Nine ont Of ten of the banks that
suspended during the past week have
assets double the amount Of their lia-
bilities. Then why did they fail?
Because no bank keeps cash enough
in lis vaults 10 stand n run.
The object Of banks Is two-fold-io
receive deposits and 10 loan money.
No money can be loaned IL banks
must keep all their funds constantly
on hand 50 rs to be able TO meet Il run.
If people would only keep this fact
in mind, during times of panic, and
not lose their heads, there would be
very few bank failures. There Is not
a bank in the United States that can
stand long-continued rum Yet there
are very few that have not assets far
in excess Of their liabilities.
Keep cool. People who have mon
ey in Vermont banks have no occasion
10 worry. Vermont banks are as sol
id a. her granite hills.

all payable ON demand. There is no
question but that his assets are SO. 900

some one hears a rumor that he has
lost few hundred dollars. and all his
creditors at once demand their money.
What would be the result in such
times as these?-Failurr. Not because
he cannot pay but because he has not
the ready cash to pay on demand.

The railroads in the Central Traffic
Association are giving their patrons
the benefit Of half rates 10 the World
Fair going in special trains composed
OF day coaches. As vet, the New
England association makes no move
10 do likewise and probably will not.
This is not because some of the roads
do not favor giving the people low
rates but because one or two Of the
stronger roads block the scheme From
the start, the G. V. II. X. and Il. N
NJ. railroads favored a low rate of $50
or $24. but their wishes We're over
ruled. The Central Vermont has al
ways been in favor of giving the peo-
pie the benefit of the lowest possible

that the choice samples shown at the
Worlds Fair are backed up by tons

portrait is one of The most remarkable
for intense vitality and strong ex-
preston of personal character. among
the many remarkable works Of the
kind that Mr.. llar,lie has produced in
the last few years: indeed il is almost
the keenest impression of life that has
yet come from this vigorous and tall
ented hand. IL is portrait which
looks and listens and judges: il is a
portrait IN the presence Of which no
one would utter secrets: nor would il
be discreet to criticise, except IN the
most reserved manner. the palpable
characteristics of the subject. senator

portraying him.

KETTLE FALLS, Jan. 2S.-(Special. "A
number Of prominent Stevens county peo-
ple were discussing the senatorial contest
the other day. and it was surprising to see
how they all considered Allen the man for
the place. The general reason seemed to
be that Senator Allen was in touch with
the people of the entire state. Evidently
they thought they "knew just where he
stood" and he had firm hold on the af-
fections of the men who were speaking. II
Stevens county had sent Republican
to the legislature this year it would have
been woe to that Republican if he had not
voted for Alien.
