GOLD STANDARD INDICATED.


Northwestern Banker.1
The present condition of the money
market amply yindicates the position
taken by the advocates of the gold
standard during recent campaigns
They insisted that there was plenty of
money III the country: what was need
ed was confidence that If this money
was taken out of its hiding place an,I
put into circulation it would not be re-
turned to Its owners in deprecated
currency. The free silver people al
legged that there was not enough money
to do the bushes of the country, hence
the need of opening the minis to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver.
The minis were not opened and yet we
find money begging for employment.
The bank vaults are overlooking and
interest rates never were so low. The
prophesy of the gold standard prophets
has been fulfilled to the letter. Let
those who think that there is mo-.
enough money In the country spend a
profitable hour in reading over recent
bank statements. No wonder in the
face of present conditions there is a
tendency to put forward other issues
and yet there should be no lack of vigil
| lance on the part of the gold standard
men until congress has made the single
standard the law of the land, beyond
the power of den1agogues, or the acct
| dents of politics.

IOWA ADVANTAGES OVER ILL

IOWA ADVANTAGES OVER ILL
NOIS IN FARMING.
Editor Times-Republican: We desire
to offer a few words to the discussion
on the relative values Of Illinois and
Iowa farms. The first question to be
considered Is: How are farms operated
in either state to yield the greatest re-
turns? All must concede that
stock farming by which the crops are
condensed, thereby reducing freights,
has paid the best. Fifty-six pounds of
corn are condensed into ten pounds of
pork or six pounds of beef, and 1t will
make three pounds Of choice butter.
Now, assuming that 160-acre farm
after supplying the ordinary demands.
will raise and fatten one car of hogs
and fatten one car of cattle, we have
the largest part of the products OF the
farm ready to ship to Chicago. The
freight on these from central Iowa is
about $S5, and $40 from a point 100
miles from Chicago. These figures give
the Illinois farmer $45 the advantage.
which Is per cent on $500, the differ
ence between an Illinois and an Iowa
farm, taking profits as basis. the only
correct way to determine. This shows
less than Sc an acre in favor of the H.
linois farm. instead of $50, as claimed
/ by some writer's. Granting that an
other car of hogs could be produced, it
would add $40 more excess freight,
making s65 in all, which would be 5 per
cent on sl,SOO-ss.121s per acre differ
ence.
| Under some conditions the Iowa farm
| will equal If not give better showing
| than its competitor near Chicago. Very
many Illinois farmers purchase their
stock cattle in Iowa and pay two local
| freights to get them 10 market, which
is more than the Iowa farmer pays. II
4 either buys corn, and nearly all feeders
do, the Iowa farmer has an advantage
of 3 to cents per bushel. a very inn
| portant matter to the large feeder.
Only farming on special lines near
large cities in Illinois gives results that
make values materially higher than
stock farming in Iowa.
In noting the receipts of stock in Chi
cago during the summer we found that
Iowa furnished nearly one-half This
accounts for the abundance of idle
money and rise in land values.

NEW LIGHT PLANT.

A. E. Miller has just installed a lev
light plant in the Temple of Economy,
Inst night being the drst time the lights
were, used. He has put in twenty-three
lamps OF ninety cadle power each. The
lights have a tin pipe system through
which lie supplied the gasoline gas. Two
generators are placed in the rear Of the
store. These generators each occupy a
space of the size OF an ordinary two
burner gasoline stove and although one
generator would have been large
enough for the entire building, Mr.. Mil
Ter. has two generators, one for each
store. The gas for the light is general
ed In the same way and with a similar
burner as with a gasoline cook stove
and each light is manipulated the same
as the city coal gas lamps. not requir-
ing any heating OF tubes or preliminary
work. 1t is estimated that one gallon
Of gasoline will furnish light for the
store for four hours.

Health Insurance Held in Allowance
Pending Action of Insurance Commits
sioner.
Herbert r. Cummings, the local spe-
cia agent OF the Aetna Life Insurance
company, has been notified by the home
office that for the present, the writing
Of health insurance will be held in
allegiance.
This order only pertains to Massa-
chusetts as in all other states the law
puts no restrictions on the writing of
such insurance as was contemplated
when the company first decided to en-
ter into this new field. The fact of the
case is the laws in the Bay State re-
Earding insurance are extremely strict
and the companies are not allowed
much latitude.
Mr. Cummings said that the presi-
dent of the Aetna would, If he had not
already done SO, submit the question Of
the Company's right to write health in
surance to the state insurance depart
ment for their Interpretation of the
law along this line. Until their decls-
ion has been reached nothing will be
done by Mr.. Cummings.
The Aetna is the second company to
enter into this comparatively new
field in this country. Health insurance
has been tried in England and GERMANY
with success. The matter has been tho
roughly studied by experts both from
the statistics of the foreign countries
carrying this insurance and also from
facts gathered here and there in Am
erica.
The company, which intends to start
in at once in all the states except the
commonwealth, in writing health poll
cies has elaborated two forms for its
agents, namely, policies to be sold to
persons in the selected classes and
those in the preferred class, the ages
Of acceptance ranging from IS TO s.
years.
The first form is termed a general
health policy. The premiums are de-
termined by age and medical examine
ton and provide indemnity for total
disability with limit of 81 weeks. The
other form is sold only to persons hold
ing accident policies in the Aetna.
