And there is a suspicion that in the contest of today the republicans may in their desperation support McClel- land, Tammany's nominee, in order to secure the defeat of Hearst." It would not be lamented, ws Hearst's success f would mean the elevation of the more, dangerous element in political power, But what a condition of things must exist, surely, when the affairs of & great tity like New York are loft to the tender mercies of a' combination which all good men and true must sincerely deplore. ° A gieral awakening a liftle sooner would have rid the mayorality of all that is now lamentable in connection with it. iti Accounts Objected To.

Willptt, an expert, writes on cost of insurance and says it should be less. From his article in the Political Science Quart- erly we quote : "We have seen that the average ex- perience of twenty-four companies shows a saving on mortality of over 2 pee cent, an excess of interest earnings of nearly 1 or cent., and a generous profit from lapsed and sur rendered icies, while the loading is just sufficient to cover the cost of Fasting on the business. The gain and loss exhibit indicates that but for the depreciation of "securities during the year 1903 the insurance operations of that year would have brought in to the companies s profit of more than $40,000,000 to be returned to the poli- ey-holders, or added to the surplus. With no improvement in the methods and Jraction of insurance companies & reduction of 20 per cent. or 25 per cent. in premium rates is possible for a company managed. with average care and efficiency, and is in every way do sirable, a "But to bring insurance rates down to the present cost-lovel is only half. enough. Cost itself should be lowered, It is demonstrable that some of the practices of insurance companies tend to. increase their mortality loss, that uo higher riet rate of interest could he secured on their investments, and that the cost of administration is of. ten extravagantly high. Improvement in any of these particulars would ma- terially lower the cost. of insurance, and make possible a further reduction in. premium rates, resulting in a wid- er utilization of the hefiefits of insur. anee by people of small or Moderate} means, When the insurance experts talk in this strain the people who are not ex- perts will be excused if they are some. what scarce in their criticism.
