suicide No Bar.

Judge Phillips, in a decision in
the case of Rosa B. Jarmin against
the Knights Templars and Masons'
Life Indemnity Company held, first,
that under the statute governing
assessment insurance companies it
was no defense against the payment
of the policy that the insured com
mitted suicide. unless it was shown
that he contemplated suicide at the
time he was insured.
Lawyers have estimated that this
ruling will cost assessment compa-
nies at once about half million
dollars.
The case was transferred to the
United States Court from the Cir
emit Court John P. Jarmin, a
druggist of Trenton, Mo, shot him
self in September, 1898. He had
been insured in the Knights Tenn
plars and Masons' Indemnity Com
pany, of Chicago, for $4,000 and
had paid in assessments $S11.

Orders that make the same prom
ises that the editor of the Column
bion Herald calls attention to, and
will, in the near future, be forced
to change their plan, or call for adj
ditional assessments. We know OF
some three or four men joining one
of these Orders because it is cheap.
That is the very reason they should
not Join. Life Insurance costs so
much money and cannot be deliver
ed fnr less. Therefore, any Order
proposing to do SO will suffer in the
future.
The A. 0. U. W. started out to
sell insurance for SOC. per thousand
for all ages from 21 To 81 years OF
age, but found out that the Order
was delivering its goods at less than
cost. Now its plan is to have each
age pay what the article cost, and
all are happy, rs no one is paying
more than the cost of his protection.

The following is the action of the
Supreme Lodge on the question of
prohibited occupations: "The spec
ial committee on prohibited occu-
pations recommended that the Su-
preme Medical Examiner, together
with the committee on vital statst:
les, be requested to compile such
information and have the same
rendy at the next meeting of the
Supreme Lodge, that it may then
be acted upon. The report of the
committee was adopted"
1t is reasonable to suppose that
the first occupation to be prohibited
will be railroad employees. 1t is
true that certain branches of rail
road employment. such MS switch
men, are very dangerous, but all
classes should not be barred on this
account alone. The Nebraska Work
man has this to say on the subject:
We trust that any action taken
along this line will be conservative
and that no injustice will be done.
1t may be that there are certain oc-
equations which should be prohib.
tied, but if it is the intention to leg
islate against any of the railroad
employees, we desire to enter a most
emphatic protest. We believe our
members employed in railroad work
more than pay their own losses,
and shall believe so until statistics
are produced showing our deduct
ions to be wrong. Our Order was
founded by men in the railroad
shops at Meadville, Pa, and we
have had no better workers for the
Order than this class of members
and can hardly believe that the
Supreme Lodge will legistate against
their interests. The tendency is
toward increasing the appliances
for safety in railroad work, and
while many of the employees are in
jured, we do not consider the num-
Der of deaths to be larger than in
many other occupations,

plan for increasing attendance at
Lodge meetings has worked well
with quite number of Lodges.
Some of our Lodges might try it.
The plan is to place in deep
sack as many beans as there are
members present, all white but one,
that one black. Each member then
puts in his hand and draws out one
bean. The member getting the black
bean has his assessment paid by the
Lodge for that month.

DeIusive Promises By FrsternaI So
cieties.


cieties.
Quite a number of fraternal So
cieties make promises in their liter
ature and advertising, which, they
should know, if they know anything
at all, that they cannot fulfill. We
refer TO those societies which prom
ise that payments shall cease at the
age OF 10, or that partial payment
of the amount due at death, shall
be made at that age. There are
number of societies making such
promises, and the members who
have gone into such societies are de-
luded with the expectation that the
promises will be fulfilled. o. all
these societies, the lnd pendent Or
der of Foresters fins the most in
this particular. 1t has made prom
ises which it knew it could not full
fill, and the fact that it has had to
increase its rates twice during the
last decade, is sufficient proof of its
own admission of the insuffciency
of its rates, and its consequent in
ability to perform its promises.
Even under its last rates, which are
now in force, and which on an aver
aye, about equal to net non-partic-
ipating rates of old line insurance,
it knows, and everyone else con-
versant with insurance. knows, that
il cannot give an endowment at
age of 40, nor can it forego the pay
ment of assessments at that age.
The proof of this is in the rates
themselves. The rates are based
upon an amount that at a per cent
interest, will produce the sum OF
$1,000 at uge of 20. In other words,
every member admitted to the For
esters must pay an amount that
with compound interest at per
cent, will, at age 70, produce the
sum to be paid to his family.
We see, then, that under these
new rates, every member must pay
the amount required, and must live
until he is seventy years of age, or
the rate is still inadequate. What
folly then, under such conditions,
it is to assert that payments shall
cease at 70 years OF age, when for
each mt mber who dies prior to age
70, there is deficiency. Who will
pay this deficiency? for it must he
remembered that this is not the
only deficiency that the Foresters
have to meet. If the recent increase
of rates was "A necessity for the flu
ture perpetuity of the Order, then
it Was II nee, ssity that the rates of
the old members should he increas-
ed as well as the new members.
Their rates are fully 33 1-3 per cent
less than the new rates, and it looks
to man up tree as if the Forest
ers will have their hands full to
provide for the deficiency of the
rates in The old members, to say
nothing of taking care of detic-
iencies which will be the outcome
of impossible and delusive promises.
1t is about time that fraternal
societies realize that their mission
is to give life protection divorced
from any and all kinds of invest
ment features, and we shall have no
regrets if the legislature compels the
societies making these promises to
increase their rates to an amount
sufficient to warrant their fulfill
ment.-The Columbian Herald.
