Sturgis advertiser. (Sturgis, Dakota [S.D.]) 1887-1???, 1888-12-13

The large increase in the business Of
Of the New York Life in Iowa is due to-
the history Of unequal profits earned by
that company and to its payment Of
heavy dividends on IFS maturing tontine
policies, which for years have exceeded
the dividends paid on any other plan Of
insurance or by anyother company. and
to the efficient and able management of
it's general agent, who has been connect
ed with the company for many years.
Gilbert A. Smith has made Sioux City
his headquarters for several years and
his general Offices are now located in
this city, through which business from
Iowa, Nebraska and Dakota passes, and
under his management in 1887 the New
York Life wrote 10 per cent. more bust
ness in Dakota, SO per cent. more in
Iowa and $50 per cent more in Nebras-
ka than any other company.

by the fumes of burning coal oil and
could have been put out had there been

The people here believe that somebody

TIE TITLE ~, LANnA

Sioux City dispatch: The Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railway
company to-day filed petition in the
United States district court, praying
that title to $4,000 acres Of land in this
county be confirmed in the railroad
company. These lands were conveyed
to the state of Iowa in trust for the com
nany, and by the state reconveyed to
the government, because the company
failed to comply with the conditions OF
the land grant. Last fall the interior
department declared the lands open to
settlement, and there are several hun-
bred settlers on the land. The petition
asks for an injunction restraining
the secretary of the interior
from issuing patents for the lands. Jt
at least involves long period of litiga-
ton and vexed question Of title.
