with a majority of the stock represen-
ted. The statement showing the con-
dition of the affairs of the bank was
very gratifying, the institution having
had one of the most prosperous years
in it's history. At a meeting of the
directors the previous week, a semi-an-
nual dividend of five per cent was de-
clared and the surplus increased to
$50, 900. At the directors meeting
Tuesday the same officers and directors
were elected with the addition of the
election of w. T.. Laney as assistant
cashier. The success of the bank has
been due to the wise and conservative
ament which has characterized
it since it opened its doors for business.
On Tuesday afternoon the stockhold-
ers of the Peoples Bank & Trust Co.
had their annual meeting in the dlrec-
tors room of the bank and after going
over the statement declared a dividend
of 10 per cent and the remainder of the
profits for the year passed to the sur
plus. The stockholders were much
pleased with the business done and the
splendid showing made. The success of
the new bank has been one that rarely
comes to a new financial institution, the
deposits having reached $500, 900 the
| last of the This showing is GER
tainly one to be proud of and the Off

Say This Country Cannot Con-

Fast AS Made.
COTTON MILLS LACK HANDS
AFTER RAISE IN WAGES
Railways Put Big Rate of Increase
on the Shipments of All
Kinds of Grain.

Kansas City, Oct. S.-A joint con-
vention of the American Live Stock
association, the Cattle Raisers' asso-
citation and the Corn Belt Meat Pro-
ducers' association was held here to-
day and plans were discussed for Sc
curing a better foreign market for
American live stock products. The
call for the convention says in part:
1T is of great importance to the
live stock industry chat a more ex-
tended foreign market be secured in
order to dispose of our increasing
surplus of meat products and to in
sure good prices for live stock at
home. The United States raises more
live stock than the home people can
consume. On the other hand, there is
a marked scarcity of meat in contin-
entail countries. We should be able
to supply this shortage abroad. I'm
der fair and reasonable international
trade relations we believe that a
larger proportion of surplus meat
products could be sold to those ma
tions that need them, thus benefiting
both ourselves and European consum-
ers."

MILLS CAN NOT GET
OPERATIVES ENOUGH

Providence, r. H. Oct. S.-Cotton
mill agents in Rhode Island complain
of the scarcity of help in some de-
partments, and assert that in this re-
spect the increase of wages granted
early last summer did not have the
beneficial result hoped for. The in
crease did not draw back a sufficient
number of those who left the mills
when wages were lower. In some
mills, at the present time, more looms
have been stopped than ever before in
the history of the state for want of
operatives. This scarcity has brought
about a keen competition among mill
officials in Offering inducements TO
families to become permanent help.
