Bonds for Black Killers.

Less danger from dishonesty than
from fire. This is why, for nominal
sum one can get the very best bond and
be independent. This is of interest to
all Black Hills people. How many good
men have been brought TO grief by sign
ing bonds? They never think ofita after
signing until it Is too late and they are
called upon to make up n deficit. This
dreaded problem is now being avoided
by the good people of the Black Hills.
J.P. Hymer of Deadwood is General
Agent for the United states Fidelity and
Guaranty Co. of Baltimore, Md. and has
power of attorney to write bonds in all
| the Black Hills counties. The United
States government and all courts accept
these bonds in any amount. Do you
expect 10 be elected to office? Then
write Mr. Hymer and see what low rates
he will make you. 1t costs but little
from $5 to $40 for a Thousand Dollar
Bond backed by Million Dollar Com
pany. Still lower rates for larger
| bonds.
Administrators, executors, lodge off,
GERS, treasurers, employees, state and
county officials in fact if you have any
kind Of bond to give, let him make you
prices before you ask your friends to
sign. Appeal attachment, replevin and
all judicial bonds written on the spot
and no delay. This is of interest to at
torneys. You ask How can a reliable
company run the risk for so small sum"
Just the same way that Insurance
Companies can run the risk of giving
you policy for few dollars. We
claim that there is more danger Of loss
by fire than by an average Black Hills
man holding position of trust becom-
ing dishonest. Don't place yourself un-
der obligations by asking your friends
to sign your bond, when for paltry
sum you can obtain the very best bond
and be independent. Call on or write
