The Leavenworth weekly times. [volume] (Leavenworth, Kan.) 1870-1880, 1871-11-02

This comparison is with companies recog-
nized TO be among the strongest in the
country.
The Republic, it is seen, has the largest
PERCENTAGE of cash assets OF any company IN
| the list, and of total assets, including stock
subscription, has a PERCENTAGE OF actual IN
demnity six times greater than that oil the
largest of the Eastern Companies.
|, has been the design of the Stockholders
TO make the Company the strongest IN the
United States, and We unhesitatingly assert
tina. the security to policy holders has!never
been eaualled by any other Fire Insurance
Company. As an earnest of their determine
ton 10 sustain the company, and OF their
good faith TO the policy holders, the Stock
holders have resolved to iorego dividends
until an ample suplus has accumulated, and
pledge for the security of the policies the
entire cash capital and surplus, the interest
| from investment and the premium income,
| together with Jour millions OF subscribed
| capital, which has not been called in, and 1t
| is but the truth to saw that the security is ut
| least ten times greater than is needed to
make the policy holders perfectly secure
| In this the stockholders occupy position
which should command respect, and they
appeal confidently TO the Western public to
| sustain their efforts.
| The Eastern Companies are draining the
West of many millions annually, large
portion Of which might he kept at home, and
from long monopoly of the business have
tecome exacting and intolerant.
The Republic Was established through the
combined efforts of thousands Of business
men throughout the West, for the express
purpose Of protecting themselves and the
people of the West against the undue exaction
of Eastern Companies, and has been the means
of breaking down the great Eastern combina-
tion. known as the National Board Of Fire
Underwriters.
The Company has been systematically
misrepres,n ted Ivy the paid organs Of the
continuation, and the country has heea flood
ed with anonymous circulars, teeming with
barefaced falshoods respecting the Company
We desire, therefore, to hold up the au'
thors and abettors of these attacks upon the
Republic Insurance Company to the scorn Of
all right-thinking men, and appeal to the
people OF the West to give the Company theiI
support and patronage, not only on thu
ground of superior merit, but also for the
better protection Of your private interests
the encouragement of right against wrong
and the promotion Of the interests Of the Wes
in general.
You can now obtain from the Republic
Insurance Company superior quality:.of fir
, insurance, at less price than you wer'
compelled to pay Eastern companies whel
they had you in their power. TheirSore, .
|, q question of economy merely, you can N
longer afford to send your money Eat 4
purchase an inferior article, even at the SAM
1, price. By doing so you impoverish your Owl
: section to that extent, and pay into the hand
of those who have already Oppressed you, .D'
will again if the opportunity ofers, 90 tha
on grounds of policy, both public an
! private, you should give the preference :
Western insurance companies, whenever
|. can be done with safety.
