WADESRORO,S NEW BANK.

W~adesboro feels good over the
prospects of a new bank in addition
to the two strong financial institutions
already doing business here. The
Of the new bank is the Southern
Savings Bank, and it will begin bust
ness early in 1908, in the room recent
~ vacated by the First National Bank
The president Of the new bank will
be our mach beloved tOwnsman, Mr..
John I. Patrick and that fine young
business man, Mr.. ". ". Morton
now with the Parsons Drug Co. will be
cashier.
1t would be quite d:GicuIJ 20 find two
officers in whom the people have more
explicit confidence to conduct the as
sured business OF this new enterprise.

REV. PLATO IT. DURHAM

There has been a m atioat Ior
some DAYS about the reefs OF Char
lotte that Rev. Plato 3" Durham, now
pastor of Trinity CHI III, and n of
the best equipped OF ne younger men
in the ministry Of the church, will
not take work next year, but will
take a position on tine staff of the
Charlotte Observer. This is so far only
a rumor, but SO rife as to be common
talk. An effort to verify this report
was fruitless, yet that there is such
a thing on foot was not denied though
details, il any. are lacking. This will
cause a ripple of interest all over the
state. as MIR. Durham is well known as
an able and interesting writer and pull

county who has not a little nest

banks have all the money they need

The new railroad from Raleigh to
Washington, in this state, is almost
as straight a line as the old Carolina
Central from Old Hundred to MeareS'
Bluff. and that is about as straight as
a string can be stretched. The new
road makes it possible to reach many
points in eastern North CarOlin with
out going by way Of Norfolk. Similarly
the South & Western makes it pos
sible TO reach some points in western
North Carolina without having to go
around by way of Tennessee. The
railroads, it will be seen, therefore,
are making good progress on both east
eTn and western ends of North Caro-
lina.-Charlotte Chronicle.

THE NEW GOLD COIN.
A Charlotte Banker Receives p Spe-
:imen Of the New Gold Eagle.

Mr.. A. T. Summey, assistant cashier
Of the Commercial National bank.
received from Washington recently on4
of the new Saint GaCdens' 10-dolla;
geld pieces which are notable by rea-
son Of the fact that they do not bear
the time-honored motto, "In God We
Trust" on their face.
The coin, while a handsome one.
is not considered by many as we'll de-
signed as the old one. On the face
is an Indians head which covers the
entire side and on the reverse is the
figure OF an eagle, erect with wings
half open and clutchirg with its tai
ems a bunch Of arrows. The words,
Il Pluribus Unum' are located to
one side. The date in large letters IS
situated just beneath the Indians head.
The edge Of the coin is encircIed with
stars.
The absence of the motto In God
We Trust" is conspiccUs by reason Of
its absence. The design Of the coin IS
the work OF the late Saint Gaudens, the
noted sculptor who died several
months ago.-CharIOtte Observer.

THE COTTON BALE SECURITY
The Farmer Vttn H.a- Cotton Not
Worried -Abo Ti-A> Money aud
Shrinking Se.a.riiias>.

The squeezing Of water out Of or
poration securities has not effected the
people OF this section Of the country.
Money is tied UP here, not in watered
securities, but cotton bags. and those
bags are lot classed as ''perishabIe".
They can be carried over TO the tire
when the hsme banks Z secure from
their New York banks plenty OF cur
rency. The cotton bales can be kept
on hand. Tney are on hand and the
holders OF the coveted bales feel strong
and secure. They have the best OF
collateral, the best of investments. AMI
they are willing TO wait for the turn OF
the tide
Everybody in the cotton belt knows
the crop is o a large one. 1t is not
in the 1900, 000-bale class. 1t NAV not
exceed 10000, 900 bales. but whatever
its size may prove to be all know that
q naked world will need every bale OF
it. and holders are in no hurry TO sell
on a sasging market.
The lack OF currency may be incOn-
y~enic1t on the farms. but it j. better
10 suffer Inconvenience than 10 pocket
downright losses when the producer
parts with the bales he has made. 1t
is the plain duty Of all farmers who
have cotton TO sell to wait the offer
of satisfactory prices. There will 0 o
be plenty Of currency i'll the banks in
the cotton belt. 1t is flowing out o.
New York daily. but monetary ease is
not alone sufficient. A satisfactory
price must go along with it before cot
ton will be turned loose in great vol
ume. The foreign %spinners, including
those of New England, will soon see
the situation as it really exists. 1t is
the old familiar deadlock between sell
er and buyer, and the currency trou5-

Tie Man Generally E1incIic>.

In the suicide compacts which are
now and then brought to light the
woman nearly always keeps her part
of the bargain, but the man usually
weakens and either does not attempt
his life at all or does it sc half-heart-

it is a source of general qualification
to learn that one man of this stamp
on his recovery has been sent to the
penitentiary in Missouri for a long
