r THE ALLIANCE-INDEPENDENT. i - t r The New York Life Insurance Company. We dchin; to call attention to tht ad-VJ-rtirit-nifnt of the Xw York Life In suran:e company, found on 1h lard page of thin issue. The opera' ions of this great company, organized in 181."). practically cover the v.hoie histor y of life insurance in this comfy. It.s growth has been pie nometi d and more marked than that of any similar institution in the land. Now with assets of over $1 2.".M)().XH), all of which have been stamped with the great sal of the, state of New York, and a surplus exceeding every liability of over $1.", HX),000, it stands to-day the strongest financial institution in the world. The company is a purely mutual one, its policy holders being its only stock holders, every dollar of profit, after paying necessary expenses, being di vided among its members. The splen did results of twenty-year tontine policies now maturing in this company attest the excellence of its conservative and able management. Only one other company has ever matured any of these twenty-year contracts, and their results fall far short of those achieved by the New York Life. In issuing its "New Accumulation Policy" the company has filled a long felt want. It is absolutely without restrictions, as to residence, , travel or occupation. Its guaranteed surrender values are larger than those of any other company, and it contains butone condition, that being the pay ment of premiums. Thiscontract beats anything yet offered to the public by any of the old line companies, for not withstanding the many advantages offered, the rates remain the same. Every farmer in Nebraska should pro tect those dependant on him by insuring his life. He can give no valid excuse sor not doing so, and the time to insure is right now. Life and health are both uncertain, so do not delay, but provide yourself at once with the only property which will not depreciate, at your death, a property that will not only provide a competency for your loved ones in the event of your being called away, but should life be prolonged, your policy will be a source of income in yonr declining years- An accumula tion policy in the New York Life is good in life or death.

The charge that politicians run politics in the interests of capital and that politicians' politics are corrupt is a true charge. But do not let the peoplo suppose that they are blame less in the matter. The neoole as a whole take no interest in politics. Caucuses, primaries and elections are held without the knowledge of hundreds and with thousands not participating. In time tho best political party on earth, under such circumstances, comes under the sole control of place hunters and profes sional political leaders. If less than a dozen men in Chicago agree that this or that political course shall be followed, or that such and such men shall be nominated, their decision will be ratified. Le's than twelve men can thus rule Chicago. In almost every campaign some enthus iastic citizen will be found spending his breath in vain in prophesying that the men whom the ring have settled upon for nominees will not be nom inated, and wasting his strength in working for their defeat. But any one who understands tho drift of politics knows that tho enthusiastic citizen is a political tenderfoot. Tho great mass of citizens thus permit tho politician to use parties for his own special benefit; and as he is out for what there is in it lie naturally gets on the soft side o: capital as soon as possible. It may bo correct to say that the feiiow should bo an honest man. All men should be honest. But if tho people persist in exposing the politician to temptation they must expect that ho will often falL Farmers Voice. Give the Heat a liauc e. We ought to have another big war hero so the rest of us can buy thico dollar's worth of greenbacks for one dollar's worth of gold, and then buy United States bonds with those green backs, at par, and draw 7 per cent interost like the war millionaires did. so we can become millionaires too. Then it was when it paid to start na tional banks; then what seemed to be 7 per cent was really 70 per cent. For $100,000 greenbacks taken to Washington would buy $100, 6oo in 7-30 bonus, and $J0, 000 paper no' cm were brought home, leaving only : lo. . 000 of our money there. But oar $100, 000 bonds drew 7 per cent in terest, in gold $7, 000 per annum, and this on the $10,000 equals 7u por cent Let's have another war, and get rich. "The common people be ."
