Judge Little, of Junction City, the state
superintendent of the Michigan Mutual
Life Insurance Co., who is now in the city,
said to an E("i.KrepH'senUithe today that
the grand old Michigan Mutual Life is
like Wichita in this: Wichita is thcveiy
lest city in Kansas, and always will be,
and his companj' is the best now in Kan
isand always will be. If the judge's
opinion of his company is as well founded
as his idea of Wichita is, we have no doubt
of its inttinsic merit, and ve will .oon
see irs motto victory in letters of gold
imprinted upon eery banner in the gi eat
