There has been good deal written
in disparagement of the knocker,
says an exchange, but not nearly as
much as that despicable individual
deserves. There is a wide difference
between the man who expresses dis
approval of any scheme which he be-
lieves to be dishonest or detrimental
to the town or district, and the indi-
vidual who disparages a new enter
prise because of his ignorance or mar
row predjudice. There are men who
can never see any merit in any enter
prise that has not been demonstrated.
They are always throwing c6ld water
on othes peoples ventures, and max
ing extravagant claims for the pro-
positions in which they are personally
interested. If the opinions and wishes
of such men had prevailed there
would have been little developement
Of natural resources in the West.
If you cannot honestly commend a
new enterprise, started in good faith,
at least be man enough to keep your
mouth shut and give those striving to
better their own condition and help
the community a chance .--Albuqur-

Not long ago w. S. Gilbert, the
English humorest, was so unfortunate
as to lose his umbrella while dining
at the well-known Carlton club in
London. In rather waggish mood
the librettist caused the following
notice of his loss to be posted in the
cloakroom The nobleman who took
the unGersigned's umbrella will con-
fer great favor on Mr.. Gilbert by
leaving it (the umbrella) with the
clerk of this club. When friend re-
monstrated with Mr.. Gilbert, saying
that he thought it was a gratuitous
atfront, and asked why MIR. Gilbert
should assume that a nobleman had
taken the umbrella, the witty Gilbert
explained 'Oh according to the
first article of the clubs rules it's
membership is composed of nobleman
and gentleman And, since the per-
son who took my umbrella is certainly
not a gentleman, it follows that he
must be Acknowledgement.

William E. Curtis says the new pope
of the Catholic church is Democrat
from the crown of his head to the
heels of his new white shoes. His
predecessor was an aristocrat to his
finger tips and both exemplified their
birth, their ancestry, their education
and their environments before and
after they were elevated to the
throne. Leo XIII was a patrician of
the highest type, whose family have
occupied the same residence and cul-
tivated the same ground for five CEN
turtles, and the same tenantry have
titled their fields and gathered their
harvests. Plus X was born peasant
and his family belong to the indus
trious, intelligent and independent
population of the villages that are
scattered through the northern noun
tains of the kingdom; hardy, cool
headed, practical, self reliant race.

receded somewhat closing with fractional net

House exceeding S1O0OOO0o00 and deposits
standing at 81 .O4S Cos. 800. as compared with the

unexpected. in view OF the great activity which
prevailed in the stock market during part Of the
week The increase in deposits was Sll,614Soa
