this town would be useless unless, by
having two, the cost of obtaining loans
would be cheapened in the way of in
terest or fees, and unless money can be
procured cheaper, competition will be
of no benefit. The people are not in
terested in dividing the patronage OF
banks, what they want is for banks to
sell their money as cheaply as possible.
We believe money ought to be obtained
at less rate of interest, 1t is so obtain
ed at other places, and it ought to be
here. The prevailing rate here is s per
cent discount, then when fees are added.
the borrower is doing well if he gets
his money alta cost of ten per cent, mon
ey is borrowed in some places at six
per cent, and at the North Us low as
four, why is this so? Because money is
plentiful and competition is active. If
we had as active competition IN the
money market here as we have in the
mercantile, the owners Of money would
be as satisfied with smaller profits rs
the merchants are compelled TO be.
Therefore we say there is absolutely
no need here for another bank, unless
those who are contemplating such a
movement propose to reduce interest
and fees, and it would be almost i'm
possible to raise another bank in this
town without having parties connected
with it who are situated similar to those
in the existing bank.
