tThe socialist voters in this state are
warned against the possible mistake
that may occur in voting for the candi-

BANKING RECORD
IT LEADS NORTHWEST IN GROSS
DEPOSIT GAINS.
Figures Compiled from the National
Banks of the Country Show Mime
apolis Well Toward the Fore, with a
General Condition Of Prosperity
Shown Thruout the Northwest.

Tremendous national banking growth
is shown in figures compiled by the
Financier, the leading financial journal
OF New York. Minneapolis stands we'll
up in the percentage table of gains
with the First National in the lead for
that city. In the eight years from the
time when only ffty-three national in
$5, 100000 gross deposits, the gain has
been such that sixteen Of the national
banks have more. deposits than the
largest bank in 1896.
With the First Nationals record,
Minneapolis stands forty second in the
list OF percentage gains, or 305.57 per
cent. The Northwestern Natiomal 2I3
list is headed by a gain of 1,0S1.47 per
cent for the First National Of Boston.
Were the banks which had gained in
other cities by consolidation eliminated,
Minneapolis would forge well to the
top Of the column. The First National
of Boston, the National Bank Of Com
merce Of New York, the National City
of Boston and the First National Of
New York, which rank the Minneap-
oils banks, are consolidated gamers,
some Of them having swallowed ten or
more institutions.
The National German American Of
st. Paul and the Merchants Natlonal
| and First National of that city show
gains Of 1882, 43.85 and 37.01 per

made the remarkable advance Of 328.22
per cent.
