business man to enter the vault, lock-
ed them in and secured all the curren-

across the line in Oklahoma. -Four
posses are in pursuit and as the roads
are muddy, it is believed the rob-
bers will be eatpured. The robbers
secured but half an hours start. Teh
robbery was one of the most daring
ever executed in this part of Kansas,
the scene of many bold hold ups on
the part of the Dalton, Starr and 9TH

The views of the writer with ref
erence to life insurance and the char
acter of company that should furnish
it to the people of Mississippi, is very
we'll known to a majority of our peo-
pie. Three years ago campaign was
made for the organization of a mu
tual company to be located in the
state and owned and organized by cit
izens of the state. The laws of the
state were such that the effort to or
ganize a mutual company failed, but
regular stock company was perfect
ed and is doing an excellent business.
1t is gratifying to note the success OF
Mississippi's first life insurance COM
pany, its success making it less diff
cult to organize the second one.
The ideal company is one that il
mutual in every sense Of the word
the policy holders being the power
that selects the management and die
tates the policy to be pursued. One in
which the people who pay their pre-
miums and thereby furnish the sinews
of war, have the sole right to say how
its affairs shall be conducted. A great
majority of the companies doing bust
ness are purely stock affairs whereby
the owners of the stock are the sole
dictators of the conditions on which
policies shall be issued and the plans
for payment of so-called dividends.
Ten men may own the capital stock
of one hundred thousand dollars and
ten thousand men who hold insurance
in the concern and pay into it more
than 100000 per annum have to
depend upon the ten stock holders
to say how it shall be managed and
how much of the profits are to be
returned to them. When any amount
is returned to policy holders it means
just that much hess for the stock
holders. Admitting that the stock
holders are good business men all
right as the world sees them, at the
same time it might go against the
grain to considerable extent for
them to say that we have participated
in the profits long enough and we will
now let the policy holders participate
for while. When will they do
thatf

1t is imperative that the press, the
pulpit and good citizenship of our
state take a decided stand for the en-
forcement of law and punishment OF
its violators. The greatest compli-
ment that eould be paid any state or
community, is, that its people are God
fearing and law abiding. Let's have it
said that Mississippi is the most law
abiding state of the Union. The Far
mers Union has an organization in al
most every community of the state,
and it is in their power to exert
powerful influence for good along the
line of strict enforcement of the law.
1t is founded upon equity, justice and
the golden rule, and its members are
of the best people in our state. They
are law abiding themselves and it is
their duty as citizens to see that the
laws are strictly enforced Some
friend has said: "No country without
respect for its laws, can rise above
the savage, who knows no form OF
government and has no conscience to
prick him for his sins; and unless
our laws are respected and upheld by
the people, our country is unsafe, our
homes in peril and the foundation up
on which the government stands as
a guarantee Of equal rights to all, is
tottering upon the brink of destruc-
ton. Anarchy will follow where our
laws are disregarded, And this is all
too true. Mississippi must be the ban
ner state for enforcement of the law
in the Union and the citizenship can
easily make it that.
