4 STAB At LIFE INSURANCE.

Some discussion has been provoked by Part
Second of the Annual Report of Insurance
Commissioner Stedman of Connecticut. Part
First of this Report, in which the Com
missioner airs his dislike of the NcwYork Sur
plus Law for fire insurance companies, had not
impressed us with the belief that his studies,
in that direction at least, were very profound
But it was scarcely to be expected that SO
grave an interest as the life insurance of Con-
necticut would be discussed by the State Off
cal in charge of it, in manner that seems
only calculated to do it injury. After a state
mcnt of the business done in life insurance III
the state, and an estimate of its falling of
during the past year, the attack begins with
the remarkable statement: There is no bust
mess under the sanction of the laws of the
Gland, which has been SO largely built up on
"dcception rs this. Promises have been boldly
"made which i'll the nature of things cannot
"be fulfilled and expectations raised which
"can end only in disappointment" After
rasping this sore spot with free hand, the
report proceeds to show the weak point in
" the whole system" 1t is that the affairs of
"A company may be "at the final disposal of
missionaries and spendthrfts." Here and there
throughout inc report tHtIt are tliON IA Ill IT,
marks indicating want of faith in the man
agcment of the companies. The Commissioner
thinks that the votes of individual directors
should be recorded on every investment of
assets; he says " this would create personal
responsibility in each case which is now
"wholly wanting, and be most salutary in its
"eilectsr Speaking of the division of surplus
among policy holders, he hings this slur upon
life insurance management in general: A
competition among the companies to pay diyi-
"dends, so called, will probably prevent this
surplus from increasing, and il is not desir-
sable that it should increase if the securities
shield by the companies are what they are repre-
"sented 10 be-"
There is, of course, no special occasion for
this onslaught. The statistics and statements
which make the body Of the report refuto the
idea of a general bad investment of their as
sets by insurance companies The. Commits
sioner is not, however, wholly given over to
faut-fndng. He admits that the business of
the companies has been conducted with com

When Gov. Allen and Senator Thurman read
fine platform of the Minnesota Democrats they
must have regretted, if they care anything for
their personal comfort, that they did not live a
little further west than Ohio. On the DIST of
the present month the Democratic Executive
Committee of their state have decided that they
shall open the campaign by making speeches
at Gallipolis in favor Of reputation and infia-
ton. How they are to do it, and how they are
ever TO look their friends in the face after they
have done ii are questions which We are happy
10 know it is their part to answer, not ours.
But they have undertaken the desperate and
thamkless task not only of accepting the Ohio
platform, but making speeches for it, and we
presume they viii ill the contract to the best of
their ability. Perhaps they will assure the
people that platforms are all nonsense; per-
haps they will skip all the important points of
the Columbus declaration, and talk about the
centennial, or the District Ring, or the rifle
match, or comic sections, or the Keely motor,
or some other agreeable topic of the time
possibly they will try to explain away their
own record of honesty and common sense it
is their look out and we leave the difficulty
to them.
The Convention at st. Paul certainly has
not smcothed the way for them. 1t has gone

tate from policy of maudlin and sentimental
philanthropy to one Of unreasOning ana
brutal severity. 1t has been experimental
with by incOmpetents, and used Tor
purposes of gain by unprincipled ad-
venturers, and between the Government
and these its helpless wards, there has
been almost continuously set of vampires
who took the bounties of the Government TO
enrich themselves while they stood by
and saw the Indians starvc, or drove
them into hOstilities by Outrages ana
frauds of the most glazing descrip-
ton. There has been no craftsmanship, httlc
wisdom, and less honesty in the handling oil
this very serious question. If anything can DC
done to draw these poor savages niue
nearer to civilization and to condition oil
self-sustcnance i if only To save them
from the clutches Of the agent ana
contractor-it will be n great gain for the Gov
eminent as well as for the Indians. Greater
than can be measured by the mere amount oil

mendable economy. Where he lays aside the
broadside form of attack and directs his shot
at particular companies, he has OF course
opened the way for reply, and the Connect
cut newspapers have been busy with rejOin-
dcrs The point which he arrives at in his
concluding paragraphs, is that the State should
exercise more control over these corporations.
and throw additional safeguards around the
interests committed to their care.
The damage which such document may ef
feet far outweighs its possible usefulness In
surance companies as class are sensitive TO
attacks upon their good faith and manage
ment. Hundreds of people at time Of gen
eral depression in business, are thinking as
their insurance premiums fall due, Can af-
ford to 90 on with this ?" A few words Of
Encouragement may decide the question in tho
negative. Even the careless essay of some
newspaper writer, whose only aim il to be SEN
sational may turn the scale, though not con-
tanning a fact or argument worth moments

before him, and declares that they Indicate

The political situation in Massachusetts, with
reference to the Fall elections, is decidedly
complicated by the rather demorallzed condi-
ton of the Republican party The rcvcrscs OF
last wear seem TO have scattered its leaders
and encouraged the spirit of independence
among voters who have heretofore followed
without question the dictation of Conventions.
Federal Office holders are no longer control
ling element, Gen. Butler, for a time at least,
is inactive. and the PiohibitiOnists and anti
Prohibitioni,ts have not yet seen the necessity
for COMPROMISE if they would secure victory
for a Republican ticket. The Democratic
leaders, on the other hand, have held their
forces well in hand, and are quite willing to
fry another campaign with Gov. Castor as
their candidate 1t is evident that unless
something is done speedily to secure harmony
in the Republican ranks the Democrats and
Liberal Republicans will carry the day. a

The gathering of the crews at Saratoga at
fords room for comparisons and predictions
which could not have been made so lntelil-
gently heretofore. In a letter printed to-day
our correspondent, after sketching tine points
of the Dartmouth crew, reports the popular
Judgment as to the chances OF the several
crews now on the lake. From this statement
it would appear that Yale Is the fayorte at
present, with the friends of Columbia and
Harvard disputing the place, while the claims
of some other crews have not yet been fairly
passed upon. The splendid physique of the
Dartmouth men challenges admiration II 1t
does not give assurance of victory; while the
Bowdoin crew, another late arrival, exhibit
good points, but give little promise of being
formidable competitors with crews OF more
skill and practice.

The wreck of the United States steamer
Saranac of which we now have full official
advces will be the subject of official investi-
CATION, aud until the verdict of the court OF
inquiry is known popular judgment as to the
responsibility for the disaster may well be
suspended. There is no indication, however,
that Capt Queen could have saved his ship
from the violence of the whirlpool. The most
interesting part of his official report is that
referring to the generous aid extended to our
shipwrecked mariners by Admiral Cochiane
and other officers of the British navy. The
Admiral not only sent a ship laden with pro-
visions and clothing for their relief, but fol-
lowed, himself, with apparatus to be used, If
possible, in raising the Saranac, and did all in
his power to make the American officers and
sailors comfortable. For these kind attentions
the representatives Of Her MajcSty's Govern
ment deserve and will receive the thanks of
our whole people.

We are still to have the fostering Harlem
Flats and their vile OdOrs. The responsibility
for this horrible thing in midsummer Is now
assumed Ivy our Aldermen. They have refused
