TjKPliY TO " The Question of Assurance." aaatHa.-M.-..-.-.HMH All open letter, In the IxTCLi.teKXCEit, March -1th, being an nnonvmeua at tack en a gmit llnancl.tl Institution et werld-wltle repute, and of unblemished reputation, bended "A Critic's Drastic Kxamlnatlen of the Condition of an In Minttice Cetuiuny," en the authority et " Mera Anen," deiuauda an Immediate nuswiT. The ACTHen of tliU vlle screed and his motive are easily placed. "Mere Anen" lsent Hubert Helmes, of lteadtnif, I'd., who represents the Interests et the Mutual I.tfe, et Xetv Yerk, ami misrepresents the interests of every honor- auie cointeMter in nis uusmess. The motive is te bring discredit en the standing et the Equitable Life As surance Society, because, iiuite recently, these two ureal life companies being debtors te the estate et an esteemed member of the I-aucester Har, recently de ceased, (each lu the amount et $5,000), the Equitable, as usual, tr-iii'int; (til tech' ucali.iM, promptly made payment in full, by sight draft, drawn fAr'snmr rfnj ttiat the proofs et death were received. The consequent public comments en these comparative methods was unpalatable te the representative et the Mutual, hence his animus and ungenerous attack. A willful perversion of facts, by lnuende or mal-lnference is net creditable, nor does such conduct strengthen an anonymous" Critic's"' credibility. It Is notrVnemnrc that prompts llebert Helmes, an Insurance man of setm experience m distorting the sworn statements, et reputaule companies, (accept able te and veritled by the Insurance Commissioners et this and ether State De partments). It Is a mul'ifieu desire te nx'slead the Insuring public who are net informed as te the ethics ami valuations of tbst exact science Life Insurance. All life Insurance policies are script obligations, the total et which are com. puted by thelruii(r tulurrs reduced te jirt.nt Iiiibihliu, by the Company's Stan dard of 4 per cent, intertst for future investments, and according te the form of policy contract and the e-rrtccfency of the individual lives at risk. On the stan dard of H per cent; fei Interest en Investments tha surplus of the Equitable Is t'-W.IOo.lTe.TO. Concerning the 1100,000 of the Capital Stock of the Equitable, ltebert Helmes sas " It is said, Ac." On such authority a slander Is de stroyed by Us own evil Intent. The fuels are, that In 1S-5S the Legislature of the SUte of Xew Yerk enacted that Ne Life Insurance Company could receive a charter t itheut depositing $100,000 with the State, as a guarantee of ildellty. Surely this act of the Legislature must hive been for geed cause, aud possibly points te a want of responsibility in the charters already issued. The Charter et the Equitable Is explicit, that all menejs received and all profits therefrem shall belong te its actite policy-holders ; that the earnings of the Capital Sterk, the property of the Sactety, shall be limited te the legal rate of interest. The Hunintl statement of this Society specifies this in detail. The Equitable is a purely mutual company, without the objection et the " proxy " system of mutual orgauizitien ; a source et danger te the conserva censerva tie management of every mutual company se organized, and a weapon in the hand of etery dtsletnl acent, with which te menace the executive officials. " False lu one, lalse in everything," is a legal axiom that destroys the credi bility of a statement, and an nuonymeui slander has no weight in evidence, but Is a lit tool for a tricksttr. Mr. II, I). Hyde, the President et the Equitable, re quires no defense by the subordinate agents. A gentleman of high standing for honor and humanity, the status of the Equitable Is a tit monument te his execu tive ability, ami a fair answer te all irresponsible defamers who spit their spite at reputations that tower above their own standard or comprehension. An anonymous sneer is made at Mr. Itegister, the General Manager of the Equitable, at Philadelphia, which requires no answer but contempt, ltebert Helmes, of Heading, well knows that any agent of eny company can gitc ninty any amount of Insurance te " influential men," provided the agent pajsthe re quired premium te the cempanv. This is an expensive method of advertising ter the azent, but it is done in Heading. Mr. Register, in the past 2 years, has transacted ever J00,000,000 of busluess, geed Equitable insurance, citheul n sin gle laic suit. Can the General Agents of the Mutual Life prove the same 'i A slur, as wicked as it is silly, that the Equitable " despises the hand of hon est toil," Is a tit terminal te a malicious article from ltebert Helmes, who knows better, and should act with some sense of honor, if only for the respect due te the great company he represents ; otherwise, my sole reply te future diatribes, from" Mere Anen," will be the publication of a scathing rebuke te this same Rebert Helmes, bv 27i CArenfcfe, -Vetr Yerk City, August iT, JSSj, for similar bad practices. " Manufacturing and dlssemlnatiug literature et the anonymous and malicious order." THE QUESTION OF ASSURANCE as between the Equitable and the Mutual is simply one of a selection, both are great mutual companies of recognized work. The measure (by finance) is relia ble, and from the sworn reports as accepted and veritled by the Insurance Com missioners. The Equitable Life Assurance Society is te-day the greatest and richest life assurance company In the World. A man Is only worth what remains after paying his debts se also, a company Is worth no mere than Its excess of assets exer liabilities. This is the true test. Let the sworn statements, jauuary ist, iss., attest tneir reiauve standing.

Surplus Company's Standard Premium Income, 1&J A3SUBANCE STATEMENT. New business in 1SS0 Amount of Insurance in lerce TEP.CENTAOE3. Amount of assets for each $100 et liabilities. Ffflenwa ami death claims te amount at risk In every sensn me i-cjuuaeie is larger i-unu me -huium, ui mi u.ucr tum pany, both by financial strength and popularity. The new business et the Equitable Is mere than twice as large as the uew business of the Mutual. By the test of percentages, the Equitable Is mere than fiie times as strong as the Mutual, whilst the economy or management for " Expenses and Death Claims1' is mere favorable te the Equitable than te the Mutual. The Mutual claims te be eldest, It is. The Equitable has accomplished mere in 27 years, than the Mutual In 32 jears. The Mutual states that " All claims are practically Incon testable and paid immediately en acceptance of proofs of death, en the ether hand the Equitable contracts that Incentestlble policies are absolutely Indisput able aud paj able immediately en receipt of proofs of death. Acceptance may and often does In the case of the Mutual, come a long time after the receipt et Honorable competition is fair and commendable In every business ; at this the Equitable fears no comparison, and its representatives are ever ready te main tain its honor by honest methods. Agency controversies are te be deprecated. They are disapproved of by the officers et all reputable companies, and cost time and money. The cost of this unnecessary expense, by this card, la borne by the subscriber, net by the policy-holders of the Equitable, who are respectfully In vited te seek any information they may desire concerning these statements made, of the officers of this Society ; or of the Insurance Department which con serves their Interests. J. L. BUTLER, Special Agent, The Equitable Life Assurance Company, of the U. S., Stevens Heuse, Lancas ter, Pa. There is probably tie ether financial institution in the world whes anuual statement Is looked for with mere eagerness than that et the Equitable Life As. snrance Society. It is net common te speak of life insurance societies as "flnan ctal institutions," as we have done above ; but the Equitable is, without doubt, net only the largest life insurance society, but necessarily one of the largest financial Inr.titutiens in the world. When It takea into account that tta net ledger assets en the first of January, 1S7, were ever rs.OOO.OOO, and that this almost inconceivable amount represents money in one shape or another. It will be nuickly seen that it Is, Indeed, a financial Institution. ThewJn(iepni' has been trying te teach the people of the United States for the last thirty-five years, net only the absolute value, but the necessity et life Insurance, and we have rea son te feel proud of the success of our efforts, receiving as we de almost daily assurances from all parts of the country that we have induced thousands of peo ple te become members of geed life Insurance societies, and have prevented ether thousands from becoming members of the cheap assessment societies. The Equitable offers a very great variety of different forms et policies te meet the wants of all insurers, some men are se situated tbat they can pay their pre mium in one payment ; ethers wish te pay it In five, ten or twenty payments ; ethers wish tepay aunually during life; some wish a tontine Delicy.and the Equitable meets the wants of all.
