SIAN } BY The PRESIDENT

This country is at the present time
facing grave International questions
IN view Il the blopdy cJrfiict raging
ia Europe and our troubles in Next
co. Every citissl of the country is
interested 10 the position OF the
Uni'ed States in Every matter that
arises as the result Of these situati ms
Whatever our personal views as to
thes4 matters may be we Inust look
u the authorities in contrib to guide
us safely through them. The grave
responsibility of dealing with all
questions that are now facing US Or
which we may hereafter ia e, must
he iea viii, wi'h an even hand
and firm Judgment. The man 4"
deal witt them is the President of
the United States. lie has dealt
with those that have heretofore arisen
and by virtue of his position will
have to solve those that may arise in
the future. The President as such
is the head Of the nation and it is onr
duty as American citizens to stand
behind him. We NAV differ witt
him in his manner of dealing with
foreign questions but whether we do
or not we are bound to back him up
if we have the red blood OF ameri
can citizenship and patriotism in u.
We differ with Woodrow WILSON in
many Of his ideas and Iolicies aud
are ready to eriiicise them at the pro-
per time. When he speaks, how
ever, in solving international ques-
tions, as President of the United
5 ates, vs. stand firmly behind him.
We believe in true americanism
which means nothing more mr. less
than patriotism and love of our coun-
Try. We, therefore, urge every
american citizen to stand firmly,
stauuchIy aud patrioiically behind
the President as the head of the
greatest nation on the globe.

New Bismarck Life Insurance
Company Writes Over a
Quarter Million.

Commencing business on June H.
last, the Provident Insurance Com
pany of Bismarck, North Dakota, or.
ganized for the writing of life insur.
ance, has just completed its first two
months period with business pro-
duction of considerably more than a
quarter of a million dollars. lnas'
much as the active organization OF
the company's agency force was not
commenced until about July I, practi.
cally all of this insurance has been
written during the past six weeks.
The officers are much pleased with
the results as at the same ratio as
the past two months, it indicates a
business volume the first year of
$2,OO0,000, which should be increased
with the rapid extension Of its pro.
ducing organization.
The "Provident'' has been fortu-
nate in making agency connections,
which include some of the best
known bankers and business men in
the state, many OF whom are stock
holders, giving them an added inter
est in the advancement of the COM
pany.
An active campaign for 100000
of business during 1916, is the goal
sought by the officers and the outlook
indicates that this amount will be
reached.
