nothing more than a barter. While
today, thanks to the bankers, we have
the finest banking system known to
the civilized world, and because Of
this system we are able to do much
more business and able to do it bet
ter.
Andrew Carnegie has said that he
regards business as means to an
end and the greatest end, service ID
q community. certainly believe
that this definition applies especially
to you as bankers. Though you may
be in business for the dollars you car
make ont Of 1t, yet we know that you
also have an end in view and that
this end is almost invariably service
to the community in which you live.
We know that you are the first to
subscribe to any fund to be used in
benefitting your community, your
town or your state and such service
as this has had much to do with the
phenomenal progress Of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory during the last
few years ad It is this spirit which
will make the new state Of Oklahoma
the brightest star in the flag, the
grandest state in the Union.
Friends, we are more than glad to
have you with Us, and we hope that
you will enjoy every minute Of your
time We know that we will be bene-
fitted BY your stay and we trust that
YOU viii receive a great deal Of bene-
fit from your meetings.
Do not take these fewfbroken words
as a criterion Of our welcome to you.
for after all it is not what we say,
but what We do that counts. We want
you to feel it in the handshake-we
want you to realize it in our homes
and We are sure that you will find a
right royal welcome to our city, the
city Of churches, Queen Of the Washi-
ia, which during your stay Is yours.

RUSSELL'S WELCOME ADDRESS

MI Chairman, members Of the Bank
ers Association Of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory and visiting
friends;
In behalf Of the Chickasha Com
mercial club and every citizen Of
Chickasha It is my honor 70 extend
to You most hearty and cordial vel
come to our city, and not only to our
city, but to our homes and 10 our
hearts.
It is indeed great pleasure to have
in our midst, even for few days,
such representative and distin-
guished and intelligent delegation,
and as ! look into your faces I might
add good looking.
AS I see you' assembled in this CON
vention am for The first time, able
to answer in satisfactory manner,
the question which has often been
asked Of me, "What has been the
cause Of the prosperity Of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory" Why have
these territories made more progress
IN few short years than any other
territory or state in the Union has
made In many, many years, even in
q century? To this question | would
now give the answer-to the bankers
to the men who have established A
sound financial basis for Oklahoma
and Indian Territory. We all know
that without sound financial basis
that no Individual could prosper. that
no corporation could expand, and
that no community Or state could have
made the phenominal progress that
Oklahoma and Indian Territory has
made, therefore. to you as bankers
must be given the credit.
The Jamestown exposition com.
memorates the founding Of the Vir-
ginia colony At jamestown 800 years

time tobacco was the standard of|

circumstances merchandising in fact

The church was beautifully decor

Ditch HEARING Now On.

A hearing on the Lake Lillian
Cosmos judicial ditch is now on at
Litchfield in a special term Of court
which opened last Wednesday under
Judge Powers. A large number of
farmers from along the route of the
proposed ditch have been in attend
ance There has developed some
opposition, not so much to the ditch
itself as to the division of assess
ments Of benefit. There are 80
property owners in Meeker county
and two in Kandiyohi who consider
that they are assessed more than
their share of benefits and have
gone to the expense of employing
surveyors to prove their claims.
Their attorney is Mr.. Freeman of
Olivia. Several other lawyers are
taking part in the proceedings,
among whom are Attorneys Geo. H.
Bitterness and Elias Rachie Of Will
mar.
A. j. Smithson of HaWick, one
Of the ditch viewers, passed thru
Willmar yesterday en- route for
Litchield to attend the hearing.
He stated that the commission has
tried to do its work honestly and
impartially. and that it was his
belief that when the present in
vestigation is over it will be found
that the opposition has had little
or no cause for complaint in the
way the benefits have been assessed
