Snyder, Oklahoma, thriving town
of 1000 persons, situated in the
che farming country, which was
thrown open to white settlement in
1901, was practically wiped out of
existence by tornado that struck the
place last night. Up to ten o'clock to-
day no clear estimate of the casualties
was obtainable, owing to the confu-
sion in the stricken town. A conserva
tive estimate places the dead at be-
tween rs and 100, and the seriously
injured at $50. Ii is believed that
large number OF the injured will die.
In number of cases entire families
were killed, and in almost every fam
lily in town some member was injur-
ed. Every house in town with the ex-
ception of six is said to have been
badly wrecked or demolished. Many
of them were blown away. The havoc
wrought is most complete. The busi-
ness portion of the town is reported
totally destroyed.

The editor of the Huronite advises
policy holders in the old line com
pauies to hang on to their policies.
That advice looks good to US. The
investigation now being made into
the management of these companies
is not going to make the companies
insolvent, but on the other hand will
have a tendency to better the man
agelnent, reduce the expense, elimin.
ate the graft, aud make the com
panies stronger financially and
therefore the policies will be safer
than before. This Investigation will
accomplish more. 1t gives the peo-
pie an insight into the cost of in
surance and to continue in business
the companies will be obliged to
either lower the rates or write more
favorable contracts. The chances
are that the present holder Of a
policy may see his premium rate
reduced to some extent.
