Solution OF the Bank Guaran-
tee Problem

Now a mans property may be
insured against any contingency OF
loss, be that property what it may
including his cash deposited in
banks. A charter has recently been
issued by the state OF Missouri au-
thorizing the Bank Insurance &
indemnity Company OF Kansas City
to transact a general insurance bus
mess. But the special object OF the,
company is to insure the assets of
banks in an amount sufficient to
guarantee all depositors that their
money is absolutely secure.
This company has solved the
problem in a perfect simple and
business-like way, namely, to pro-
vide against loss to the individual
depositor by insuring the assets of
the banks against loss o. any and
every nature in an amount equal
to the deposits OF each bank. More
than six hundred banks have al
ready expressed an interest in this
company including a number in
western Missouri. Any one inter-
csted as a depositor can get the in
formation as to what banks have
availed themselves OF this chance
of absolutely protecting their de-
positors by writing to the Bank In
surance & Indemnity Company o.
Kansas City Mo.
This company's form OF policy
has been approved by the Attorney
General of the United States. Its
rates are based on actuarial fig
ures compiled by the leading actu-
airy of this country. The plans OF
operation have been furnished by
the most successful insurance and
fin ancial men in this country ani
tn, management is now in the hanls
"a the lost talent obtainable. its
OF iect is to make bank failures prac
tically impossible and to make 1t
absolutely impossible for a bank
depositor TO lose any money even
though his money is ON deposit in
a bank that should meet with dis
aster.
Great companies have arisen in
the past in response to demands
for insurance In almost every Ene
and now this company has been
formed for the purpose OF grant
ing form Of insurance that is OF
more Importance and more great
~ in demand than any other.

Our Anniversary

With this issue we begin the sth
year Of che Republican manage
ment. We want to lhank our
many friends and patrons for their
liberal support that has enabled us
TO build up one o. the best news
papers in the state outside o; the
large citiess
We have in turn been able to
issue a better paper and give more
for value received and not only
have our readers profited by it
but some o: our competitors have
caught the forward motion and
are giving their readers a better
paper also.
During the past seven years the
business o; >this paper has had a
steady increase, with not a single
backstep and the year just begun
looks more promising than any in
the past. During the past year
our increasing business compelled
us to add large cylinder press,
folding machine and new engine.
The coming year will require no
important additions but will en-
able us to square" ourselves with
the world and also allow US to
spend more in issuing a highgrade
paper.
We have kept faith with our read
ers when we promised to constant
ly improve the paper if given prop
er support. The improvement fe-
yer has not left us yet and we have
big plans ahead and want all our
present readers to get the benefit
of our advantages by staying with
US.

Marshall Postoffice Looted

In the lobby OF the Marshall
postoffice Is a notice giving par
ticularsgof a big haul made at the
postt dice Monday night. About
iSp lts. of Uncle Sans valualle as
sets we're quietly extracted that
night and are on the way to New
York. The postoffice force was
very much surprised on reaching
the office to find that one of the
oldest and most trusted employees
had absconded and on the desk
was bunch OF announcement left
by Calvin Bal:his admitting his
guilt, They read:
"Mr and Mrs. VIM. Klinger an
nounce the marriage of their
daughter Viola Julia to Mr.. Calvin
Breathitt Balthis, on Monday, Aug.
sixteenth, one thousand nine hun
dred and nine, Marshall Mo.
w don't want to insinuate that
Miss Klinger did the stealing. The
only guilty person in the case is Mr.
Balthis and we want to see him tor
tufed to the full extent of the
law. We don't think it was the
right way to treat his friends nor
the editors. We missed an op-
portunity OF printing one OF the
prettiest wedding notices ever
wrote--also missed the cake. The
grocers also lose the sale OF a lot
of rice, the jeweler of cut glass
dishes; the whole whole town has
a kick! And we advise him to
follow his wife's example before
returning-change his name-for it
will surely be Dennis or Balthis
hereafter. Another thing, we're
nor sgoing to say a single nice
thing about Mr.. Balthis, but the
hride-that's different.
She is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Klinger, one of Mar
shall,s most prominent families, is
not only one o. our popular and
handsome, young ladies, but has
achieved much success in musical
circles. She is prize worthy OF
something better than trombone
artist, who treats his friends thus
way.
They were quietly married by
Rev. j. e. Abbott at the Presbyter-
ian manse Monday night in the
presence of the immediate relatives
Miss Margaret Klinger and John
Balthis as attendants. On their
rr;,rL from an Eastern trip they
will temporarily reside at the home
of the groom's mother on Eas
Vest.
We wish the bride a long and
happy married lie and the groom
many days in which to repent o;
a Eneaking trick to dodge the
boys!
