Ohio Farmers Insurance Company.

In behalf of some of the policy holders in
this company, we last week addressed note
to Major ]. F. Oglevee, Auditor of State,
making inquiries about certain statements
published in the Insurance Journal and
which we published two weeks since. In re-
spOnse, Major Oglevee says: ut is not true
as set forth in said extract that ever made a
demand upon the o. F. lns. company for the
sum of taxes levied upon its reinsurance fund
amounting to, in the aggregate, the sum of
81, ,903, ,94090. 1t is true that this last named
amount has been directed by me to be placed
upon the tax duplicate of Medina county for
taxation, in which, if | am finally successful,
will rause the company to pay additional
taxes amounting to somewhere near $50, 900,
which will not in the least effect the solvency
Of the company, for it has good assets aggre-
eating to possibly 81, 900, ,0O0." Mai. OgIevee
informs US that the Auditor OF Medina county
has been restrained from placing the amount
mentioned above on the tax duplicate, and
that the action is awaiting decision of sim.
liar action in Cincinnati, which is in the
courts, and which has been decided favorably
to Maj. Oglevee's views in the superior court,
except that the court held that only the taxes
OF 1882 could be collected. The whole mat,
ter will soon be decided by the supreme court,
and our State Auditor feels CT nident that he
has taken the right view of the question, sand
that the result will he, that there will be add
ed to the taxable property of the State from
two to two and half millions of dollars Of
taxable valuation, and that too from corporate
property which can always afford and should
be compelled TO pay its full share of taxes
This litigation should not for moment affeo
the business OF the Ohio Farmers, as believ,
it to be one OF the soundest companies ther,
Is in the State"
Our readers can understand from this tha
the statement published by the 'Insuranc,
Journat was false and misleading. 80 far q.
tnis matser is concerned, there is nothing il
II 10 in1ure IN the least to credit OF the Obi,
