The report concludes as follows: "An ex-
animation OF the figures illustrates the ten
dency of the times. the years of prosperity
and OF business depression in the west.
While the number of associations has de-
creased from Sc in 1894 to Ga in 1898, the
decrease in assets has been less than half
million dollars. The falling off is due to
the period OF liquidation succeeding the
boom era OF the SOS. AS the figures show.
the influence OF depressed business mani
tested itself in association assets in 1896, and
continued to the close OF 1895 at the same
time increasing the value of real estate Sc
curity on the books OF associations. 1t
should be noted, however, that the value OF
mortgage loans in 1898 was within Sl4 900
Of the highest point GS95), showing clearly
the return OF normal business conditions,
The marked decrease in the number OF as
sociations is largely due to the tendency
toward consolidation of smaller associations,
It Is to be observed, also, that the number
OF shares In force was greater in 1898 than
in any previous year and that the receipts
for 1898 and capital stock paid up were
greater than In any year covered by the

Business Methods.
The constitution and bylaws of the as
sociation contained a complete, though
brief, set of rules and a plan of business
fashioned after the simple methods in
vogue in Philadelphia. Capital stock was
limited to 1000 shares OF $500 each. Nearly
400 shares were issued by the association,
and over 300 matured showing that the
original subscribers stayed in until the
finish period Of six years and seven
months Dues of so cents week on each
share were required. A fine of 5 cents a
week per share was imposed for nonpayment
OF dues. Money was loaned under the pre-
MUM system, the borrower bidding the
highest premium being entitled to 5000 for
each share held to the limit of ten shares,
or $4,000. The demand for money in those
days was great and premiums of 40 and 80
per cent were common. Borrowers could
repay their loans at any time and were en-
titled to a refund of a pro rata share of the
premium bid for the money. II bidder
failed to put up satisfactory security fine
OF so cents per share was imposed. The
interest charge was 35 cents a week on each
share borrowed on. An entrance fee of 80
cents a share was charged; transfers cost
25 cents share. and Withdrawals were free
on thirty days notice Then, as now, only
e-half OF the receipts were available for
payment Of Withdrawing members.
The Second Association.
The North Platte association was organ
lied on the one-series plan, and as before
stated ceased to exist when the series of
shares matured. 1t proved so great sue
cess and became so popular among railroad
men that they sang its praises along the
railroad and were directly instrumental in

Mr. White, now a resident OF Omaha, was

Replying to Inquiries concerning methods
and membership, he said: ''The shares

seat was the internal revenue assessorship

statehood While Senator Upton was a
citizen Of Nebraska he resided in Nemaha
county.
Considered in the aggregate the deceased
was one Of the most unique characters who
ever took part in frontier politics In this
or any state. 1t is said that he was
absolutely fearless, shrinking neither from
man nor devil, and that he would speak his
sentiments, no matter what sacrifice might
be entailed. He had no diplomacy, and
valued his enemies, it is said as highly as
he did his friends.
