What the Hank Statements show In

Gainesville Texas. March l7.--There has
been no time in the history Of this coun-
ty when money has been so scarce among
the people" as now. OF course the banks
take care Of their friends. and there or
Whereabouts they draw the line. Yet to
read their statements Of March 0 II is hard
to understand why II is so. They show cash
on hand or In other banks; Red River Ma
tional bank. s64,9i5.a6; Gainesville National
bank. Sl0i. $3.50. First National bank,
1854 ,so2.S5 total cash ON hand, $a2t. 1il.7i.
Nearly half million dollars, and this In
a town OF 5000 people. The capital stock OF
the three banks is s37500o. Yet they show
! loans and discounts to be 81 900. 1l0.ss; de-
posits, s7l6 .6g4.6S. Should these statements
| not prove a better state of affairs than in
dictated on the surface? community the
size Of this that can hold in bank these
times nearly three fourths OF million
dollars should not be In the complaining
column. Is not the whole State Of Texas
| fully as prosperous as this county? We
should all stop singing the old song: "lts
a long time coming" and jcin in the
chorus OF THE year OF jubilee has come. .
A good crop this year will place Texas faI
ahead OF any State In the Union and all
| signs point that way now.

MATTER TO STUDY OVER.
The Commissions Latest Promised
Commodity Tariff.
IS BLANKET SYSTEM TO BE CHANGED;
THIS Feature Ia Certainly Absent in
proposed New Commodity Tarim
in Certain Distances Named.

For the information OF the commercial
community attention is called to the latest
commodity tariff Of the railroad commits
sion Of Texas, as outlined In their circulars
Nos. 1893, 1876 and 39s, March, 1897. II 1t is
seriously proposed the author certainly
betrays an alarming ignorance of rate maxi
ing and all precedents ever established in
this particular branch of the railroad bust
ness. 1t is both novel and amusing. The
basis for rates shown in table No. ! seem
to be less than car load rates from the
Mississippi river to Texas common points.
less the carload rate from and to the same
points. with few exceptions, and numerous
errors in the classification OF articles
named. Exceptions referred to above are on
the following commodities: Furniture, ap-
pies and vegetables. ammunition. grocer
les. hardware, iron stoves and stove furni-
turc, beer. crackers and packing house
products. while errors in classification are
conspicuous in rating of the following
articles:
Fencing and railing. stoves. furniture.
crackers, grindstones beer, axle grease,
crockery. packing house products, wooden
ware. scale beams. oil, petroleum.
A comparative statement verifying above
will appear in Thd Post in few days aud
the errors and Inconsistencies will be more
apparent.
A casual inspection OF the proposed tariff,
however, reveals the following astounding
results:
/. A combination OF locals for distance
of l51 miles and less will produce less
rates than provided for greater distances.
Example: Rate on crackers, less than car
lead, l5l miles. is cents. added to rate
for AZ miles is cents makes rate for 1919
miles Sc cents. against "a cents shown in
tariff for this distance.
2. Less than carload rates shown are in
nearly every case lower than carload rates.
3. Carload rates shown are in some cases
| higher than the less than carload rates.
Example, Scale beams, carload, from Gal
weston 80 cents. Less than carload rates
made sum of locals las shown In note No
| u would make common point rate not ex-
cecding AZ cents for distance Of 302 miles
and less from Houston.
4. Glass ratings now approved by the
railroad commission seem to have been
| ignored entirely, and ratings nearly all
through are the same, whether freight is
| classified first or fourth class. Example
Groceries. less than carload, rate on all
classes for ISL miles is 81 cents.
Thu Houston Past has all. along boom un-
der the impression confirmed by tariffs
already issued by the railroad commission
of Texas, that the blanket system of
rate making was conceded as being an
equitable adjustment, while this feature is
certainly conspicuous in its absence, for
distances exceeding ISL miles in the pro-
posed schedule
