The Northwestern Mutual Life Ins.
Co. is just out with Its thirty-third an
nual statement , from which wo copy the
following interesting rending *
' 'Reform ' In life Insuianco methods is
considered necessary first , in the char
acter and quality of business obtained ;
fcocond , in the expense of securing busi
ness and administering company affairs ;
and third , in the investment of trust
funds. Pledged ns the Northwestern
has been and is , to increase its
strength and usefulness from year to
year , lot us examine brlcilv the com
pany's recent record in the above partic
ular. . The standard ot membership in
this company has always been high ;
higher , indeed , in 1801 , with a now busi
ness of sixty-five millions , than ton years
before with a business of only fifteen
millions. The average death rnto
of the company during the past
twenty years was 1.00 ; during the past
fifteen years , 1.03 ; during the past ton
ycnr , 0.07 ; during the past llvo years ,
0.05 ; during the past year , 0.80 ; and
lower during each poriou than the death
rate of any ether loading company ,
t The supremacy of the Northwestern
among its principal competitors , in point
of interest rate , continues. Comparison
of this report with statement of last
January , will show that the rate actu
ally earned In 1801 was 0 1-10 per cent ,
on the assets at the beginning of the
year. The same well known , careful and
exact standard and methods govern the
Investment of its funds , and wo thinlc no
ether company can show its entire
"reserve'1 invested in first mortgage
bonds. Relative to the expense of secur
ing now business , our company hab not
for years , in n stnglo instance , paid
salary to any general or soliciting
agent ; while the grade and rate of com
mission paid for business is no higher
than eight years ago. The "ratio of
expenses nnd taxes to now business , "
during 1880 and 1890 , was lower In the
Northwestern than in any other
regular company , nnd lower still in 1891.
It is also proper to state in this connec
tion that our company , during 1890 , in
collecting nearly $9,000,000 in premiums
lost through its agents only $70.90 , or
less than ono one-thousandth of 1 per
cent. In 1891 , in collecting ever $10-
000,000 , it lost nothing.
Our policyholders have become will
ing to waive the distinction of belong
ing to the largest company in the world ,
or the company doing the largest busi
ness in the world , since they have ex
perimentally learned that such results
as the foregoing mean not only increased
and increasing solidity and strength ,
but annual and substantial benefits to
them not equalled by any other company
in the world.
Tlio company , during the past year ,
settled its first ton-year tontine policies ,
issued in 1881 , that proved very satis-
sactory , and justify the bollet that , what
ever the results under such policies may
bo in the future , they cannot fail to
yield larger surplus returns for premi
ums paid thnn any other form of life and
investment insurance in this or any
ether company.
The assets January 1 , 1891 , wore $48.820-
755 45.
The income for 1801 was :
Premiums and annuities $10,117,044 20
Interest and rents 3,420,753 51
Total * 12r.44,09T 71
. The surplus over a four per cent reserve Is
$7b91,71)0.55. )

After Better Hates.
Mr. Babcock , manager of the stock yards ,
Mho wont to St. Louis to attend tbo session
of the Southwestern Hallway and Steamship
association , says that the matter in regard to
southwestern rales Is not yet settled. Of
the ten railroads comprising the association
only ono conies to Oninlm while the other
nlno enter Kansas City. As n result the
town on the Kaw is favored by the associa
tion and it costs $ -25 par car nioro to ship
stock to Omaha from southwestern points
than It docs to send It to Kansas City.
Mr. Baocock is determined If possible tote
to secure equitable rates and ho made a
strong presentation of Omaha's side of the
case to the association. The frolcht audi
tors who comprise tnu body admitted the
force of the arguments and after a discus
sion of the matter decided to refer it to the
I oxecutlvo committee which conslbls of the
presidents of the ten roads. Mr. B.ibeoclc
feels sanguine In regard to the claims of
Oniaba being rocoenlj'cd and will press the
matter with nil the force possible until the
coangcs desired shall be socurcd.

Tuberculosis AHVctcil Cnttlu Nut Unlit for

TKEXTOX , N. J. , Jan. 80. Dr. Hoary F.
Format ] , ono of the loading pntholoRlsts of
this country , lias made an examination of
tuo milk and moat of tuberculosis cattle at
the requestor the state dairy coimnlsslomr
and takes a docldod stand in opposition to
tbo prevailing vlows on the subject. Ho
sa.vstbatbo is convinced that the daiiRois
from the use of milk and moat ot cattle
affected by tuberculosis are much over
drawn. Ai tbo doctor says , authorities
U Iff or as the effect of thn USD of milk and
meat of cattle alTcotoil by tuberculosis , but
Iho examination is just made showing the
dnncor has been greatly overestimated. Ex
periments were made on some culnoa pics
which were Inoculated in tlio anterior cham
ber of the eye with samples of milk , butafter
olKht weeks uo tuborculoo bacill were dis
covered.
Dr. Formad also made an examination of
the moat of cattle affected with the disease ,
but has never been able to iind any bacill.
Ho thinks the only objection to the use of
this milk is that it is less nourishing than
the milk of healthy cows. There Is little or
uo danger of catching the disease from it.

Miss Mitchell mill Mlsn Johnson llclil for
th Killing 1 I'roilii Ward.
McMrms , Tonn. , Jan. 30. The grand Jury
this afternoon handed In its decision in the
Ward-Mitchell murder caso. The result of
their deliberations is that both pirls are in-
dlctod and the charge sot opposite their
names will road : "Murder in the flrst do-
grco. "
There are two counts , ono charging that
the accused murdered Freda , alias Frederica ,
Ward , with a razor , and the other indicating
the woupou used as an "instrument unknown
to the grand jury. "
The object of presenting two counts is to
guard against tbo possibility of tbo defense
showing that the cutting was done with
some instrument ether than a razor.
It may bo stated that the razor used by
Miss Mitchell has not yet been found. Tbn
routine'of the lifo ol the two young girls at
tno jail remains unchanged. No ono except
members of their families Is allowed to see
them , and nothing now has developed in this
most remarkbblo affair.

race from early times up to the present. Urn
was followed by Mate Nnjon Cinoa , son ot
Standing Boar , who , after dwelling for somW
tlmo upon bis own tribo's manners and cusc

was an endless west before them , aug ,
enough land for nil men If they
dealt honestly. So they listened to
the whlto mon when they said : 'Lot
us make n treaty. ' Every tlmo they made a
treaty they broke It. Every time they broke
it they had a fight. Every llmo they hod n
light they killed many Indians. Every tlma
they Ulllcd so many Inulans they said to the
remaining Indians , 'Lot us make a new
treaty , for you do not need so much land now ,
since your brothers have gone to heaven. '
They hoped at last to have no Indians loft to

dlanwas the dead Indlnn. This Is what the , ?
call the Indian question , and you will not
wonder that the Indlnn thinks that uinonp
the white people this question is : 'How loaf/
