as follows

On Jan. /, 1890, we had only one
bank, the Breckenridge, with depos-
its of $751;, 1924. 80 Now we have
eight. with deposits amounting to
$54S, 7S4, A, showing an increase of
over 300 per cent This is certainly
very credtable showing and one that
we all should be proud of. 1t shows
that we are not retrograding but are
pushing forward with the balance Of
the country. In fact, Breckenridge is
one of the wealthiest counties in the
state, according to population. The
amount of money to her credit per
capita on deposit alone is 1867. 30,
and when you include the capital,
surplus, and money in the stockings
of the people it will amount TO as
much more. Surely, when we take a
retrospect of the pa st. we ought to
have no kick coming, for we are grow
ing richer every year instead of poor
er. We have not only got more banks
and more money but we have more and
better cattle, hogs, horses, mules.
Our farms are in a better state of
cultivation, better houses and barns,
better schools and, in fact, we have
everything that goes to make life
worth the living

There is an old saying like this:
"Judge man not by his clothes, but
by his face" The saying holds good
on some occasions, but when a man
applys it 800 days in the year he finds
himself a loser in the end. So it is
with cheap stationery. Cheap clothes
and cheap stationery have about the
same deadening effect on a mans
business. Before you got your good
little WHY you put on your best buds
and everything else you had good
when you called on her-simply be-
cause you were after the chest" and
of course used the best in your pos
session and power to get the chest"
1t is the same way with business, if
you want the best you must 60 after
it with the best-the best stationery.
Like we turn out, for instance. If
you don't know about the work we
turn out, write us and we will gladly
inform you. Thanks to you for
reading this-but if you will abide
by its meaning it will be mutually
profitable.

S:O7 P. NJ, APRIL 10Th.

The polls have just closed.
The result is in extreme doubt
so far as our next representa-
tive is concerned. 1t hasbeen a
battle royal between two of
Twins best citizens. AS we
have stated before, there was but
one issue, and that was the
saloons. Mr.. Paulk is under
obligations to them for the
strength he developed in the
campaign whether he is elect
ed or not. 1t is an obligation
that he cannot ignore. If he is
elected it is a victory for the
saloons, and he cannot afford to
introduce or advocate or vote for
any legislation inimical to their
interest.
On the other baud Mr.. Wilcox
is in the hands of the prohibit
tionsts. He cannot ignore their
wishes, and as he laid down in
