Insurance Commissioner Kazcr Has
Issued Bulletin No. I Having
to Do With His
Department.
(Mull Tribune Special Hcrvlc.)
SALEM,, Ore, Nov. 1C Follow
ing tlio nrnctlco In many of the In
surance donnrlmenta In tlio different
Btatco, Inannx .co ConunUeloncr Sara
Kosior lias Just Issued his first bulle
tin relating to departmental matters
concerning the Insurance situation In
Oregon. This bulletin Is Issued with
the avowed purpose of slng to the
citizens of the state much that Is
Important that they should know af
fecting Insuranco maUera with which
thoy ar0 dally brought In touch nnd
which nre of vital importance to the
successful conduct of their respective
businesses and In providing ways nnd
means In the future for those who
nre directly dependent upon them.
Investments In proposed Insurance
compnnles are forcibly referred to,
nnd out citizens are urged to give
the same careful attention to an In
vestment In such enterprises that
they would In any other business In
vestment. The success of an Insur
ance company depends vrholly upon
the ability, technical knowledge and
Integrity of the management, and no
greater return can ordlncrll. bo ex
pected from nn Investment In Insur
ance stocks than from a similar In
vestment In any c!her legitimate bus
iness. Rebating both by life and fire In
surance companies nnd tholr agents
Is strictly prohibited by statute, and
ho peoplo are urged not to accept
rebates and thereby Imperil the va
lidity of their contracts. The courts
hav0 hold that a policy on which a re
bate has been made Is Invalid.
Under a recent law a rating bu
reau has been established In the state
by tho general agents of authorized
companies for tho purpose of estab
lishing fair and equltablo rates on
tho Insurance property In Oregon.
This bureau Is now engaged In re-rat-Ing
tho different cities nnd towns and
endeavoring to fix equltablo rates
thareon In proportion to the liability
of risk assumtd. Very often the ba
sis upon which rates are established
are not fully understood by the as
sured, which often leadeds to dissat
isfaction and nn unjust criticism of
the Insuring companies. A means Is
now provided whereby our citizens
should have immediate" relief whore
excessive rates havo been hereto
fore charged for Insuranco.

ALLEGED NIGHT RIDERS ARE
PLACED ON TRIAL
UNION CITY, Tenn., Nov. 10. -For
tho second time, the alleged night
riders w'ho were indicted for the mur
der of Captain Rankin in October a
year ago were placed on trial here
today.
There is very little interest being
manifested in the trial as it is be
lieved the prosecution is practically
ended because it is said it is almost
impossible to secure competent jur
ors under the legislative laws.
Eight of tho men were tried for
murder a year ago. Six of this num
ber wero sentenced to hnng and two
wero given long prison sentences.
The supreme court, however, reversed
tho sentences nnd the men were re
manded for n new trial.

EDEN PRECINCT ITEMS
(United Tress I.eanoJ Wire.)
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. lfi. With
four of their family dead and three
of tho On Ylck men murdered as n
result of the tong war between the
Yee family and the On Ylcks, over
tures for per.co are being made today
by the Yees.
Yee Sing, head of the laundry clan,
said:
"Wo must acknowledge our de
font. It is iniposslblo for a peace
ful body of men like us to tight the
highbinders of tho On Ylck tong.
Further refusal to comply with their
demands would result In more
deaths In our family, and wo feel
that we woul 1 rather lose nny amount
of money than havo more of our
family killed.
"Wo will meet tho On Ylcks In all
their demnuds so far as In our power
and we antlcli uto no troublo In set
tling the financial part of tho depute.
Tho one point upon which wo arc
likely to split again Is our answer to
the demand of tho On Ylcks that wo
drop the charges against the men wo'
nccuse of murder. That wo cannot j
do." I
Tho war, which now showc signs of i
ending, was started early In Novem
ber over tho i.lleged nb Miction of a
Chinese slave girl by a Yee for which
the Y?es refused to pay an indem
nity to tho Ou Ylcks.
POM Mil NIP ATI ON.
To tlio Kriitor: Replying on your
willingness to ileal fairly with your
followniiMi, I wish to mil attention
to an editorial in your paper of yos
terdny which purports to ho a crit
icism of my "Open Letter to Senator
La Follotto," but which in reality
smacks very much of personal re
flection. Your insinuation t the effeet that
a crime was committed in tho eon
vention of county courts when they
unanimously voted to pay them
selves for tho valuable work thev
were doing for tho people, was en
tirely uncalled for. I did introduce
the resolution referred to, and am
ready to do so again at our next
meeting. Wo were there in the in
terest of our respective counties, and
for the purpose of devising ways and
means by which we might give tho
people maximum service at minimum
expense. Hut this had nothing to
do with my letter to Senator La Fol
lotto.
As to tho letter in uuestiou, the
ojily criticism iulini-ibU is to in
tpiire as to whether or not Senator
La Polled? told "the truth when lie
told about the tyranny and oppros
siou of the 'republican bosses and
did I tell the truth when 1 claimed
to have been telling tho same thing.
It matters not whether 1 am bigger
or smaller than La Follettto, Cumins
and Dolliver. The public care but
little about any man's bigness or lit
tleness, but most men in this enlight
ened age do enre much about fair
ness even in newspaper correspond
ence. Anything that 1 write for tho
public is public property, but my
personal charactor must be let alone.
Very respectfully,
STEPHEN' JEWELL.
