uniform system of accounts for rail-

penses and therefore exclude them
from the cost of performing current

traffic is separated from the expense
of hauling traffic. The construction
accounts are to be so drawn that cur

In an article in Scribner's Magazine
on "Americanisms," Henry Cabot
Lodge will bring joy TO many readers
by his remarks on the word guess s.
whose use in the sense of think or
suppose is SO derided by British
critics. Mr.. Lodge quotes Chaucer.
Shakespeare. Gray. Coleridge. Words
worth and Carlyle as using the word
in this sense. and says: Seriously
speaking. the word guess is a good
old English word. and the American
usage is both excellent and correct, as
well as far truer to the tradition and
spirit of the language than the British
substitutes of fancy imagine or 'ex.
pect, which last is grotesquely wrong
because it can properly apply only TO
the future" With this authority be-
hind him even the fastidious one anx.
ious TO display culture need not la.
ment when his tongue slips and he
says Il guess" instead of Il fawncy."

PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence of Gov
Hughes, the New York Legislature de
cided to make no radical changes in
the new insurance law. 1t was pointed
out by Gov. Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms. with proportionate
benefits to policyholders. and that ii
should be given a thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered. 1t is estimated that the
cost of the mismanagement of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the beneE,s
to present and future policyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze of the big companies and the ex-
cessive cost of securing new business
was the most extravagant evil of the
old management Under the new
regime the cost of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
Life Assurance Society in its report
Tor 1906 was strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there was a
saving of over 100000 in expenses.
besides an increase in the income
from the Society's assets amounting
TO as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
income was 1s42fe in 1904. 1885 in
1905. and only 1+4sG in 1906. The
dividends paid TO Equitable policy
folders in 1906 amounted to 1889. 734.
which was an increase of more than
nc over 1905.
While the Equitable made a better
ihowing than any other big company.
Ill reported radical economies and I'M
Ter such conditions the Legislature
wisely decided to leave the law SUBJ
'tantially as It stands.
