INSURE SUCCESS
BY USING
GEE VA11T ADS
ORIGIN OF LIFE INSURANCE
.
raternal Societies It Back to tbe
Dawn of Eiitory.
MODERN FRATERNAIS ARE PROSPEROUS
and aelentlga Principles ill
Boa ad to "aeeeed In
Their Mlaslea. V
Fraternal life Insurance Interests every
body who has A spark of affection for
those dear to them. It Is a system of re
cent origin. In Its present form, althoinch
societies with similar ends have existed
as far back' as history goes. It la . gen
erally conceded that the first form of life
lnsuranoe was the fraternal idea, the mil-
Co 1 pledge of individuals to rare for the
sick, bury the dead and pay such sum.
as might be rained by mutual contribu
tions or as stipulated by the articles of
the association to the heirs. Soon after
the civil war in America there waa a
great activity in life Insurance, and a large
number of stock and mutual com
paniea were organised and were seeking
business. The premium rates were ' con
sidered beyond the means of laboring men,
and they were ready to grasp any propo
sition promising mortuary benefits at con
alderible lens cost. Out of this condition
grew the first American fraternal Insur
ance society, orgsnlsed at Mesdvllle, Pa.,
in ISfi. under the name of "The League
of Friendship, Supreme Mechanical Order
of the Sun." Its objects as expressed in
Its preamble mere "the protection of the
worklngmen." J. 3. Upchurch joined it,
but, dissatisfied with Its construction, with
drew and later in the same year formed
the Ancient Order of United Workmen.
This soolety was a purely mutual organ
ization 'and made provision for the pay
ment of not to exceed $2,000 on the death
of a member. The amount to be paid on
each benefit call or assessment was $1, and
the limitation of age was 21 years at join
ing and nc medical examination was re
quired.
First Graded Assessments.
Tn 1873 James A. Demaree and seventeen
United Workmen members founded tha
Knights of Honor, which differed from
the first organization in that it deter
mined that members over 45 should pay
greater sums as assessments than thOTe
tinder that age. The Ancient Order of
United Workmen abandoned the uniform
11 rate and adopted the graded plan. In
1S78 tha yellow fever epidemic In tbe south
gave the fraternals their severe test, and
It waa then prophesied that they could not
withstand the strain. The Knlghta of
Honor had 193 deaths during that year
and paid out $386,000 thereon. The pay
ment of every death claim at this critical
time assured the people that the fraternal
insurance order had come to stay. Dur
ing the next ten years the Royal Arcanum,
National Union. Maccabees. Royal League,
Knights and Ladles of Honor, Modern
Woodmen of America and five or six other
societies came into existence, adopting the
Knights of Honor Idea of graded assess
ments. A .myriad of speculative or down
right swindling societies followed In the
wake of tbe better organized bodies, tak
ing advnr e of the prestige gained by the
yellow fever epidemic test, and many per
sons were deluded by tha attractive plana
of Insurance offered to gull the public.
These swindling concerns were most nu
merous In Pennsylvania, Massachusetts
and Maryland, and the state legislatures
set about Investigating them and provid
ing means for protecting the publio. Sev
eral of the swindlers were arrested and
others In the confidence, schemes were
forced to go out of business. The genuine
fraternal Insurance societies were bene
fited by the investigations and continued
to gain In publio eateem.
Wet Pally Developed.
Fraternal life tnauranca Is still largely
in a chrysalis condition. State legislatures ;
have enacted laws controlling the socle
ties, and the very few that hay a "com
bine" lo control will sooner or later be
curbed by compulsory legislation.
The weakness of tha fraternal life In
surance system today Is that there are so
many societies that Ignore the mortality
experience requirements and are deluding
tholr members by only collecting from
them a sufficient amount of assesmejit
or premiums each month to meet the pres
ent deaths Incurred, and are making no
provision to provide for the payments of
death claims In the future. The failure of
such aoctetles Is inevitable unless they
change their plans. Some of the older
societies have been compelled to Increase
ths monthly contributions to suoh an ex
tent aa to create apprehension among the
membership, who, tn reality should not de
mur, because they have been getting their
protection ' at less ' than cost, and now,
when the mortality reaches its normal con
dition must be met by Increased contribu
tions. In no Instance has the Increased
cost been nearly aa lari? as the amount
charged by the Insurance companies.
New aoctetles Have Reserve.
Most of the recently organised societies
are profiting by the experience of the more
careless, not to say ignorant pioneers, and
are accumulating a reserve, equalizing or
emergency fund. The rates of assessment
are higher than in the careless and Im
provident societies and higher than pres
ent actual needs, but the surplus is in
vested In Its reserve fund and the Interest
compounded, so that later on. Instead of
a burdensome Increase of assessmsnt rate,
or Increase of the number of assessments.
or possible failure of the society, tha
assessment rate is not to be raised and
the accumulation Is availed"' to meet every
claim In fulL
If a society has made a careful com
putation from a standard table of expe
rience and states to you that the society
must collect a certain rate of assessment
at your age, and that a certain per cent
of this goes Into a surplus fund to be In
vested to meet future actual cost of your
Insurance, then you may feel compare
tlvely certain that you know the price
and can depend , upon It which Is cer
tainly a more comfortable feeling than
that you are getting something for less
than It actually costs and that you will
have to meet the deficiency later on, as
you certainly will have to do If you as
sociate , yourself with any Insurance
scheme that lives from hand to mouth and
has no reserve, equalisation or emergency
tuna.
Blllloa la Beaelts.
American- fraternal Insurance societies
have paid over one billion dollars in death
benefits since their organization. During
1904 new members to the number of 876,931
were admitted to the various orders, and
at the end of that year 4,K79t41J members
were in good standing. At the present
time there are undoubtedly V more than
S,000.(UO iven and women in America de
pending on fraternal beneficiary societies
for benefits at death.
The older societies are combined In a.
national organisation known as the Na
tional Fraternal Congress, while the newer
are members of the Associated Fraternities
of America. Legislation haa been sug
gested by the older societies to compel tho
newer organization to accept an estab
lished basis of assessment or be debarred
from doing business, while the existing
societies were t.ot held to this requirement.
Only four or five states, have adopted this
law. and since then unsuccessful attempts
have been made le agree oa a uniform
bill. The atate Insurance commissioners
have prepared and recommended one that
even more stringent. When the state
laws become uniform and reasonably re
strictive fraternal insurance will assume
the stsndtng In the world of business it
deserves. Commencing In a crude way,
with radius of observation, and with no
knowledge of the immutable laws of mor
tality. It has had to gather its knowledge
by experience, which at beat la a bitter
teacher. The publio Is gradually becoming
educated to the fact that even societies
bound together by vows of fraternal lore
will find their devotees unwilling to trust
to sentiment and fair promises; they de
mand a perfecting of the system, so that
they will be protected from graft and ex
orbitant profits by managers and pro
moters of companies and excessive ex
penses. To pay death, disability and sick
benefit losses at actual rost la the true ob
ject and mission of voluntary contribution
and fraternal life insurance societies.
Meaare la Sebraskn.
Another menace in our own state is the
assumption by state officials that societies
which accumulate a sacred fund to be held
In trust, available to carry out Its con
tracts without distressing its member Jy
extra demands over their established rates
of assessment, shall pay tribute to the
State; an exaction that haa not been re
quired of money making companies. The
success of this exaction will be to compel
every reliable-society to establish Its head
quarters In other states, as no other state
has attempted to thus destroy such so
cieties and rob Us members of their sav
ings deposit. This plan of action, If suc
cessful, will result In the creation of un
reliable societies, similar to those that
have by their own rottenness gone out of
existence. Any Institution prohibited from
accumulating a safety fund cannot become
worthy of public confidence. Its victims
will reap a harvest of disappointment, re
gret and financial sorrow. J. C. ROOT.
OMAtiA AS INSURANCE CENTER
Many Companies Have Hradqnarters
Here aad State Is Grow
ing Raaldly.
The growth of Omaha as an Insurance
center during the last three years has been
very gratifying, not only to the Insurance
fraternity, but to the general public. In
addition to the life Insurance companies
making their headquarters here, there axe
now three stock fire Insurance companies,
whose home officea are located In Omaha,
where their entire tmslnees is transacted.
Nebraska, like a majority of the western
states, is enthuslastlo over home institu
tions, and today if a loyal citizen wants to
insure his home he always gives the prefer
ence to Nebraska companies.
The State Insurance Company of Ne
braska was organized three years ago by
A. 1. Love of Brennan-Love company. The
directors and stockholders of this company
are among the leading business men and
bankers of 'Omaha and of the state. The
company haa a fully raid up cash capital
of $100,000 and a. surplus to policyholders
of $106.ft40.S.
Until recently Omaha as a buyer of high
grade bonds for Investment, outside of a
few estates, was unknown, but probably
no city the size of Omaha, in the west is
today Investing aa much money in high
grade securities as are the Insurance com
panies of this city. The tendency in the
Insurance business, like all others. Is con
centration, and a well equipped agency to
day represents companies doing every
known kind of Insurance. Among the lead
ing agenclea in Nebraska is Brennan-Love
oompany of Omaha, who manage and have
charge of the establishment of agencies
throughout the state for all kinds of Insurance;-
thus a bank or an individual entering
Into the Insurance business, can arrange a
complete outfit of companies from that firm.
Nearly every bank in Nebraska outside
of Omaha has an insurance department
connected with its business, and represents
not only fire and life Insurance companies.
but liability, accident, surety, plate glass
and burglary companies. The State In
surance Company of Nebraska aloha num
bers over 250 bankers throughout the state
aa Its local representatives.
Another significant change In Insurance
methods Is that a merchant or manufac
turer now having a large amount of in
surance to place seldom places It among
a number of agencies as in the past. On
the contrary, he puts his entire insurance
interests in the hands of one agency that
has bad experience, not only in the gen
eral operation of the business, but which
has experienced adjusters and which is
financially responsible for any errors which
might occur. To any large manufacturing
or mercantile concern the Brennan-Love
company, through its newly established
Sprinkler department," now. offers to In
stall at Its own expense a complete auto
matic sprinkler system, contracting for
tha insurance for a period of years, at the
end of which time such system becomes
the property of the manufacturer or mer
chant. This novel proposition haa already
been accepted by a number of our leading
property owners, and there are to be
found today few cities in the west where
more buildings are so equipped than in
Omaha, The advantage offered by ita use
to the Individual plant Is secondary only
to the fact that by a general usage of
such devices widespread conflagrations
would be impossible.- F. J HASKELL,
. Secretary, Brennan-LOve Co.
