last to allow losses that have recently

found to be $500. instead of 5000 as

was covered by $3.50 insurance. Be-
sides the two losses mentioned above
there have been two smaller losses
during the past season. The latter
we're paid out of funds on hand but
an assessment will have to be levied
to cover the two larger losses, which
will amount to about five mills on a

For some little time the Mitchell

the Mitchellites have caused to be

statement:

state authoritatively that no action was

have been resented by the entire confer
