Tbe Aetna insurance company.

In commenting upon the annual state
ment of the Aetna Life Insurance Com
pany, of Hartford, Conn, which appears in
another column, it is worthy of note that
while there were such marked gains in all
essential particulars, the total business
was conducted at percentage of cost no
greater than in previous years. There
must be a cause. good and sufficient rea-
son, for the remarkable fact that the
stormy and warlike year of 1898 was the
most prosperous and successful one in the
history of the Aetna Life. There must be
some logical explanation of the fact that
last year the Aetna comprised results ex-
ceeding those of any year through which
it has come: Increasing its assets over
So, 642 900, its surplus over 1857, 600. and
its total insurance in force over SIS, 4os,-
os4. The total income, of SIS, 1868, SOS, o.
thelargestin its history, and over $500, 343
larger than it was in 1897, makes this great
life and accident insurance company the
largest and strongest corporation of its
kind in the world. We think it must be
apparent to the sincere inquirer that these
surprising results are due to the strong,
steady, conservative policy of the com
pany's management, to the entire absence
of boom or racing tactics, and the
substitution therefor of steady, progress
sive systematic effort, to wise campaign
ing and cautious financiering. To every
gain that this great company has made it
is justly entitled. and truly may it be re-
corded that its position has been honora.
bly, and faithfully won.
This Company is carrying the bulk OF
the life insurance in this section. The
Aetna has been paving steadily increas-
ing dividends for twenty-six years, which
is record unequalled. and many pa
irons IN this locality have received much
larger dividends each year than was
promised.
