The Wisconsin bankers are opposed
to branch banks and asset currency,
preferring the independent bank, -
and ask their congressional repre-
sentatives to oppose both. The
question for congressman to consider,
it striks us, is not what banks wish
or do not wish, but what will best
serve the interests of the public
whom banks are designed to serve.
As human nature runs, as our
business men are educated by nation
al legislation to regard government,
it is but natural that banker in a
country town would not like to have
competition. in the lending OF money
by the branch Of a bank at the
greater financial centers by which
the rates of interest might be lower
ed. Bnt the banker is only one
man among a thousand and the vel

Agricultural and Mechanic Arts at
Ames was totally destroyed by fire
at o'clock last Thursday. The north

has been condemned by the state
architect and was to have been torn
down to make room for a new
building provided for by the last

Henry Watterson, who has been
spoken of as a Democratic candidate
Of a governor Of Kentucky and for
President of the United States,
caused a sensation on the political
circles of the state by addressing a
letter to the Democrats of the state
in which he says he will not be a
candidate for the governorship. He
declares that he has always stood
for honesty in politics and that he
will not oppose machine. He says
he has never handled an unclean
dollar in his life and would not
hold an Office that money could
buy. His stand is believed to leave

DR.. 7. F. Rodwell, physician in
charge of the Cass Lake Indians,
under direction of the Indian de-
partment, has made an investiea-
ton as to the amount of pine timber
that was blown down out of Cass
Lake, during the recent very severe
storm. The doctor finds that there
was about 5000, 900 feet Of both
white pine and Norway-mostly
Norway-which had been blown
down, much Of which was uprooted,
and some twisted badly. The pine
is located in town 143, range 81, and
the area swept by the storm en-
braces about 700 acres. It is very
likely that this timber will be logged
in the near future, recommendations
to that effect having been made to
the authorities at Washington. The
timber is in close proximity to the
Great Northern railway and also to
the north shore of Leech lake max
ing it very convenient to handle by
either rail or water.

Smith and Smirk agreed as to the
disease, but disagreed as to the

was employed. Smirk insisted that
there was no lack of harmony be-

no better fast. The president urged
congress to reduce taxation on
Cuban imports because, among other
good reasons, Cuba was in financial
distress. Congressional insurgents
admitted the distress, but prescrib-

remedy. So nothing was done for

There are several directions in
which great good is looked for as a
result of the promise Of the ap-
preaching grain harvest OF the
United States. The government
report issued on the 10th of this
month showed that tho condition Of
corn on August / justified the ex:
pectation was only "a per cent. This
years acreage is larger-94, $40, 900,
against 81, 349, 92s in 1901,-and if
the harvest comes up the promise
of the August report it will a mount
to 1851, 400, 600 bushels-a round
billion of bushels more than the
short crop of last year. There's
many a slip twixt cup and lip, and
there are contingencies between the
August statement and the getting
of the crops into is the bins. But
allowing for all possible mischance,
it would seem that there is now no
room for reasonable doubt that the
corn crop Of the current year will
be one of the largest ever gathered.
This will be great thing for the
railways, and will exert an influence
in the stock market. It will provide
a plenteous supply of the best food
for hogs and cattle, thus tending to
increase the meat supply and bring
down the butchers wills of jewellers
in the cities. It will ensure the con-
tinuance of liberal incomes for the
farmers, and, by maintaining the
purchasing power of the agricultural
community, will tend to prolong the
existing prosperity in all branches
of manufacturing and distributing
trade.

Of last years bumper crop was not

that the acreage is only a little over

The Importance of the pig in the

hog products of all kinds are bring

quent high prices for steaks and
other cuts, have caused an increased

result. It is repored from Frankfort
on the Main that the president of
the butchers union has issued q
public statement in which he
declares that if the imperial authori-
ties do not accede to the demand
for the free entry pf foreign hogs
many communitiesEin Germany will
find their chief flesh food beyond
their reach. These applicants for
free work may be mistaken as to
the prices at which. they can get
foreign pork, but as Germany never
produces enough meat former home
consumption removal Of the pork
duties would undoubtedly afford a
measure Of relief. II -
II pork is now too high in price
for German consumers, it will
probably go away beyond their

visions are commendable, but it's
operation will interfere somewhat
