States, I think It our homo statesmen had
played their ctrds properly In 189G and 1897
this might havo been done. Hut they woro
too slow and 1'renldcnt McKlnley wau a
little too fust for them. I mado a trip to
Hawaii in 1897 and from there went to San
Francisco and thence ucross thu United
States to Knglnnd. 1 was In Washington
when thu Hawaiian Question was still un
settled. 1 was anxious to know thu feeling
of tho United Stnlcs concerning It beforo I
went to ICnglnud, nnd I called upon Secre
tary Sherman, who was then nt tho head of
thu State department. I found that ho was
not In favor of annexation nnd that ho
thought It would bo contrary to the Monroe
doctrine, which he uphold. I had quite a
long tnlk with him over tho matter. Ho
did not Impress mo as a strong man and I
left him with tho Idea that England had yet
a fair chnnco to get tho Hawaiian Islands.
"I next called upon President McKlnloy.
I had a little hesitancy at first In approach
ing hlm, but I thought to myself that the
president of Now Kcnland ought to bo on a
par with Iho ruler of any other country of
tho world nnd this stiffened me. 1 hud no
troublo In getting at your president. He
put mo nt my case and the moment ho
began to tnlk I know I was dealing with a
different sort of a man from tho secretary
of state. I presented my view of the
Hawallnn matter, proposing tho dual con
trol of England nnd tho United Stntcs. As
I did bo I saw tho president's jaws come
together nnd his Hps tighten. A rather
hnrd look camo Into his eyes, but ho
listened without n word until I II til shed,
when ho said emphatically:
" 'Mr. Seddon, tho people of tho United
Stntcs will never glvo up the Hnwallan
Islands. Thy must eventually belong en
tirely to us nnd nothing else will bo ac
cepted.' "I could see from the wny he spoko that
thcro would be no dcubt ns to his attitude,
and when 1 went over to Ixinilon I told tho
ministers of the quern that Hawaii would
surely become tho property of America.
And so It did."

Tho conversation hero turned to some of
tho now movements In New Zealand nnd
I nsked tho premier about tho government
control of tho railways. Snld I:
"Your excellency, you havo been a rail
road man from tho ground up. You havo
worked in the shops. You havo run nn en
gine nnd you have had to do with all sorts
of railroad construction. You nru now the
chief manager of a government which hns
built Us own railroads and to which tho
rallronds bulrng. Do you think It best for
tho government to own tho railroads?"
"Yes, I do." said tho New Zealand
prcmlor. "It If tho only way in which tho
rnllrcads should bo owned nnd operated.
Wo bellcvo tlio roods aro for tho people
and wu nro managing them in tho Interests
of th rcoplo find for the development of
tho country In that way which will best
help all tho people. Wo aro not trying to
make a profit out of them, and ns our
rovonucB lncrcnso we stendlly reduce
freight rales and pnss tiger fares. Wo aro
already fclvlng an excursion rnto of a penny

from work, Wo use tho trains to bring tlio
school children to and troir school freo of
chircu and we havo excursion trains to
tnko tho school children now and then out
ovor the counliy nnd give them practical
googrnphlcal lessons. We send out such
trains, which give excursions of 100 miles
for It cenlB per child. This Is Just about
tho extra coc.t of running such trains, nnd
nny pchool can ln taken off en i vncatlcn
or on mi Instruct Ive excursion nt thnt rate
upon thu request of the teacher.

"It is my Idea," l'remlur Seddon con

of the people, nnd that they should be run

kuts nt tho lowest posslblu cost and to

Now Zealand cnu compete with thoso of

"How much rnllrood havo you In Now
Zoaland?"
"Wo havo now moro than 2,000 miles, th
total cost of which has been a Uttlo moro
than 16,000,000, or In tho neighborhood of
480,000,000. Nearly nil the roads aro making
money. Tho cash rovenuo for 1899 amounted
to moro than J7.000.000, whllo tho expend
Ituro wns less than $5,000,000. The earnings
of some of tho lines rnuged from 5 to 13
per cent. Tho matter is very closoly
figured, and, tho roads belonging to tho
government, thoro Is no Incentive to glvo
anything olso but tho best servlco at tho
lowest posslblo cost.
"Do you think the United States can over
havo a successful control of tho railroads T
"I don't sco why not," ropllod Promler
Seddon. "Congress might tnko ovor tho
railroads at their market vnluo, paying for
thoni with govornment bonds. Much cash
would not bo needed, for tho holders of tho
railroad bonds would ho glad to oxchang
them for government bonds."

Our Legislators' Duty to the
People,
In thu closing hour of tho last legislature
sonnto Illo 35 becama a law. This bill
motided certain sections nnd created sec
tions 8ia nnd 8ub of chapter xllll of tho
Compiled Statutes of 1899. Under this act
o-called stipulated premium companies nro
compelled to charge as high a premium as
ld-llne llfo Insurance companies; but there
s not one lino In this lnw that says such
companies Hhnll keep any reserve where
with to meet future obligations. This law
escribes how funds mny bo Invested, but
n no plnco does It say funds shall bo In-
csted. Hence, policy holders nra at the
mercy of tho managers. It Is well under
stood that during tho first few yenra nftcr
llfo Insurance policy Is Issued thcro is
ut llttlo risk for tho compnny thnt carries
tho Insurance. It Ib during theso early
years that thu old-lino companies storo up
resorvo which, together with Interest enrn-
ngs, help out the company when men got
older nnd tho risk becomes greater. Such
companies nro required by law to keep a
reserve according to tho tablo of mortnllty
on which their premiums arc computed.
Tho state does not permit other financial
Institutions hnndling trust funds such ns
batiks, for Instance to transact business
iiless Bitch bnnk 1ms assets wherewith to
meet nil Its obligations. In llfo insiirnnco
ho conditions nro moro serious, becnuso
the liability Ib contingent upon tho death
f tho Insured nnd such contingency doc3
ot occur In nny mnrked degree for a groat
number of years after the contrnct liability
s assumed, ns the great majority of policy
holders will live from ten to forty years
fter tho policy Is Issued. It seems strange,
o say tho least, that one class of llfo
nsuranco companies should be compelled
o crente ond keep a reserve nnd nnothor
clnss charging the same premiums mny
o Just what they plenso with their pre
mium Income. Under tho present law no
ttpulatcd premium company can be de
clared Insolvent na long as It enn meet cur
rent death losses, although thcro may not
bo ono dollar of Invested nssets. Tho leg
Islaturo should repeal or nmend section 85n,
chapter 43, Compiled Stntutes of 1899, nnd
If tho natural and stipulated premium com
panies propose to redeem their promises
to tho public they cannot object to this
amendment. If they do not, then the ne
cessity of this lnw for tho pro-
ectlon of tho public Is apparent. Tho
public Is not versed In the Intricacies of
llfo insiirnnco nnd cannot distinguish be
tween theso and legnl reserve or old lino
companies.
Thoy, ns n rule, believe In thnt compnny
which Is organized according to lnw. and
protected by law, and Is chartered to do
business under the lnws of our stato. Tho
public, then, hns n right to demand thnt
Biich n company bo perfectly safe. Such
bhoitld bo tho fact; but the very opposite Is
tho enso when It comes to llfo companies or
associations organized under our lnws of
1899.
There Is gravo danger for tho futuro un
less this law Is amended. Krnternal Insiir
nnco Is not affected In nny wny by tho lnw
governing Mutual Iloneflt associations or Ub
amendments. They nro doing n grand nnd
noblo work nnd tens of thousands of fami
lies nro today provided for who would oth-
erwlso havo been In destitution.
