How Life Insurance ;,
Can BE Reformed
By GAGE E. TARBELL. Third Vice President of the. Equitable
Assurance Society

By GAGE E. TARBELL. Third Vice President Of the. Equitable Life
Assurance Society
SPNAS HERE is no denying that there has been too great a race for
life insurance buiness-that the last few million dollars writ
ten annually by the larger companies have increased the cost
somewhat. In fact, / believe that the cost of conducting the
business should be MATERIALLY REDUCED during the next
five years, andI hope to see at the expiration of that time the leading
companies of this country transacting their business at a total expense
not exceeding Is per cent of their total income.
A law LIMITING THE COMPENSATION to be paid for
business, if properly framed, l think would be desirable, and a greater
expenditure on the part of any company than the total loading fox ex-
penses is, to my mind, dangerous and unwise and should be guarded
against by legislation. !
The one thing desirable above everything else is COMPLETE
PUBLICITY. That, properly arranged and well carried out, would
be a cureall for most if not all of the existing evils. In this connecticut
gain and loss exhibits should be required, showing the percentage Of
loading expended. Any FICTITIOUS SALES or loans should be
prohibited. Officers of life insurance companies should not be per-
miHed to accept an office in any other corporation carrying with it any
compensation.
NO LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY SHOULD BE PERMITTED ToI
OWN A CONTROLLING INTEREST IN ANY BANK, TRUST Conn.,
PANY OR ANY OTHER CORPORATION.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 16.

Perth Amboy is not the only city
that is finding fault with it's excise
board. Here is what the Camden
Courier .La>saF-abUut the one in
Camden:
There would seem to be no prob
ability of a j%udicious system of licens-
ing saloons in Camden under pres
ent conditions, and the suggestion
intrudes itself that council would be
wise to abolish the excise commits
sion and provide for the selection of
a license authority that would give
some attention to the provisions OF
the act under which the present com
mission was established. The act in
question authorizes council to estab-
lish an excise commission, which is
empowered ito license and regulate
or prohibit inns and taverns, restau-
rants and beer saloons, and when
licensed to revoke Or transfer such IL
censes, and TO prohibit all traffic in
or sale of intoxicating drink or
drinks" There was an effort upon
the part of the members of the earli-
or excise commissions established by
council to exercise every part of its
authority, but of late years every
restraining feature thereof has been
permitted to fall into "innocuous des-
uetude." until now only the single
authority Ito license is exercised.
There is no honest effort TO regu-
late or "~to'reyoke" licenses, but an
unseemly haste ito license every APP
plicant who comes along and to bar
none who have been convicted and
fined for violation of the excise law.
II is a lamentable condition, the
cause for which can only be looked
for in the makeup OF the commission,
which has shown its utter incapacity
to deal with it's own ordinances and
the law under which il is established.
In this situation, city council, which
created the commission, should abol-
ish it as at present constituted, and
provide for a smaller board with a
reasonable salary that would &C
men mote "regardful of their duties
and of fpublicvsaFf iment on the IL
cense question. Council can do no
more beneficial ns5praiseworthy act
than abolish The present excise com
mission, whose. recent ''railroading'
of 221 retail and 80 wholesale Ii
censes through in twenty minutes,
without inquiry sor Investigation and
in despiteA OF htstest, indicates that
it is simply a,F7clrine TO license
and not ito revoke licenses of con-
victed ~violators of the law

"Freeholder" in the New York

says:
"Every city that wants permission
to establish municipal light and wa
ter plants would better assail the

will be Il raft of such measures and
the first in hand may be the better
served. 1t seems to have occurred to

That maeadam is not Il proper ma
terial to pave a heavily travelled
street is evident from the present
condition of State street from Smith
street north. This street has just
been put in excellent condition, as far
as the macadam is concerned. 1t was
redressed and made smooth and hard,
but it is covered with an oozy mud
due to constant use. Asphalt, brick
or wooden block should cover this
thoroughfare. The appearance OF
the city will never be what it ought
to be until this is done.

AS far as we have been able to see,
no one has had any fault to find with
this hanging. Sheriff Wilbur is
rightly complimented and other sher-
ifs would do well to study his meth
DDS and follow his examples. Be
tween the gallows and the electric
chair, it is doubtful if there is any
difference if beth are handled right.

Commenting on the hanging of
murderer Long in Mercer county, the
Trenton Times says:
"Sheriff Wilbur is to be compli-
mented on the manner in which he
performed the unpleasant duty of eX-
ecuting Charles Long yesterday. The
hanging was perfectly planned and
carried out without a hitch. The idea
of having the actual eXecutioner con-
cealed deprived the affair of one Of
the most gruesome features of past
hangings. If there was any certain
ty that all New Jersey sheriffs would
follow the example set by Dr.. Wilbur
there would be no further occasion
for tho talk Of substituting the cleo
tric chair for the scaffold IN capital

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Golfers for January 20:
Senator Bailey's reason for deem
ing himself unsuited to leadership OF
his party in the senate is at least
suggestive. 81 have not acquired,
he SAYS, the art of being agreeable
under all circumstances, and | will
never place myself in a position
where a failure to do so is certain to
result in constant personal annoy
ance and might result in serious EN-
barrassment TO my party" The SEN
ate has a special social atmosphere,
! where courtesy" is followed far be-
yond the line of moral s~oundneSs,
and, if no other good results from the
advent of Mr.. La Toilette, it is to be
hoped he will at least do something
to destroy this private-club-like mar
mony of intercourse. Elsewhere,
certainly, in American politics, tact
Eof the gFoSser sort described by SEN
ator Bailey has ceased TO be a neces-
sity. Who has it now? Not Cleve-
land. Bryan, Folk, Roosevelt, or La
Toilette. Not even Taft, and GER
tainly not Root. Not Deneen, Jer-
ONE, or Douglas; not any of the men
who have led the movements of these
recent years. The breed OF univer-
eo1Iv aGrenino and conceding GENTLE
men in America at large. is almost
extinct. 1t can not exist much long
or in the senate. When courtesy
means human sympathy. when tact is
another word for kindness. these
onaIities adorn our life. but when
they. are a cloak for unjust cOnces-
sion and moral Indifference, they are
hut weapons in the general arsenal
of selfshness and hypocrisy.

WRECK GRANT
CITY HOTEL.
W~OmanBeaten and Two Walters
Badly Hurt in This Automobile
Stopping Place.

TOTTENVILLE, Oct. 2.-Captain
Crowley, of the Staten Island police
precinct, and a dozen policemen in
plain clothes worked yesterday
searching for the men who attempted
to wreck the restaurant of Jean Ma
thieu, known as the Castle Hotel,
at Grant City. Mr.. Matthew, his sis
ter, Josephine, and two of Matthews
walters are badly hurt, one of them
bein gin a serious condition in st.
Vincent's Hospital, Stapleton.
Fifteen rowdies went to the res
taurant shortly before nine o'clock
Sunday evening while the place was
well filled with diners. One of the
walters, Alcide Minot, requested one
of the gang to be less noisy in the
restaurant, when he was bounced up
on and his face beaten until it was
unacceptable.
Matthew, going to the assistance of
his waiter, was thrown into the street
and when Matthews sister went to
her brothers assistance she was
dragged by the hair and badly beat
en- by the r%ufiians.
Not a policeman was in sight and
zone came until Matthew, almost I'M
conscious from his injuries, called up
the Stapleton headquarters IN the
telephone. In the meantime the row
dies had beaten and kicked Henri
Casteron, another waiter, SO badly
that the man was unconscious and
remained so long after being re-
moved Ito. the hospital. He is in a
seriouis Condition.
The police of the New Dorp sub
station are in charge of the case, I'M
der thesdirection of Captain Crowley.
Six mointed men OF duty and six on
reser&a from the police force for
foptSrtwo square miles of territory. of
which Grant City is approximately
the centre, Casters place is popular
with Automobiles, and many of
these with their friends were in the
main dining hail adjacent to the
building where the assault on Ma
thieu and his sister took place.
The proprietor of the restaurant,
his sister and Minot, the waiter, were
sWathed in bandages yesterday. All
had their eyes discolored and Minot's
lip was, three times its usual size.
Besides this Matthew had several
stitches taken in the wound in his
head. while Miss Matthews arm was
in bad condition.
1t was said that the band that tried
to Wreck Castel's place came from a
picinc held in a small park across
the road. The Castel restaurant is
patronized exclusively by diners and
has no picnic park attached to it.
After the assault on the Matthews,
trains and trolley cars were held up
the police while they searched for
the assailants, but thus far no clue
. to the men has ben foudn. 1t was
said at Staten Island headquarters
, that the men probably left the train
on which they escaped from Grant
City before it reached st. Georeg and
| took a later car to the ferry and thus
! reached New York.

The admiration of the two was mu-
tual from that moment.
! Following the settlement of an es-
tate in Chicago Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson
will live in San Francisco. Mrs. Burns
worked in the candy shop as usual
yesterday but she expects to lead a
life of ease in the future. Mr.. Wilson
