LIFE lSsURAScE.-There is something of Aut.
ter among the thousands who hold life insurance
policies, because of the failure of several London
companies which were regarded as among the
most substantial and reliable in the world. The
last failure is the Royal Albert Life Insurance
company of England, whereby the provision
made for $4,000 families was suddenly found to
have vanished into thin air. What adds To the
Consideration are the distrusttul reports issued
by the Insurance departments OF New York and
Massachusetts relative to life insurance We
think 1t will eventually be found that the vari-
Gus new "plans' which life insurance comma
nies have concocted to increase their business.
by Offering extraordinary inducements to the
people, are the most inflated kind of speculative
bubbles. sure 10 burst after a while, with disas-
trous effects to the people. Too many and great
risks are being taken by these companies, the
SAME as there once was by the FIRE insurance
companies. Money will not reproduce itself
two, or three or four times, as the life Insurance.
companies try to make it, by their various
schemes to enlarge the number of their policy
holders. Theremust come an end 10 this sort
of speculation and perhaps the beginning OF
the end is upon us Sacramento Record.

Our Next District Judge.


Who shall be our next District Judge Is a
question which ought TO excite considerable in
terest in the minds of the voters of this county.
Il is matter that ought to be well considered,
fairly and without prejadice. When We remem-
Der that law and order, good government and
the we'll being of society incompatible with
a dishonest corrupt judiciary. the Importance OF
the coming election will be appreciated and un-
derstood. For Judge of this judicial district we
have two candidates presented for. our considera-
ton Hon. E. Garter, of Shasta, present incum-
bent, and Hon. A. N. Rosborough of Siskiyou.
Judge Garter is known to almost every man ip
this district, and be is known only as straight
forward, concientious man, an able jurist and
an impartial Judge. His record on the bench is
unimpeachable, and his decisions command in
fuence and respect. Were it left to the bar of
this district, Judge Garter's reelection would
be beyond doubt. Of Hon. A. NJ. Rosborough,
his merits or dement's, we know but little, and
have heard but little. We have heard and
known of number of able lawyers in Siskiyou
county, but we never have heard or known his
honor to be classed as such. He may be an able
he most certainly labors under the disadvantage
of never having made it manifest The only
ground upon which the election of Rosborough
be urged is that he is a Democrat. This
district is undoubtedly close upon party vote,
and the party which uses the most exertion to
bring out its vote will be almost certain to win,
if politics decide between the candidates for the
judgeshp. We hope, however, that the charac-
te: of this election will be carefully weighed and
considered by the people, and that they will re-
member that the Democracy are responsible for
whatever of politics may enter into the contest.
Judge Garter We know is an able man and pre-
eminently qualified for the position. Let every
voter ponder we'll before be casts his ballot, and
select, to the best of his information and belief,
the best man. In that case Judge Garter is sure
to be chosen. The candidates presented By the
Republican party for the Judicial election are
certainly free from all objection on the score of
ability and cannot be said to be obnoxious as
politicians. Can the same be said of their oppo-
nents? Do they not base their claims for the
suffrage of the people solely upon the fact that
they are the Democratic nominees? For these
reasons Republicans should support our candi-
date for District Judge, and, by united effort in
the October election, teach our political oppo-
nents that temporary causes of dissatisfaction
will not prove sufficient to give them perma-
nent lease of power.
