ADVERTISING SUGGESTED. A
real estate and rental agency made
suggestion yesterday that it might pay
certain householders to heed. The
available furnished rooms for rent,
listed with agents, are becoming very
scarce and there is now but small
choice. The season is yet early but
tourists and winter visitors who apply
at the regular agencies very frequently
cannot md what they are looking fo~.
Still there are a great many furnished
rocms to rent in the city. as indicated
by the cards in the windows of houses
along the residence streets Most of
these places are advertised only by the
cards mentioned, which the tourist sell
dom sees unless in desperation he
starts out to canvass the city as Dow.e
did New York. The suggestion is that
those who have furnished rooms to
rent. advertise them. Put a notice in
the popular want colum of the Repub
lican or list the rooms with an agent
or for that matter do both. Ut would
insure the renting of the rooms much
sooner than otherwise and it would on
ly take g, trifie OF the first months rent
to pay for the expense. The agent was
not talking particularly for his own
business. but the idea is a good one for
everybody. Its greatest advantage is
not what the agent or the advertiser
would get out of it but the more impor-
tant thing that the householder would
the sooner get a tenant and the new
conner would sooner find comfortable
quarters and decide that after all
Phoenix is the right kind CT place to
live in.

MASTER THORNTON.
Newly Appointed Omcer VIII Com
mcnce work as Soon as Weather
Will Permit.

George r. Thornton, the newly ap.
pointed roadmaster of Morrow county,
appointed at the last session Of the
county court, is making preparations to
attend to the duties of his new field of
work, which will commence on Thurs
day, January Is, as designated by the
county court.
Mr. Thornton, under the direction of
the court will have general supervision
of all road work in Morrow county, and
will cooperate with the road supervisors s
in conducting a systematic method OF
road improvement.
To GAZETTE reporter, Mr.. Thornton
gave out the following:
81 expect to have all necessary ar
rangements completed as soon as the
weather will permit. | intend to engage
about eight horses, and a crew of men,
with all necessary tools. We will take
tent ard cooking outfit that the work
may be prosecuted without delay.
'The work will probably be COM
menced on what is known as the Henry
Gay road leading from Heppner to Eight
Mile.
II favor working in the lower or
northern portion of the county at this
time OF year.
Why do you favor working in this
portion OF the county first asked the
reporter.
zone reason for this" said Mr.. Thorn
ton, "is that it is impossible to do good
work on the mountain roads owing to
their condition at this time OF year.
The lower portion OF the county dries
up much quicker than the upper portion
OF the county, and after the month of
July it is hard to DO anything with the
loose soil.

| Special to the Herald
Laredo, Tex, Oct. 1S.-Judging
from the numerous articles pub

SAFETY IN NATIONAL BANKS.


(From the Kansas City Journal
Since the adoption of the Nation
al banking law in 1863, the National
banks of the country have lost to
their depositors $45,000,000 in
round figures. That seems a stu
pendous sum. It is stupendous
sum. But it is almost nothing when
compared to the money handled or
to the money lost by trusting to
others than bankers A year ago the
comptroller of the treasury showed
that if tax of oneseventeenth of l
per cent had been levied on the
average deposits of national banks
since 1868 it would have created a
sum more than sufficient to pay
every depoSitor of every failed
national bank in full Here are
figures which bring the safety of
banks home to lis in COM
prehensible manner. Only one
seventeenth of ! per cent of all the
money intrusted to national banks
has been lost during the past forty
wears:
