A Communication.
Worthington, MINI. !
June 18th, 1899 {

MIR. ED1TOR:- #
In your last weeks I notice Mr..
Kindlund sees fit to commence con-
troversy, and against a circular that l
issued entitled, "Facts for Farmer"
said circular is entitled thus: "A
Hail Insurance Company and the
Supreme Court" and quotes a de-
cision of the supreme court against
the State Farmers Hail & Cyclone
Co., of Waseca. l added the "Facts
for Farmers as complied from the
annual statements madesby the Mu-
tual Hail Insurance Go. for the year
1898 to the Insurance Commissioner.
| did not use Mr.. Kindlund's com
pany for target any more SO than
any other extravagantty managed
company and I am sorry that Mr..
Kindlund should think that 1 am at
tack:ng the AL lance Austin Co. any
m ire 80 than any other company that
is extravagent to the farmers. Mr..
Kindlund says his company last year
added to their guarantee fund $29,-
866. 6.93, and their net assets January
lst, 1899, were 1882, ,788. .2a That is all
right and looks all right bpt let US in
vestigate it a little. Suppose you
take policy in mutual company
for five years and that company is
piling up surplus at the rate of
$4,000 year for five years, at the
end of that time you have helped to
raise that guarantee fund 10 $780, 600.
now then at the end of that term or
at the expiration Of your membership
in such company will that CON-
pany agree to refuna yousyour share
Of that jack-pot3 l hsse an idea
they would raise the betApd, compel
ypu.to lay down: your hand. Il
Mr.. Kindiund says his company
pays cash for all losses as soon al
adjusted; that's all right too, bu:
does their policy say so? No. Their
agreement is to pay all losses by the
first day of December OF each year
and that knocks Mr.. Kindlund's 3
promises sky high.
Mr.. Kindlund takes occasion to say
that some one must be furnishing
me as have been offering $1.OO 10
farmers holding policies in the AL.
lance Austin to turn them in and in.
sure them in what he terms the
wind Bag Company, but
of no avail he says. In anewer to
this will say that several farmers
turned in their Austin policies and
insured in the North Western and
that too without me giving one cent
or offering them dollar for the priv.
ilege: A policy in the North W. 9,
tern Company is limited to tbr. {
per cent. assessment, it's officers sal
aries are also limited, it is ecomom|
ically managed, and its members arc
protected just as we'll as though il
had surplus to blow about. Ir
conclusion will say, as long al
the coat seems to fit Mr. Kindlund
so we'll, why of course we must let
him wear it.

THE cENsoR's NEW DRESS.

With this issue the CENSOR appears
in complete new dress of reading type
from the foundry of Barnhart Bros. e
Spindler, Chicago, the leading printers
supply house in the west. We think it
rather handsome face and one which
young and old readers will appreciate.
The CENSOR has never occupied much
Of its space in telling of what it has
done, OF is going to do. 1t has never
complained and is not going to complain
of the support and good will accorded It
by the good people of Vernon county
1t IS not in boastful spirit that it tells
its subscribers that they are members of
the largest family of readers possessed
by any English local county paper in the
state This great circulation has been
built up without days or minutes
soliciting. Advertisers should also APP
preciate this fact
The CENSOR returns thanks, sincere
and grateful, to all its friends for past
patronage and good will, and will in the
tuture strive to deserved like patronage
and friendship. 1t will be the constant
aim of the CENSOR to give all Of the i'm
portant local and general news and give
the advertiser good return for his
money. To those who have never been
patrons of the paper, either as snbscrib-
ers or advertisers, the CENSOR has only
to say that it would be pleased to have
them give it trial.
In conclusion permit us to say: that
when this new dress is old, ard another
new one comes from the foundry, if all
the people of Vernon county shall be
wiser, better, richer and happier and the
CENSOR has contributed something in
aid of these conditions, then it shall be
compensated and well satisfied.
