Democracy's Chances.

1t is a great mistake to assume that
the republican party is of necessity in
trenched in power for a long period to
come. The voters who elected demo-
cratic governors in Minnesota and Mas

democratic congressman two yearS
hence, or a democratic president four
Years hence, if conditions should arise to
convince them of the desirability of
changing the party balance in the house,
or the political character of the next ad-
ministration. This enhanced mobility
in the voting mass Ought to yield a new
zest to politics. 1t helps to break down
the tyranny of mere machines and
bosses. 1t opens wider the field in which

Good Roads Agitation.

The subject of good roads is just
now receiving a deal Of attention at
the hands of the people Of Missis-

roads are still worked in the old
way, an effort is being made to in
tcr2st the supervisors in the con-
tract system. Many more roads

than was the east last year.

Mississippi State News
Condition of State Banks.

~ 49, S&''
State Auditor 7. NJ. Henry has
issued an interesting recapitulation
of the State banks of Mississippi,
showing their condition at the close
of business on the 31st Of December,
1904, as compared with the showing
made at the close of the previous
year, December 81, 1903.
The number of banks submitting
statements for the current report
was 217, as compared with 167
banks reporting December 81, 1908,
an increase of fifty new banks for
the year, which is perhaps the best
showing made by any State in the
South with the exception of Texas.
1t is certainly the best showing of
any Southern State, proportlOnate
to population and assessed wealth
The number of banks reporting two
years previously OF December 81,
1903, was $40, being an increase of
sixtv-six banks for the biennial
period.
The summary shows that the 217
banks have resources Of $50,677,-
$685., an increase of $S,411, 576.52
for the annual period. The loans
and discounts are $29,425,473.S4,
an increase Of $r,116,S54.99 for tie
annual period. Overdrafts secured
and demand loans amount to S1n
214.911.,2, a decrease of $1,644,-
539.0S. for the annual period.
Stocks. bonds and warrants amount
to $~1,149.001.66 an increase OF
sos, 644.54. Sight exchange is
6,132,765.54, a decrease of ST.
166.359.45 for the year. The to-
tai cash on hand is $3,262,765.54,
a decrease Of $27S,72O.36. The to-
tai net increase of resources is ST.
249,642.23,
Under the head of liabilities, cap
ital stock of the 217 banks at the
end of the year is placed at $S,431,-
1886, an increase of 81 ,432,924.6S
for the year. Surplus is placed at
$1,311,133.86, an increase of $323,-
1916. Undivided profits are 49,,
16S.35O.91. an increase of $685.
41S.22 for the annual period. In
diyidual deposits subject to check
aggregated $3O,941,664.54, a de-
crease of $1,145.31S.28, which is
the most favorable feature Of the
report, indicating that so much
money is not allowed to remain idle
in the banks as heretofore, but Is
being invested in business concerns
and various industries. Time GER
~tificates of deposit are placed at
$2,0S6.294.S2, an increase of $780,
1862. Bills payable amount to
S3,865,454.S1, an increase of 49,,
3SO.358.2O. Amount due other
banks is 1919, 1923, a decrease OF
$19,18S.'S.
The showing is regarded as in
every way cminently satisfactory.
and reveals a very healthy financial
condition throughout the State.
