Besn hands Has the condition which
existed in 1857, or ever In 1898. been
improved, or has 1t changed for the
worse
By 1901 the number of national
banks had Increased again 10 ten.
With capital and surplus amounting to
81. $50, 900. and deposits in the sum OF
ss.l45.000 or nearly double the amour
held in 1897, when Thornton's term

Of national banks has increased TO
twenty one. or fifteen more than
Thornton left In the Territory. with
capital aud surplus OF 81 .s64,000 and
deposits Of over $4,000 0 Thus. it
will be e that under republican

The Territorial records show a sim

there were seven such banks, having
a capital and surplus of $24o, 900.
while In 1904 the number OF banks
had increased to thirteen: the de-

Combining the figures Of national
and territorial banks shows that be-

operation increased from thirteen to
thirty-four: capital and surplus inves-
ted from $4,000 to 50, 23l, 900 and
deposits reached a grand total Of al.

BEST SECURITY.

From my early experience on a farm
and a thorough knowledge of farming
lands, gained by practical experience,
I early concluded that they were not
only the best security in the world for
loan of money but that they were the
basis of all security and have no hes
itancy in saying that think you will
agree with me that all security is bas-
ed on our agricultural lands,
/ need not pursue this further, as to
do SO is expensive and further, I only
impose upon your intelligence. by so
doing and have now said enough that
think no apology is necessary to you
for offering you first mortgage on an
Iowa or Missouri farm as an invest
ment, for | feel that you must agree
with me that loan of money secured
by first mortgage on good agricultu-
raj lands, when honestly placed, is the
safest, surest and best security on
earth
have some good propositions to Of
fer and would be pleased to have you
call or write and tell me what you

CIRCUS PROGRESS.
A Number of Novel Improvements to
be Seen This Season In the Bar :
mum &. Bailey Show,

In this age Of progress nothing need
surprise anyone. Improvement is GER
tainly the order of the hour. 1t is
looked for in every branch of SCIENCE
and commerce, but it is not expected
so much In the way Of entertainment.
Adjuncts to entertainment, however,
show the same general tendency to
betterment. In that most popular form
of entertainment, the circus, one Con-
Germ has always led the way and IT
is continuing to do so. Reference is
made to the Barnum &. Bailey Greatest
Show ON Earth. 1t is needless to re-
count the many and substantial rea-
sons for its unvarying prominence,
they are 80 varied and SO we'll known.
This great concern is this season pay
ing extraordinary attention to the COM
fort Of it's patrons. Among the items
in this direction is the generous pro-
vision of comfortable foot-rest for
every patron in all parts of the amphi-
theatre. This one provision creates
the necessity for twice as much room
for seating arrangements as has here
tofore been necessary, and other ne
cessities require so much more room
that the size of the great pavilion has
been just doubled. This enormous in
crease in the size of the tent was made
necessary because the placing OF a
foot-rest before every seat demands
more space, more paraphernalia, and
consequently larger canvas to cover.
Another conspicuous Improvement
will be found inside the menagerie tent,
which by the way, has also been great
ly enlarged. In this big canvas, $50
feet long, stage or elevated platform
runs down the center nearly the en-
tire length of the interior and upon
this structure is placed a wonderful
collection Of freaks, prodigies and cur
ious performers, all of whom give ex-
hibitions of various kinds. Cages OF
wild beasts are arranged in the form
| of an ellipse surrounding the platform
and at one end of the tent are three
herds of elephants, and at the other
herd of giraffes. two droves OF cam.
els and other leash animals.
The main entrance, or marquee, as 1t
is called, is very pretentious affair
with eight bright nickel-plated guide,
ways through which visitors enter the
menagerie tent on their way to the
big ton or tent where the regular per
formances take place. Altogether pa
irons of the circus will discover many
improvements of different kinds both
in and around the tents, and a great
number of them in the character anc
arrangements of the acts and genera
performances, which, 1t is safe to say
are to be found with no other amuse
ment institution. All will be here or
nearly 100 railroad cars on Saturday
September 3, corner Plum and Ash
streets.
