No gerrymander for Republican ad-
vantage is ever rebuked by Republi-
can leaders or organs. There is Ohio
for example, close State, which has
been carried by the Democrats three
times in the last ten years. The Re-
publican Legislature last winter re-
gerrymandered the Congressional dis
tricts to as to give that party fifteen,
and perhaps sixteen, Of the twenty
one districts. But as carrying cleo
tons by bribery when necessary is
done for the ultimate glory Of God,
according to the Harrison Wanamaker
Pharisaism, 10 ge,rymandering for the
same party is evidently excused by its
leaders as device to promote good
government-=by giving them the on

This musical farce which is to be the

easily distances all competitors in
laughing features, and comes to usthis

risibilities Of the amusement seeking
public that have eclipsed all its records
of the past seven seasons. The charac-
ier Of Jiles Button which Mr.. Kendall

great financial results attained policy holders
the Mutual life shown the confused agents of rival
companies they exclam YES but they can't do it again.
They willing admit that the dividends paid by the
ua Life Insurance Company of New York all its
policies the largest paid by any company similar
forms of Insurance. but it is claimed that the Mutual Life
not duplicate its former dividend results policies issued
now. Let us see:
On Policy No 1868 issued November r 1870 at age
twenty-five for $4,000 annual premium $9945 ordinary life
PLAN the end of first twenty the dividend additions
amounted to making the Insurance value
death claim which is 64 40 than the Of prem
ums paid improved at 10 per compound interest.
On Policy No. 24, $685. issued September 1871 at age
twenys for $4,000 annual premium s0200 ordinary life
plan the dividend additions 1891 the end the
twenty amounted to $lS47o0 raising the policy
@ 90 and being $42O5 better than all the premiums paid
proved interest per
years.
Thus it appears from the records of The Mutual Life
Company of New York that the first twenty years
dividends ending in and 1884, declared policies
1870 and 1871 have been favorable those declared
first twenty policies issued in 1S43 1t is therefore,
quite reasonable to that the future dividends this
Company policies issued the twenty dstribu
ton pan will be good as those realized in the first twenty
by the holders of policies issued in the early years the
Company the old reversonary addition pan which
dividends declared every policy
at their insurance value.
Since 1890 the Mutual Lfes dividends have grad
ual increase every year.

WILLIAM L. WILSON'S EXPOSITION
S OF THECHICAGO TARIFF PLANK.


81 OF THECHICAGO TARIFF PLANK.
He has written an explanation Of
the tariff plank for the North american
Reuiew, from which the following ex-
tract is taken:
1.-The temper and the courage Of the
party are nightly different in 1892
from what they were in 1884, what
was necessary prudence then would be
cowardice now. The convention re-
sponded fully and heartily to the feel
ing OF the party it represented. 1t
means that there should be nothing
ambiguous about the party's attitude
to that cause, and that the statement
Of its fundamental principle should
not be overlaid with cumulative limita-
tons. And in all this the convention
was right. After the Mills bill and the
special bills passed by the present
House, it is superhuous TO assure the
people that the Democratic party will
proceed carefully and conservatively
in reducing the tariff. In view of the
immense increase in our annual ex-
penditures, and the steady. swelling Of
our pension list, it is equally nnneces-
sary to repeat that taxes collected at
the custom. house must remain the
chief source Of our revenue. Ease and
simplicity Of collection viii always give
a preference in indirect taxes collected
through a tariff of duties on important
articles. The power Of the govern
ment to tax an article for revenue is
seized by the private interest to tax a
competition for out Of the market, or
to handicap him in his efforts to com
piete in the market. A system of di-
rect taxation would effectually check
such extravaganza as led to the Bill
lion Dollar Congress. and would pre-
vent that partnership between the
government and great private inter-
ests that is rife with political scandals
and with unjust burdens to the people.
But such system was doubtless i'm
practicable in the beginning, and
seems scarcely less so now. We are
called upon as the urgent duty of the
hour, and Of all time, to guard against
the perversion Of our tariff system that
has ripened into Mckinley bill.-From
the wrong that now Expresses us under
that bill we must work back as rapid
ly as We can to a system where duties
viii be levied for purposes of revenue
oaly, and having reached that reform,
we shall in due time so amend our
tariff system as to purge it more
aud more Of private extortion and Of
inequality of burden. Nor can the
Democratic party any longer deriye
strength from pandering TO the delu-
sion that protective duties can in any
way directly benefit labor. The intel
ligent laboring man. whose vote is his
own, knows better perhaps than any
