The Northwestern Mutual Life a
Mutual Company in the , ,
' - '. : Truest Sense.'', 'r '';
(yrosi the Iasaraace Observer ef Aerfl 1, loS.)
Nothing could be more timely 'than
th report of the examination of th
Northwestern Mutual Life - Insurance
Company by the insurance ' department
of Wisconsin. . It smphaslses a fact
which cannot be too persistently urged,
that In the recent disclosures of bad
methods, not life insurance has come
under Indictment, but those Individuals
who- hav been responsible for-tbe evil
exposed. ' ' ,1 - ... ' "
The Northwestern Mutual Life Is. a
company which - standa as a distinct
type. In slae it outrenks all other com
panies except the three giants. It la
so large that wr there anything In
herently - bad In magnitude It would
ahow th ill effecta. On the contrary,
however,, th Northwestern Mutual Life
presents, all the merits of the conserve'
tlve small company while retaining all
the legitimate .aggressiveness of th
big' company. .":",.:.'..-'-.."'
The report of the recent Investigation
begun early In November. 1104, 'and con
tinued to th end of .January last,'' 1
most lmpresstv In those features which
show the line of ' demarcation clearly
drawn between it and those companies
which of late have com In for wide
spread criticism.- Tills company, with
Assets aggregating nearly $15,800,080.
is shown to be managed with the aame
sealous sense of duty to th policy hold
er which exists In ths most conserva
tively managed life insurance compa
nlea. With an- annual income exceeding
3(, 800,000. th company la managed aa
economically as though Its income were
One tenth that amount. 1
One of the moat impressive features
of the report relates to the safeguards
which exist' against the abuse of th
proxy system, which tn ' aome mutual
companies haa rendered the policy hold
ers utterly Impotent to oontrol the man
agement. . As long ago . aa 117 the
oompany established the rule that all
proxies must . be executed within
days preceding the meeting "at which
they are to be used. No one Is permit
ted to vote on more than 18 proxies,
and "no- officer, trustee, agent or em
ploye" of. the company I permitted to
vote aa proxy for an absent member. It
would be difficult to devise? a 1 surer
method of preventing the packing of a
meeting with proxies. . Under this plsn
tt Is possible for anlndlvldual policy
holder to command consideration.
We shall hav to forego any elabor
ate review of the financial condition of
the company as found by ths examiner.
Suffice that ths company . is stronger
than Its own conservative valuation of
assets had ah'own It to be. Of the dis
tinguishing merits of the-company-we
shall aay more. And. first, as to Its
economical management What stronger
endorsement could any company aak
than the following In the report of th
examiner: -
- One ef the prtnHpal aetata Is whleh I wish te
direct year attentloa la this partlea ef the
eowpeny's ststeneat la the low eosnalMMia
rate which Is paid te the Mteecy force for the

When it is remembered that the great

companies which have been conspicuous
aa bualneaa gettera arises from extrava
gant commissions ana salaries, xno se
cret of the North-western's large divi
dends to policy - holder Is here " dis
closed. - ;- - "
The nubile of late naa -received con
alderabla enllshtenment as to the In
vestment methods of certain 00m Denies.
It has seen how closely allied with Wall
atreet have been the relations of aome
companies. The Northwestern Mutual
nas entered inco no aucn alliances, j n
report aays that Ita. nearly 171,880.880
of bond a "consist of allt-edged tJovern
ment, municipal and steam railway
bonds,' and among th last named Is
found none which Is a second mortgage
bond: or bonds Issued upon the deposit
of the stock of railroads aa security.
Tha eomnanv does not Invest Its fund
In atreet rallwav. electric light or in
dust rial corporation bonds." The com
pany la not interested In any syndicate
operations, nor nns it , one cmi w
veated In the atock of any corporation.'
Tt owna no banks or truat companies.
Neither, does it keep large auma of
money on deposit in banks, where It
may be found of use In pushing- Wall
street vent urea. These are negative
vlrtuea or a positive vaiue.
After referring to other commendable
features In the management of the com
pany, the report aaya: "The oompany
la a mutual organisation in tne atrict
eat and beat sense."
While the eomnanv Issues semi-
tontine policies the moat of its business
Is on the annual dividend basis. The
aeml-tontlne policy holders are treated
with exact Impartiality. The same
rate ef dividends is apportioned to the
