From the Insurance Monitor for january
Hartford yuniOr.

We have only to look back to the front
edge OF the present century to lind the IN
surance creation at the Connecticut metropo-
lis without form and void-nihuF Ft! We al
know that "what man has done man ma!
do; and when we remember what goot
things have been done. and in what brie1
time, in Hartford Senior, why should we
not expect a repetition OF them III an
other and more southern. latitude? More
than once we have had occasion TO call ut.
tention to the rapid and successful pro-
gresS OF insurance matters in Mobile,
Ala. III that city there have been
growing up in healthy, quiet way slX
or seven tire and marine insurance com.
panies and two life companies, which have
gathered IN since the close OF the war the
handsome sun OF three million dollars-be-
sides paying expenses, losses, and divl-
dendS. Beginning with nothing, this for a
ten years work, on a limited field, IS tell
ing record for the economy and industry OF
the officers. Some time ago five Of these
companies united to do a general agency
business, and for year past we have been
advertising in our columns the IH00.le IN
dertrriterS.
They have extended here and there-St.
Louis, Louisville, Chicago, New York, Phil

cies. eastern fashion, in Michigan, Kentucky,
and Missouri. The last move was in regu-
lar Hartford stylc-the creation OF "West-
ern Department" under the charge OF an
acc omplished agency underwater, with
headquarters in Chicago.
Mobile is Il stcady-goinS place. Though
not large, it has a business in cotton and in
shipping that makes heavy money transac-
tons with New York, where the principal
Mobile merchants are well known. They
are mostly OF the old-schooi type, solid, not
showy, and have wholesome notions OF
economy. Nearly all Of them are interested
in their insurance companies. Despite the
drawbacks. political and financial, OF past
years. the companies have pushed steadily
ahead The Mobile Underwriters has
81, ,2OO, 900 assets, and is IN orthodox men,
Der OF the National Board.
The extension OF the business northward
is the right thing scattering risks is safer
that is the why and the way the eastern
companies have gone South and West. In
insurance there is no North. no South, and
all companies that bring US solid indemnity,
like the Underrr,terS," we welcome them
and wish them well. We hope Mobile will
continue her well-begun work, and become
rs well known for her good insurance COM
panles as that perfect type OF all insurance
cities, Hartford, in the East.
