There Is one great trust that boasts
of being a trust. It claims that it does
good by virtue of being a trust. This
is the grc.it insurance trust conijiosed
of nver Bi) companies In the I'tilted
Slates. Klght billion dollars Is the sum
that the Insurance companies have ut
risk after a Inlf of a century of splen
did work. Three companies alone have
combined usscts of more than one bill
ion dollars und nearly all of the re
mainder uro possessed of many mill
ions. All operate under the sumo laws,
charge practically tho same rates and
guarantee the same returns to policy
holders, the only difference being tluit
prolits ure paid according to economy
of management and earning capacity.
The 'favorable side of this great
trust Is that no one who Is Informed,
criticises its operations. And the rea
son is simple. The business Is hon
estly constructed, faithfully conducted
and publicity Is faithfully given to all
of its acts. The law compels awor'n
statements to be lilud once a year cov
ering every detail of the business and
the Insurance Commissioner has ut all
times access to the insurance com
panies' books, so that an absolute
check may be kept on thj business in
every dotall. He is an executive of
ficer of state and may verify every
statement made and compel tho com
plete compliance with the law by every
company, which Is ujne to the smallest
fraction of a cent.
I'he Washington Life Insurance Com
pany of New Yorh, nicknamed "The Old
Defender," ha . for 43 years carefully
guarded ht Interests of Its thousands
of policy-holders In the various (states
of the Union. The progress made by
"the Washington during 1902 was re
markable. The company's statement
shows Increase In assets. 111 surplus. In
reserves, In interest earnings, in new
Insurance secured, and large gains in
insurance In force. A remarkable Bnv
lng in death claims 'was effected, and
the company had a large excess of In
come over disbursements. Nineteen
hundred and three promises to be the
banner year in tho company's history.
The million dollar North Pacific de
partment, with headquarters in Port
land, Ore., contributed largely to the
success of the compuny in 1902, This
agency was established by General
Manager Blair T. Scott about two and
one-half years ago, and has grown from
the smallest to, the largest producing
agency of new-paid premiums In the
Washington's service. WjScott's de
partment would be a large agency if
bleated in New York, Pennsylvania or
any other state .producing a large
amount of life insuruhcee, His new
paid premiums fo: 1 902 were, about
$50,000. Tho Washington's gain In new
insurance .In force calculated on the
puld-for -busis exceeds $4,000,000. N

How Enmity Sprang Up Between

Tbe case of alleged larceny against

dropped by the police bwrauae there is
not sufficient evidence to convict Keith
was recently brought from Seattle by
Detective KranK Snow. It was thought
that he was guilty of stealing some
wearing .apparel from a Portland reel
dence.
"The bringing back of -Curley' Keith
reminds me of the murder of 'Billy'
Meredith, the late Chief of Police of
Seattle," said a Portland police officer
. J ... . NV.... ' t... I ..... .4
Jvw&riuM. 1 ' u per, fjv IVIItmuvu,
"John Keith, one of XJurley's' brothers,
wus the bone of contention over which
Meredith and his murderer, John Consi
dine, dissolved friendship. John was
and still Is a shrewd and clever mam
having the record of being a bunco
artist. Well. Meredith and Consldln
were once fast friend. In fact were once
associated together as partners la a va
rlety theatre at Spokane. Previous to
that, Meredith secured a position on the
Seattle police force as a detective.
Charles Reed was then chief. Considine
sold out bis Spokane interests and moved
to Seattle, where he entered Into the va
riety theatre and gambling business. Un
til then he and Meredith were friends.
Beginning of End.
"Meredith aiso came back to Seattle,
and as he had made a fairly good record
ii a detective and was friendly to Mayor
Mumek, again secured his position as a
detective.
"Right there was where Keith caused
a feud to spring Into existence between
Meredith and Considine. Keith was In
Seattle and was thought to have turned
some big tricks. Meredith exercised his
detective ability and soon landed on
Keith. He arrested him and sent him
"Considine then went to Meredith,
asking that he cease the prosecution of
Keith, Baying that he was hla (Consl
dints) friend, and that he would like to
see lilm let alone In Seattle. Meredith,
however, had very high aspirations, and
although Considine was not aware of it,
his one-time friend wanted to become
Chief of ljlice. lie did not, therefore,
propose to nrop matters, but on tho con
trary pushed the euoe and made It ho
warm for Keith that he would have been
glad to leave the city had he been given
the opportunity to go of hl own ac
cord. Instead, Meredith sent him to
Los Angeles, where lie was wuntcd for
some crime.
"This so enraged Considine that lie
swore eternal vengeance ugainst Mere
dith. From that moment Meredith and
Considine were deadly enemies. Kvery
one talked about It und commented on
toe strange turn of affairs.
Meredith Becomes Chief.
"Chief of Police Reed, seeing the in
cvltablc about to eventuate, tendered nls
resignation to Mayor Humes one after
noon ut 4 o'clock. William Meredith
wus promptly appointed to succeed him.
and thus he rose Into power quickly.
"Having the leins In his hunus. Mere
dith did not forget his urch enemy.
Considine. From the moment he re
ceived bis iappotntment Meredith begun
forcing Considine to the wall. He com
pelled Considine to obey every law.
which virtually cut off the latter'.s
profits. Considine retaliated by a peculiar
route.
"H. R. Cayton, the editor of a weekly
Republican paper, was opposed to Mere
dith's appointment, as he was an nntl
Humes man. One week he culled Mere
uith a grafter, and Meredith filed an ac
tion for criminal libel. During the trial
Considine testified. He swore that
Meredith had protected thieves; that he
had accepted bribe money from them
In Consldine's saloon, and that he was
a notorious grarter. mier, consiaine
sent word to Meredith that If he did not
resign he wpuW publish In a Seattle
newspaper a case wherein Meredith was
alleged to have ruined a young girl.
Driven to Despair.
"Driven to despair. Meredith consult
ed Mayor Humes. That official ud vised
Meredith to resign, and, completely dis
couraged at this, he did so. Every one
knows what followed. Meredith met
Considine in front of Guy's dyug store
'one night and shot at him with a sawed
off gun. Then the duel took place In
which Meredith was killed. Soon after
Mrs. Meredith died, and the two lie side
by side In the tomb, undoubtedly the
victims of enmity created through John
Keith."
