Govern nent Self Insurance
Among the problems that will present
themselves for solution to the American
people in the very near future is govern­
ment self-insurance. Up to a compara­
tive! v ree nt period the fidelity and in­
tegrity of public officers—national, state
and muncipal—was guaranteed by |»er-
sonal surely bon Is. The establishment
of bond Guaranty companies which for a
consideration assume the risk of mak­
ing g°Jd losses that may be incurred
through dishonest custodians of public
funds has almost entirely superseded the
personal bond surety system ami paved
the way for a monopoly of the guaranty
insurance business.
As a natural consequence the guaranty
company bonds have become a specific
tax upon public officers, who in turn
have succeeded in many instances in
shifting the bond insuranceexpense from
their own shoulders to the general pub­
lic.
It does not require a stretch of the
imagination to foresee that the evolution
from ¡»ersonal liability bonds to guaranty
company insurance must inevitably lead
to the assumption on the part of the
states, counties and cities of the expense
of insuring the faithfulness and honesty
of all public officers at the public expense.
It it is right and proper for the state to
repay the state treasurer for the cost
of his insurance premium it is equally
to refund to the governor, the supreme
court judges, the state officers, state
agents and state employes the premium
on their guaranty bonds. If it is right
and propet for the state to bear the ex­
pense of guaranty bonds for officers who
fill every branch of the state government
it is equally proper lor the counties,
cities, villages and districts to defray the
obligation incurred by their officers in
the shape of bond insurance premiums.
When that stage is reached we will be
forced to ask ourselves whether the
states, counties and cites should not
assume the whole risk of integrity in­
surance through the creating of an in
s rancejfui d I y deduct in 4 a fixed per­
centage from the salaries of all public
officials and the establishment of bureaus
of inspection and audit that will guard
against undue risk. While government
self insurance would doubtless be stren­
uously resisted by the guaranty bond
companies and might be unpopular with
some office holders, it would have the
support of the taxpayers. The imposi­
tion of a trivial salary tax, graduated
according to thesize of the income, would
be no hardship on office holders and
would work no injustice to anybody.
The fact that guaranty insurance is now
levied arbitrarily by what may be con­
sidered an insurance trust is within it­
self a most forceful argument in favor of
government
self insurance — national,
state and municipal. It is a step that
will force itself upon the country sooner
or later as a matter of public necessity.
showed that the banks of the west gen­
erally had Ixrrti improving their condi
tion in the matter of reserves ami were
at that time particularly strong. There
is good reason to believe that they are
still stronger now.
At all events this fact seems to be
very clearly defined at this time, that
the west during the coming summer
will be quite able to take care of itself,
sotaras the movement of the crops is
concerned, and also to provide all the
money that may be needed to take care
of its other legitimate industries. As
we pointed out some time ago, upon the
authority of facts and figures which
were indisputable, the west is today
practically independent in a financial
wav of the east, so far as its legitimate
requirements are concerned, and there
is every probability that it will con­
tinue in that position, at least so long
as it is vouchsafed good crops. The
face that the west has been withdraw
ing its money from the east is the best
possible assurance of western financial
independence.
$1,000,000 Timber Deal.
S eattle , Wash., July 4.—C. H. Cobh,
Rulus Smith and James Campbell, ol
this citv, and Frank Brownell, of Everett,
have just purchased 50,000 acres of tim-
her land on Vancouver Island, for which
they paid $1,000,000 cash. According
to the report of cruisers who have been
inspecting the lands for many months,
there are 2.500,000,000 feet of good tim
her on them, and a wealth of common
stuff. It is by far the biggest timber
deal since the Weyer ha user syndicate
bought up so many lands in Western
Washington several vears ago, and it is
regarded as one of great importance to
the lumbering interests of the North
west.
