AFFMRS OF CANAD.-\ LlFI:`.

The Crtusulv. Life Assurance Co'

pany is the l-urges? life insurnn.: company in C.-tri xiixi. lt ‘rms ri. subSC‘i bei capri-tl ot' one million dollars, an

a paid crpi:.~=. of $125,000. It was est-rmlishei rn the year 1849, and its original act of incorporation provided that no shareholder, no matter how u many shares he might own, should have more than forty votes, but a. few years ago this part of the act was amended and instead a vote was given for each share. It is said that this amendment was smuggled through parliament, and has only recently

been discovered. Be that as it ma he attention has been drawn to the fact that one man having secured 550 shares in the company and can- scquently 550 votes, had things pretty much his own way at the last- annual meeting ol the company and as a re- sult the policy holders have become considerably disturbed on account of the predominance of one ma.n’s in- fluence.

M etings of numbers of these policy

holders have taken place in several ot the large cities in Canada and an as- sociation has been for-med having for its object the repealof the statute which gave a vc-te for each share and for the restoration of the original limit to the voting powers of a share- holder. 'We are informed that in the city of Charlottetown rhere are policy holders to the. extent of nearly one half million of dol‘ars, and that petitions have been sent to this

-city to be signed by them.

Owing h iwever to the action of

the oliici-als of the company in refusing to furnish to the Association ll list of the policy holders who now number 26,000it is almost impossi- ble to obtain the names of the policy holders, and to accomplish this and to correct an apparent wrong the press is askci to ventilate the matter with a view ot' obtaining concerted action on the part of the policy holders.

We think this can be easily be ac-

complished by those interested getting bog ther and acting. The matter is most importantto them, has they are really more interested in the a.&`a.irs of the company than the shareholder. llbystend more in the relation of the creditors towardslhis debtor, who s always interested in seeing that a safe and prudent' business is being runeacted. A' meeting of policy hold- rs willbe held in the Y.M.C. A. Hall his _afternoon at 4 o’clock, which those interested ought to attend.

Lack Cham was a. city in the island

of Formosa when Japan came into possession.'I‘he city was built over a swamp, was notoriously unhealthy and thousands ded of recurring epidemics. ,The Japanese iflicials set oltto find the cause of the trouble anddecided that there was no cure but to remove the entire city. A new and healthy site was selected by ex- perts, sewers, streets, pavements, waterworks, and all the modern im- provements were constructed and every owner of property in Lock Cham was assigned a corresponding area. in the new city, all without any expense to himself. The inhabitants have been given twelve months to move to their new quarters, when the old town willbe abandoned and des- troyed. Now who will saythat the .laps have not taken up the white men’s burden!
