THE action of the citizens of James.

The action of the citizens of James
town. N. D., in standing by their
banking institution and preventing
a run by announcing their confidence
therein, is being commended every
where. 1t is the kind of action which
people everywhere should take, and
would result in restoring general con-
fdence in business circles throughout
the country. 1t is the common sense
way of handling such matters, far
superior to getting rattle-headed and
by withdrawing what they have de-
posted cripple business to that eX-
tent. 1t is pleasing to note that the
good sense which was exhibited at
Jamestown is now being manifested all
over the country, and from the east
comes the good news that money is
beginning to flow back into the chan
nels of trade, and affairs are again
taking more healthy look, so far at
least as finances are concerned. This
feeling of confidence is strengthened
by the belief that congress will repeal
the silver purchase act when it meets,
and to that end the sentiment OF the
country should be firmly crystalized.
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1893-07-21

THE Minneapolis Times pleads for
party harmony. With a session of
congress at hand and the wide differ
ence of opinion which exists therein
on financial matters, well it may. But
it is sincerely hoped there will be har-
mony among all believers Of honest
money without regard to party, which
will result IN giving us the wise legis-
lation we need in that line.

THE Minneapolis Times says that
"Supt. Porter seems to have encoun-
tered no difficulty in securing unani-
nous consent to retire." 1t is not
probable he expected any.

Propertv-Owners Annoyed.

The property-owners on Twenty-second
and also Fair Oaks streets are being har-
assed by street contractors. Complaints ts
are made that bills are presented for the
payment of paving the crossing OF the two
streets named with bitumen. although the
contractors have no right to collect cent
until the work has been accepted by the
city through the Board of Supervisors
The crossing il question was rejected by
the Supervisors three months ago. The
contractors were informed that the work
would have to be properly done and It'll
such time the property-o wners were exempt
from paying for it.
The contractors have, however, failed to
do anything toward completing the work
according 10 specifications, but within the
past week have annoyed the property
owners by threatening them with actions
at law if the bills which are presented are
not nald.
