The business Of the Security Mutual
Life Insurance company for the year
1904 has more than met the expecta-
lions of it's officers. The new business
for the year is over $2.400.000 and the
business in force now amounts to near
1y $4.500,000. Each policy issued by
this company is secured by deposit OF
approved securities with the state audi
tor. This is the only old line company
that deposits it's entire reserve with
the state auditor of Nebraska.
The Security Mutual Life does bust
ness only in Nebraska The low death
rate here and the higher rate OF in
terest which the company can get on
its investments will enable it to make
a greater return in dividends to it's
policy holders than eastern compa-
MES can to theirs. They operate all
over the country, and must necessarily
have higher death rate. For instance
according to the last census the av-
erage death rate in the United States
was 1857 persons to each 1000 of pop
nlation. In lJebrSska it was only IT'S
to each 1000 persons, while in Mas

Even the city of New York is being
driven to the adoption Of populist prin-
ciples. Many of the leading citizens
are now declaring either tc adopt those
principles or bring irretrievable disas-
ter upon the city. Even the Brooklyn
Eagle, the most pronounced plutocratic
sheet IN america, which has always
been bitterly opposed to those prin-
ciples. applying the severest epithets
to every man who advocated them, is
now demanding as the only way of
escape from the Standard Oil exactions
that the city shall build, own and
operate gas and electric lighting
plant. That is the way that populism
marches on these days.

The Independent learned one thing
last week that it did not know before.
1t won't do to joke with a dyed in the
WOOL democrat. The Independent lost
a subscriber by trying it. It said that
there were lot of democrats going
around declaring that they had never
voted republican ticket and that they
were all liars, for every one of them
had voted for Grover Cleveland. One
democrat got mad at that and stopped
his paper" He wouldn't have anything
more to do with paper that declared
that democrat had voted republi-
can ticket.

They have been burning cotton in
the south to reduce the supply and
raise the price. When the republican
editors ran up against that demonstra-
ton Of the application of their erron-
eous theories of political economy, they
all seem to be staggered. With tens
OF thousands who would buy that cot
ten and other tens of thousands who
economize in every way tc, save their
cotton goods and make them last
longer because they have no money to

In less than one year, the price Of
cotton has fallen from 1850 to $40
and there is prospect that it will go
still lower. Fourteen years ago., five
cent cotton produced a political up
heaval in the south and forty-seven
men were elected to congress as rep
resentatives Of the Farmers Alliance.
Every one of them proved a traitor
except Tom Watson. Now they are al

was made from tariff on quinine and
It is all now in the possession OF one
woman. During the war and for some
time afterwards the people had to pay
$3.50 an ounce for quinine and some
times the price was run up to three or
four times that amount. It would
seem that uneasy would lie the head
that had accumulated fortune in that
way. The man who did it is dead and
