Law and Prevent Valued
Poller mil I.Ike e-hraaka'a.
An Important meeting of the fire In
surance men of Council Bluffs was held
yesterday afternoon In the office of W, F.
Sapp in the Metcalf block for the pur
pose, of dlacusslng and laying plans for
the "campaign of education" which the
Insurance Interests have decided to carry
on In this state.
lly this campaign of education the fire
Insurance Interests hope to be able to se
cure the repeal of the anti-compact law and
to prevent the enactment of a valued policy
law, such as is In oxlstenec In Nebraska.
The meeting was addrestted by H. N.
Wood of Omaha, state agent of the North
British and Mercantile Insurance company
of England, who bu been appointed spe
cial agent for the purpose of this educa
tional campaign for Council Bluffs and
Mills and Audubon counties. He explained
the modus opurandl that had been decided
upon by the committee appointed In Des
Moines, to catTy on the campaign, which
Is explained In the following circular to
bo distributed throughout the state:
I'latfnrm llriinil KnouKh.
ri. I....I...HAA ltrl Vinvi. rirclded to
I inn hibumiiii. .............. .......... - tu
! carry on a campaign of education In the
nroau sense oi ine icrni uini ;
list the earnest support of tho Insuring
public and every man engaged In the bus
The nlatfnrm I broad enough for
policy holder nnd underwriter alike "
stand upon. There are no special interests
to be benefited, the object sought being
the greatest good to the grcaten number.
It Is the belief of this committee that If
the natural laws of trade are permitted to
govern the fire tax may be equitably as
sinned nnd economically collected. It Is a
fact that every net of Insurance touches
the pocket of the policy holder because the
companies are simply collectors and dis
tributors of the nre tax. We believe the
most serious obstacle to the assessment
and collection of this tax In Iowa In the
manner above stated Is the laws now upon
Its statute books, placed there through a
mistaken Idea of the economic principle
governing tho business. The nystom of
making rntes by expert Inspectors has
.inr.r.i 1i U hnwpver. nil that IS
open to us In Iowa and Is the result of ex
iting state laws. We believe the local
board system Is far better for both the In
miring public and companies. Sc hedub!
rating, that Is, a system giving credits for
Improvements, and mnklng charges for ile
fects In construction, occiipany and ex
posure. Is the only eqiiltnble system or
levying this tnx, and the local board ss
tem the best method thus far discovered
by which rates so made can be collected.
It Is the purpose ol the companies doing
business In Town, following the repeal of
the nntl-compact law, to place the rate
making power In the hands of local agents.
Secrecy .Not Tolerated.
This campaign Is n departure. Tho-.com-mlttee
will conduct Its operations, without
secretary. Kvery move will be glvon to
tho public. It Is our purpose at the Incep
tion to take the public, especially; the
Eress. Mnto our absolute confidence. Wc
now our Industry, In which overy con
sumer Is Interested, has been discriminated
against, and wo now fully appreciate that
we are our "brother's tkeoper." Ave be
lieve by a full, frank statement or tne con
ditions as they actually exist that we may
runy rely upon tne support pi bumwcjh
men. It Is not generally knwnr but Is
nevertheless true, that the amount of
money paid for Insurance every ten y"ars
s equal to tne nnnonai iieni. inai i i u-k-
Inflmt hnrrtofnrn hns been alonir the tines
attempting to reduce this tax assessment
runout in any way reducing inc iiii"i"'
tlon for the fire waste. Wo believe this
policy is wrong, and If the Insurnnce In
dustry Is to blame for failure to properly
place the facts before tho people, we now
propose to mnko oil the amends possible,
and we earnestly solicit your assistance In
the matter.

practically fixed In this state by a private

the repeal of the anti-compact law to
place tho rate making power In the hands
of local agents.

I.I Kit tin Company Geta Extension.
The city council has granted the Citizens'
Has and Electric Light company an exten
sion to June 30 In which to commence Its
lighting contract with the city. Tho com
pany finds Itself compelled to erect a num
ber of additional poles owing to the de
mand of the motor company for what
Manager Nichols considers un excessive
rental for the use of Its poles. The Council
Bluffs Gas and Electric Light company
has been using about 300 poles belonging
to the motor company and President Wells
has notified Manager Nichols that his com
pany will expect a rental of M cents a pole
a soon as the new light system Is estab
lished. Manager Nichols thinks 10 cents
a sufficient rental and rather than pay the
higher figure will discontinue the use of
the motor company's poles. Even with this
delay Manager Nichols Is of the opinion
that the company will be ready to carry
out its lighting contract with the city be
fore June 30.
PHOTKSTS ACJAIXST ASSESSMENTS.
City Connrll llrnrs from C'ltlien Who
Don't I.Ike Increase.
The city council held a special session
last night as a board of review to hear pro
tests from those persona who objected to
having their assessments raised. Protests
were made by Mrs. M. J. Hunt, C. M. Harl,
O. W. Gerner, Walters & Wadsworth, E. E.
Hart, A. Metzger, A. Louie, C. B. Young
& Co., Day & Hess, M. Wollsteln & Co.,
Carbon Coat Co., L. Rosenfetdt, Peter
Lynch, Peter Brenholm, Anne Prendergast,

worth, C. Hafer, Mlthen estate, P. C. Nel
son, L. C. Besley, B. M. Sargent, C. R.
Hannan, John Bercshelm, most of whom
were represented by attorneys.
The board on motion of Alderman Longee
unanimously rescinded Its action In raising
the assessments of the following:
E. E. Hart, A. Metzger, A. Louie, Walters
b. Wadsworth. Day ft Hess, John Bereshelm.
James Bohn, Oscar Keellne, George Keellne,
George A. Keellne, S. Farnsworth, C. R.
Hannan.
The question of the right of the board to
charge the assessment after May 1 was
raised by Attorney noss, who appeared for
8. Farnsworth. He submitted a written pro
test, In which be said:
The action of your body In relisting
moneys and credits appears from the notice
to have been taken after tho 1st of May,
1601, and without the authority of the tax
ing laws and contrary to tho well estab
lished rule recognized by tho courts of this
state that property can only be taxed when
tho lawmaking power authorizes and re
quires It to be done, and can only he In
the manner prescribed by law, and that
under the provisions of section 1370 of the
code of 1807, the power to sit as a hoard of
review terminates on the first day of May
and cannot be exercised after that date.
Numbers of the protests wore taken under
consideration, and It is expected that an
other session will have to be hold to com
plete tho work. Judging from the action
of the board last night It Is evident that
the assessment will be left much as It wr
made by Assessor Everest.

CARROLL, la., May 21. (Special Tele
gram.) Senatorial politics In the Forty
eighth district, which Is composed of Car

a series of surprises. While It was fre
quently threatened that the Garst forces
would bolt the convention, It was a genuine
surprise when the DeWIng delegates bolted
and proceeded to organize another. V. R.
Lee, chairman of the county central com
mittee, refused tho request of eight mem
bers to convene the committee to name
a temporary convention chairman. Ho
named ono and refused to entertain any
other nomination. His nominee refused to
entertain any motions and amendments,
except one by the Garst men that tho
chairman appoint a credentials committee
of five, and the Garst men supported this
by force. The DeWIng men then left the
halt and organized another convention.
In the original meeting DeWIng had
sixty-six votes without contest and Garst
flfty-blght votes, eight votes being disputed.
Sixty-seven was a majority. Tho Garst
convention Instructed for Garst and Cum
mins, and counted three men who were In
