THE LAW AND THE TASTE.
A Vital Matter Now Agitating Beer
Drinkers of Milwaukee.

There is the story of the Kentucky
colonel who solemnly swore that the
flavor and bouquet Of his finest barrel
of whisky had been spoiled because
some careless person had dropped car
pet tack into it, the result being an Of
fensive taste of leather and a slight
flavor Of iron. The same refinement of
sensibility has become assertive in Wis
consin, and has brought on a contest
with the federal authority. Our neigh
DOrlng state has q large German pOpu-
latiOn and it maintains the reputation
which that nationality has unjustly ac-
quired for the consumption of beer.
These domestic followers of Gambrinus
are cOnnoisseurs, and assert that their
palatcs have been insuIted through the
practical operations of the law of the
land.
The German consumers do not object
to the fact that every barrel of beer is
taxed, for the government must be pro
vided with revenues, and their faVOrite
tipple is generally regarded as a luxury
Their exception is to the method en-
plOyed in collecting the tax. 1t is re-
quired that the stamp which evidences
payment be placed across the bung of
the barrel so that il will be mutilated
and thus Cancelled. This would do web
enough for the average beer drinker,
but in Milwaukee and other commune
ties Of the state there are many who de-
clare that the contents of the barrel are
tainted Dy TINS compliance with. the law.
Some of the compliments taste paper,
some taste printers Sink, and the more
expert of the experts taste revenue
stamp. AS this Introduction of bits of
paper into the beer finally raised a roar
Of complaint a number of the dealers
tore off the stamps in order to retain
their customers. For this violation OF
the law, without defeating its purpose,
twenty of them have been arrested, ana
the nice question to be determined is
whether they are compelled to blend the
taste of good beer with the taste of
green revenue stamps.-Detroit Free

NEW YORK INSURANCE DEPART
MENT REPORTS ON THE LARG-
EST LIFE INSURANCE COM
PANY IN THE WORLD.

President Richard A. McCurdy laid
this report before the board oct 2Sth:
At this season of the year when so
many railroad reports are appearing
in the daily press, it is interesting to
note the publication of the New York
insurance Department report on TIE
Mutual Life Insurance company of New
York, not only the largest life instr
ance company in the world, but also
model as regards management, meth
DDS and results. The state examination
made at the request of the company
and occupying the entire examining
force of the state department from jan
uary to September q, 1903, a space
of nearly nine months, verified TO a cent
the report made by the company itself
to the department. Every dollar of
the hundreds of millions handled by
the company from December 81, 1891,
|. to January 1, 1903, five years, was
checked and found accounted for in
strict accordance with the laws OF New
York state. the examination nee
tated, among other things, the counting
of all stocks and bonds owned, loans on
bonds and mortga ges. loans to policy
holders, investigation of ali real es-
tate titles and numerous other inqui-
ries to determine, as the report states,
that the company had been managed
in the best interest of the policy hold
ers."
The unparalleled size and strength
Of the company were strikingly exhib-
tied by the findings of the department,
which fully justified the companys
claim TO the title of largest in the
world The total assets Of the COM
pany, December 81, 1902, aggregated
the amazing sum of over 3S2 million
dollars. or many millions in excess of
any other life insurance company eth
er at home or abroad. while its income
for 1902 exceeded rs millions, or more
than that of the Erie railroad. the b.
& O.. or the Chicago and Northwest
tern by several million dollars.
Its disbursements fer the same period
exceeded A millions, more than PC mil
lions of which went to policy holders.
In dividends alone the company paid
out three million dollars as compared
with four million paid by the n. Y,
y. II. e II. railroad six millions by
the u. & o. and three million by the
Southern railroad
Another interesting point of COMPARE
son between the largest productive and
transportation companies and this 81
gantic financial institution is in the
number of persons interested in the
profits Of the company and benefited
thereby. The Southern railroad, for
example, has about 5000 stockholders,
the Pennsylvania $4,000. and the Unit
ed States Steel Corporation 10000.
The Mutual Life has over 100000 poll
cy-holders. who are its only stockhold-
ers and the only participants in it's
profits. AS a mutual company has no
stock to pay dividends upon, the policy
holders of this great concern, of course
