in yearly installments. so that the com
pany will be able to pay the last man
in full even without the addition Of
new members. This amount of money
is popularity called the premium.
The premium is composed of two
parasitic net premium and the load
ing premium. The net premium
is the amount which is mathematical
ly necessary for the creation of fund
sufficient to enable company to pay
the policy in full at maturity. The
loading is the amount added to the net
premium to provide not only for the
easily ascertained expenses, such as
sbalurieS of officers and commissions
for writing the policy; but it is intend
ed to provide for all other possible
contingencies, such as mortality in
excess of the tabular rate, interest
earned less than the assumed rate. de-
probation in the values of securities
and loss of invested funds.
The foundation principle of life in
surance is safety II is better to col
lect too much than too little. Hence
the Importance of making provision
for unforeseen contingencies and hence
the loading, which is percentage Of
the net premium for any certain age.
For purposes of demonstration, sup
pose there has been organized life
insurance company with a number of
members equal TO the pumbcr of per-
sons out of 100000 that the mortality
table commonly in use in this country
shows will be alive at the age of 81.

Jerry Simpson always tried to make
his advcrsaries look ridiculous. always
threw new light on every subject, made
a personal friend of every member Of

declared never changed vote on any

tainer and rare personality the House

BRIEF AGAINST BEEF TRUST.
Attorney General Files Paper for Uni-
 ted States Government.

ted States Government. Washington, Jan. 1.-The brief of the government in the case of Swift and Company vs. the United States known as the beef trust case, prepared by Attorney Supreme Court of the United States today. The brief is devoted principal ly to an argument to show the packers are engaged in a conspiracy to monop- olize interstate commerce in fresh meats.
 The attroney-general says:
 Tt may be remarked that Judges have differed as to the validity of az gregations of capital. effected by some form of organic union between several smaller and competing corporations, and economists are far from agreeing that such aggregatlons within limita- tions are hurtful. So, too, associations of manufacturers to regulate competi- ton within a restricted area have not always been condemned by courts and have sometimes been approved by pub licists.
 But has a responsible voice yet been heard to justify. legally or eco nomically, a conspiracy Or agreement between nearly all the producers of commodity necessary to life? The con federates acquire absolute control and dominion over the production. sale and distribution of that commodity throughout the entire territory of a nation, with the power at will to raise prices to the consumer of the finished product and lower prices to the pro- ducer of the raw material? Yet such is that now at the bar of this court. That there Is a conspiracy to control the market of the nation for fresh meats, that 1t does control 1t and that its control is merciless and oppressive, are facts known of all men.
 The broadhquestion here is, does the Governments position, with its state ments of fact standing unchallenEed, discover that conspiracy to the court? We submit that it does, and that de- cree of the civil court should in all things be affirmed"

Mr. Heyburn of Idiho Declares Those Implicated fn Land Frauds h His state Are Not Friends
 Of Haa. Fs

Washington, Jan. 4.--Public land frauds constituted the topic of serious consideration at the White House to- day. The situation in Oregon and the developments in the last day or two concerning the alleged frauds in Idaho. both were discussed. Secretary Hitch cock was an early caller, remaining with the President, however, only a short time. While 1t is known that some phases of the land cases was dis cussed. the Secretary did not care to say anything at this time for publi- cation,
 Senator Fulton of Oregon also had A brief chat with the President about the Oregon cases. He Is sincerely resent ful of the action taken against his col league Senator Mitchell.
 Senator Mitchell" said he, lis as in- nocent of any base or criminal connec- tion with the land frauds in our State as any man in Oregon. Senator Mitch ell has been identified with the great interests of our State for nearly q quarter of century. He has worked ably, insistently and honorably to advance these interests. Today he s a poor man. living in couple of little rooms here on a side street. I am quite positive that his innocence of the charges against him will be demon strated satisfactorily to all the world.'
 Senator Hepburn of Idaho talked. to the President about the bill he has pre- pared, providing for the Federal in- corporation of companies and concerns doing an interstate business. He said also that he proposed to try to obtain consideration in the Senate for the pure food bill and. if possible, would have 1t made the unfinished business of the Senate.
 As Senator Hepburn left the White House. he was asked what he had to say regarding the land fraud exposures In his State.

A year ago. in the course of a speech concerning the Northern Pacific land grants, I called the Senate's attention to the land frauds being committed in Idaho stood ready then, and stand ready now. to assist the officers of the Gov ernment in ferreting out the criminals and securing their punishment.
 Mo-" he continued, in response to further inquiry, T never acted as at- torney for any of the people who are alleged to be connected with the Idaho frauds. I am no friend of theirs. and they are no friends of mine. We will get to the bottom of these frauds if can bring about such a result"

TRIMMED FINANCE ATTRACTS AT-
 TENTION OF STONE.
Missouri Statesman Proposes an Inves- tlgation of the Charges of Bos- ton Man and Judge Alton
 B. Parker.

Washington. Jan. 4.-Senator Stone of Missouri, today introduced a resolu- tion reciting some of the assertions of Thomas W Lawson and Judge Alton E. Parker concerning campaign contri- buttons and asking the Judiciary Com mittee to inquire into the allegations. The resolution Is as follows:
 Whereas, Thomas w. Lawson, a prom inent citizen of Boston. Mass. and a capitalist of reputed large fortune. in signed articles published in Every body's Magazine" a responsible and widely circulated publication. has spe- officially charged that he conspired with certain well known capitalists to raise a large corruption fund to be used to promote the election of the Republican candidates for President and Vice-Pres- ident in 1896, and that they did raise $5,o06.000 to be experded to turn at least five of the doubtful States" and
 Whereas. During the campaign of 1904 1t was directly and emphatically charged by Judge Alton B. Parker. a prominent candidate for office of Pres ident. and other citizens of great prom thence and high repute. belonging to both Republican and Democratic par ties. as well as by many important and responsible journals, that large sums oi money nau been contributed by or extorted from numerous corporations to be used to influence the election then ensuing for President and Vice-Presi- dent of the United States, and
 Whereas, the President in his last message sent to Congress. December 6, 1904, took official cognizance of a growing tendency to corrupt the cleo torate and did in direct terms recom- mend the enactment of law relating to bribery and corruption in Federal elections.
 Therefore, resolved. That the Judi eiary Committee of the Senate be and is hereby authorized, empowered and directed to make inquiry into the mat ters stated in the foregoing preamble and also generally into the subject of the use of money in Federal elections so as to ascertain as far as possible the extent of the evil and to report to the Senate at the first session of the Fifty ninth Congress by bill or otherwise the legislation said committee may deem necessary to prevent or suppress bribery and corruption in such election. Said committee may sit during the va cation of the Senate and shall have authority to send for persons and pa pers and to compel the attendance of witnesses.
