CHOLERA IN RAISINS.

\ despatch from California says
that the wholesale grocers there are
alarmed over the danger of cholera
being brought into New York city
in raisins imported from Spain.
They have been informed that
Health Officer Smith at this port in
tends to admit all raisins picked,
but not packed, in infected districts.
Hill Brothers, importers of raisins,
said: "The Sanish crop of raisins
was picked during the past month,
and is now being shipped. None of
of it has yet arrived here, but sew
eral cargoes have already been land
ed in England, where they have
met with no opposition whatever.
l do not think there is the slightest
danger of cholera coming in raisins:
l never heard of such thing. 1
am expecting large quantities of
raisins from Spain, and | have re-
ceived no intimation from the Health
Officer that they would not be adj
mitted. This is scare worked up
by Chicago and California specula-
tors, who control the unusually large
crop grown in California this year.
They hope to get large price for it
by preventing the importation of
foreign raisins. We had no trouble
with raisins brought from the infect
ed districts last year.
Mr.. Mathew Dean, an importer,
said: "If the crop was packed in
the infected districts / should sup
pose there might be danger of
bringing over cholera in the paper,
which is certainly as dangerous as
rags. l have curtailcd my orders,
as l fear some action may be taken
against foreign raisins. You can
depend upon it that the scare is
engineered by the raisin growers in
California. ''-Nec York SIM.

STAND BY THE PRESIDENT.

1t is both the duty and the privi-
lege of all to stay up the hands of
the President in his contest with his
party over this matter. All that we
say is, that the struggle does not
appear to us to have been ended;
as witness the case of the Postmaster
in indianapolis and the loud cry of
the Virginia Democracy that the
President is not making speedy
and sure end of Republican office
holders in that State. Mr.. Cleve-
land may in the end deserve all the
praise Mr.. Curtis bestows upon him
but the testimony is not all in; it is
not time as yet to sum up and
render judgment. The hope of
every patriotic citizen is that the
President will live, and that he will
satisfy the expectations of those
who are really more concerned for
the welfare of the country than for
the supremacy of a party not pur-
suing such welfare Providence

STATEMENT.

TNHE undersigned, a Committee of Di-
Il rectors of the Equitable Life AS.
surance Society of the United States,
appointed to formulate the views of the
Board on the advantages offered by the
Society to the public, report
1st-The Society issues all the approx
ed forms of assurance, including Ordi-
nary Life, Endowment and Tontine po-
licies. 1t is immaterial to the Directors
which form of policy is taken by In
tending assurers.
2d-The Life and Endowment forms
of policy provide for annual cash divi.
dends and surrender value; are indis-
putable after three years and payable
Immediately after proof of death.
3d-Thc premiums on Tontine pO-
Life, but, while the latter is only pay.
able in the event of death, the holder of
the Tontine policy has the right to draw
the whole.of the reserve and the accu-
mulated profits IN cash at the end of a
stated period; thus, during his own life
time, after his producing years are past,
he can, without any larger premium
than on an ordinary policy, secure these
greater advantages.
4th-EXperiencc shows that the return
paid in cash on maturing Tontinc po-
licies approximates to or exceeds the
amount of premiums paid by policy
holders, so that the average cost of the
assurance will be only about the interest
on the premiums.
5th-Tontine policies, like Others, are
paid in full in the event of death at any
time during the term of the policy, and
are incOntestable after three years, and
payable Immediately after due proof of
death.
6th-Experence shows that the NOR.
tality is lower among Tontine policy.
holders, as the better lives seek this
kind of assurances, which is consider.
able source of profit.
7th-Tontinc policies will be made
non-forfeitable under the laws of the
State, If so desired at The time the as.
sUrance is effected
Sth-Ihe Tontine system is fair and
Just; its accounts are accurately kept,
separate from all other business the
funds judiciously invested and improy-
ed, and the accumulated profits faith
fully guarded and properly appoitioned.
9th-Thc Society has since its organi-
cation transacted larger amount of
new business than any other company,
while its new business for the first half
of the present year is $1,750,000 larger
than that of the first half of 1884. 1t
has Assets of 100000, 600; over $l4 ,O0O,-
600 of Surplus, and its ratio of Surplus
to Liability is greater than that of any
other company.
