The experience of this company
would seem to fully expose the falla-
cy of expecting auxiliary companies
and agency stock schemes to produce
insurance at less cost than the ordi-
nary and tried methods of the older
companies.
Proposed Republic Life Insurance
Company of Chicago.
Promoters are soliciting in this
state subscriptions to the preferred
btock of corporation called the
Central Life Securities company. the
capital stock of which according to
the prospectus, is 2,50O,OO0. This
prospectus says the Securities COM
pany will own the stock of the Re
public Life Insurance company which
is not yet organized, and 1t will also
establish and own the control OF va
rious Agency Stock companies
throughout the country. the latter to
perform the duties of the agency de-
partment of the insurance company.
Reliable information has been re
ceived to the effect that with this
preferred stock bonus of a block OF
Agency stock Is to be given and that
contract is to be given which promises
attractive dividends in addition to
the dividends promised or expected on
the Agency stock, Securities stock
and Insurance stock. The preferred
stock and the bonus is to be placed
with influential men to influence bus
mess. The agency stock that is left
is TO be placed with "those who will
likely become insurants in the life
company"
From this 1t is clear that the
! Agency stock is to be issued to in
duce insurance, which would be un'
lawful in this state.
Experience has shown that lnsur-
ance companies with these elaborate
4 " officered and expensive auxiliary
organizations can not reduce the cost
of procuring insurance and hence the
extraordinary profits can not come
unless through speculation.
This bulletin is issued for the pur.
rose of warning the public against
/ insuring in any company which intro
duces these speculative features into
life Insurance, either to get busines:
or to make profits.
Life insurance companies are diff.
I ferent in many respects from other
corporations. They do not create
wealth. Their profits come from well
\ known and restricted sources. They
hold sacred trust for the people
the responsibility for which extends
far into the future. If they are to be
kept solvent. and il they are to com
mand the confidence and support OF
the public, they must be kept entirely
free from the hazard of loss and dis.

HARNEssING THE ROCKIES
Do you know

DO you know
That the ingenuity OF man, backed
by almost countless millions Of
dollars, is engaged in the gigantic
work of harnessing the mighty noun
tain torrents that flow through Colo
rado from the sides of the everlast-
ing Rockies?
That there are now under way in
this state power plants which, when
completed, will have capacity al
most beyond belief?
That these power projects and 9TH
ers in contemplation are going to
practically revolutionize things in
Colorado?
That the farmer, the manufacturer,
be he great or small; the live stock
grower, to the towns, the cities and
every inhabitant in them are going to
reap the benefit of these immense
works which men who have an un-
bounding faith in the future great
ness of Colorado are putting their
money into?
That soon great turbine engines ca
pable of developing tremendous
horsepower will be pounding in the
Centennial state?
That these projects of successful
and far-seeing business men are only
a few that will soon be under way in
Colorado?
Why?
Because these men of money who
do not do things without careful in
vestigation know that Colorado is
destined to become one of the great
est states in the union.
There are big things doing in
Colorado now; there Will be bigger

features of all sorts.

features of all sorts.
With this object in view the friends
of clean and safe life insurance have
placed in the laws of nearly every
state in the union restrictions as to
the investments of insurance COM
panies. They have passed laws to
eliminate rebating and unfair dis
elimination. and provided penalties
for deception and fraud.
The advisory board contract
scheme, the agency stock plan, and
all schemes of inducing insurance by
gifts or offers to give or sell some
thing of value have been condemned
by the Convention of State Insurance
commissioners, and by the laws and
the rulings of commissioners OF
many states. The last Legislature in
this state passed a law prohibiting
these improper methods and did ev-
erything It could to eliminate every
practice from life insurance that
would tend to bring discredit upon
the companies and loss and disap-
pointment upon the policyholders and
the beneficiaries.
Notwithstanding the strong senti-
ment against these methods, the ad-
verse laws, and the rulings of the
commiss ioners of insurance and that
experience has shown these plans to
be of advantage only to promoters eff
forts are being made in Chicago to
float several companies using them.
1t is of the utmost importance that
the public assist in suppressing these
practices by refusing to insure in such
companies, none of which will be ad-
mitted to Colorado under the revised
insurance laws.
