There >u (crbnonloni dcb.tr oeer the bill, nch aide cber.lnf the other with the grossest partisanship and with having dragged the State educational system 1n the pollllc.l mire. Colooel Fuller waa appointed to the . office one year ago by the Board of Bdocatloo. which then bad a Democratic majority. Fuller la a etalwart Republican. and the Democrats alleged that he •ecu red the ofllce through a deal. The reault to day Indicates that the Democrats will push' through- all their caucuj meaiurea of this session. Capt. bmltb. of Camden, said that If the Demo, erats of New Jersey proposed war to the knife, the Republicans at Washington, aflcr March 4, would carry It on to the The liquor taw proposed by Prealdent Werts will be amended In Democrats caucus to-morruw by the Insertion of a peorWon whereby, on the petition of SO per cent, of the voting populellon of any municipality or township, a special election may be celled to lncrcate the minimum license fee to bay extent deemed advisable. The House touDy passed a bill which enables Newark and Jersey City to provide their own water lupply. Several labor measures were Introduced and favorably reported, including one providing for a Saturday half-holiday. Both Houses will hold short sessions to-moi-row morning, after which the Democrats will go into cancu-. to shape party legislation. The House Judiciary ComnflUce gave a public hearing on the bill which provideo for the Australian system of voting. Colonel Price, of Newark, found (salt with the bUl In an Its sections, and contended that it waa erode and complicated, and that It would be an absurdity to place It on the statute book. He was In favor of the principle of the bill, how. Imw, N. J., Feb. 14. — 1 The liquor queetlon la banging over the Democrats of tide Legislature like the sword of ( Damocles and they can neither eat, sleep nor drink without having the bugbeer before them. They held another caucus this afternoon, and after three hours hard work adjourned without having made a step In advance toward a solution of the problem. There are two apparently represented by Senators Biker and Bmllh and Assemblyman Higgles and Ilambrlght, who will con. sent lo no radical change In the present law. The other element la championed by. Weidenmeyer, O'Neill, Mutchler, ' Hoover and Bohmelt, who are in tbo business themselves. The go-betweens form a majority of the caucus, but are hd pleas t> bring about any arrangemen! which would please both extremes. Gov. Oreen to day signed the bW which deposes State Superintendent Fuller from ofllce. Fuller's suceeswt will he named by the Governor next waek. Senator Baker Introduced a bill which provide! thai all theatres shall hrve flic.proof drop-curtains, and all factories, workshops, etc., shall have flroeaespes above the second floor.

The Order of the Iron Hall The Old Line Inauranee Co. 'a It seems In order for aome one lo have * a word lo savin favor of the Iron Hall, a society, which has, since ita or. . ganizaUon, 'done a vast amount of , ' good. A prominent author has mid, i "Wo can rcai on ourselves Into any. , . thing;" It baa also been recognized "that , figures cannot lie," and It is also aaser- f ■ To all'these we reply that it Is first J t m Miliary lo be sure that our 'premises' ( . bly, arithmetically and logically correct, ( » but practically wrong. | > Qaery— Why should the inauranee j , companies be to dtahona lo crush the » Iron Hall J , ( Answer— Because a eo-cperall»e so- , I clely like tba latter must of necemlty Injure the f oijuer, by taking the power out t o of the hands of monopoly. Such Xn or. - - der as the -Iron Hall proves beyond a t II doubt that policy holders in insurance , i- companies are massing millions to hen- , e efit a few dlreelors of a speculative turn , of mind ; and further demonstrate" the , e pomlbility of a society conducted on the , r principles of cooperation, paying Its . benefits la members at cost- | The following taken from The Na- , o lional insurance Journal, shows clearly j ,, the madua operand, of old line insurance. , o and cites such lnalaoces as The Mutual , Life, New York Life, Mutual Benefit, of , i- New Jereey, and Northwestern, of MB- , " wankee: | 0 "Now, If the company the man ap. j a piles for Insurance in Is upon tba same | n plan as the Mutual life, they would charge him, at the age of forty years, ■ c 832 a years for each #1,000 applied for. j it When we analyse that #83, we find that ( only #9.30 offsets the coal of his risk. ( b The excess represents the expanse ol ( i- management (#8.95) and the reserve . J (#18.08). Now the old concerns gel , il from the Insured #8. #5 In expenses alone, , *- which la almost as much as they take , h tor the coat of the risk. The reserve Is , :• #13.08 more than la necessary to pro. a tect the risk, which makes #33.01 the I i- Insured has lo pay to get'#9.29 worth'of life Insurance (per the American tables | n of mortality ana ij per cent. Interest. 1 , >- Consequently, If a life oomymny should , - issue 10,000 policies at the age of forty, , J and Ita 10,000 members should all die ■ 1 during the year, the company's resources , • to meet the #10,000.000of liability would . r be Jutt #01,000. Again, a man at the , ■ agt of forty la expected to live thirty < - years, hence the Ufcoosnpxny could on- | ly realize #273. 70 from him as against j r his mortality rirsl ; yet they agree to | ■ give him #1,000 absolutely, ataould he i f die the drat year or the thirtieth year, - , because ihe other #31.01 goes for ex- , • penses, for msnsgement and for the i p manipulators to speculate upon. Now ( » how do the life Insurance companies t propose lo make the #3.29 pay the Ira- , 1 bllltiea of death, or how Is #378.70 lo , c pay one thousand dollare #(1,000)? " | s Herein lies Ure solution of the prob. > i lom of Insurance, and Urla la where the , . Iron llall Ucads upon the sacred ground | t of monopoly and exposes lis weakness | i and Its avarice. • , It now becomes our duty then to ex- | 0 plain as we have often done before, i a What la the Iron Hall ? e II is a bcneflclal society. Its and and aim Is hi Improve the coo- . dIUon of Ita members, morally, todally, j 1 intellectually and financially. j l It la a mutual co-operative society. I I Members are find admitted lo the So. J t olal Degree bv Initiation, and enjoy all j 1 the privileges of the nodal and lotellec- | I lual Intercourse frith other members, and 1 all 'fraternal' benefits. i Candidates for admlaalon must he 18 | and not over 88 yean. To become a member of the Benefll r t Fund It Is necessary to pass a rigid medr leal examination. c This being astir factory the Supreme s Sluing then bsuea a certificate ranging ' r from #300 lo #1,000. Certificates mature in seven years. A certificate becomes null and void , ' whenever a member ceases lo pay as- j 1 scssments. 1 1 S.ck benefits are allowed from #8 to r #38 per mttlf, for 30 weeks, equalling ' ' half the amount of Certificate. ! ' Members are InUeneflt In 00 days ' granttog of cerMemte. ■ ' Sick benefits are deducted when the | 1 naif the amount of certificate can be ' 1 drawn on dotal dlaabUllv or at death at- a ' ler membership of 3 years. t Amount paid in on assessments can 1 bo withdrawn at death or heirs can pay I assessments till maturity of certificate £ ' AsaeaameuU are not limited. ' 1 Amount paid on assessments, from ' ; GO cents to #3 80. Quarterly dues of #1 to support Local * [ Reserve fund, 90 per oenL of usees- I menu, and te under the control of Local ' The Supreme Sitting Is elected by J delegates from Local Branches every c 2 years. ti Local Branches are formed by elected P All officers in Supreme Sitting snd " Branches, who are responsible for 5 the funds, give bonds of good d security. « A draft oo the Iron Hall will be hon- ? ored by any bank in tba country. Now, where does the money come Receipts from assessments. it Profits from lapses. k Ketone Fund. Anyone who will take the time to ,t makes simple calculation can readily lo aee how the contracts are fulfilled. " AVpreeenl the Order numbers shoot

44,000. The avcrago assessment la #3.00. J ; On each assessment #08,000 la collected. , I If then a debt of #80.000- It due at this i • moment fropi the Older, there Is $88.. < 000 to meet It, plus Uta Reserve Fund, ] which amounts to #800,000. The whole question then resolves it- < self Into this, that when the Order has I a debt to pay to members, either In sick- ' ocas, death or matured certificates, all ■ the members subscribe their ahere lo- 1 warda its payment. ' The only cameoilap In which caleu- 1 1st Ion as, In say tense, rulrr lnio the ' problem is, "What wffi It probably coat each member to obtain the amount due the maturity of h|e certificate *" Id reply, ire point to tba experience { of Insurance companies, and say, if they ! can pa r4 1.000 fri)m 437" 70. so can we.
