Because They Do Business in q Way
Which is Safe and Sound.
Reports regarding the suspension or
assignment of savings banks in some Of
the western states indicate that they are
accustomed to methods of employing
their deposits which are not regarded as
legitimate or safe in this part of the
country. Some of them seem to be
closely associated with banks Of dis
count and to have their funds largely
involved in the business of those instItu-
tions. If the latter become embarrassed
the funds of the savings banks are put
in peril.
In this state and in most eastern
states savings banks are required to in
vest their deposits in certain classes Of
securities which are deemed entirely
safe. Security is the first consideration
| and profit or rate of interest secondary.
The funds cannot be loaned in the ordi-
nary way of business or placed at the
/ command of other banks for such use.
| \ large proportion is invested in real
| estate mortgages not exceeding one
/ half the value of the property by which
| they are secured, and the bonds held
are such as fiuctuate very little in value
and always find a ready market. De
posts in other banks are only made
with reference to current needs.
But the reports indicate that western
| savings banks are used rather largely a,
4 means of accommodating small deposits
and placing them at the command

business. This is a perllous way o.
making use of the funds of saving
banks, and is not a legitimate invest

Kelly Says

The silver dollar is as good as gold.
Uncle Sam says when put my initials on
silver dollar it is as goHd as gold, no
matter where you go, and KELLY says
here is the proof. A few weeks ago !
went into a Brokers Office in this city and
put down 25 Silver Dollars on his desk
and told him l wanted to send it to my
father in the Old Country, and 1 asked
him how much they would be worth when
they got there, and he said they would be
worth sovereigns or $25 90 in gold; h =
told me the truth, because this morning l
received letter stating that l got your
draft which received 5 gold sovereigns
for this morning. thanks, etc.
This knocks the foundation from under
that argument that silver dollar is worth
only So cents.
Silver is the peoples money. One of
KELLY'S reasons for saying so is this
Abundance of monev means high wages;
high wages means extravaganza; and it is
our extravaganza that have made US the
the happiest people on the face of the
globe. For the last IS years our finances
have been governed by the silver dollar,
and if You can find any other country that
have been any more progressive than we
have we should adopt their method for the
basis of money.
One other reason that every banker and
broker and money loaner in the land
wants the United States to stop making
silver dollars ia order to increase their
rates of interest. Another reason why we
should coin silver dollars is that 1t lakes
$3S. 600. 900 a year to keep up the circula
ton of $25 to every individual. We add
to our population yearly. Take notice
that this is a very important reason now
where the individual, the private cor
poration and the general commerce of the
country injured by an arrangement under
which IS, 900, 900 or s., SOC, 900 of money
is monthly taken out of the treasury and
put into circulation among the people
We have heard of panics from a scarcity
of money. 1t is possible that our panic
has been brought about by too much of
that useful article.
In my humble opinion l. was brought
about by the shelving of Mckinley and

The New Episcopal Rector.

The Rev. Daniel G. MacKinnop, rector
of the Episcopal church, arrived here on
Friday last from Everett, Wash, where
he has met with much success. In this
connection the Everett report published
in The Liring Church, of Chicago, says
This parish has had wonderful growth.
Nine months ago the Rev. Daniel G.
MacKinnon came to this city to what
was then mission OF seven communi-
cants. The services where conducted in
rented hall. To-day this parish has a
chapel, guild hall. and rectory, and the
number OF communicates have increased
to l40. The guilds are doing good
work. On Easter Day surplice choir OF
twenty-foar men and boys made their
first appearance. Bishop Wells visited
this parish short time ago and con-
firmed fourteen. A strong mission is
supported by this parish on the river side"
MIR. MacKinnon is % years of age, was a

REGULAR SESSION or The CITY COUNCIL.
Bends OF Officers Appreved--0pen.
ing Of streets Across the Railroad
Censidered--slisceiiaaeeus.

The city council met in regular session
Monday evening, With Mayor Prosser in
the chair and all members present. After
the reading Of minutes and other prelim-
inaries, the mayor submitted message
stating that he had approved the bonds
of the city officers.
The matter Of the suit OF the city against
the N. r. r. X. for the opening OF A
street was called up and discussed. Fred
r. Reed asked privilege to speak on the
question, and stated that he had recently
had talk with Assistant General Man
ager Dickinson, who stated that Superin-
tendent Prowell had advised the appro-
priation Of $1,000 for the improvement of
depot facilities here, and that the COM
pany was ready to go ahead with the
work, but were deferred by the agitation
to open up the streets across the rght-of-
way, and If they were compelled to move
the depot they would take il to some
point far enough away to have plenty Of
trackage room aud no fear OF disturb
ance. Personally, Mr.. Reed said he had
refused to sign the petition for removal,
as he thought the depot for city of this
class was in its proper place. He had
gathered from Mr.. Dickinson's remarks
that the company would be willing to
open up one Of the streets, but he be-
lieved condemnatory proceedings would
prove injurious to the city's interests.
Councilmen John Reed and j. T.
Kingsbury appeared to be Of like opin-
ion, while Councilman Kuechler thought
that the wishes Of the great number OF
petitioners who had asked for the open
ing OF the streets should receive proper
consideration. On motion of Council
man Reed, the mayor and city attorney
were made committee to investigate the
status OF the case, with power to take
such action as they deemed advisable.
The final report of ex-City Treasurer
Steinweg, showing cash balance on
hand Of IS, 223.a7, and turned over to his
successor June 8, was read and referred
to the finance committee.
The final report of exCity Justice Hen
ton, with accompanying check for $S3. 80,
was referred to the committee on police.
The recommendations of the police
committee were adopted providing for the
purchase of marshal's record book,
three billies and dark lantern.
A resolution was submitted and adopted
making the rate of interest per cent on
city warrants not paid for want of funds
On motion of Reed, the attorney was
instructed to draft an ordinance creating
salary fund and setting aside monies
paid in for license.
On motion OF Kingsbury. the city at
torney was instructed to draft an ordi-
nance making it misdemeanor to propel
bicycles, carts or wheelbarrows on side
walks, and compelling cyclers to provide
their wheels with bells or horns and to
carry lanterns after dark.
The petition Of Butler & Shuk for the
renewal of their saloon license was
granted.
The committee on public improvements
was authorized to continue such work on
the city park as in its judgment was
deemed advisable.
