J. J. Craig, who has been here this
we k in the interest ot the North-
western National Life insurance Co.,
of Minneapolis, Minnesota, left last
night for bis home at Ponca City. He
expects to return in a day or two.
While here Mr. Craig wrote a num-
ber of large policies in his company.
The Northwestern National Life is
becoming pretty well known in Chan-
dler and it is a company whose ad-
vantages need only to be understood
to be appreciated. This company be-
gan active work in Oklahoma and
Indian territories only last March,
yet in these ten months it has written
policies aggregating $1,000,000.
After years of experience and study
on the subject of investment and pro-
tection the Northwestern National
Life has perfected a policy which is
without a peer in the life insurance
market.
This policy is a ten, fifteen or twenty
year endowment policy with an in-
creasing death benefit for which the
premiums are the same as ordinarily
charged for level death benefit
policies.
Taking a $10,000 twenty-year endow-
ment policy as an example: The
amount payable in event of the death
of the insured increases each year.
Should he die the first year the com-
pany will pay to his beneficiary $10,-
000; should he die the second year his
beneficiary will receive $10,750. The
fifth year the death benefit is $11,870.
The tenth year $13,750. The fifteenth
year $15,620 and the t ventieth year
$17,500.
If we are, according to this policy,
living at the end of twenty years, $10,-
000 is paid us in cash by the company
together with all of the profits which
have accumulated with compound in-
terest for twenty years.
The holder of one of these policies
can arrange the payment of the death
benefit in the form of a monthly in-
come. If death occurs the first year
the company will pay to beneficiary
$60 per month for twenty years. Tne
monthly payment increases according
to the year in which death occurs.
These policies are the only contracts
of the kind on the market and are is-
sued by one of tne largest legal re

serve companies in the west which
familiarly known as the Giant of the
northwest. The Northwestern Na-
tional Life Insurance compauy is a
western company for western people.
The same policy contains liberal
cash surrender, paid up endowment,
and paid up life insurance options for
the holder who desires to discontinue
before the policy has matured.
One of the most important features
of this policy is the provision for bor-
rowing money. Many times it becomes
necessary for us to borrow money for
a long or short period of time.
Ordinarily it is necessary to give a
note or a note secured by mortgage.
Under the conditions of this policy
the company guarantees liberal loans
on the sole security of the policy and
for any length of time.
The Northwestern National Life In-
surance company was organized in
1885 and closed its first year with
assets amounting to $600.46. Year
by year its assets have increased until
at the present time it is possessed of
over $5,500,000. While accumulating
this enormous sum the company has |
paid to the widows and orphans of its
policy holders and in profits nearly
$4,000,000. Jealous of the success of
this company, a few of the eastern in-
stitutions have attempted in various
ways to curtail its success. Kepeat-
edly articles have appeared in a so-
called insurance journal published in
the east defaming the Northwestern
National life and warning the public
against it. If this warning be heeded
the western people will pass by their
own company and will insure in the
east. This is the object of the attacks
upon the Northwestern National Life
It would be wise, however, for all
who may be interested to take the
opinion of the twenty-three different
insurance departments which license
this company to transact its business
as an old line legal reserve company
in their respective states rather than
be guided by the opinion (?) of rival
agents or subsidized defaming jour-
n a Is, as to the stability of the largest
legal reserve company west of the
Mississippi river.
investigation has shown that the
writer of most of these articles is em-
ployed in the office of one of the great
eastern companies and it is well un-
derstood that the magazine publish-
ing his writings is in the control of
the company he works for. Another
magazine which has made this same
attempt to injure the Northwestern
National Lite, has in an unguarded
moment, answered decoy letters and
has offered to publish any article de-
sireu for a certain money considera-
tion. Such publications have had but
little effect upon the company attacked
and it would appear that this effect
has been ben ficial to the company.
Wherever this company has been slan-
dered and it has come to the attention
of its representatives, a full explana-
tion has been made to those who have
doubted and they have become its
warmest supporters.

sticking together. We can do this
more effectually than any other class
because we produce the necessities of
life. No farmer, no food. No farmer,
no cotton, wool or linen for clothing.
To do away with the farmer removes
the heart from the nation, and noth-
ing can live without a heart. For
years past the farmer has been the
goose that all plucked. At first be
wus well fed: that proved to be some-
what expensive so the feed has been
shortened from time to time, until he
has become almost too thin to be
productive.
Now, fellow farmers, you know that

Farmer’s organization offers the best
plan yet offered for uniting our
forces, If any locality in Lincoln
county has not heard from us, write
to me, and I or some other organizer
will come to you and explain the

Editor Publicist:
I Kindly allow me space for a few
words to the farmer as to his future
state under the present business sys-
tem. I can see only slavery to further
enrich the already rich men. We have
already reached the significant stage
of depression in which we do not de-
mand our just rights.
Every other line of business has
I profited by combination. Why should
not the farmers do the same as the
railroad and standard oil companies
have done? We us a united body can
accomplish what we undertake by
