Plain Facts as Regards Life Insnr-

Any life insurance company which is
chartered upon a purely mutual basis and
whose business is conducted honestly and
judiciously, is a good life insurance COM
pany. The best life insurance company
is one of those good ones referred to
above, whose officers have proven by re-
suits that they are a little more capable
of handling the policyholders interests
than anybody else. This is what makes
the Mutual Benefit of Newark, ". j., the
best life insurance company, and infu-
ences intelligent men all over the United
States to seek it out in preference to 9TH
ers. Every poiicyholder in the Mutual
Benefit is a stakeholder and receives his
just share of the surplus which, in 1895,
amounted TO nearly two million dollars

SAYS DRAINAGE is ALL, RIGHT.
Chairman Dale Insists the County
bitches Are in Good Condition.


bitches Are in Good Condition.
Chairman J. ]. Dale of the County Com
nissIoners says that the drainage of the
county and especially that around the city
is in good condition.
"The county has done a great deal Of
drainage work this year" said Mr. Dale
"as reference to the monthly reports of
the superintendent viii show. We have had
one gang that has done but little else, but
clean bitches. Usually the county forces
are divided into three gangs, but this
year the division was made into four
gangs in order to better care for the drain
age work. The extra gang involved con-
slderable additional expense. but the re-
suits have been good. There has been
less complaints on the score of drainage
this summer than for any summer for sew
eral years past"
Chairman Dale's attention was called 10
Mr. J. f. Guilmartins complaint with ref
erence TO the drainage on the DeReune
lands, near the government hospital. ana
replied that he did not care 10 discuss any
complaint coming from Mr., Guilmartin
The county had done the work which il
had agreed with the hospital authorities t.
do, he said with the exception of
portion of the work on The
DeRenne lands. Permission had beea
refused by Mr. DeRenne's at
torneys 10 allow the ditch 10 be dug and
this accounted for the stoppage OF the
work at this point.
In speaking of the county drains. Mr.
Dale said that many of the bitches had
grown up in weeds since being cleaned out.
only a few weeks being required for the
weeds to regain their hold.
The growth is nos sufficient 10 prevent
the flow of water" said Chairman Dale,
IF there were any water to be carried off
which has not been the case for some
time. BuckhaIter canal is almost a dry
ditch at present 1t would hardly be
worth while 10 clean out the bitches a
second time. and besides, il would not be
good policy to throw up the mud at this
season of the year.
