A New Kind Of Insurance.

This might well be called the insur-
ancc age. and now that a company has
been organized at San Francisco for
the purpose Of furnishing insurance
against unavoidable loss of employ
ment. a man can be insured against
most anything under the sun. This
new concern proposes to pay its policy
holders three -fourths of the amount of
his salary for a period Of six months or
less while he is looking for new en-
ployment. 1t has strong financial
backing, and the promoters believe that
they can transact business on basis
of averages and possibilities, figured
safe as any insurance.
There is a grave question as 20
whether or not this kind of insurance
will be practicabR.e In insurance
against accident. death, fire, and the
destruction of property by the -ele-
ments. there is comparative uni
| formity in the chances of loss among
all classes Of men. but we fear that it
will be different in this insurance
against losing employmentt If none
but that great army of honest. hard
working laboring men, with families
| dependent upon them, the class with
whom faithfulness, honor and duty are
ever foremost in their minds. were t.
be given this new kind of insurance, it
would be of great value to the country
at large as well as to the individual
but it will be hard to distinguish be-
| tween such men and those w ln gWould
take the insurance because they re-
allied their positions We're in jeopardy
and who would be influenced by dis.
honest motives. -sa ~. -+7 -.-
There are too many men who would
like to commit some little wrong tina
would deprive them of their position 81

President Hyde of Bowdoin College
has created some excitement IN the re-
ligious world by his article in the New
World of Chicago on the "Reorganiza-
ton Of the Faith" which aims to be a
conception of the present needs of the
day The president, who is admitted
to be one of the most original thinkers
Of the day, fearlessly criticises the
commonly accepted :. beliefs of the
Christian world The current creed of
Christendom he declares to be chaos
of contradictions. facts and fancies, in
buttons and superstitions, bound in one
bundle of tradition which the honest
believer finds hard to swallow whole
and which the earnest doubter is re
luctant to reject completely. y Presil
dent Hyde claims that this is the pres
ent state of religious belief. Then later
on in his atthle<he <asserfss taa the
zone real and unaIterablS tenet of
faith. the essential upon which all
creeds should harmoniously unite. is
the Pei son of Christ" lions Herald
alludes very favorably to the article
and says that in it President Hyde
has discovered the fundamental prin-
ciple of Christianity. by the side Of
which all minor details and differences
in churches are insignificant" If the
view which President Hyde takes. 81
the reorganization of the faith and ths
present needs of the churches is cor
rect it would seem that there is a.
least a basal fact or belief upon which
all Christians of every name mign
. unite.

that they could take a six months
vacation every summer at the expense
of the insurance company. and it would
be rather difficult to separate these
men from those honest men who would
take the insurance in good faith. Even
should it be found possible to bar out
the dishonest applicants for this insur-
ance. it is doubtful if such a concern
could stand the test of hard times, and
should the Democrats ever again sue
coed in securing control of the national
government we are Of the opinion that
this new company would have a hard
time living through the panic that
would naturally follow the installation
Of free trade, free silver and other such
wholly destructive theories in our gov

this new insurance will succeed.

Senator Teller says the gold Demo-
Gratis will support the Republicans in
1900 as they did in 1896 There is a
strong probability that the senator is
correct on this point. Bryan is making
the task of the gold Democrats toward
joining the Republicans very easy
The gulf at the present moment be-
tween Bryan and Perry Belmont, the
head Of the New York Democratic
Club, is as broad as it was between
Bryan and Palmer or"Cleyeland in the
campaign of 1896. Palmer and Cleve-
land threw up their hats when they
heard, on the night Of November ;, 1895
that the Republicans had swept the
country. They will. for a precisely
similar reason. shout on the night OF
November 6. 1900, when the telegraph
brings the news of the overwhelming
Republican victory.
