The Webster City Bank has sold its
business and Bank building to the Far
mers and Merchants Bank, the transfer
having been made Tuesday. Mr.. Curtis
retires from South Dakota banking for
the purpose of accepting the position as
cashier of the newly organized First
National Bank, of Petosky, Mich. Since
coming among US Mr.. Curtis has made
many warm friends in a business and
social wav, who will regret his departure
and the best wishes OF the people follow
him. Mr.. Williams, President CT the
Farmers and Merchants Bank, informs
the REPoRTsR that il is their intention I
remain in their present commodious
office and to extend the same business
courtesies to the former patrons of the
Webster City Bank as they have always
enjoyed.
1t is quite a novel way for q bank to
close out its affairs one day and pay It's
depositors in full the next day as did the
Webster City Bank. Mr.. Curtis object
in selling out is fully explained by the
following extract from the Petosky,
mich. Record:
The details have not been fully per-
fected at this time, but the necessary
legsl steps have been taken for the
organization of The First National
Bank of Petosky," with q capital Of one
hundred thousand dollars. VIM. l..
Curtis will hold a large block of stock,
some thirty or forty thousand, Mr.. Wylie
wall have ten or fifteen thousand, Chal-
mers Curtis ten thousand and the bal
ance being distributed among fifteen or
twenty of our beet business men. VIM.
L. Curtis will be president Of the bank
and Chalmers cashier. His bank at
Webster, which mas been a very prof.
table one, will probably be sold, in order
that he can devote his entire time to this
business.
The reorganization under the United
States laws will not give Petosky a
stronger bank; for nc financial institution
could be safer or sounder than the old
Petosky City Bank under Curtis &Wylies
management. But in the estimation of
the public the federal supervision and
backing of a national bank gives it a
greater prestige and the numerous adj
vantages enjoyed by a bank under the
national system makes 1t much more
desirable than the best and safest private
bank. On these accounts the change
will be a direct benefit to those fortunate
enough to get stock and indirectly to the
town and country.
1t will take some time to close up the
affairs of the present business and open
under the new system and il is quite
likeIv that the new bank will not begin
business urtil the first of January.

THAT SENATORIAL INVESTIGATION,
A Republican Correspondents of the Pitts
burg Dispatch is Afraid of It.

A Republican Correspondents of the Pitts
burg Dispatch is Afraid of It.
Special to Pittsburg Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, April 11.--II the Republi,
can minority in the United States Senate
insists upon an investigation of the
charges against Senator Roach, il is said
here tonight, they will stir up a general
scandal that will astonish the public. The
Republicans may get the worst of the
fight, moreover, because tits the Senators
of their party who are now under fire.
The past records OF several OF the Sena-
tors from the new States will not bear ins
spection, and agents are now in Washing
ton with evidence from the testimony of
court records that will, IL published or
discussed in the Senate, cause Senators
HansbrouRh, Power and one or two others
great and serious embarrassment.
The Roach case is undoubtedly a bad
one, but some Of the most influential Re-
pubIicans in the Senate refuse to indorse
the effort Of Senators Hoar and Chandler
to force an investigation, for the simple
reason that they dread the public scandal
that will follow. They know also that IL
the investigation Is held the Republicans
WON'T get the best OF it.
VOORHEES, ATTACKS SENATOR HoAR,
Senator Voorhees, defended Senator
Roach, whose case had been drawn into
the controversy by Senator Hoar, and the
Kansas case was entirely lost sight of in
the debate that followed. Senator Voor.
hees went on to say, shaking his finger at
Senator Hoar, that he thanked God he did
not belong to that inquiSitorial race that
sought to blacken the reputation of their
fellow men. He proceeded, with power
ful invectives, to criticise the action of the
minority In trying to hold up to public
scorn and criticism Senator Roach upon
charges dating back Is years. He referred
to Senator Roach's standing among the
people Of South Dakota, who were respon-
sible for his presence in the Senate, and
denied the right OF the Senate to try him
for alledged misdoings long before he
ever became member of that body.
Senator Chandler took a hand in the
discussion and declared that he was will.
ing that the character of every Rspubli-
can Senator should be fully investigated.
Senator German also took part in the
debate, and declared that If the Republi-
cans were determined to force this inves-
tigAtion into the moral characters of
Senators prior to their entry into the Sem
ate, 1t should be made with open doors,
and every member of the body should be
counted upon the stand up and give the
Senate and the couutry an opportunity
to overhaul his past life.
HILL HAS TO TAKE A HAND, TOO.
Senators Hill and Butler also took par
in the discussion, which grew more heat
ed every minute.
