the scan dals In insurance companies continue In power In those concerns? MIXICIPVL INSURANCE. HI Xf OMliK BY THE CUBIC YAM). Samuel I'ntermcyer declares that In the pretended reorganization of the Mutual Life Insurance company "a few scapegoats were sacrificed, but the men v ho were responsible for the scandal and thievery are In power today." The quotation Is made from Unter meyer simply because Xntermeyer Is a responsible and reliable man, in the ordinary acceptance of those terms, not by any means with any intention of discrediting the Mutual; but only to point the moral that cannot be effectively drawn without a concret? Illustration. The references made below to the republican party being the beneflc lary of money Illegally taken from the Mutual' treasury' are for the purpose of Informing the public of facts prov. n absolutely and undisputed, and Illustrating the general condition, and not with any purpose of raising a partisan political Issue. Granted that L'ntermeyer's state' ments are true, the average citizen is apt to Inquire: Hew much was ac complished that will be of real and lasting benefit, by the Insurance ex pose What protection can the poli cyholder have against frauds without end (under new hut not less effective methods,) this side of the same se curity he would feel In a postal sav- Inge bs.nk, where loss would be Im possible and the rate unchanging so long as the government at Washing' ton endured? That is Just what the public must look o :t for In the regulation of com mercial evils as well as In the regu latlon of political evils. With all of these exposes we are being treated to a large amount of buncombe. Is it surprising that these Influen tlal rascals have the temerity to fur ther impose on the people? Not In the least. They know that the public is long suffering and patient and they Imagine, with good reason, too, that a whole lot of pretense and a very little actual reform will go a long ways to ward 3pptai!ig public indignation , Is' It any wonder that these Influ . imtial rascals have the temerity to In Its last nnd best analysis gov ernment life Insurance simply Is an other form of exemplifying the prin ciple involved and recognized when the government pays a pension to the surviving widow or other dependent of a man who bears arms Instead of a spade, a hoe, or a pen. The prin ciple Is simply that which recognizes tr.at even- citizen engaged In a legitl mate calling Is a "soldier of the com mon good," In that his labor ami his elf-sacrifices contribute directly to he public wenl. Another phase of be nine principle Is tha texhlhlted the article below from the San Francisco Star: The plan of Mayor John P. Stud ley, of New Haven, Conn., to have the municipality attend to the fire Insur ante business Is well worthy of con slderation. The Studley plan was first broached at a meeting of thesedb broached at a meting of the mayors of the state of Connecticut, and manq if these gentlemen expressed them selves as favoring careful Investiga tion of the proposition, in the city of cused of Immoral conduct, are run-i nlng advertisements cf vile mall or der whiskey for the money there U In it, nnd this mull order whiskey, the most villainous compound that ever poisoned a human system', en joys n wide rural circulation that would not be available but for the publicity afforded by the columns of the agricultural press. Mr. T.aild demonstrates that lhes. whiskU s are not even what they pro fess to be and that Is bad enough. The men who put them up He, nnd they know it. Thi'v lie as to age nnd Miuillty.

Express companies are distrib uting Immense quantities , of these vicious drugs and poisoning at least a poriion of the community. And where are the pure food In spectors?

Kansas City Journal. THE OLD TRUNDLE IJKD. ' New Haven it is estimated that the premiums paid annually for fire Ir surance. amount to $500,000, while the losses are only about $125,000, the dlfferencj. $375,000, being profit to the Insurance compnnlef. The gr.'at catastrophe In this city has furnished Mayor Studley with ma terial frm which he ca ncertalnly strengthen his arguments. For In stance, If the fire Insurance compa nies can recuperate their losses, by raising thr rates for policyholders, it is certain that there Is money In the business; I'.nd If the city can run the business at a minimum cost, so as to give Insurance at a reasonable figure, it if time for the people to get in and save themselves money. One risk would certainly be done away with the repudiation of Insur ance and the withdrawal from tha city and slate of the sneak-thlef com pany. In case of catastrophe the city cannot get away, and Its obligations would always be made good. The Oregon state fair will soon he ('ii. 1 nose wno nave attended nave found It u wonderful educator, so to -peak, when they have gone to the fair seeking light. The fair Is attend ed by crowds;, and people from the farms to to the Oregon state fair In 'arge numbers. It would, however, be interesting to know what proportion of the farmer.? have never been to a state fair. The statement would doubtless be safe which claims that one-half the farmers lr. each state have never been lo a state fair. They lose much by net going, ns state fairs ire In'u sei.se indications of the pulse l prngies.

In very many senses the wvrils "come and see' may be mijiiI- f cant. Oh, the old trundle bed, where I slept when a boy, What panoplied knight might not covet the joy? The glory and peace of that slumber of mine, Like a long gracious rest In the bosom divine; The quaint, homely couch, hidden close from the light. Hut daintily drawn from Its hiding at night. Oh. a nest of delight, from the foot to the head. Was the queer little, dear little, old trundle bed. Oh, the old trundle bed where I won dering saw The stars through the window, und listened with awe To the sigh of the winds as they tremblingly crept Through the tree where the robins so restlessly slept, Where I hoard the low, murmurous chirp of the wren. And the katydid listlessly chirrup again, Through the maze of the dreams of the old trundlo bed. Oh, the old trundle bed! Oh, the old trundle bed! With Its plump little pillow nnd old fashioned spread; Its snowy white sheets and the blan kets above, Smoothed down and tucked around with the touches of love; The voice of my mother to lull me to sleep With the old fairy stories my memor ies to keep Still fresh as the lilies that bloom o'er the head Once bowed o'er my own In the old trundle bed.

A prominent official of the Stand ard "11 company died a few days ago a raise was expected In the price of oil to cover the funeral expenses. To the astonishment of the public the xpected advance was not announced nit it appears that the public has been mkiii'-; at the wrong end of the trnns- u.'tion. A' cut In th" price paid to reducers of crude oil of 3 cents per barrel in the east and 2 cents In the west brings the same results as a raise. The Dalies Chronicle.

Melville Ingalls, the western rail way magnate was induced oy friend while spending Sunday with him to attend service at a church, the pastor of which Is noted for the ex treme length of his sermons. As the friends were leaving at the conclusion of the service the Boston Inn, with a touch of pride, Inquired: "Dr. Blank Is a most eloquent min ister, Is he not?" "Very eloquent," was the dry re sponse of the railroad man, "but he has poor terminal facilities." AND STILL THEY COME.
