New Jersey Mutual Life Insurance
Company, of Newark. N. J.

This is one of The solid life compa aies
transacting business in this State. and
which is annnaliyFadding to the volume
Of its risks, preference that has been
especially conspicuous during the. last
three years, within which period its sur.
plus fund has doubled. At the close OF
last year the company had 1O.753 poll.
cies ia force, insnring SlY,0l3,073, and
to the date Of October in the current
year it had issued 3,1OO new policies, in.
suring 100000 e->s
The diligence. 1and zeal of the man.
agement in pursuit of business, and the
skill and sagacity exercised by it both
in underwriting and finance, have brought
to it a large Accession of policy holders,
a circumstance that shows that when the
public areedispesed 10 analyze annual
statements they do so with discrimina-
ton and ability and to the profit of a
sound company. The New Jersey Mu-
tual rests its claims on the future upon
the doiDss of the past, and we think it
cannot ubase, its hopes of increasing
greatness upon sounder foundation
The rate of progress of the company
during the last three years shows how
little it has been affected by the. adver-
sitv that has prevailed throughout the
States, o fact most forcibly evidenced
by the following tabular statement of
the assetseapdi surplus between the years
1872 and 1884, sr

and that its expenses OF management
were considerably under the average

r The company has no policies, in ;the

in these States.
This company has been especially
fortunate III its selection Of agents. Mr..

dent of the Middle Department, has

During the. month of May he issued
over six hundred policies. Colonel
c H. Moore, of Columbus, has the
General Agency for Ohio, in which
State he has brought the company to
the foremost rank During the month

strineency Of The times, this is what we

"WHEREAs, Differences OF opinion
have arisen amongst the people Of this
vicinity interested in the location Of the
depot of the Bellaire and Southwestern
Ra lroad, therefore,
Resolred, That while some Of us
would have preferred an approach to
.Woodsfield of the Bellaire and South
western Railroad to what is known as
rthe tan yard route, yet our interest in
the road is such that we are content
with what is known as the Geo Young
route, that route having been found to
be a cheaper and better route
Resofced, That we have full conf
dence in the honesty, integrity end ca.
pacity Of S L. Mooney and W.T.. Nor
ris, The Directors selected at this point,
to prosecute the building of said road
to its completion
L'esolred, That for the good of the
enterprise we are willing TO sacrifice our
individual preference as to the location
of the Depot"
