Policy Holders Of German Of Freeport

In view of the fact that some com.
peting companies and agents are per
sistently and continuously flooding
this territory with anonymous circu-
lars and statements sent through the
mails or otherwise, which they dare
not and are not willing to sign, and
realizing that our Policy Holders are
at all times entitled to the facts, de-
sire to submit the following true state
ment of facts:.-
The German Insurance Company of
Freeport, Illinois, has already paid
ST ,057, 79l.30 on San Francisco losses
and we have sufficient funds in var
ious banks all available on moments
notice, to pay all honest and legiti-
mate claims there or elsewhere AT 100
CENTS ON THE DOLLAR.
10 show you that our plan of settle-
ment of the balance of our San Fran
cisco losses Is right and fair, / desire
to state that the plan has been APP
proved by all the Associated Savings
Banks of San Francisco and also the
Policy Holders League or Association
OF San Francisco and is being approx
ed by the Policy Holders themselves
who are depositing their receipted
Policies with the Associated Banks
every day, and as soon as all claim
ants, or nearly 80, file their Policies
and Receipts with the Consolidated
Depository Banks, their claims will
be paid, and it is my honest judgment
that at the very latest day all losses of
the German Insurance Company of
Freeport, Illinois, will be settled and
paid by November, 10th, 1906, that be-
ing the final day for making such de-
po.it on said plan.
want to impress the fact upon each
and every Policy Holder of the Old
and Reliable German of Freeport, IL
linois, that his policy is just as good
as Government Bond for the
amount of any loss that he may have,
and if he has loss we will settle it
with him promptly at 100 centson the
dollar just the same as we have been
doing. right here in this territory for
over thirty years. as we'll as every
reports made to you by others, but it
you want any further Information. or
If you have loss, call upon or write
me or the Agent of the German In
surance Company who wrote your
business and 1 assure you that you
will receive fair, square and satisfac-
tory treatment. am proud of hav-
ing been citizen of Cass county, Ia,
about twenty.eight years and 1 trust
and believe the above statement sign
ed by me should and will receive
more favorable consideration than
statements which are so false that
parties making them are unwilling to
and dare not sign their names to
them. Very Respectfully,
w. A. WILKEN,
State Agt of German Ins. Co.

'Ineompatability OF temperament has
furnished some pretty meager reasons for
severance OF the marriage tie, but the
ground for this California decision appears
thinner still. II a wife is to be granted di-

deranged and husbands are to be given
legal warrant to desert their wives because

end? Wives may then be divorced for
growing too thin or too fat, and husbands

The 14th of the present month win be
Flag day, and in accordance with statutory
provisions, the governors of several of the
states have issued proclamatious recon-
mending that it be observed by suitable ex-
ercises In the public schools and by the
general display of the national colors Flag
day commentaries the date In l77I when
the Continental Congress adopted the reso-
luton selecting the stars and stripes as the
emblem of the nation. There is theory
that the device was derived by suggestion
from the coat of arms of the Washington
family. on which appear alternate bars of
red and white, answering to the stripe, and
rowels bearing some resemblance to stars
For this theory there is no authority, and
the similarity may be mere coincidence.
When the stars and stripes came into
being the flag of France was the old ban
ner of the iilies-the present tricolor was
the outcome of the French revolution. Ger
many's flag of red, white and black is of
a much later date, and the English flag Is
not exactly the same as 1t was in TIT,
having undergone notifications at the time
of the union with Ireland. It Is said that
the stars and stripes though only 129 years
have elapsed since it came into being Is
the oldest flag in the world.
