EPP.LEY Alderman RndclifT, author of tho insurance llconso ) ordinance, glvos out the following as to tho voto o.f the sumo oy Mayor Redgers: "Regarding Mayor Rodgors' veto ing tho ordinance introduced by my self, I was Informed yostordny morn ing that ono of the special agents had sooured a promise from tho may or thnt ho would voto tho ordinance. Howovor, I do not think tho council, being composed of business men, and some of thorn hoavy taxpayers, will sustain the veto. I havo this to say, that 1 anr writing flro Insur ance, but was not elected by them or any other corporation, aud ns long as I am ono of tho aldormon of tho council I shall stand for tho people thnt I represent,' rognrdlcss of my own lutorost, or tho Interests of cor porations, and i' am willing for tho public to sny who Is In tho right In this mnttor, myBelf and nlno other councllmon who, voted for tho ordi nance, or tho mayor and tho two aldormon who voted, against It. I nolo In his mossago to tho coun cil that each flro Insurnnce company pnys $18 por year for taking out of tho city a total amount of nbout 4B. noo, but he doos not stuto thnt llfo, accldont, surety nnd pinto gloss companlos do not pay ono cont to tho city, nnd still we havo an Inter view from an ngont of ono of tho llfo Insurnnco compnnlos, published a few da) s ago, In which ho stntos that his company pnld to tho state $1700 as a 2 por cont tax on tho buslnoss dono In tho stnt last year. In mak ing this statement ho probably did not consldor tho fnct that $1700 rop roBonts $85,000 that has been taken out of tho stato and Snlcm has not boon slow In contributing her part, nnd yet It Is clnlmcd to bo unjust to nsk tho poor, much-taxed companies to co-opornto with tho. taxpayers that aro paying tnxos to maintain tho city, to ask thorn to pay tho smnll sum of $50 por yonr. I nm Intorost- ed In Salem, aud what llttlo propor ty I havo Is hore, and I would only ho too glad to pay tho city a llconso of $D0 por yonr for tho prlvllogo of doing an Insurance buslnoss hero, nlthough my buslnoss Is very small. Tho mayor makes the statoment that It would force tho withdrawal of some of the companlos from tho city. 1 bag to ask It the nssossor, whon ho Is assessing the Individual proportv holder It ho considers whtthor ho will havo to withdraw from tho city? Why should Insurnnco companlos that overrun tho city havo any more favorable consideration than tho man who Inbors by tho day, and has his tax to pnyT "Uogardlng tho reduotlou of tho 25 por cont any Insurance agont of tho city knows that It is very arbi trary, und In short rating It Is 25 per cont In policies that were Issued during tho first part of tho sonson tho small porceutago Is paid to tho Insured. 1 do not think tho flro In surnnco companlos should bo com pelled to pay license nnd tho lire and other Insurance companlos that aro taking tho money out of Salem should havo nothing to pay whatev er. 1 hold that It ono company should pay a llconso all should. I do not believe thero Is a city In tho Pacific Northwest whero tho Insur ance companies aro making tho mon oy they do In Salem. I know of uo city where rates are as high and ns few losses as thero Is In this city. It Is well known thnt tho cltlions of our neighboring state, California, tell us that It rains nlno months In each year and yet through that board of flro underwriters of that state, tho rates are raised almost every threo months. I claim that tho flro department, tho streets and alarm systems, are maintained more directly in the Interests of tho fire Inauranco companies than of any In dividual, and they should pay their part ot th cost to maintain the same. They do not havo ono dollar of property in the city that Is reached ty direct tax. He also stated that the companies woutd Increase tho rate in order to weet tho additional tax. I do not understand that tho rates are ar rived at on this basis.

It may bo well founded. But personally I do not think thero will bo any Increase, only as there has been in tho past, which has been a gradual increase in rates, and will contlnuo until such time that tho in surnnco companies may seo that it will bo against tholr Interest to raise them regardless ot city license, but should there be a small increase In rates is it not a fact that this license tax will como directly to tho people. and they would be benefitted by it. I em sure the public has not forgot ten tho raise ot 25 per cent and the (city license was not the cause of this ralso) this went directly to the Insurance companies, and there were no managers, general or special agents sent to the city to lobby against this raise, and I bopo the city will find some way in which it may compell the many companies to equally bear their sharo of the taxes with tho people." 1)1 HI).
