NaieA We are all justly promo.
The prosperity and progress OF the
state depends largely upon its bankers.
They a often make OF unmake a
business enterprise. With limited
capital to work on our bankers have
made a good record. and are doing
well for the business interests Of the
state. Business is increasing SO rapid
that we have not capital enough to

capital. Bankers all over the state

AGAINST USURY.
since the organization of society
there have been money lenders and
which means q great deal
more Bankers have always been III
~despensible in the transaction of the
business. 1t is recorded far

Exodus, chapter XXI, verse 25:
III thou lend money to any of my
people with thee that is poor thou
shalt not be to him as a creditor,
shall We lay upon him usury.' .
Here nsury is condemned, as now
and while there is less usury now than
ever before, yet laws against usury
are violated as in olden times. The
reason for its violation is that a man
ordinarily wants all The can get for
what ne owns, or for its use. The
price Of money is generally regulated
supply and demand. and If the de-
for money is greater, the lender
wants the most he can get for its use.
