La Crosse Chronicle. The min
lister who SO alrily remarked that
after reading the Chicago papers the
local papers weren't much by COM
parison, may comfort himself by
the reflection that's the way people
feel when they have heard the
Chicago preachers and then listen
to him. incidentally, don't knock
your own town and it's institutions.
The knocks come home to roost.

1t has been decided by the stock
subscribers to the new bank, that a
State Bank would better supply the
needs and demands Of the public
than another National Bank. This
change was agreed to by every
signer. The main reason for the
change was the fact that a National
Bank is not permitted to take real
estate loans and a state bank can.
A large number of the men con
nected with this bank are experts
on real estate loans, and it is likely
that an immense business will be
carried on in this particular line
The outlook is good for strong
bank in the near future. Reliable
men are backing this enterprise.
