BANK OF RED WlNa.-We have once be-
fore mentioned the fact that we have an in
s,itution Of the above mamie in our midst;
and now we propose to tell on: readers
what Ii Is. 1t is not the old Bank Of Hs.i
Wing. That cocc"rn was 4 branch Of the
great railroad swindle Of 1857. Its issue
was secured, (if security it may b called
by pledge Of Railroad bonds, that were MT
worth and did not bring. thirteen cents on
the dollar.
The only resemblance the present Bank
Of Red Wing has to the old co?cern, is
its name. Wells s. Dickinson is its Presi
dent, and Pascal Smith is Cashier. These
gentlemen have been doing business in
Red Wing Is Bankers and Brokers, since
1857 land are we'll known. Ofthem We need
not say word. OF their Bank we will say,
they are authorized to issue, and will issue
only $25, 600, to secure which, they have
deposited United States interest bearing
bends to the amount Of S27, 500; making
their notes Of greater intrinsic value than
"Green Backs,' because the Government
paper may depreciate ten per cent, and ye,
there is enough deposited t. make the bills
Of the Dank Of Red Wing worth their face.
Now word Of advice to farmers. II you
want money that you can have confidence
in-that you can lay by, got Government
paper, or, The paper Of the homo bank
Why because, you may justly be suspc-
ions Of much Of the other money that is
in the West. The worthless
banks, aud those that are on their "last
legs' in the East, send their notes out here,
in order to get them away from home, and
keep them away. Many Of them are thou
sands Of dollars worse than dead broke,
md yet by flooding the country by the evi
1cnce of the indebtedness. receiving ia re.
turn an equivalent, they are able to keep
along. Bns when t;:ey do 80, they 90 al!
under, for their security. like tn: oM Bank
Of Red Wing, Is more Worthless than the
institution itself

my IN the State, ard now We have tho cor.
roboration Of that belief The mill that Mr.

III OF the best mills in the 6,a,e. The trial
proved It's superiority over thorn all. Gram

cleaner than any other mill on the ground
