THE OHIO FARMER'S.

Ofticx Ohio Faxx xhs' Iicsceasck Co., Lx Kot, O.. May 2ü, 1830. Hon. M. D. Manson, Andltar of State, Indlanapo'ls, led.: Dub RrR I have the honor to submit herewith a fall statement of the basioe transacted la tue Btate of Indiana by this Company: April 2, 1877, to June SO, 1S77.

It does not Include agents' commissions, and npon this point I beg ltave to make the following explanation: This Company was organized in 181S, for the purpose of Insuring property of farmers. It wan, aDtUhas a ways been, purely mutual, but Its charter allows the Company to receive a fixed premium in full wltbout any further liability on toe part of the policy bolder, and this is the plan upon which all our business is transacted. The ooject from tue first has been to give Insurance at actual cost, and the tact that tbe Company Is mutual and has no stockholders entitled to dividends enables us to fix our rates at a point to cover only losses and expense. It was the Company 'a policy to leisure tbe very best farmers In every commnnlty. and by keeping them thoroughly lnfoiraedot the object and condition of tbe Company, to no Interest them In its success that Ihey should voluntari'y work to promote its welfare. Tbe location of the Company at Le Roy, a village of Medina County, Ohio, is extremely favorable to a Company of this kind. It is a small village in a thickly settled community. By the policy adopted the best farmers of the county and adjolulog Counties became members, and have, fiom tbe first, been actively Interested in the success of tbe Company. The same policy has made tbe Company popular wherever has an agency, and much ot our best JDualness comes to us throcghihe efforts of member who are not agents. to general is the interest in the welfare of tbe Company among Its members that, at the annual meeting, tbe attendance la very large, at times tnere bslcg as many as 3,000 present. When the Company vai organized (and for years afterward) ibere was nu insurance department In Ohio, and the Company was not required to make any public report of its business. We have endeavored to simplify our business in all lta details, and In carrying out the Idea of economy and simplicity in bookkeeping it was from ihe first made the rule to chaige tbe agent just the amount due tbe Company on each risk Instead of charging an amount larger than was requ'red of nim for the mere sake of crediting him the excess which we did rotable or expect him to pay; and we required agents and members reporting risks to report only the net rates of insurance fixed by the Company. The commission was regarded as a matter between the farmer and the agent or member who reported tbe risk. Thus the rate of comraision was a very uncertainty quantity. Ina very large number of cases no commission was charged, and only a policy fee was paid. Tnere seemed to the directors no nece-kity lor keeping a record ot commissions, and no such record has ever been kept. The Ohio insurance Department was orgnlz-:d in 1&7, and we made our first reportfor that year. It was our understanding ot the law that only tbe moneys actually received should be accounted for, and we made our statement In accordance with our books. As desirous of showing a large business, it would have been to our interest to show commissions as well as premiums, but this we did not and could not do. Since the organization of the Ohio Department the Company has been three times thoroughly examined in every detail by tbe Bupeilntendent or his deputy, lion. W. D. Hill. Superintendent of Insurance, under date of April 2, 187S. referring to the examination made by tbe .Depart en', says: "Tbe report of the Examiner shows tlat tbe examination has been very thorough and complete. The entire report, including all the Items composing the assets and liabilities, mortgages securities and everything else peitilnlng to tbe solvency and management of the Company, has been carefully reviewed by me and approved. I am perfectly satisfied with the examination and report made by Colonel EwIdp, together with my own knowledge of the Company's a flairs. The Company Is in all respects solvent, and it has the confidence or thl Department." "In 1877 the Board of Directors determined to apply for admission to do business In tbe State of Indiana. Our rep it was presented to your firedecessor, and authority granted. We cirae nto the btate Intending to carry out the taue line ot business that had so signally succeeded In Ohio We sought only competent and honorable genta, and they were instructed 'o solicit the risks o! the very be-t farmers. We believed tbe organization ot tbe Company was such, its accumulation of assets so large, and Its advantages so easily presented that the intelligent farmers of Indiana would appreciate tbe Company as felly as it is appreciated in Ohio. We were not di-appointed, aid confidently claim for the policy holders of our Company In Indiana that they are of tbe very best citizens of the State. We have had abundant reason to feel grateful to them for the interest taken in the Company's welfare. In July, 1877, we made our first tax statement to your department. It was a full and true statement of receipts frura Indiana, as shown byour books. We started our Indiana business on tbe same plan as our Ohio business, and we have no record o' commissions, except as shown on the applications. which are not always filled out. That statement was as follows: Premiums charged, tJ.oi'Ä; losses paid. Si; balance, i.-'J.2t. Upon tbis we paid a tax of 3 per cent., amounting to 571.71. Had commissions been added at the blgh estimate of 20 per cent., tbe additional tax would have been 17 3, a sum so insignificant that no one will for a moment believe the report was knowingly made contrary to the ruling of yourdepartment to effect such a saving. If we bad so understood he blank: upon which report to Indiana was made, or if any ruling of the Ohio Department bad required us to report com mUslous, they would bave been reported. Eofore the next statement was required by your department, January 1, 1878, Hon. E. Henderson, Auditor of the State of Indiana, appointed a representative to examine the Company. He visited the Home office and made a thorough examination of the Company. I personally showed nim our books, and gave him a full statement of our method of bookkeeping, which ko approved and expressed himself pleased with thestmpticityand economy of our system, an Indeed baa every Examiner who baa visited as. Our succeeding statements were made In the same way, and we bad no Idea until called npon oy Hon. Mr Fluch that our method of making s'atemetat for taxation was not In accordance witb the laws of Indiana : and here I wish to say, with all t he emphasis tbrt language may have, speaking for myself and tbe officer of the Company, that we never tCiought that tbe Company was not to the uttermost syllable complying wtch the laws of tbe Hute of Indiana. If we bave erred It was because misled br the Interpretation placed upon the law. After the examination by Hon. Mr. Finch, and the Interview of Mr. Jebnaon, the President of the Company, an myself with yoa and tbe Attorney General, we knew for the first time that we bad made an error. Wben this was explained br Mr Finch we raqneuted blaa to lnloran us of tbe amonl we heu'd have paid had commissions been reported. He then made examination of the receipts front Indiana end by tbe hlghestestlmate he cookl make upon any hypothesis the sum of f iH2 was found 4. ue. This amount was Immediately placed in his hands as a tender, thougli we believe an examination ef the apf licauons would show it excessive by at least lo. Here I beg leave to add that as our business is carried on so as to give the farmers time when they desire, vre must of course fall to collect fome of the premiums, yet we report all notes for premiums aa casb, and pay taxes on them as cash. Policies are can celed for various reasons, and the premiums never paid. The amount annually unpaid exceeds the total commissions received by tie agents. I mention this to show that the State bas In reality lost nothing, for tbe error of not reporting commissions is balanced by reporting as cash, mach that the Company never did and never will receive. I nave aimed to make this statement frank, full and explicit. If It lacks anything, or is too full, it Is not an IntenUoaal error. Tbe Ohio Farmers' Insurance Company has for thirty years dealt falriy, honorably and satisfactorily with ail, and Justly deserves the confidence It has earned. In conclusion, I will say that inch a change will be made in our saetbod of keeping ac

counts that in tbe future our tax statements will show gross receipts, lucludin commissions received by agents. Respectfully submitted. A. II. Hawlky, Secretary. I have assisted Mr. Hawley In the preparation of this statement, and aeslre to certify to tbe facts given therein, and to earnestly reiterate tbe expression of tbe Intention of tbe Company to obey the laws of Indiana in every particular. JAMES C. JOHNSON. President. The 8 täte of Ohio, Medina County, as.: Personally appeared the above named A.n. Hawley and Jam s C. Johoson, who, being duly sworn, say that they are the officers of tbe Ohio Farmers' Insurance Company, aa above set forth, and that the foregolrjg re pert, signed by them respectively, is true, as they vtribly believe.

STATE AUDITOR MANSON'S DECISION. Offic op Auditor or statk, Indianapolis, June 16, IstO. ) A. H. Hawley, E-q., Secretary Ohio Farmers' Insurance Company, Le Roy.O.: Sie la April last there was complaint made to me that your Company was evading the law by not making tbe proper reEirta for taxation. I immediately appointed on. John A. Finch to examine your Company. The facts known to me in this case areas follow: The Company was admitted to the State February 22, 1877, by my predecessor, lion. . Uendersan, and at that time hied a statement which showed its condition to be as follows: ASSETS. Cash on band and in the hands of agents or other persona- 67,211 72 Real estate, unincumbered 15.&S2 7 United States bonds (five twenties)... 114.UUU 80 County, school and city bonds of Ohio .... 74.783 00 Loans on bond and mortgage, first lien on unincumbered real estate, worth double the amount loaned 433,506 01 Debts otherwise secured 11,737 18 Debts for premiums ....i. 153,3!9 'iti All other securities 28.230 81 Total.... 1807,430 88 LIABILITIES. Losses unadjusted I 10,891 01 Amount necessary to reinsure outstanding rlsks..... . . 518,725 (0 Total 528,619 01 This gave it fall right to enter the 8Ute for the transaction of business. Tbe law of Indiana does not particularize in any respect between Fire and Life Insnranoe Companies. The act approved December 21, 1SGÖ, reqnlred Companies to have $100,000 capital, and as it was known that few of the Life Companies had nay capital, the law was from the first interpreted to mean "assets," and under this interpretation the Mutual Life Insurances were admitted. The act approved March 3. 1877, made the requirement $200,000 capital, and the ruling was not changed in any respect. But two.or three Life Insurance Companiea doing business in tbis State have $200,000 capital, bat all bare that amount and more of assets. Under this ruling, the Ohio Farmers', though a Mutual Company, was admitted. In August, 1877, my predecessor, Hon. E. Henderson, eent an examiner to the home office of your Company to examine it and to report npon its condition. His report was made, and was of euch character that the Company was permitted to remain in tbe State, and it fully verified the statement filed by the Company. Mr. Finch in his report to me, stated after a careful examination that the returns for taxation bad not included the commissions paid to agents. This was not denied by the officers oi tbe Company wben writing to this office, after the examination had been made. Under date ot May 20, 1880, you make a supplementary statement and make a tender of $392, an amount estimated by the Examiner, to ba due the State as taxes. Ia this statement was embodied a fall explanation ot the manner of keeping accounts and making returns for taxation eijaed and sworn to by the officers of the Company, and claiming the utmost good faith on tbe part of tte Company. Tnis statement was re ferred to Hon. T. W. Woollen, Attorney General, for his advice, as the law officer of the State. Upon a full consideration of the same by bim, I am advised that if I am of the opinion that the Company had made its returns for taxation in good faith. I should not tnforce the p-ntlty, and should permit the Company to remain in the State, but if t le returns were made with a purpose to de fraud the 8 täte, I am directed that it is my duty to proceed to collect tbe penalty and expel the Company from the State. 1 bave given tbe supplementary statement a yery careful consideration, and, in connection with tbe statement made by the Examiner, appointed by Hon. E. Henderson, which fully sustains the claim that there was no concealment to him cf the manner of making up returns for taxation, and as this is all of the evidence that I have before me, I am unable to conclude from it that it is my duty to cancel the authority of tbe Company . to transact business in this State. I am led to this conclusion by my ruling in a case precisely analogous, viz : A prominent Life Company had filed a statement for taxation, in which they had deducted tbe amount represented by dividends to policy bolders. Wben my attention was called to this, I referred the matter to tbe Attorney General for his opinion; he decided that returns should be made for tbe entire premiums, without any deduction, and so the Company now makes returns. Technically tbis Company had violated tbe law, exactly as bas the Ohio Farmers', but thinking they had acted in good faith, I did not enfoxe the penalty or cancel the authority . A ruling against tbe Ohio Farmer' in this matter would require me to be consistent, to make the same ruling against this delinquent Life Company. I therefore accept the $302 tax. for which yoa will find inclosed a receipt. In accepting the amount of tax which is found to be due from your Company, I am governed in my action to a certain extent by your sworn supplementary report, the statement of the Examiner of the examination made in August, 1S77. the recent examination by Hon. John A Finch, and theopioion of the Attorney General. From all of the evidence there Is not a doubt but what there has been a technical violation of the law, but not sufficient, with the explanation, in ray judgment, to exclude your Company from doing business in this State. If there are any parties in any manner aggrieved by my action in this decision, the Courts of the State are open to teat the correctness of tbe decision herein made. I have been governed solely in my action with a view to promote the best interests of the State and the rights of the parties insuring with your Company, and to deal justly with your Company, as I have endeavored to do with all Companies transacting businees In this State. Respectfully Yours, M. D. Maksov, Auditor of State of Indiana. Viscountess Ilaberton, of England, complains that the public has not taken th trouble to understand the woman's suffrage question, or to learn what is sought. Tbe electoral suffrage is not aeked at once for woman who have not the proper qualification, nor is it desired that women should vote instead of men; but it is heidthat there should be no difference in the exercise of the vote on account of sex. James Freeman Clark says: 'I have notieed that men holding extreme opinions in what is now called free religion are often just as bigoted as tbe most orthodox. The modern school of German and English materialists, who know nothing in the universe but matter and force, ate the narrowest fanatics whose books I meet with. They despise every one who believes more than they do."

RELIGIOUS NOTES. ' There are 20,340 Sunday-schools in this country belonging to the Methodist denomination. The number of scholars is 1,538,311, or about 1o to each school. A register of names carefully kept shows that the Baptist National anniversaries at Saratoga were attended by 1,383 persons, which is about 250 more than were present at the anniversaries last year. A variety of the cedar of Lebanon ha3 been found on the mountains of Cyprus, and though the botany of the island has often been examined before, this is the first record that cedars have been found there. Dr. John Hall, of lew York City, says the members of his chursh during the past five years have given to benevolent objects outside the church a greater sum than the church edifice cost, or more than $1,000,000. It is intimated that the unusual interest in missions which prevails in Amherst College is due to the fact that for more than twenty-five years a mission band has been kept up among the students. They meet every two weeks for prayer and conversation concerning mission fields. A fortaight ago at tbe dress rebersal of the 'Oberammergau Pason Flay," about 2,000 people were present. Snow and rain prevailed all day long? and only one-half the proformance was given. The correspondent of an English paper says the audience was not reverential in its demeanor, and that a large quantity of beer waj consumed during the representation. Noah M. "Wells, the Presbyterian pastor who died recently at Erie, Fenn., at the age of ninety-eight, leaves one survivor in his early pastoral work in Michigan Rev. Albert "Worthington. Mr. "Worthington went to Michigan nearly fifty years ago as a missionary, and passed a week in Detroit, preaching twice for Mr. "Wells. Of the pioneers then in that Presbytery Mr. "Worthington is the sole survivor. There were at first thirteen of them, and they met at Adrian, then a small village, to form the Synod of Michigan. Three years ago letters passed between him and Mr. "Wells. "Four years more," wrote Mr. "Wells, "and I shall "have lived a hundred years. But I am approaching the river, and in all probability shall soon pass over how soon I know not; it will in God's own good time." The centenary of the actual establishment of the first Sunday school by Robert Kaikes does not occur until next month; but various dates asssciated with it have been selected by different denominations and towns as tbe occasion for holding the celebration. At Halifax, in England, a celebration wa3 performed early last month by a great musical demonstration. There were ninety-nine schools represented, and they comprised 3,773 teachers, and 20,547 scholars, besides 1,000 persons who either played iustruments or sang in the great choir. The hall was of enormous size, and by means of temporary galleries it accommodated in addition some 9,000 spectators. The scholars and teachers all wore medals and clasps bearing a bas-relief of Itobert Kaikes, and evtcy denomination was represented. The noise of the singing and playing cjuld be heard in all parts of the town and on the hills around it. Training of The Young-. There is a bent, a trend, a tendency in the nature of children, which should be taken into account in the culture of their minds and the choice of a pursuit in life. Sometimes it should be discouraged, for it does not always point to usefulness, honor and happiness. Just as the twig, etc. And in early years, even a bad tendency may be repressed or eradicated, which, left unchecked, will become a resistless flood, an ungovernable passion, a fatal power. But this natural force, inclination or propensity, when rightly guided, will be clear gain in the development of character, making a grand succes3. It is better in the training of the young to rely more on cautious encouragement, than rough reproof and constant censure or faultfinding. The race is weary enough, and the toil up hill is hard enough, to justify all the help that parent and teacher can afford. Repression and scolding only irritate the soul, without adding to its power. Often the brain is confused by a harsh word, and the mind is diverted from the point, when a smile and kindly remark would be a ray of sunlight guiding to the true answer. One of the marvels of human nature is that loving parents often abuse their children under a mistaken sense of duty.

Remarkable. Joha Hnnt, of Providence, R. I , found himself seized with a general dropsy. His body swelled to an enormous size; he could not He down, and death seemed inevitable. His kidneys were also hadly affected. The services of a renowned physician were secured, and a prescription was made after a thorough examination.
