I wish to express through the
Times my thanks to the ROYAL
INSURANCE CC. for their prompt
and satisfactory settlement of my
claim, the courtesy extended me by
their adjuster, Mr. Hereford, and
the kindly interest manifested by
the company’s agents, MOORE &
PRATT, at this place. The company
and agents alike are good people
and it is pleasant to do business with
them. L. W. Goodwin.
The following is our list of fire
insurance companies:

wish Union. For strength, prompt
and satisfactory settlements cant

Rev. A. R. Fowler, of Elberton,
Ga., is in the city looking to the or-
ganization of the Planters’ Aid As-
sociation, an insurance company op-
erated on the mutual plan, whereby
farmers can protect themselves
from loss by fire with the least pos-
sible expense. It is the only per-
fectly safe method giving a maxi-
mum security with a minimum ex-
pense. It keeps the money at home;
that usually finds its way to the
east and to foreign lands, it pays no
fancy figures for a simple loss easily
calculated upon a fair basis of ad-
justment.
In compliance with the State stat-
utes requiring the election of two
justices of the peace in precincts
embracing a town of more than
8,000 inhabitants, I do hereby call a
primary election to be held August
8, for the purpose of nominating an-
other candidate in precinct 5, Bell
County, Tex. by virtue of authority
vested in me as Chairman of Execu-
tive Committee. F. P. Hamill.
In compliance with the orders of
the Democratic Executive Commit-
tee, I hereby call a primary election
to be held Aug. 8, to nominate a
candidate for Representative, made
vacant by the resignation of G. E.
Willcox. F. P. Hamill,
Chm. Dem. Ex. Com.

200 visitors and delegates, and Tem
pie, as usual, will give them a cor-
dial welcome and a generous enter-
tainment. If the committee who
are canvassing for homes should
overlook any one who is willing to
entertain any of the delegates, let
such person report to A. H. Cal-
houn the number of persons he is
willing to entertain. Let us open
our homes for two or three days to

can people ol English ailments.
Mr. L. M. Benson, of Oenaville,
has consented, through the urgent
solicitations of friends, to become a
candidate for representative. Mr.
Benson would make us a good rep-
resentative, he is broad guaged, far
'seeing, cool headed and clever. The
people of this county could not
make a mistake in trusting their in-
terests to the keeping of such a man.
A Remarkable Cure of Rheumatlam.
Westminister, Cal., March 21,1894.
Some time ago, on awakening one
morning, I found that I had rheuma-
tism in mv kee so badly that, as I
remarked to my wife, it would be
impossible for me to attend to busi-
ness that day. Remembering that
I had some of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm in my store I sent fora bottle,
and ruboed the aflicted parts thor-
oughly with it, according to direc-
tions, and within an hour I was com-
pletely relieved. One application
nad done the business. It is the
best liniment on the market, ami I
sell it under a positive guarantee.
R. T. Harris. For sale bv W. E,
Willis, druggist.
Of Interest to Farmers.
The farmers of this country have
long needed a cheap, safe and satis-
factory rate of insurance. In South
Carolina a company, known as the
Farmers Mutual Insurance Associa-
tion, was organized about six vears
ago. The plan of its operation was
to insure no property that was ex
posed from proximity to other urou-
erty, to have no more than three
salaried officers, and they at no
more than just sufficient to com-
mand good talent, not to exceed
$1,000 a year each, thereby reducing
expenses to a mere trifle. Each
member of the association was to
Day a small aaAount, not more than
1 per cent on the amount of prop-
erty insured, which gave him a 20
years’ membership, and then in case
of loss to any member each member
agreed to pay his prorata amount of
the loss. During the six years the
association has paid all losses at a
cost to the insured of less than one-
half of 1 per cent per annum, while
the old companies charge 11 per
cent per annum. A similar com-
pany was chartered in Georgia
about four years ago and they now
have several million dollars worth of
risks at a cost to the insured of not
more than one-halt of one per cent.
Acting upon the success and satis-
factory results of these companies,
a charter for the Planters Aid Asso-
ciation of Texas has been procured
and a branch of that business is now
organizing in Temple. Experience
proves and common sense will teach
that it is the very best method the
farmer can fall upon to secure him-
self against a possible loss from fire
or lightning. The cheapness of the
rate will at once appeal to the busi-
ness sense of the farmer as the very
best method of guarding against a
possible fire loss. Suppose, for in-
stance, that fifty men became mem-
bers of the association, each insut-
ing $1000 worth of property. The
assessment for membership would
be $10.00; then if there is no loss of
property by any of the fifty men for
the next twenty years, there will be
more expense, but if any one should
lose a house, then an assessment of
three-fourths of one per cent would
be made to cover it, it is a well
known fact that not more than one
house in fifty docs burn, hence this
plan of insurance gives equal pro-
tection at half the cost. For full
particulars see W. L. Goodwin.
