; ft the board announced thla morning that
; lie saw no rtrnn for exempting f hew
' policies, an they lertslnly represented Jut
much cash and he could not find, so ha
. ated. anything; In th law that would
Justify th board In exempting them.

(turned Into the companies for a rash val
nation, as nearly all of the Insurance writ
ten during the last ten years In this state
was of that character. Last year there
.was written I1H.MS.34 SO, and a sweater por
. tlon of these policies can be turned Into
the company. If not thla year, then within
three years, for cash. .
Ex-Speaker Mockett. who presided In the
house during the discussion and enactment
. cf the revenue law said he did not believe
there waa an authority for the state
board to tax the ; surrender policies. e.
; cause the Insurance companies had already
!pald a tax un the tferrliims. and to again
(tax the policy wottfd be double taxation.
'lie, with ather Ineurance men. will look
'tip authorities on th suVJect and will make

'bear protests from fraternal companies re
rirdlng the taxation of securities deposited

Springs most of the night and did, not
reach Wymore until about I a. m. It la
reported that the Rock Island failed to get
a train through from this city to Falrbtiry
