In the ernate the' cloture rule proposed

the floor virtually the entire session, his
ilRcij1nn ranging' from criticism of
aliased eiecuttra Interference, with legis

revised bill would ga through the house
without serious difficulty. Senate repub

failed to eliminate the two principal ob

permit the purchase of belligerent owned

Oppose nature.
While insurgent sen to democrat at
tended 'the morning cloture conference
they were outspoken In their opposition
to either e-perial or geaeral rules to limit

1 n the course 'of his remarks today,
Ponator Durton asked Senator Fletcher,
In charge of the "hipping bill, why the
administration was so opposed to the spe
cific prohibition of the purchase of bel
ligerent interned ship. , ' .
'That would cot bo a wise or patriotic
course," said Senator nf:her, "and It
would bo writing Into the law denuncia

"'That shows that you are looking for

Advidc to the
Attorney General's Opinion
On Mutual Insurance Companies.
YORK. Nb., Feb. 12. To the FVItor of
The Ree: In The Bee of the 11th Instant
la published what purports lo be an
opinion of the attorney general that all
mutual firs and lighting companies In
Nebraska are. In legal effect, unincorpo
rated and merely eKnggerated partner
ships, because their articles of Incorpora
tion are ( not filed In the office of tho
secretary of state.
The attorney general's opinion, a re
ported li the press, was manifestly not
carefully prepared and will not bear
analysts, lie evidently meant his opinion
to apply to "assessment associations."
for not one of tho seventy companies In
cluded In his condemnation I a "mutual"
eompany, sH the term I defined by the
present statute.
Th companies affected Include aU th
county and state farmer Insurance; as
sociations, having more J han two hundred
eventy-flv millions of dollsr (J2TS.00),
00i) nt rUk, and unless It b correct, the
attorney general should at onoe publicly
repudiate lu , ,
If ho is right. It Is singular, but true,
that not one of these companies Is legally
or'aniscd, although most of them were
Incorporated under thn direction of able
and experienced Nebraska, lawyers, act
ing not at all In collusion, but independ
ently and at different time and places.
If ho la right, all the attorneys general,
tats auditor and Insurance commtenlon
er who hvo preceded him In th official
ervlc of the stat have boen seriously
delinquent In the performance ot their
orfldal duties.' for certificate have been
laa.od annually to all these companies
from tho state tnsnrsnco department
reciting that !hy were conducting their
businee m accord with tho law. Twenty
four year la a long time for such a vital
defect In so vast and important a busi
ness to escape tho scrutiny of an these
capable lawyer and stats' oflcer.
To come bluntly to tho point. Chapter
XXXIII of tho session law of Nebraska,
tot 11. under which those compajile
were originally organised, doe not re
quire that their aitloJe of incorporation
b filed in th office of the secretary of
state, and the method of Incorporation
provided by that gtatute is manifestly
oxctualvo and complete within Itself, and
there Is no ground for any opinion to tho
contrary.
But apart from th accuracy, or Inac
curacy, of this opinion of tho attorney
general, th manner of Its promulgation
and tho sole use to which It hsa so far
been put. ( are certainly deplorable. , No
notlca of It over camo to any of tho
companies Included In It sweeping con
demnation, and tho consternation and dis
may or th hundred of thousand of
farmer In Nebraska, who first learned
of It In tho publlo press can bo better
Imagined than described. An opinion
coming from auch lofty, official source
properly carries great weight, and the
responsibility of the attorney general Is
accordingly very great, both respecting
fh correctness! of hi opinion and th
us made of It.
( These assessment association are not
essentially evil and they are of very
great magnitude. They have been transacting-,
business for many year under
licenses issued to them annually by th
state of Nebraska. Th Farmer' Insur
ance company of York county Is on of
the companies mentioned, - It la small

Legislature from
People Interested in the Bill
no business outside of York county. I'ur
Ing tho last eighteen year Its tolal levies
on It members have aggregated 17 mills,
or less than II per 1.000 per annum. Dur
ing this time Its annual expenses have
averaged .less than $300, exclusive of
lossra paid. During 1914 It paid twenty
one losses promptly and without litiga
tion. Its activities have been wholly
peaceful and legitimate. Its member
are all of them entirely satisfied with it,
and yet the Impression received by them
from the attorney general's opinion a
published In the papers' is that It Is es
sentially an outlaw, Insecure and haz
ardous, especially to Its own members.
A vefy large number of : Nebraska's
cltlf.na are Interested in this opinion and
they calmly await. th further action of
the attorney general and secretary of
state. Vpcn that action, or th lack of
It, will depend a very substantial popular
opinion of them and their ability. If
they have made a mietakc, they will do
justice to the farmer's assessment as
sociations only by promptly revoking It
In tho same manner ' In ' which It was
published. . .
Xn the meantime, and In order that this
opinion may not go publicly unchallenged,
1 uk you to publish my letter.

Bill for County Unit
Control of School!.
LINCOLN. Feb.U-To the Editor of
The Bee: Much ha been said and writ
ten relative to the county unit school bill
now before th Nebraska legislature. I
deem It only fair to the bill as It I now
drafted to make certain explanations. In
the first place thla bill ha been entirely
rewritten' by th enat committee on
education and I at present a much better
bill I think than tho original draft Fur
thermore, I think all of th serious ob
jection that hav been toad against this
bill hav been removed. In tho second
place. It 1 entirely optional with any
county whether they adopt th unit sys
tem or not. It require a petition of
2fi per cent of tho legal voter ot tho
county to call an election for tbo purpose
of voting oo tho county unit system. 'he
new bill provide for a local board of
thre member who shall have control
of th local districts, elect teacher, etc.
Tho county superintendent I to be elected
at th annual school meeting by th
school elector of tba county, I '
I am willing to concede that th eoun
tle in tho eastern part of th state are
not yet ready to adopt this plan. I hav
eleven .petition from one county In the
extreme western part of th state asking
the legislature to pass this bill, which
will give n Idea ,f th Interest being
taken. In western Nebraska on thla meas
ure. If th bill passes I predict that a
majority of, tho western counties will
tak advantage of this law withlr a rea
onablo tiro. Ono of tho principal ad
vantage of thl law In western Nebraska
will b th equal distribution of all cor
poration Use in th county. . W hav
district In tha western part of tho state
along th railroads that, hav plenty of
money on a ftv mill levy; la th same
oounty wo have many district that are
levying thirty-five mill and have scarcely
money enough, to support a sevsn month'
school. At tho present time th state
1 appropriating about 175,000 each blen
nium for th aid of weak district in
northern and western Nebraska. AU

Stock. Food and the Bill -For
State License Fee.
OMAHA, Feb. 13,-To the Editor of
Th Be: Th new dispatch from Lin
coln In thla morning Beo, "Stock Food
Interest object to Regulation," la evi
dently, an Inspired one, and th remark
attributed to Senator Robertson, "that
for IS cent, thej toould make enough of
tho stuff to sellfor S3 or H," Indicates
the caliber of tho man and how little the
advocate of the bill really know about
their pet measure, and about the trade
affected.. v
Omitting consideration of the senator's
estimate, which I too ridiculous for at
tention, I desire to say that th bill la
not a stock food bill, but a bill embracing
widely any and every stock remedy.
It Impose upon each retailer In the
state a tax of S3 por annum on each
stock medicine handled by him. It doeo
not matter It he sells only CO worth of
the remedy In a year. It doesn't affect
tho actuation If th remedy. 1 a good ono
or a bad one, H I expected to pay th
S3 Just th same. It ta not a bill to
protect th farmer or stockman against
Inferior product. Th most Inferior tuff

It la simply a meaaur for revenue and
revenu measure cannot be enforced if
unreasonable or confiscatory.
Kansas had a similar law some year
ago, except that it waa even won, Ira-
posing a tax of sso on each preparation.,
Our 609 dnlera In Kansas wer con
stantly harraased and threatened with
arrest unless they paid th tax or quit
handling our product. . W applied for
and secured an injunction in federal
court restraining the state from enforcing
th collection of th tax or further mo
lesting our dealers.
In Ohio, a simitar law was declared un
constitutional more recently. Legisla
ture can tax the peopl of their own
tato about as they please, but when It
come to applying the tax to good that
come from other state, the federal court
have several worda to say. ' .
I have nothing against th proposed
meseur except that It goes nowhere and
means nothing, being of no benefit to
anyone except a source of revenue to
the stat food bureau from a few Ne
braska manufacturers, who have to stand
th brunt, while outside manufacturer
end In their good fro of tax. Yoti can't
enforce a tax on a retailer of more than
hi annual sale ot th .article taxed
amount to, but It mean a lot of trouble
and annoyance, and many dealera simply
quit handling such line of good rather
than talfe th chance ' of prosecution.
