PoNrER.-Some people claim that
times are harder here than in the east.
The following is pointer on The subject:
An eastsrn gentleman visiting Portland
says: "TheNorthwest is very well known
in the east. and my impression is that
Oregon and Washington are on the eve
OF general improvement, caused by a
desirable in migration. In Nebraska
they have had almost a total failure OF
crops, and Iowa las suffered greatly in
this respect also. In Oregon you do not
know what hard times are, and am GER
tain that there has not been one tenth
ct the suffering financial distress that
there has been seen in the east during
the past year or more"
Hrs OwN BANK.-Fred Spitz5ar.h, a
German fruit grower living at Milwaukee,
IN Clackamas county, reported 10 the
sheriff Saturday that he was robbed of
$3.50, which in a tin can was concealed
IN the cellar. The money was made up
Of div idends on deposits in banks that
suspended last year, which the old m an
Ezd resolved to handle himself instead of
entrusling It TO the banks again. Another
lesson for those who thi.k money can be
kept as safely at home as in a go;d bank.
Tin can may be as safe as very poor banks
but not as good banks.
