Cooperative Insurance.


The growth of CO. cooperation in this
country in many lines is rapid, but IN
none is it more marked than in life in
surance. A great many fraternal orders
have been organized. some OF which
have failed, as is natural, but the princi-
pal societies are very successful in point
OF numbers and in furnishing Lille insur-
ance at minimum cost.
The largest order in point of numbers
is the Ancient Order Of United Workmen
with about $4,000 members. Next is
the Royal Arcanum with l64 GOO mem
bers, and the Maccabees with 100000
members.
There are various other societies rs
well as those connected with the Masons,
Oddfellows, Knights of Pyth:as, &c, sc.
Altogether it is estimated that over l.
000, 900 persons carry this kind OF insur-
ance and the number is Increasing very
rapidly. The Royal Arcanum is in
creasing at the rate OF q. 600 per year.
Ii is often claimed that these societies
will fail as they grow older because the
death rate will increase so that the PIE
miums will cost more than old line poll
icies. The Workmen order is y years
old and while the rate is quite high in
some jurisdictions, such as Kentucky
and California. the general average for
1892 was only 9.72 per 1000, an increase
| of only lilo OF one per cent in five
years:
The Workmen have Shat is called the
level assessment plan, that is, no mattei
at what age man ia admitted, he pays
the same rate as all others.
The other companies are organized on
the graded assessment plan, the younger
members pay less, the older members
more, as in the Royal Arcanum men,
Der entering at the age OF 21. pays on d
5000 policy SI.0o for each assessment
80 long as he remains in the order. II
entering at the age OF 50 he would pay
sl.s8. at 40 s. 06. at 45 S2.5s, at so Ss.26
One reason these societies are able to
maintain q low rate of assessment is the
care taken to admit only healthy MEM
bers, but the main facter is in the great
numbers who enter the orders pay as
sessments for years and drop out before
death.
It might appear, at first thought, tLat
these persons had lost their money SO
paid in, but this is not so, for they had
the safeguard of insurance SO long as
they did carry it.
The time when man particularly
needs insurance is while his family is
growing up. After they are grown and
| taking care OF themselves, many men
drop their insurance having received the
security during the period Of life when
I it is most needed.
This is shown by the. list of death
claims proven, in April, in the Roya
Arcanum, no one having died who was
over 50 years of age. though the order i:
Is years old and admits members up te
55 years of age.
The deaths in that month we're as foi'
| lows;

This shows also why the WoGkmen
hold out so vel! for their returns exhibit
similar features
That there is no foundation fcr he
statement that fraternal socieiies always
die, is shown from The TACT that in Great
Britain there are 81 societies OF this kind
still fiourishing which were organized
between 1867 AID 1893, one organized in
1881, aud founded between 1so0 and
1887.
The Royal Arcapum of which few
figures have been giyea above is new on
this coast but has been in vigorous ex-
istence Is years, and is at present out
growing ary other similar order in the
world.
Its very carefully and systematically
governed, and seems bound in few
years to be the leading order in poin. oil
numbers.
A council has recently been formed in
Albany, and its officers will cheerfuily
answer all inquiries as far as they are
able. We detract from no other similar
society, for there should be no rivalry ss

and prosper. but We believe We can fully

Washington Letter
WASHINGTON, May 20. 1895.

WASHINGTON, May 20. 1895.
Hon. william McAdoo, Assistant Sec
retary of the Navy. is finding it no easy
task to resist the democratic pressure
that is being brought to bear upon him
to head the New Jersey gubernatorial
ticket this year, and his consent to make
the race will probably be eecure6 iC the
near future. Among the prominent
New Jersey democrats who have been
in consultation with Mr.. McAdoo is Sem
ator Smith, who says New Jersey is GO
ing democratic again and that 1t will
stay democratic.
A lot OF very sloppy stuff has been
written about what the administration
intended to do about Admiral Meade's
very serious infraction Of Naval regula-
tious, among the rest that his request
for retirement aould be refused until ai-
ter he lad been punished. The o-igina-
tors OF mozt of these stories are entirely
ignorant On The subject. The granting
of AemifaI Meade's application for re-
tireEant, under the Law giving officers
who have served forty years that privil-
ege. hasn never been matter of doubt,
and could not be. unless he had been
guilty Of crime calling for his disbon-
orable discharge from the Navy; conse-
quently he eill certainly pass from the
active TO the retired list OF the Navy.
Another story spread by the ignorant is
that once on the retired list Admiral
Meade could not be punished by the Sec
retary of the Navy. He is just as much
amenable to The orders OF the Secretary
of the Macy on tue retired list as he was
on the active list, only that he cannot
be ordered to perform active duty, except
in time of war and then it must be done
by the President with the advice and
consent OF the Senate.
The Supreme Court decision OF the in
come tax question was not surprising.
1t could not very well have been other
wise under the circumstances.

The Most Delightful to be Conceiv-
ed of.

G0 O1h
In view of the approaching season
when people HE away to seaside and
mountain the following from the Walla
Walla Statesman is of particular interest.
1t is peculiarly readable, as it is full OF
poetry as we'll as fact. Col. 4. ]. Parker,
the author fairly outdoes himself liz his
encomiums upon the Yaquina country.
Read what he says:
''The recent warm weather already
sets people to thinking where they viii
spend the heated term. keep cool and
enjoy tbs good things of life. To those
whose predictions are for the seaside
there is no place on the Pacific coast
which offers.so many manifold adyant-
ages as Yaquina Bay where the ever
restless waves of the Pacific ocean roll in
upon the sand without an obstacle. 1t
is the most delightful and beautiful
country the mind of man can conceive,
embracing not only scenery of woodland,
hill and vale but for those who enjoy
bathing and good living, The bathing
is the safest on the coast, the deadly un-
dertow o; which we read every year be-
ing unknown, no fatality ever having oc.
Cured there; while the living is some
thing that can only be experienced, en-
Sracing all lllinds of deep sea fish, fresh
rom the cool depths of the soundless sea,
and oysters, mussels, crabs, rock oysters,
brook trout from the shallow waters of
the bay and beach, and the icy cool
streams which is such characteristic Of
the country. 1t is the only seaside resort
where ,,ozen different varieties of fresh
fish can be INDUCED in at any time, wild
game, such as venison, grouse, quail and
pheasant are too common almost to be
even mentioned. All this combined
with cheapness makes it less expensive
than to remain at home, and another
advantage is its easy access from all
parts.
The country there has of late years en-
ioyed the reputation of being the healthi-
est known, and many one who have
gone here expecting to die are now ro-
bust and hearty, hoping to live two score
years longer. There are no extremes of
heat or cold. When the great orb of day
rises in the east 1t is met by sea fog
from the west which takes the place OF
louds in tempering the great heat Of
ummer for two or three hours, making
xistenee itself a pleasure. In the months
June, July and August there are no
louds in the sky, and only the dew of
night, which is thu mist Of Gods tears,
falls upon the earth and feeds the flowers.
here is no land filed With milk and
oney, no forests half so deep and cool,
no streams so crystal cool and full OF fish,
no grasses green as those within he.
fields. Blending into the peaceful sea
are white and gl;stening sands spangled
with agates, crystals and pebbles of the
rainbow hues. Whea tired of the sea q

There Is good deal of discussion over
the appointment OF David Campbell as
chief engineer OF the Portland fire de-
partment, on account of Campbell at one
time having done some fighting. He
saw his mistake in entering that field
and quit it. He is undoubtedly splen-
did fireman and will serve the people of
Portland faithfully. His fighting record
is given as follows: About ten years ago
a personal matter between Mr.. Campbell
and James Reilly was settled in the
prize ring, and Campbell won. Then he
whipped a man named Lawler, and Mr..
John Z, Dempsey. subsequently middle
