That there is friendly feeling gen
orally for the banks in operation here is
an evidence that the public appreciates
the. convenience such Institutions afford
in the dispatch of business. And the in.
terest manifest in the movements to es-

the public wants all the facilities of that
sort that can be obtained, The city is
growing rapidly and therew i'll be all
the business in the future THAT the banks

to institutions of this sort run on tho
plan they are in Clarksburg ever results
in good to the people.
