The Connecticut Mutual.

The annual statement of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, and President Gfeene's annual report to its members are printed elsewhere this morn ing.
 The assets have now crossed $60, ,0O0, ,OOO and are almost 61. .OO0, ,00O, having increased over $1 1000, 900 during the year. Indeed, the company has had g year of healthy growth in all directions. It's surplus, al- ready over $6, ,000 ,000, has increased $367,- 744, and the total amount of insurance has increased nearly 8, 1000, GOO and reaches the immense figure of $157, 737, ,302. And every body knows this will all be paid when 1t Is due.
 The strength of the Connecticut Mutual is something people try to measure soms- times, but they never question 1t It's as- agement Is clean and capable. The real estate inventmsnts of the Con- neoticut Mutual were criticised years ago, but since 1879 the company has sold real ! estate that cost it $S,907, 719 and has got for it s10, 553. .625, thus gaining $1. .645, ,906 out of what some croaksrs eaid must bring heavy logs. The test of all thess things is | time, and that Is the test that the Connecti- cut Mutual is conducted to meet. A most interesting and suggestive change | in public opinion is indicated by the com | ment that is heard upon this company. Some years ago it's ''conssl vatism" WAS l thrown out rather as term of reproaoh in various quarters. To-day that same con- | setvatism is cited as the foundation for the faith which is everywhere felt in it and it's management. The course of the company has been the game all along. Colonel Greene
 has his policy and bis ideals. He has every
 year explained fully to polioyholders and
 the public his notions of how the business | of life insurance should be conducted, and
 he has conducted 1t that way. Nov he
 6nds the drift of sentiment his way, and
 the company cited as an illustration oi
 strength and safety.
 It is big enough to bs independent; il
 takes only such business ss is worth taking
 it meets all its obligations; it divides {
 yearly increasing dividend among its in-
 sured; its policy draws to it the more con
 servative people, who are consequently by
 their nature the better risks; and it is daily
 fulfilling the purposes for which it is char
 tered and is sure to do so as long as its
 present policy holds.

The Late pr. Hueps Personality.

In commenting on the death of Dr. Henry W. Buei of Litchfeld, 'Obssrver" writes In New York Sunday World, Probably not doctor in Connecticut, certainly none living in 8 country town, has had wider acquaintance in the pro- fession of the state than Dr. Buel, and in no personality has there been blended a gentler temper, more kindness of soul, public spirit and professional enthusiasm. He belonged peculiarly to that told echool" of doctors which we are go fast losing, as the recent deaths of Dr Levi Ives of New Haven, and Dr. W. w. Welch of Norfolk, so painfully remind us. It is possible that our younger doctors, medicines, save more lives, but somehow those old school men, with their hosry wisdom, their kindly presence in the sick room, and their air if not their realities of healing science filled unique place in cur Yankee life and civilization"

In the eastern newspapers and IN the press
of other sections we frequently come upon snch
statements as this: 'What the silver lunatics
want is cheap money" This is perfectly true,
and natural, and reasonable, but the impression
that the gold maniacs trying to create is that
the phrase ''cheap money" means deprecated
money. but it means nothing of the sort.
When money is scarce and interest high,
prices are low. Low prices mean dear money.
This result is brought about either by an actual
depletion or scarcity of currency, or by an ap-
probation of the standard in which the currency
is measured In this country today we have no
actual scarcity of currency, but money is dear
because the demand for gold-the standard in
which the currency IS measured-is constantly
making the yellow metal appreciate in value. AS
the standard increases in value, the dollar that
represents it becomes constantly dearer-that is
to say, it buys more and more property and the
products of human labor
When we say that a man sells his property
or the products of his labor for so much money,
we do not accurately describe the transaction
We shall get a clearer view of the matter if we
say that these property owners and producers go
into the market to buy money to pay their debts
or to engage in other transactions. When we
say that the prices of products have fallen
really mean that money has increased in value as
compared with this property or these products.
ing money with 10 pounds of cotton Today he
can buy fraction over IS cents in money with
10 pounds of cotton. Our readers can compare
The Goodland republic. [volume] (Goodland, Kan.) 1891-1907, 1893-12-01

other products with the money rise for them
selves We have selected cotton for the reason
that cotton is more sensitive to the appreciation
of money than any other products, although
wheat is not far behind it.
When money is dear or scarce it is more
profitable to employ it in call loans and note
shaving than TO place it in business ventures
or industrial enterprises; and the tendency to
hoard it has depressing effect upon all business
except that of money lending and note shaving.
Shylock is in his glory when money is dear.
In Short the cheap money which the gold
maniacs cry out against would restore to prop
erty its true value, give to products their fair
prices and bring prosperity to the people and to
all forms of business
The people want money cheap that it
will bring larger returns when invested in bust
ness and industrial enterprises than when loaned
out on the Shylock plan.
Already thoughtful Americans are waking
up to the fact that, unless something at present
unknown turns up, a time is in store for them
when the precious metal will be at premium,
and what such thing as that means can be best
imagined by carrying the thought across the
Panama sthmus In 1891 America used for in
dustrial purposes nearly $50, 900, 900 worth of
gold. At that date the total output of the stan
dard metal was only S 80, 900, 900. In 1892 the
arts consumed very much more than in the pre-
Vious year without corresponding increase in
the output. IT, however, the arts consume two
thirds of the product, what about coinage? Will
not Americans open their eyes?

The most important order made by
Mr.. Bissen is the one which declar ea
postmasters shall devote their time to
duties of their Office. In this connection.
he states that the time has passed when
a postoff1ce appointment should be held
as political sinecure.
In commenting on the 1913 removals
made by the last administration in the
railway mail service, Mr.. Bissell says:
''This was the heaviest blow ever dealt
the civil service law since the effect of it
was to debar experienced clerks from
the service and to protect in their po-
sitions large number of inexperienced
new appointses. It is not to be wonder
ed that the employees thus summarily
discharged regard the law ITSELF as a
hateful obstruction to fair treatment and
justice. This sentiment has recently
been emphasized in the case of many
who hoped for reinstatement upon dis
covering the intervening four years have
so far advanced their ages that they are
der the age limit"
In this connection, however, it is to
be observed that of the 1000 or more
persons appointed, less than one-half
were in the service March z, 1892.

Notwithstanding lack of needed ap-
preparations to carry on the affairs of
the service and the change of admins
tration, the standard of efficiency of the
service has not only been maintained,
but h as been raised over the preceding

The Removal OF the Postmaster at Topeka
Is So Considered.
TOPEKA, Nov. 26.-The removal of
Martins man as postmaster at Topeka
and the appointment of an admin1stra-
ton Democrat is the political sensation
OF the state. The friends of President
Cleveland, who claim to have his conf
dence, say it not only means direct
slap at the Popuists who male Martin
senator, but that the presidents friends
in the senate will complete Martins
humiliation by unseating him as soon as
congress convenes, on the grounds that he
did notreceive the necessary majority in
the joint legislative convention. He re-
ceived u votes. So being majority.
Leading Democrats claim to have
this assurance from Washington, and
the opinion is entertained by Populists.
Secretary of State Osborne said he had
information which confirmed this rumor.
If Martin is unseated il viii be on the
ground of no election. and Governor
Lewelling will have to convene the leg
islature to elect. That body stands poll
tically 70 Rel ublicans, 78 Populists and
I'VE Democrats and one Independent
Republican. Two Republican members
having Left the state, the i've Democrats
would hold balance OF power.
