MONROE COUNTY
Mutual Fire Insurance Comps

TE Nhe rate of Insurance is one dollar on
H. the thousand dollars insured, after
which payment no subsequent tax will
be levied, except to cover actual loss or
damage by fire, that may fall upon mem
bers of the company.
The nett profits arising from interest
or otherwise, will be ascertained yearly,
for which each member in proportion to
his, her, or their deposit, will have a
credit in the company. Each insurer in
or with the said company will be MEM
Der thereof during the term of his or her
policy. The principle of Mutual Insur-
ance has been thoroughly tested-has
been tried by the unerring test of expert
ence, and has proved successful and be-
come very popular. 1t affords the great
est security against loss or damage by
fire, on the most advantageous and rea-
sonable terms.
Applications for Insurance to be made
in person, or by letters addressed to
WM. K. HAvILAND, Secretary.

THE Commercial and Enquirer are
wrangling over the reputation of the con
tracts for keeping the canals in repair
the one taking the grosnd that the CON
tracts were upon such terms as to be ex-
brilliantly profitable to the contractors,
and the other attempting to prove that
che State is loser, in dollars and cents,
by the act of repudiation Neither of
these considerations have any thing to do
with the real issue. If the contracts
were fair in their inception-if there was
no over-reaching nor double-dealing by
which their, te,ms were effected--if the
conduct of the officers Of the State was
disinterested, and that of the contractors
honest, it makes no difference how huge
the losses Of the one party, or the profits
of the other Gains or losses prospective
or realized, however enormous, supply no
shadow of ground for the reputation.
Nor does the fact-if it is q fact-that
the State has paid more for the repair of
the canals since, than she would have
been required to pay under the contracts,
make the slightest difference. The ques-
ton is one of principle, or it is nothing.
1t is very possible that the contract cost
would have proved in practice to be less
than that under the usually inefficient and
dilatory proceedings of the agents of the
State but is this thing to be set up ir
justification of fraud
Whoca if the State can not, stand up
against this kind of extortionP The con.
tracts were not let to the lowest bidders.
They were distributed, by an arrange
ment partly personal, partly partisan, tc
the favorites of power, upon terms con
siderably higher than the lowest tender
BY these means wrong was not only don'
to the State, but injustice to individuals
Power was used to perpetrate wrong
What is this but tyranny Let the Stat
set an example Of justice, cost what
may. .- ---.. .--..
