THE INSURANCE PROBE.

Richard A. McCurdy, president Of the
Mutual Life Insurance company, makes
the statement that he has no intention
of resigning, that he was elected to
serve until June and that nothing can
or will drive him out.
McCurdy, Jr., testified in the New
York insurance investigation that he al
lows himself $500 week for expenses
when travelling for the Mutual.
McCurdy admitted to the Armstrong
committee that the Mutual mas paid
vast sums to lawyers, ex-state officials.
newspaper men and others in efforts to
influence legislation.
The New York investigators have de-
cided to include the state department OF
insurance in their inquiry because OF
suspicion that examiners are named by
politicians in the interest of the big com
panies.

TRICKERY OF DEMOCRATS
Law Framed by Maryland Plotters
to Disfrarchise
Voters.

The election law of Maryland. de
vised by democratic tricksters to in
,ure republicans, is working in way
which may operate as boomerang
against the originators. 1t has been
shown that 1t may serve to deprive
naturalized citizens of the right to
vote, fact which has aroused great
wrath on the part of those who may be
thus affected and may create a reaction
that will damage the democrats. An
other point Is scored against the law
BY Rear Admiral Yates Stirling. a re-
tired navy officer, who has had a long
and distinguished career. Rear Ad-
miral Stirling says: Upon returning
to my home in Baltimore, after an alb
sence Of several years in the service OF
my country, find that, by the laws of
Maryland,SI am classed as 'floater'
and disfranchised," and he asks with
tustifiable heat: Does Maryland in
tend by this law, passed, l believe, in
1902, to put stigma upon her sons
who leave the state upon the call of
the national government in the mill
tary and naval service?" Probably
the democratic plotters who framed
and secured the passage of the law had
no such purpose In mind. but the result
illustrates the reckless lengths to
which they were ready to so In fur

MANY KNOW THIS-DO YOU?

Tae following very interesting conversa-
ton between Mr.. White, banker, and Mr..
Walter Wellman, retired, two prominent
citizens OF the town, was recently over
heard:
Il never buy patent medicine" said Mr..
White. ''Waen feel the need of medical
assistance | call our physician. don't be
lieve in taking a lot OF stuff that know moth
ing about. l know, however, that a great
many do use it, and apparently with good
results, but am for getting doctor every
time:
BILE" replied Mr.. Wellman, but tae major
ity of people must consider the expense. My
experience is tnat some patent medicines
frequently cure when the doctors skill is
batiled. Take, for instance, an affection;
say like constipation and stomach trouble.
Did you ever near of your family physician
curing a case like thaty Ii constipated, he
gives you a physc; but physic cannot cure
constipation, and he will tell you SO. 1t is
a temporary relief and before long you need
more physic or pills. The doctor charges
you 81 every time you call on him and you
have to pay SOC to 75c to have his prescrip.
ton filed. Pretty soon you have the Pill
or 'Physic' habit and your doctor has
steady customer. You cannot read the doc
tors prescriptions. You know no more
about what he gives you than you do about
the ingredients of a patent medicine. No
reliable company Will put lot oil money into
| patent medicine unless they are convinced
| that it will do all that is claimed for it.
Usually it is the prescription of some special.

FAILED UNDER The TEST.
Massachusetts, Voters Were Not In
Favor Of Mutilating the
Dingley Tariff.

A warm tribute to the general ad-
ministration Of Mr.. Shaw, secretary Of
the treasury. by the Evening Post. the
high priest of democratic free trade, ia
qualified by the assertion that his eco
nomic theories "are hopelessly out OF
touch not only with intelligent mod
ern thought but with the growing con-
victions both of the eastern business
communities and Of the prosperous
west" Yet on the very day that this
editorial was printed. says the New
York Press, the voters Of Massachu-
setts were making test Of this ques-
tion at the republican primaries, with
the result that those who represented
''the growing convictions" were beaten
out of their boots.
Massachusetts is the particular spot
which the free-traders have been point
ing out to the members of congress as
demanding tariff reductions, especially
as affecting its trade relations with
Canada. They have declared that the
whole population there was burn
ing with indignation because their rep
resentatives In congress would not
lower the Dingley duties. The free
traders have been denouncing those
representatives for not leading an at
tack on the American tariff system.
They have been warning them that
when the voters came to pass on their
records there would be sorry reck-
oning for their failure to heed the de-
mand which was rolling in thunder
over the commonwealth for the mutt
lation of the Dingley act.
But when the Cumminses of Mass
achusetts went before the republicans
of that state TO get. their verdict at the
primaries they could poll no tariff re-
vision votes. They made lower duties
the direct issue to decide the nomina-
tions; they came out. fatty for reduc-
ton, and they waged what they
thought was red-hot campaign; bit
Mr.. Draper, who led the prote ;tioa
forces, got all the votes at the pri-
maries, as he and the other protection
leaders will at the general polls. New
ertheless, when Massachusetts repub-
licans are sent to congress to carry out
the will of their constituents ard 10
fulfill their own pledges, on which
they win their nominations and ekc-
uons with enormous pluralities, we
shall hear these same free trade
spokesmen declaring that Massachu-
setts is wild for tariff reduction ard
denouncing the representatives for net
ending the Dingley law, though they
were elected to uphold it,
And we have said more than once.
the growing convictions which the
Evening Post attests must be main
tained by the voters before their rep.
resentatives can act on them. So long
as the congress districts keep voting
for the Dingley law the repres ntc-
tives In congress of those districts
must keep acting for that law. II the
free-traders are to accomplish the
overthrow of the American tariff sys-
tenn they must find other instruments
Tor that work than representative
pledged and elected to maintain it. To
induce members of congress to five
the country free trade when they have
been sent there expressly to pres
protection will take more than the'
patience of Job and the years of Ne.
