claimed that he has several times
driven his wife and children from the
house with revolver while he was
drunk and it has been necessary for
the neighbors to take care of them.

one 12-year-old girl and several

The current issue of the Railroad
Gazette contains a notable article on
the subject Of the interior steel rails
which are being supplied by the
United States steele trust. The most
notable thing about the article is the
unaminity Of railroadpresidents and
vice presidents as 60 the quality of
the rails now being supplied, their
violent Indignation about it and their
unwillingness for their names to be
used 10 the articles which they
have written lest the steel trust
should divert it's traffic from Their
roads. The situation seems to be
one of helpless slavery. The roads
profess not to be able to hear the
expense and responsibility for loss Of
life and at the same time dare not
offend their greatest single patron.

limited to 10 or 15 per train, so that

Life Insurance and Practical
Generosity.

For some time past. corporations
and great fiduciary institutions---all
organizations controlloing or holding
vast sums of money-have been the
chief objects of public attention.
Honest men have welcomed this
manifestation of public interest in
the problems created by modern
methods of conducting generous en-
terprises. Clear-headed men realize
at the same time that some of the
institutions made prominent by their
far-reaching operations and intimate
relations with the public. are con-
Quoted by men of the highest integ-
rity and are performing a public ser
vice OF incalcuable value.
The great Metropolitan Life Insur-
ance company of New York is COM
ing more and more to be recognized
as an institution whose attitude to-
ward the public is nearer to that OF
generous philanthroplst than an op-
pressive capitalist. This company
conducts the business of insurance
In way that can be understood by
the ordinary citizen. 1t estimates in
the light OF universal experience and
expert knowledge the actual cost of
insuring a life under given conditions
exaots a legitimate premium based
upon costs, writesa policy as definite
and clear as the simplest business
contract, and then PAYS every dol
lar the beneficiary expects or hopes
to receive.
Further concessions made by the
Metropolitan Life during 1906 affect
their younger policy holders, and
have taken the shape Of voluntary
cash dividends upon Industrial poll
cies-dividends not promised nor Inn
piled in the policies. not bargained
for, hoped for. or expected by those
who receive them. This Is an item
of something like two millions of
dollars, making the total voluntary
during the year more
than three millions.
