TAXATION SUBJECT TOO BIG Insurance Men at Louisville Disease It, bat Defer the t lttraate Solu tion, Rari Dreckenrldjte. Ralph W. Rreckenridge returned Satur lay from Louisville, hore he hus been attending a meeting "of Insurance men of Ihe country with Insurance commissioners from the various states' to consider the luestlon of Insurance taxation. "The meeting waa representative, as iommlssloners from fourteen states were 'n attendance," said Mr. . Hreckenrldge. 'We took up the question of valuation tnd decided tho best way to form a valua tion was by striking an average for the laat thirteen months, ending December 31, 1307, and It waa deetded to call for expert testimony for doubtful validation." Considerable dnh.ite was had on the mode of taxation. Those leading .In the dlscus n'on werVj W.-. Rrosmlth, general counsel and representative of all the accident and casualty compaulcs; Rober,t I,ynn Cox, secretary of the National Association of Life Insurance Presidents, of which asso ciation Grover Cleveland is .president, and who was also a member of t lip Armstrong legislative committee, which has been dis charged; J. II. Mcintosh of the New York Ufe Insurance company and formerly pf Omaha, and others. Mr. Rreckenrldge waj the sole representative .pf t)e Are Insur ance companies. "After ttto, days'' discussion," said Mr. , Prcckenrldge, , "jvo. ound. thw subject of taxation entirely i too &gio'- handle at . that meeting, as It Involved too many de tails and the committee adjourned subject to the call of the chairman. The senti ment seemed to be In favor of reducing tho tax burdens and ' equalizing the tax. For the last three years the total tax on the fire Insurahce'prerniume has averogod 3 per cent. This Increases the cost of firs Insurance immensely, as It takes all tin ' profits of the gross premiums after ex penses and losses are paid. The taxes for Are Insurance premiums alone lsstj year amounted to JtS.500.o0'. and the total tax on Insurance was between IlD.QOO.OOO Bnd tiS.OCO.TXX). The outlook seemed favorable for a reduction."

C (Fperlal.)-The Roose velt club which Krank Harrison got organ ised to boost the president for another term and which got well under way at the time the president reafflrmy-d that he would not he a candidate, has now gone by the boards without any 'formal announcement of Its decease. The day after the presi dent's statement came out Frank Harrison began to root for a LaFoltette club, while the other leaders In the- Roosevelt club stopped to get their breath. When they discovered there waa ho more use for a Roosevelt club the 123 which hao been col lected Was turned over to the City Charity association, which was tho Only formal action taken marking the passing of the organization. Since the flareup the first jart of the week, when presidential clubs were started for almost every man whose name had been mentioned In connection with the nomination, things have been quiet, here, gome one remarked that It was accidentally discovered that Lincoln was not tho only place on the map and that It was Christ mas week Instead of election time. During the week Chairman Hayward of the republican state convention was here, but he had no Idea when he weuld call the state committee together and neither waa he talking politics. 1' ear hers Mar Come (a Omaha. , If Omaha makes a fight for tho meet ing of the next state teachers' association, to be held In 190S, according to a prom inent school man there Is every reason to believe the teachers will respond and leave Lincoln. From out In the state re ports have reached Lincoln that . the teachers are much disappointed at the lack of Interest taken In the meetings by the business men of Lincoln and by the presi dent of the Commercial' club, who Is a member of the local committee. Inasmuch as Lincoln has had nearly nil of the teach ers' meetings, the teacher had reason to expect the town to come to the front royally in assisting In making the meeting a success. It is reported that- even the Lincoln teachers have not shown the proper interest which has caused, many of the teachers out In the state to become dis pleased. Though the meeting begins next Wednesday Lincoln his practically Over looked! and for this reason, the fight for the next meeting is liable to be a hard one, with advantages in favor, of some town or city other than Lincoln. The teachers will have a hard fight over the selection of .a president of the associa tion, it ia predicted, .because of the many lightning rods up for the republican nom ination for state superintendent. "The can diutes, it is said, desire the presidency of the association as a stepping atone to Mc Hi'ien'j shoes. .

The objection was sustained and the physician also rested upon his right not to violate tho confidence of his patient. Harold Nyboo, who was In the game at the time the trouble arose, testified much upon the lines of witnesses Hront and Hendrlckson for the state, excepting that as' he was running from the room, even before the first shot, he heard someone say, "Help!
