the advance which life assurance has

the advance which life assurance has
made in recent years is due largely to
an increasing public intelligence. Men
are learning that by it incomes are
maintained. mortgages are protected.
debts secured, undeveloped enterprises
guarded. business ventures rendered
safe. investments given permanent
value and capital not only preserved
but in a certain sense created. The
wonderful popularity attained by life
assurance within the present gener-
alton is also due to the fact Gin addi-
ton to furnishing the best method of
protecting the family and making pro-
vision for old age) that it provides
channel for the investment of surplus
funds and offers a security superior to
that Of any ordinary form of invest
ment. 1t is but few years since that
| the number of women included among
holders of life assurance was very
small. Today tens of thousands of
women carry life assurance for
amounts varying from one thousand
to one million. The great flexibility
of modern life assurance is one of it's
chief recommendations. It thus adapts
itself to the changing circumstances Of
the assured. Policies of assurance as
developed and perfected by The Equit-
able Life Assurance Society of the
United States have done much to ex-
plain the popularity and marvellous
growth of life assurance. This COM
pany is the Strongest in the World.
It's policies are known as the Govern
ment Bonds of life assurance.
A man can protect his family by
any policy that is issued by the Equit-
able, the New Guaranteed Cash Value
Policy being the standard form.
A husband and wife can provide for
their old age by an Annuity to con-
tinue as long as either lives, under a
Continuous Installment Endowment.
A father or husband can make abso-
lutte and unshrinkable provision. for
daughter. or wife for life under Con-
tinuous Installment Policy. A husband
and wife, or business partners, can
protect each other under a Joint Life
investment for his mature years by
means of Double Endowment.
This list might be continued almost
Indefinitely. No matter what the Sit
uation, or needs of an individual, he or
she can find some form of Equitable
policy to suit the requirements. A
postal card to P. o. Box 227, Walla

information. A telephone message to

MR.. MEAD's CONVERSION.

Governor elect Mead has changed
his tune. During the campaign he de-
clared that the governor had no bust
ness to attempt to influence legisla-
ton, as he was merely an executive
officer. For that reason he would not
pledge himself to urge the passage of a
railway commission bill, but he said
that he would sign any bill of the
sort that might be passed by the leg
stature. Now he is out in a long
message to the people of the state in
which he says:
In my message to the legisla-
ture it is my intention to make
some specific recommendation on
the subject of the creation of a
railway commission, either elective
or appointive. l am not yet pre-
pared to say just what that recon-
mendation will be. The subject is
grave and far-reaching. Before
writing my message 1 propose to
investigate and study it as thor
oughly as possible that I may
recommend a course of legislation
that will be practical, effective and
just

1t has suddenly dawned upon him that
the governor is authorized by the state
constitution to recommend such leg
islation as he shall deem necessary or
expedient and to give the legislature
information on subjects coming before
them.
The Statesman is pleased to see this
change in Mr. Mead's policy and it
trusts that his conversion may prove
The governor elect also follows the
example of Governor Mcbride in de-
nouncing the lobby that has long been
the controlling factor in legislation at
Olympia. He says:
L believe that in the fulfillment
of their functions there will be
established a disposition on the
part of those commissioned by the
people to listen to and follow the
suggestions of the men interested
in the best welfare of the state. and
