Fire Apportionnent.

The state insurance department an
nonnces the following amounts as due
the various towns in this county from the
fund created by setting apart two per
cent of the gross amount paid in insur-
surance premiums from each locality:
Bathgate, s6O.52. Cavalier, S63O5.
Crystal, 1872 81. Drayton, s59.e7.
Hamilton, s21.97. Pembina, s52.3s.
. St. Thomas, 1876. "a. Walhalla, s6s.51.
These amounts indicate considerable
difference in the amount of insurance
money paid from the different towns in
the county and entirely out of proportion
to the value of property that should be
insured and the size of the towns. In
which regard Pembina undoubtedly has
the poorest showing. This is mostly &C.
counted for that in the principal and
practically the only business block in the
city, the rate is over Z per cent, which is
practically prohibitive. This Office. which
is comparatively isolated from all other
risks, has to pay s34 per thousand on our
stock and building per year. This city,
however, has the consolation that so far,
notwithstanding our apparent extreme
risks, that we have not had half a dozen
fires in twenty years and these all of iso-
lated dwellings of small value. Block Is
according to insurance records and data
is now about six years older than the ex-
tremest old age Of similar risks of solid
wooden business tenements.
