seductive and speculative methods which
have beguiled others and stuck to straight
and safe insurance. Such figures as these
talk strongly: Net assets, $55,12S,56S; re-

policy holders in 1887 S5,414,3Ol; surplus, So

THE THIRD PARrY's CANDIDATE.

Botkin, the Methodist minister who
has turned politician, aspires for the grip
ON the NJ. E. church of Kansas hereto
fore so firmly maintained by Bernard
Kelly. Kelly staid with the party that
gave Kansas prohibition and Botkin
thinks he sees his chance in the third
party move. Preachers in politics as
rule succeed in downing themselves
more frequently and surely than IN
downing anybody else. Botkin ought to
revive his organ which he started at
Cheney, for the reason if he does his
duty by his church and earns his salary
he can't put too much politics into his
sermons or take up too much OF his
pulpit time on delivering himself upon
the street corners.
We sometimes think that one OF the
great needs of this age is ministry OF
meek and lowly, unselfish, non-selfseeh-
ing Christians. who would devote their
lives and talents more for the cause OF
the Master and for the cause of drifting
humanity; giving less attention to their
own good clothes, own high. living and
own political and ecclesiastical prefer
ment.

LIFE OF BEN HARRISON.

Gen. Lew Wallace, we hear has remov-
ed to Indianapolis, and is busily engaged
writing biography of his old friend,
Gen. Ben Harrison. Rarely has so happy
a combination been known as that re-
sulting in the issue of this work. Gen.
Lew Wallace. known the world over as
the author or .'Ben Hur," is one of Gen.
Harrison's lifelong and trusted friends,
and is also a distinguished soldier, a
trained statesman, and a diplomat of
high national reputation. His long and
intimate acquaintance with his dis
tinguished subject will enable him to
prepare rapidly an authentic and deeply
interesting biography. His large
experience in national and Internal
ional affairs fits him to treat under
standingly and ably of General Harri-
sons superb record as statesman, and
clearly to unfold the principles held BY
him respecting good government, and
the weighty issues at stake in the present
great contest. Gen. Wallace at first de-
clined this task but upon the urgent So
icitation of many eminent men OF the
party. and Gen. Harrison's assurance
that everything needful should be placed
at his disposal, so as 70 make it the strict
" authentic. and only authorized biog-
raphy. he yielded to the call. and has
agreed to coulplate the work for publ
cation by Hubbard Brothers Of Philadel-
phia, early in August.

AND STILL THEY COME.

Mr.. Charles S. Higgins, of Brooklyn,
the great soap manufacturer, has always
been Democrat, and, on demand, has
gone down deep into his pocket to help
the party, bnt this year he says:
shall vote for Harrison and Morton,
and not only vote but work Tor them.
am a business man and my interests and
those of the whole country need protection.
Should Cleveland be elected, my factory
and hundreds of others would have to close
and the men who have earned livelihood
in this business for years would have to
find some other work.
With myself, and hundreds of thousands
of workingmen it is simple question OF
whether we shall vote with the Democrats
and 90 out of business or vote the Repub-
lean ticket and relain the prosperity we
have heretofore experienced and at present
enjoy. / am convinced that, II Cleveland
is elected, free trade will drive us out of
business.
Mr.. Higgins says wages in the soap
business in England average Sass a
week and here they average so. The
present duty barely enables the soap
business to live and yet it employs 10000
persons.
Mr.. Joseph B. Carpenter, of Pough-
keepsie, n. Y, who stumped New York
for Cleveland four years ago and who has
been elected mayor of Poughkeepsie by
the Democrats, has come out for Harri-
son and Morton on the ground of pro-
lection against free trade and has taken
the stump in their behalf.
