Warned To Beware
Some Insurance Co. 5

1t would appear that many insurance
companies are springing into exist
ence and attempting to write insurance
in the State of Montana, without first
complying with the insurance laws Of
the state, says John j. Holmes. state
commissioner of insurance and state
auditor These companies do not pro-
cure state insurance license before
proceeding to dispose Of their con-
tracts to Montana citizens. The COM
panies wholly fail to appoint the State
Auditor and Ex-officio Commissioner
of Insurance their attorney to accept
service of process, which means, Of
course, that in the event Montana
citizen purchases contract of insur-
ance from such company and has
occasion to litigate a claim arising
under the contract, the citizen must
seek the aid of the courts of the state
in which the company is domiciled as
service of process cannot be secured
on the company in this state Where
service of process cannot be made upon
the company in this state, it is obvious
that the courts of the State of Mon
tana cannot obtain jurisdiction over
the company.
Many complaints are received in the
department from citizens who have
purchased insurance from companies
operating through the media of the
United States mail. Unfortunately these
citizens did not contact the department
prior to the time they purchased the
contracts. 1t is only where the company
wholly fails to audit claim filed or
offers some sum in settlement of a
claim, wholly inadequate to the amount
provided for in the contract, that the
citizen complains to the department
The department can only advise the
citizen, in these cases, that the depart
ment has no jurisdiction over the COM
parry, and frat tire citizen either
accept the amount rendered by the
company and charge the difference be-
tween what he receives and what he
should receive up to experience or
litigate his claim in the courts of a
foreign state. 1t is obvious that the cost
of litigating claim in the courts Of

Little Fire Damage
This Year In Forests

In an interview with Forest Super
visor c. S. Webb, he states the Koot-
enai national forest and privately
owned lands in Lincoln county have
been kept remarkably free from fire
damage this season.
Mr.. Webb states there are a great
many people frequenting the fishing
streams, camp grounds and berry
patches as we'll as many workers in
the forest, and he considers the alb
sence of fires fine example of what
can be accomplished if forest users
and recreationists are careful in their
use of equipment, camp fires, tobacco
and matches. He states no little credit
is due forest users of this locality for
their carefulness with fire and since
the forest lands are becoming more
dry each day, he wishes to again re-
mind all those entering forested lands
for any purpose whatsoever Of the ex-
IRENE necessity for thoughtfulness and
care in the use of tobacco, matches, and
camp fires. All are requested to care
fully observe the fire prevention rules,
no smoking except at established camps
or places of habitation, carrying water
bucket and shovel with the car, and
the sure shot extinguishing Of all camp
fires by the use of water, before leav-
ing such fires for any length of time
at all. If all are careful and thoughtful,
and the above rules closely observed,
there should be no man caused fires
bringing their usual disastrous results.
The forest service is appreciative Of
the throughtfulness the local public has
shown this season, says Mr.. Webb.

ing business in Libby Tuesday. He had
with him many copies of a recent petit
ton that had been circulated over the
