mitted the best reports during the en
tire existence of the company. This
company, while purely an assessment

amount to policy holders for losses,
as will he shown by reference to the
statement published in another col
umn.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year: R. M. Gaffney,
president; G. W. McKown, vice-presi
dent; J. Eh Jefferies, secretary and
treasurer; A. Bettis, general agent;
D. \\\ Cooper, assistant general agent;
and three directors for each township.
As will he shown by the statement
published in another column .this com
pany has now on hand a nice surplus
which is being loaned to members of
the association. The increase in in
surance for the past twelve months
has been $52,000. The officers of this
company propose, by economical busi
ness management, to furnish undoubt
ed indemnity at the leas* cost consist
ent with perfect safety.
