Insurance commissioners and authorities on Insurance matters from many states assembled In the capital of the Old Dominion today to hold the thlrty-eiglit,- h yearly conference of the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners. An address of welcome by Governor Claude A. Swanson was followed by a response by the vice president. Commissioner Reau E. Folk, of Tennessee. The balance of the opening session waa taken up by the address of the president, Insurance Commiasluner George H. Adams, of New Hampshire, the report of committee on credentials and the announcement by the president of appoint men tsto fill vacancies on committees. This afternoon addresses were delivered by President Darwin P. Kingsley, president of the New York Life Insurance oempany, on "The Future of Life Insurance," aiid Insurance Commissioner B. F. Crouse, of Maryland, who discussed Life Insurance Legislation Adopted In Various States Within tha Past Two Years." During the convention, which will last three days, addresses will be made by the insurance commissioners of New York, Colorado, North Dakota, Massachusetts and other states. An ' Important report will be that of the committee on standard forms of fire Insurance policies. The report of the committee on laws and legislation will be pre aented this afternoon, and will likely lead to a spirited discussion. MAY STIR UP A HORNETS' NEST tion real lie that without the assistance of the residents of the slate of Utah the fair will be more or less of a fixxle. It is to the farmers, stock growers and manufacturers of Utah they look to impress the stranger from the East and the coast with the iHisslbilities of this great state. General Passenger Agent I). E. Burley of the Short Line, together with his associates oil the Salt Iaike route, the Rio Grande Western and other lines centering In Salt Lake, affirm that never before has there been sueh a tide of tourist travel flowing through Utah, and It goes without saying that all who are in town during conference week will make It a point to visit the fair grounds. It Is on the curds that tlielr cyts will be opened and that they will return to their homes East and West and spread the glad tidings that Utah can produce the flnest fruit and grain anywhere; that her mines are veritable bonanzas, her live stock equal to any and free from disease. All of this will help Utah, and Incidentally will attract the aettler and the capitalist with money to Invest. The directors of the Utah State Fair association have Issued an Invitation to all patriotic and progressive cl tt sens to put their shoulder to the wheels and push the publicity wagon along. From all section a of Utah reports are being received that exhibits are coming and that the senders are after tha priaea offered. There la considerable enthusiasm all along the line. J. H. Seely, state senator from Sanpete county, was among the first to get enthusiastic and promptly placed at the disposal of the management hla fat steer Uncle John's barbecued beef sandwiches will be handed out to all the good visitors. Then others have fallen Into line with spec ial premiums to help the good work along and stimulate competition. Among those who have donated are Z. C. M.

The Manufacturers and Merchants' association also blue ribbona for often twenty-thre- e Utah-magoods, a list of which can be secured from the secretary on appll cation. In all then will be sixteen different departments, each under special auper-visoIn the greatly . enlarged buildings that have been erected recently. Arrangements have also been made to display the entln exhibit with which Utah carried off the honors at the recent National Irrigation congress at Sacramento.

The question of state wide prohibition has also played an Important part In the camiialgn, and present Indications are that Oklahoma will take Its place In the galaxy of states aa a prohibition commonwealth. The constitution forbids for twenty-on- e years the sale of liquor In that part of the state now forming the Indian Territory, and submits to the people the question as to whether the provision shall be extended to Include the western portion of the new state. The campaign has been carried on In a strenuous manner by both the wets and the drya, wlfh party llnea obliterated. Oklahoma's constitution Is the most radical organic law ever adopted by any state, and haa been termed by William Jennings Bryan aa "superior to the national constitution." It was drafted by 10o Democrats and twelve Republicans, the former largely representing the agricultural and labor Interests of the new state. It provides for the strictest regulation of railroads and other corporations ever attempted by any state. 17, 1907 LINE EORN UP .
