Put Money in Bank.
(From The State.


There is disposition among some
persons unversed in business proceed
ure, and not familiar with present
conditions, to criticize Southern
bankers for not making freer ad-
vances to farmers on their cotton.
The fact that banks, from New York
to San Francisco and from Chicago
to New Orleans have had to issue
clearing house certificates is sutfi-
Client explanation why banks, neither
in the South nor elsewhere, have
been lending no money.
Conditions from this time forward
Will improve steadily, but the farm
ers themselves can help effectively.
There Is too much currency in stock
ing and pocket-books. The banks
need that money to lend individuals
two bales Of cotton and carries home
forty dollars to lock up is, in effect,
preventing the bank in his court
house town from making an advance
of $40 to some other farmer who has
cotton in the local warehouse. And
he is forcing the bank n his court
house town to press some other far
mer for payment of his note. That
pressure forces the debtor to sell
his cotton at sacrifice. If every
dollar was in the banks, where it Is
far safer than in stockings, cup
boards, or pocket-books, the banks
would be better able to extend ac-
commodation to all that wish ad-
vances on their cotton, and better
able to extend the time of payment to
borrowers whose cotton is their Sc

Schwab's Chickens.

Last Monday from early dawn
until late at night wagons were busy
hauling chickens for Schwab to the
|. {. depot to be shipped to Hern-
don Carter Co., who sent man here
to buy Mr.. Schwab's purchase. The
shipment was the largest ever made
from here and comprised 1900 fowls
weighing ten tons, and the cash
realized was about $3.50, which is
a nice sum to be realized from fowls
only. Schwab also handles eggs,
hides, wool, dried fruits and dozens
of other thinge which bring money
into the town.

Can Roosevelt Explain?

Mr.. +. II. Harriman's statement,
in the letter to Sidney Webster, that
the president sent for and personally
solicited him to raise 500. 900 for
the Republican campaign in New
York in 1904 is so startling that one
reads it almost as if in a dream.
If Mr.. Hartman is not mistaken
the president is convicted of hypoc-
risy such as few have heretofore
deemed him capable Of. That the
president while threatening war upon
the railroad monopolles should have
accepted aid for his own reelection
from one of the greatest of railroad
monopolists is revelation that no
one could believe if it came from any
other source than Mr.. Hartman HIM
self
1t is evident that Mr.. Hartman
on the eve of the election of 1904
did not believe in the sincerity Of
Mr.. Roosevelt's propaganda OF rail-
road regulation. If he felt that
there was danger of crusade of that
kind his subscription of $50, 900 to
fund which the president wanted and
his successful efforts to raise the re-
naming $3.50, 600 could have no
other purpose than to purchase i'm
munity. And he must have under
stood that a promise Of immunity
was implied in the presidents re-
quest for aid,
Mr.. Harriman's letter contrasts
strangely with the presidents indig-
nant denial on November 1, 1904, OF
Judge Alton B. Parker's charge Of
few days earlier "that the trusts
are furnishing the money with which
they hope to control the election. y
Judge Parker, then the Democratic
candidate for the presidency, did not
know that the trusts were supplying
this money at the personal solicita-
ton of his opponent or his party
managers. 1t is probable that the
presidents indignant denial OF the
charge led Judge Parker, as it LED
the country at large, to believe thai
the president was ignorant of the
transactions of Cortelyou and Bliss
with the trust magnates.
"Slanderous accusations, ''mon
strous accusations, " "unqualifedl!
aud atrociously false" were among
the words employed by Presiden
Roosevelt in repellipg Judge Parker
charges. The country believed him

CHURCH NOTES

Rev. Benjamin Andres will preach
ai Forest Grove school house next
Sunday afternoon at $3.50 CLOCK.
The communion of the Lords Sup.
per was observed at the Presbyterian
church last Sunday, and the sermon
of the pastor was appropriate to the
occasion. The text was Rom. 3. 6.
"For when were yet without strength,
Christ in due time died for the un-
cody. The thought Of the discourse
was. that the Lords Supper is a
strength for Christ's people against
sin. Sin makes man weak and the
grace of God makes man strong.
Through these rites of Christianity
we receive strength from God.
An opportunity was given to those
present who were not members OF
the church to unite themselves with
Gods people. Two came forward,
one by letter and one upon profession
of faith in Christ, and were received
into the fellowship of the church.
