bles after the cigars were passed and
Mr.. Cunningham introduced his old
employer, ex-senator Lee Mantle.
His introduction showed the deep
seated friendship that has existed be-
tween them all the years Of their &C
quaintance, and then when Senator
Mantle responded, his remarks we're
evidence that the esteem is mutual.
1t was indeed a pleasure to me to see
that occasionally tire is a man who
does not have to die before his
friends will pay him just tribute OF
appreciation.
The day we spent at the home Of
fee was revelation to me. I knew
that there must be some good reason
for the company making such tremen-
dous progress, but did not know what
it was. The Montana Life has been
exceedingly fortunate in the selection
of its officers. The president, Mr..
Johnson, is financier of statewide
reputation, and all the other active
officers are practical insurance men.
In addition to Mr.. Cunningham, Mr..
Miller, the secretary, carried rate
book in the field for something more
than ten years, and the actuary, Mr..
Herfurth, likewise has had field ex-
perience. All three still write their
share of business, which goes to show
that the company was not organized
to provide berth for anyone. Even
one of the medical directors wrote
life insurance to pay his way through
medical college. The result is that
they know what an insurance agent
has to contend with in writing bust
ness and therein is the secret, to a
large extent at least, for the record
that the company has for the large
amount of business written and that
never in it's history has an agent left
it to join the ranks of another com
pany. The boys all had splendid
time, and if enthusiasm counts for
anything, l predict that the last six
months business will far exceed that
of the six months just closed, when
the issued business exceeded that Of
last year for the same period by II
per cent" ,

COOK RETURNS
FROM BUTTE
Montana Life" Agent Pleased
With Good Treatment
Received.

S. D. Cook, general agent of Mon
tana Life, is home from Butte, where
he attended the annual convention OF
agents of the company. Mr.. Cook is
immensely pleased with the trip and
reports that every agent Is enthusiast
tic over the way in which they were
treated, not only by the officers of the
company, but by the people of Butte,
Anaconda and Helena as well. t
Mr.. Cook said: During my more
than rs years in the insurance bust
ness l have attended great many
conventions, but this one beat them
all for enthusiasm, entertainment and
general good feeling. The officers of
the company treated us royalty and
there was not single slip in the
splendid program from start to finish.
I am confident that every one of the
80 agents who we're in attendance
feel that they never spent week
more profltably to themselves, and On
every hand l heard the sentiment ex-
pressed that my old friend, Harry
Cunningham, is not only the best gen.
eral manager of an insurance COM
pany in the United States, but is
equally as good when it comes to
making preparations FOR conven-
ton. It is no small task to arrange
for the comfort of so agents, and
many had their wives with them,
when the Elks and Firemen had their
annual conventions in the same town
and at the same time.
Mr.. Cunningham is very proud of
his agency force and claims that they
are the largest producers of insurance
business per man in the United
States. When one stops to think that
he has less than 70 agents in the
state of Montana and they write one
fifth of al the business written in the
state, with AZ competitors in the field,
it shows that the figures back up his
claims. The Montana Life today has
more business in force in that state
than any other company, and some
of the big eastern companies have
been operating in Montana for more
than 25 years, while the Montana
Life's first application was written on
Sept. 10, 1910.
Everyone connected with the COM
pany is absolutely loyal, the officers,
as well as the agents. Thus far the
officers with the exception of the gen.
eral manager and secretary have Civ
en- their time gratis to the company.
The large increase in surplus is due
to the fact that the Off
GERS with the exceptions l have stat
ed have given of their time and en-
ergy without compensation, because
they are loyal to their state and want
to see it the home of the biggest in
surance company in the west. The
record made by the company shows
their unselfish spirit and is most graf
flying to everyone connected with the
company in any way.
Thursday we spent at the home Of
fee in Helena, and l was greatly sur
prised at the changes that have taken
place there since came to North Da-
kota. The company has outgrown its
old quarters-the second floor of the
Conrad Bank building and has now
taken the entire floor of the building,
also. I we'll remember the time when

AGENTS CONVENTION
WAS GREAT SUCCESS
Bunde, Assistant General Agent
of Montana Life, Returns
from Butte

William G. Bundle, assistant general
agent, who returned from the Mon
tana LIES agents convention at
Butte last night, stated that he never
saw such unanimity of good feeling
as was displayed at the convention.
He added, ut is certainly pleasure
to meet with 80 boosters such as at
tended that convention. Everywhere
the utmost loyalty was displayed. The
boys all say that Harry Cunningham
is the best general manager If the
best life insurance company III the
country, and when one secs with what
feeling they say it there is no room
left to doubt their sincerity. The fact
that Mr.. Cunningham is called Harry
by everyone shows the calibre OF
man he is, for it is only big-hearted,
whole-souled and lovable sort Of
man who is affectionately spoken of
in that way by his associates and sub
ordinates. To me, of all the good
things that will long be remembered;
the one that will remain after the
others have long been forgotten is.
when we sat around the banquet Ia

they occupied but two rooms on the
second floor, then added another, and
so on until finally they utilized evely
room on that floor, and now that the
business is coming in in such volume
it has been necessary 10 double their
quarters.
During the first six months OF 1916
the company wrote $3,125,000 Of new
business. In other words, the first
six months of 1916 exceeds the same
period of last year n per cent in is
sued business; the assets have been
increased 25 per cent and the insur-
ance in force, IS per cent.

With the publication of the reports
of the various national committees,
U. S. Attorney S. C. Huber may find
an opportunity to further his inves-
tigation of a report that local corpor-

Attorney Huber explains that it is
required by law that the national COM
mittees file a report 10 days before
election, and another at prescribed
time following election. These re-
ports, he says, will contain the names
of persons and corporations contrib
uting to the various campaigns, as
we'll as the amounts contributed.

GOVERNOR Will
GALL TREASURER
FOR CONFERENCE

No orders have been issued by Gov
ernor Lucius E. Pinkham to suspend
collection of automobile taxes from
army officers owning motor cars. Mel
Their has he conferred with Tax Col
lector c. T, Wilder relative to the
situation.
81 had conversation with the
judge-advocate of the Hawaiian De-
partment before left for Kauai
said Governor Pinkham today, on his
return from that island. My own
opinion is that we should be as &C
confmodating as we can be to the
army, and at the same time be rea-
sonably just to ourselves. The army
is a big help. to this territory, and
there is ne use trying to overcroWd a
good thing"
Il have not seen Tax Collector
Wilder, and did not see him before |
left. The probability is that l will
take up the matter with Territorial
Treasurer Mccarthy and see what he
thinks about it before l take any
action,
MY feeling is that there should be
some legislation If possible to secure
equity. An army officer comes here,
stays two months, and is ordered
away again. It is manifest that his
case is different from that of an ord
mary citizen"
K Acknowledgement |. NJ. Stainback
said today that the matter Of army
officers auto taxes has gone as far
as it can here and that an appeal, If
it is, made, will have to be decided
by the L. S. circuit court Of appeals,
probably in California, or the United
States supreme court Il, have not
heard Of any appeal being filed yet,
he added.
T. Deputy Assessor A. w. Nicely said
Collector Wilder will not be back
from Hawaii probably for two weeks.
In the meantime the status quo re-
mains unchanged.
