Tt is proper, under the circumstan- ces. to repeat: the Company's business continues to be conducted upon the same legitimate lines, and by the same standards, which have made it's long history as mutual life insurance com- pany a record unequaled in beneficial results to it's members and beneficiaries. The same conservatism, prudence ana uneaualed economy are maintained; and it's condition warrants the asser- ton that it will be able to utilize, to the full. all future conditions favorable to the earning of surplus; while in the distribution of it your Directors Will have always in view the twofold pur- pose: to make the annual payments of policy-holders as small as possible, and, in any event, to carefully and certainly maintain that strength which has al ways been one of it's distinctive fea- tures.''
 Effect of Interest
 In this connection it may be well to call attention to the fact that any change in the average rate of interest takes effect much more slowly in a life insurance company than in bank. The latter, having to be prepared for the contingency of sudden and great demands from it's depositors, keeps its assets in short-time paper, which being frequently changed at current rates speedily reflects their changes. The life insurance company-if managed on sound lines-is subject to no such con- urgency, and is able to secure the best results by longtime Investments: so that it's assets as a body change but slowly and can reflect only the general tendency of rates over long periods. The effect of the downward tendency, which we foresaw in 1882, has come but slowly to its present development; and lit finds us prepared with a reservessome sS, ,000,0O0 greater than it would have been had we continued to take new bus mess on the old basis, as others did, The present surplus by our own high CT standard of solvency is $4,629. .S12.55, after allowing the contingent deprecia- tion item of $S49, TAP already mentioned. 1 By the usual 4sper. cent standard of solvency it is about s3.Oo0sO00i greater, or say s7,500,00O.

1T NIGHT BE WORSE.

If the republicans have majority
on joint ballot in the next Legislature
it is likely that Addison G. Foster and
Sam Piles will be eliminated as can
didates for United States senator and
the fight will be narrowed down to a
choice between John L. Wilson, a rail-
road candidate and Charles Sweeney
the millionaire mine owner of Spokane
In that event it will be a question OF
whether the railroads or Sweeney puts
up the more Doodle. Sweeney is al
ready said to be placing big sums OF
money in many counties of the state
to elect republican Legislative candi
dates favorable to his candidacy and
some of this money is currently re-
ported to be on tap in Walla Walla
to help the republican Legislative
ticket
The speakers at the republican meet
ing at Armory hall last night held up
as a dreadful bugaboo the possible
election of George Turner to the Unit
ed States senate if democratic leglS-
lature should be elected. Certainly the
election of this able statesman would
be no such calamity as the election
of the Northern Pacific lieu land can
didate or the sale of the seat at auc-
ton to Sweeney, whose success would
be fatal to Senator Ankeny's chances
for reelection as the eastern WASH
ingtOn candidate in 1907.

BETTER TREATMENT OF CORRE-
SPONDENTS.

A dispatch from the seat of the war
in the far east says that the treatment
of war correspondents by the Japanese
has been radically changed. Heretofore
the Japanese have treated the foreign
war correspondents more as a species
of prisoners than as journalists. They
have been watched and hedged about
by rules and kept far from the scene
of actual hostilities.
1t will be recalled that prior to the
battle of Lao yang the correspondents
complained to General Kuroki that they
had not hitherto been allowed to APP
proach within eight miles of the fight
ing line. Thereupon General Kuroki
graciOusly consented to allow them to
approach within four miles. The
answer of many correspondents to this
announcement was in the form of a re-
tirement in disgust from the scene of
| the war.
| 1t is not altogether plain just why the
| Japanese should have been so unknd
| to the correspondents. especially the
! English and Americans who were pre-
sumably japanese sympathzers Fred
| erick Palmer attributes thu neglect OF
! the correspondents to the inability OF
the Japanese to distinguish between
| the western races. They feared that il
the correspondents got near the fight
! ing line they We're likely to be taker
for Russians and killed. But as the
correspondents We're quite willing tC
take this risk. we shall have to look fol
Il better reason.
III some respects the Japanese are
not so closely in sympathy with the
western world as they were TWENTY
Yeas ago Then going to school tt
the western nations, they had the pu-
pills respect for and confidence in the
| teacher Now that their nationa
Schooldays are over. they have come
to feel a sort of racial suspicion for al
weSterners. Coupled with this, in the
first part of the war. was a disdain fol
what other nations might think OF
japanese military operations, and q

GOOD EXA NIPPLE TO FOLLOW.

The Seattle Electric Company has
announced that on November l it will
reduce the price of electricity for
house lighting to the figures set when
the development of the great water
power at Puyallup was first planned
three years ago. The new plant at
Election is now in operation, greatly
increasing the supply of electricity.
The new rates are to be twelve
cents per kilowat hour for the first
sixty hours per month for the use of
the demand and three cents per kilo-
wat hour for the remainder of the con-
sumption.
The rates which have been in effect
for some time and are being charged
at the present time are:
Twenty cents per kilowat hour for
the first thirty hours per month for
the use of the demand and five cents
per kilowat hour for the remainder of
the consumption.
The term for use of demand"
means that the company, under its
the use of each consumer electricity
sufficient to meet the maximum de-
mand that may be put upon it under
the terms of each contract. For in
stance, for a residence in which are
installed twenty-five ncandescents
there will always be available sufficient
electricity to light all though the own
er or occupant may ordinarily not use
more than half a dozen.
To make safe its guarantee for the
use of Demand" as thus explained, re-
quires the generation of a certain
amount of power. the employment of
a certain amount of equipment. the
services of a certain number of en-
pioyes. greater. perhaps, than may be
requisite to give a limited supply of
light to all consumers today. but nee
esSary to meet perhOpS tomorrow. the
full demand under all contracts.
The price fixed for the first sixty
hours of the months. as reduced. is
twelve cents per kiloWat hour. If the
consumer uses less than the supply
available to meet the full demand the
cost Will be proportionately less.
The Northwestern Gas & Electric
company Will soon have its new plant
on the Walla Walla river completed
1t should then be in a position to imi
tate the example of the Seattle Electric
Company in making a substantial re-
duction in rates. \ voluntary reduc-
ton would strengthen its hold upor
its present patrons and would s,,or
bring ii as many new ones. Every
reasonable man desires that the com
panY shall make a fair profit on its
heavy investment. but nobody viii
cheerfully submit to the payment OF
eXtortionate rates.

certain satisfaction in expressing this
indifference by extending scant cour-
tacv to the corrpcnOn6pOfS


tesy to the correspondents.
Since the battle of Liao-yang how
ever. a change has come over the atti-
tude of the Japanses. Whether the
Handicapped correspondents We're not
in a position to give the japanese full
credit for their work in that battle, or
whether, being human, they decided to
do a little knocking" we do not
know. but it is certain that the Japa-
nese were not satisfied with the view
an influential part of the press of the
English world took of the
battle. General kuropatkin got alto
gether too much praise for saving his
army from the Japanese trap to please
the mikados generals, while very lit
tie was made of the japanese victory.
Possibly the journalistic handling of
the battle of Lao-yang has convinced
the Japanese generals that continued
suppression of the war correspondents
might lead to an ultimate estimate of
their military ability that would be far
short of the high opinion the world
entertained of them before the battle
of LiaO-yang.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-10-11

sumably subject to the qualification
ed governor, the republican nominees
for the Legislature if elected would
vote and work against the passage of
any appOintive commission bill for
Turner to sign. This inference is
justified by the following declaration
of the chairman of the republican
county central committee in his ca
pacity as editor of the Union:
The next legislature will be repub
lican George Turner has been SO bit
ter in his hostility to the republican
party. its leaders and policies since
he deserted it that he will be unable
to get anything from republican leg
islature. If Turner is elected there
will be no railroad commission while
he is governor"
So it seems Mr.. Sharpstein had all
his work and trouble for nothing when
he secured that pledge from the re-
publican legislative nominees. Their
pledge is worth just about as much as
many of the same sort that We're made
by republican Legislative candidates
two years ago and few months later
shamelessly violated at the dictation
of the railroad lobby.
iol lo,. do
through the Union We're not enough to
prove the intention of republican leg
prevent the passage of an appointive
commission bill if Turner be elected
governor. a campaign circular, writ
ten. published and circulated by the
republican state central committee
would clinch the evidence. Under the
caption. Why No Republican Should
Vote for George Turner" this circular
says:
There will be a republican legisla-
ture. No republican Legislature will
put into Turner's hands as governor
the power granted in the naming of
railway commission. Because of these
facts there is no reason why any re-
publican should vote for Turner"
In vciew of these official declarations
by the republican state committee and
the republican county committee it is
plain that the pledge secured by MI
Sharpstein from the republican legis-
lative nominees is meaningless and
worthless. 1t certainly needs fixing
and if he would make it more effective
Mr.. Sharpstein should have it amend
ed so as to repudiate the position taken
by the Union and by the state and
county central committees. In it's
amended form it might be presented
at the Armory hall meeting to be adj
dressed by Albert f. Mead. At the
same meeting it might be we'll to read
the resolution in favor of a railway
commission that was voted down with
boots jeers and Kisses yb Mead's fol-
lowers in Whatcom county last Sat
urday.

A good Roosevelt republican who at
tended the Jones' Sharpstein rally at
ArmOry hall last night says that by
actual count there We're just 270 people
present. including 81 women. Two
democrats acting independently OF
each other counted 239 people. Taking
the higher count, it certainly was not
a bowling success. But just wait till
the railroad candidate for governor
Albert f. Mead. comes. Then the rail
roads will probably run free excursions
and every effort will be made to OutdC
the monster Turner meeting.
