Representative Cole has aletter from

The shareholders here in the State
Mutual Aid Association Of Columbus
held meeting at the court house last
night for the purpose Of investigating
their mode Of doing business. There are
some three or four hundred members in
this county, and the frequent assess
ment for dues has become . big thing.
Suspicious have been entertained for
some time that there was crookedness in
paying of the death claims, and q meet
ing was held about month ago. The
q aiiuster for the Association was
present, and succeed in temporarily al
laying the suspicions Of - portion of the
members by big array Of figures and

Others were not 20 easily satisfied, and
corresponded with parties with whom
settlement of policies had been made.
They ascetained that in the case of Mrs.
Bradley. of Lebanon. Ohio. whose hus-
band held &5. 600 policy. q compromise
had been affected for $975. John Cole
man, Of this county, held policy for

paying back the assessments he had
pay ed in, about $75.
In the Bradley case the members were
assessed one dollar each, and as the
number Of shareholder 10 said to be
about ten thousand, there was evidently
big margin for somebody's pocket. Res

last night to push the investigation, and
