' to talk about them at Fourth of July cele

the spirit of Abraham Lincoln, who pointed
out that there was, of course, a certain

equal, but realised by his life and his
deeds, the profound truth and that In the
Jarger sense. In the real, the all-Important
sense there can and muBt be 'an equality
among all men. This equality we of the
American republic must seek to secure
among our fellow clttsens. It Is an equality
of rights before the law, a measureahle
equality of opportunity, so far as we can
secure It, for each man to do the best

that equality which we should prise above

Tribute to McCleltna.
. President Roosevelt began his address by
giving generous praise to General George
P.. McClellan, of whom the heroic eques
trian ststue today was unveiled under di
rection of the Army of the Potomac. Mc
Clellan, he said, had commanded In aome
of tha most Important engagements of the
civil war, forever Unking his name with
the mighty memories of that conflict. The
president extended the greeting of the na
tion to Mrs. McClellan, the widow of the
general, and her family. He also praised
the statue as a beautiful addition to
Washington and thanked the committee for
having chosen a noted sculptor to do the
work.
Appropriate ceremonies, civic and mili
tary, marked the unveiling. Dr. George
XffClellan of New Jersey, the general's
nephew, pulled the string releasing the
j flags enveloping the statue. As the statue
, came Into view the soldiers fired a salute
i and the bands played "The Star Spangled
j. Banner.

WANT GRAFT SHUT OFF IN THl STATES
Omana Man on Return Iron F.ast
Advocates Appointment of Re
bruaka Commission by
the Governor.
Ralph W. Breckenrldge, chairman of the
Insurance committee of the American Bar
association, has returned from a two days'
meeting of 'the committee 'held In Phila
delphia last week, at which Insurance re
forms were discussed and many1 of them
embodied In a report which w)dl be made
at the meeting of the Bar association In
Portland, Me., In August. At the last
meeting other business prevented the con
sideration of the report of the Insurance
committee, but this year It has been made
a special order and will be thoroughly dis
cussed. Such of the , reforms ss are en
dorsed by the national association will be
placed before the various state legislatures
for the purpose of securing uniformity In
Insurance legislation.
Heretofore the' committee had laid great
stress upon federal supervision of Insur
ance companies, but this year It has de
cided not to urge this particular reform,
but will devote Its energies to others, of
which an annual apportionment of deferred
dividend and changes In state laws tend
ing to raise the standard of Insurance com
missioners are the most Important.
Enouarh Now to Defeat It.
"While a majority of the committee does
not concede that It was mistaken In advo
cating federal supervision," said Mr. Breck
enrldge, "we realize that It has a suf
ficient number of oi ponents to defeat it
now. We are snxlous to secure favorable
action on these other things and will defer
our recommendations for federal super
vision." One of the most Important of the changes
advocated by the committee la the com
pulsory listing of the surplus of life In
surance companies as liabilities Instead of
assets, as they are now listed. The recom
mendation also provides for a contingent
distribution of dividend surplus on all poli
cies now In force, or a statement of the
value of Immature policies at a given time.
The committee will also seek to secure
favorable action on Its recommendation
that Insurance commissioners where ap
pointive shall be taken out of politics and
tha offices filled on a merit Instead, of a
political basis. 'This the committee believes
will secure a higher grade of commis
sioners and better work by the Insurance
departments.
Graft Is Immense.
"In many of the states where the In
surance commissioner is appointed the of
fice Is looked upon as one of the most Im
portant political plums," said Mr. Breck
enrldge, "and the result Is the graft In
the offices has been continuous and Im
mense. The office haa been used for black
mall and thieving until It Is no wonder we
have the big scandals of the New York
Investigation, besides smaller scandals In
many of the states Pennsylvania, for In
stance. "Our committee has recommended that
men of higher efficiency be appointed or,
where possible, the ofncebe made elective.
It Is because unscrupulous men or men of
little ability have been placed In tluase offi
ces that Insurance companies have been e4
to resort to trickery and corruption.
' "I do not want to be understood as re
flecting on our owh Insurance department.
In Nebraska It would be Impossible to make
the office of Insurance commissioner elec
tive without an amendment to the consti
tution. For this reason, personally, I think
the commissioner should be appointed by
the governor and 'accountable to some one
besides the auditor. I do net believe, the
office should be a mere bureau In the aud
itor's office."
Shut Out the Wild Cats.
The committee also favors the shutting
out of wildcat Insurance companies by the
enactment of federal laws prohibiting the
use of the molls by them. This, it is be
lieved, would be effective because the
greater part of their business Is transacted
by correspondence.
The other recommendations of the com
mittee are as follows:
A requirement that all foreign Insurance
companies deposit with at least one state a
sufficient fund to prevent a recurrence of the
San Francisco Incident, when several Ger
man companies doing business without hav
Ing made a deposit repudiated their con
tracts. The repeal of retaliatory tax laws, since
they Increase the cost of Insurance to the
policyholder.
The repeal of the valued policy laws, as
they result In fraud, perjury, arson and
other crimes.
The appointment of a fire marshal In
each county, with a Sufficient number of
deputies to make the work of his office ef
ficient. The following members of the committee
were present: Ralph W. Breckenrldge,
Omaha; Rodney A. Mercur, Towanda, Pa.;
Burton Smith, Atlanta, Ga.; W. R. Vance,
dean of the Law school of the George
Washington university. Washington. D. C.
Robert Dunlap of Chicago was the only ab
sent member. )

Fenelnar In the It iht-of-Way.
SILVER CREEK, Neb., April SO. To the
Editor of The Bee: For teveral years prist
the Union Pacific liallrond company has
been trying to lease Its right-of-way lands
to the adjoining farmers and the farmers
have generally refused to sign these leasos
chiefly on the ground that, as they claimed,
these lands they had been cultivating for
the statutory period or more were theirs
by the right of adverse possession. Some
two or three years arro the supreme court
of the United States held against this con
tention and thst the right-of-way lands
of the land grant roads were theirs for all
time, but they could not In any wny '
alienate them, sell them or give them away '
so long as these roads were operated and j
that they might make use of them at any
time no matter who might be In actual !
poneaalon of them. I have not seen the
opinion, but this, in brief, Is as I under- 1
stand It-
The Urilon Pacific railroad crosses my
home Quarter that I took as a soldier's
homestead thirty-five years ago. I have
cultivated about ten acres of this right-of-way
ever, since and have uniformly refused
to sign these leases. Home time last winter
while the ground was froien the company
moved Its fence out 200 feet from the center
of the track, as It had a right to do under
the dectsilon above referred to. and the
laws of Nebraska.
But why should the company do this and
deprive me of the use of the land which
they did not want and cannot use. In face
of tha fact that It could take It at any
time. If It should ever happen to want to
use It, no matter whether.lt was fenced or
not?
The railroads have been sowing the wind.
Last winter they reaped a crop of whirl
winds, and they are very likely to reap
other crops of whirlwinds hereafter.
Whether or not they ever took that view
of It, they are at the mercy of the farmers
along their roads; there Is a limit to human
endurance and It might be well not to push
them too far.
This morning two young men represent
ing the railroad company came along and
wanted to lease to me the land the company
last winter took from me. I again refused
to sign and shall always refuse. The fence
and enclosure may remain as a monument
to the arrogance, the cupidity and general
cussedness of the Union Pacific railroad.
Other farmers may algn or not as they
please. CHARLES WOOSTER.
