SO ACTION ON INSURANCE

SOME ACTION MaY BE TAKEN LATER

r'ioin a Staff Correspondent.)
1o.Ni.oiA, Fco. 2. (special.; The ten
fire insurance companies cuarged wlih be
ing a combine to maintain a nigh rate of
lnnirur.ee will receive their licenses from
tux stuto auditor notwithstanding the
cnargc and protests hied against the com
panies by Lincoln parties. Auditor Searle
tin in; to this conclusion today utter a con
futation with Attorney General Brown.
Later when the supreme court has passed
upon the constitutionality of tho Junkin
anti-trust act the auditor will hear tho
protects and If tho evidence Justifies such
action tho licenses will be revoked. On
looking up tho state trust laws and su
premo court decisions In such matters Mr.
Searlo discovered that a restraining order
had been Issued by Judge McPherson of
tho federal court In Just such a case as
this and that the other anil-trust laws
were now In the hands of the supreme
ourt In the graiu case. Besides that he
believe It would be little short of a ca
lamity to stop these companies now, as
they ar practically all of the fire Insur
ance companies doing business In the state
except the home companies. Regarding the
matter he Issued the following statement:
1 have concluded to Issue licenses for the
em-rent year to all Are Insurance com
'panics whose reports on their fnce comply
with the law, reserving the right to pro
wed under -th Junkln-aet Into the troth of
the facts -alleged In the complaint filed be
fore me charging the Insurance companies
with a violation of said act. Should the In
vestigation dlacloae that the charges made
re true and the supreme court of the state
puataln th Junkin act I shall revoke the
licences of those companies found to have
Violated the law.
I have reached this conclusion because
the alleged combination to fix rates in vio
lation of law applies to more than SO per
cent of the Are Insurance companies doing
business In the state and to refuse a li
cense to one would not be Justified unless
the same action was taken with respect to
all the others. To refuse them all licenses
would be to deprive the owners of the bulk
or the property In the state of Are protection
and would Amount to a public calamity. I
ilo not feel Justified In provoking such a
condition unless the Interpretation by the
court of the law and the facts make it my
. ii'ty to do sr. This department Is bound
bv the Injunction writ Issued by Judge Mc
'herson restraining it front proceeding In
any way to Interfere with the business of
fire Insurance companies by reason of any
lleiced violations of the laws on the
salute books relating to - said companies
Other than the Junkin act.
I have no doubt that should the court
sustain the Junkin act and the evidence
warrants the legal department of the state
would proceed to dissolve any Illegal com
bination or conspiracy In restraint of trade
In Insurance business.
I.eslnlntora Keep Pauses.
From reliable sources It was learned to
day that tho appointees of Governor
Mickey are not the only state employes
who have failed to act In accordance with
th resolutions of the last republican state
convention, but are still riding on their
passes. Information that Is deemed ab
solutely reliable was received here from
Omaha today that out of the l.'B members
of the late legislature only two had re
turiictl their passes. The supreme Judges,
it was reported from Omaha, had not re
turned any passes and neither had any of
the congressmen except Congressman Kln
kald. lie, so It was reported, had returned
his Union Pacific annual.
So far as heard from none of the ap
pointees of Governor Mickey have done
anything toward getting Into the same
wagon with their chief. If any of them
have returned their annuals since the gov
ernor came out flat-footed that he opposed
the use of them by his appointees the gov
ernor has not yet been Informed of the
matter. Neither have they considered the
proposition of resigning because they dis
like to follow the examplo and the wishes
of their chief.
Chinese Remember Mickey.
Governor Mickey was the recipient of a
nice Chinese vase, the gift of Tal Hung
and Tuan Fang, the head of the Chinese
commission now touring America. With
the vase came a letter thanking the gov
ernor and the people of Lincoln for tho
t entertainment given to tho commission
while In Lincoln for one day recently.

gave out the following statement today:
Owing to the unusual number who took
part in the butter and cow Judging con
tests, at the annual meeting o me Ne
braska Dairymen's association, held on
February 17 and IS, necessitating the assem
bling, looting and averaging of the, score
on more than m score cards used by the
contestants, some little time lias elapsed
before it was possible to determine the re
sults of the contests. As a large per cent
of those who took part in these contests
are attending the School of Agriculture ut

licly announce the results at that place.
