The Lion Bonding and Surety company of Omaha, one of the largest general bonding companies west of Chicago, is negotiating a con tract for the reinsurance of its entire liabilities with another western con cern. Comoletion of the deal depends on a check now being made by auditors of the second company.

"This examination was very thorough and there is no likeli hood that it will not stand up under the second scrutiny." To Clear Situation. The reinsurance contract, if car ried out, will clear a situation which has been troubling insurance circles for several months. The Lion com pany, due to an increase of business from annual premiums of $700,000 to over $2,000,000 in a single year, became embarrassed by inability to satisfy state examiners as to its abil ity to take care of a large amount of claims, lliese aggregated 1,WU,U(JU on their face. 'No company ever has to pay full face value of pending claims and we believed our assets sufficient to take care of all risks," said President Gur ney. "Under the rule of the various states, however, we were not allowed to take advantage of this margin and therefore we were technically in poor condition." . Capitalized at $300,000. Mi-.

I do not belong to any clique or faction and I am not willingly or knowingly on any so-called "slate." In this, my last appeal to the voters of our city, I ask that each and everyone cast their vote for seven (7) men whom they are sure will work for the best interests of our city. I now repeat the promise made to many of the voters that "If nominated and elected, I will make ah honest effort to give Omaha a good, clean, business-like administration." I do not believe that any candidate should receive the nomination simply because he believes in law and order alone, or because he is aligned with some religious or political faction or because he says that some organized gang is against him. I believe that the people of Omaha are more interested in good, clean, honest, capable and progressive government than they are in the per sonal ambition of any particular candidate who would willingly sacrifice everything to further his own interests.
