Few people over estimate the Importance
Of insurance. Indeed there are few who
give the matter the attention it demands
Before insurance Companies came in vogue
when a man Inst the product of years OF
toll BY the devUuring element, his neigh
bors would contribute their mite to assist
him. But flow when companies sre form.
ed, which, for small percentage, will re
pair in great measure the loss, no mar
should be dependent on the charity of his
neighbors, And, in this connection we
take pleasure IN referring the reader n the
statement of the Auditor of State about the
condition Of the International Fire Insurance
Company, of New York. This is a sound
company, and they have entrusted their bu-
siness in this region to that clever gentle
man, and good business man, Joseph Raj
ston, OF Cadiz Junction.
In the same connection we would ask at.
tention to the Etna Live Stock Insurance
Company. This is branch of Insurance
which is becoming more popular every day,
anl deservedly so. Ralston & Spencer are
the Es,rict agents for this company, and
il could 1t have been entrusted in better
hands.

Colonel Joseph Holmes. Of Short Creek
township, Harrison county, died, at the re-
sidencs Of his son Asa Holmes, on Sunday,
the 10th, and was buried at DickersOn's
church. on the following Tuesday. He had
arrived st The ripe age Of niasreigh.
Col. Holmes was one Of the earliest set
tiers in Eastern Ohio. When il was q
trackless wilderness, he trayersed it as a
cout or Indian spy. serving under those
gallant and daring leaders, Captains Nc
Cu;lough and Mahan. While in this peril
Gus service he passed over the ground Ooms
posing the farm on which he has lived 80
long, and taking fancy to it, he afterward
obtained it from the Government.
Col. Holmes served iu the war Of 1872,
and commanded company composed main
ly OF his 1eighbors.
Gel. Holmes was good citizen AMI an
an upright man. He was, during his whole
life, an earnest Democrat, voting for every
Democratic President from Jefferson to
and continuing in the faith till
the hour Of his death.
Thus, one by one, the heroes and patri-
ots Of the past. pass from us. but the death
of none will he more sincerely regretted
han that Of Col. Holmes. The old pion-
sers will soon all be taken from us, but
heir memory will be cherished so long as
gratitude shall be an emotion of the heart
