An effort is being made to start
another bank in this city. J. H. Patter-
son is the moving spirit in the matter.
We understand several parties have offer
ed to put money into the enterprise. and
that it is likely to be success. It is the
general impression that Schleuder and
Coats new building is being erected for
the hank; but we have it from good
authority that this is not the fact. The
location will be the building soon to be
vacated by Clark & Cooks hardware
stock. Mr.. Patterson says he expects to
start State Bank with capital of $685.
600 if those who agree to take stock stand
by it. If he cannot get the stock sub
scribed, he will start a personal private
bank.
