''Why do you look so jolly, Jones?"
"I'll tell you, Smith, 1 havo just
cancelled my jioliey in a mutual fire
and lightning company, paying a dollar
to get out and have takon out an old
line policy with one of K. L. Pierce's
old line companies. I never fait right
in a mutual company a iew big losses
would throw such a company into the
hands of a receiver and I would be as
itwml to py the e,pmi$u of winding
up iU affaiig and my nlicy would
cease to piotttct me."
"But Jones, is it tuiy diffotout with
tht! old line companies?"
"AUocQthar differunt my dear friond,
altogether different. In tho first placo
they have h capital paid up; they hava
a iHU-plufi fund in addition which holpe
make jwliciea safe; they reinsure a part
of all large iteks so when a large lose
compa it does not cripple the com
miny. T'hoy can't charge you a dollar
to gat out your policy lapsing whan the
tlina for wliiqli you have paid expiree."
''But Jones the tnutuals say that
they have the best proposition because
they offer insurance at actual cost."
"Look hero sirl don't you know
there is a big difference between theory
and practice between things as we
reason them out as they ought to be
and as they are? Competition will keep
prices of old line insurance down to a
reasonable margin of profit which we
are all willing to allow. On the other
hand mismanagement, lack of capital
and confidence, remoteness of member
ship from central office and many other
things tend to make the mutuals expen
sive and unsatisfactory."
"Jones I believe you are right. I
was persuaded to take such a policy,
but as soon as I can dig up a dollar I
shall cancel out. But I want an old
line policy; who did you say itisured
your"
"K. L. Pierce of Hcmingford. I in
sured my cattle, horses and buildings
for five years at Si. 75 per $100.00."
Moral: Go thou and do likewise.

OUR MAMMOTH EDITION
Will Contain a General Summary of the County's
Industrial Pursuits, Historical Events, Bio
graphical Sketches, Etc. Many Half
tone Views to Appear, with Col- N
umns of Interesting Reading.
apIVE THOUSAND COPIES is the number decided on
JJ by the management of The Herald as a special sou
venir edition, to be issued from this office during- the
month of February. The purpose of this mammoth is
sue is to promulgate the many industrial advantages so
numerous in this section of Northwestern Nebraska, and vet
not generally known to the outside world.
An effort will also be made to induce homeseekers to lo
cate in our midst and assist in developing one of the richest
most fertile and productive sections in all of Nebraska.
Located at a most advantageous point, with railroad
facilities leading in all directions, especially tapping the great
northwest sections of South Dakota, Montana and Wyom
ing, with Alliance, by reason of her location, as the natural
distributing point, is there any excuse why the metropolis of
Northwestern Nebraska should not strain a point in inducing
manufacturing industries to seek Alliance as the logical point
for such enterprises?
' With the county's immense potato crops the largest and
best in-the known world it would seem to a visionary mincl
that a starch factory should be among the early probabilities
thus furnishing a home market for this one product. '
In the early spring thousands of migrators are dailv
passing our doors, seeking a future place of residence and
hunting desirable localities to invest their surplus wealth
Alliance, seemingly dormant or in a state of lethargy has
calmly watched this great mass of homeseekers pass on with
out even a hint at our own possibilities. All this it will be
our aim in the future to remedy.
. Copies of this illustrated edition will not only visit every
home in this section of the country, but thousands will be sent
broadcast and to foreign climes, thus giving this locality such
an advertising as it has ncvar before received.
It will contain a general and descriptive' write-up of this
portion of the state, biographical sketches of pioneers busi
ness and professional men, interior and exterior views of
business houses, public buildings, and a six-column view of
the town proper and a birdseye of its principal street
Tim Hekald has secured the services of A. 13. Evans a
specialist in this class of work, who has seen many vcars
service on the great dailies of this continent, and a most
creditable edition may be expected.
