The Massachusetts insurance report says:
In times like the present the people want
term insurance, with the privilege OF paying
the premiums in monthly installments. Men
of limited income, who might find it difficult
or impossible to pay the whole yearly
premium in one sum, would be able to meet
the comparatively small monthly payments
without inconvenience. If agents will not
work term insurance because the commissions
are SO small let some other plan be devised
for presenting 1T to the people. Cooperative
insurance will for while be an obstacle,
but there can be but one result of a contest
between the two systems
AS to term insurance there is unquestion-
ably both a demand and necessity therefor;
and most assuredly those companies that
most speedily recognize that necessity and
proceed accordingly will reap large and en-
during benefits.
As to monthly payments, no company
could carry the burden Of them without
largely increasing it's clerical force both in
home and agency offices, and to do this would
SO swell their expense account as to make
term insurance cost more than ordinary life
now does. The installment idea would have
to be worked out by policy holders forming
societies among themselves, where they could
pay monthly in the way of dues and deposit
these Dues to be used when the annual pay
ment time came round in paying their pre-
miums, and thus both difficulties would be

Life insurance has always been treated as a
mysterious thing; something that policy
holders could not understand On this point
the I,der says, and says well:
Let this mystery be done away with in the
dealing of the companies with the public, and
there need be no fear that policy holders will
not understand life insurance. They will
make 1t their business to understand 1t, ex-
actly as they make it their business to under
stand the savings bank, to understand fire
Insurance. and to understand other matters
which they recognize as to their interest.
They will understand 1t, too, in a way that
will be better protection to them against
losses by such frauds as they are now suffer-
ing from, thdf, all the State departments, and
all the satdried superintendent and commits
sioners that acere erer created. and not until
they SO understand 1t will the people be alb
solutely safe in their dealings in life insur-
ance.

Ex-Secretary of, the Treasury Bout
well, the father of the funding syndicate,
apparently regards the California COM
plaint IN, regard to the 4 per cent. loan as
an imputation on the syndicate system,
and defends the latter in 8 letter to the
Boston Advert;ser. He is of the opinion
that, fthe bank of Nevada had offered
to take $40, 100000 of 4 per cents directly
of the treasury, with commission al
lowed of one-eighth Of per cent, "un-
donbtedly the offer would have been ac-
cepted." Such a policy would have been
enainenhy BoptwehiaB however difficult
pit might have been, afterward to explain
the fact of a gift of $25, 900 to the bo-
nanza crowd, when other parties, who
subscribed with just as little trouble to
theYgovernment, got no commission at all
allowed. AS we have said before, equal
terms ought to have been offered for once
to all men, syndicate and all. Mr.. Bout
we'll recalls his own efforts at placing
popular loans, and says no power but
ENGLAND can conduct great financial ope-
rattiieons without enlisting the moral sup
port of great financial names aud institu-
tions. This is measnrably true, yet it is
useful as well as economical at times to
test the national credit and feel the pulse
of capital by offering loan directly to
the people. The partial experience in
this 4 per cent. loan proves this; there
were so millions of popular subscriptions
within month, which is a good dea!
more than the syndicate has yet placed
BY itself.
