4 DAMNABLE FALSEHOOD,

"We are informed that another diabol- ical attempt to burn the new school building at Green Forest was frustrated by the man who lives in it for the pur- pose of protection. A pile of shavings saturated with coal oil and man ready to apply match were discovered at the foct of the stairway. The scoundrel proved too fleet for the watchman who chased him away in time to save the building. This fire bug has almost ruined Green Forest, but we hope he will soon be run 10 the earth and when he is caught that he may receive eum- mary justice.'
 The people of Green Forest were righteously indignant when last weeks issue of the Carroll Progress containing the above damnable tissue of falsehoods calculated to do an irreparable injury to our town, made it's appearance here.
 An investigation was at once started to determine the origin of the report and Mr. w. A. Butt, president of the school board, nallad m II a editor of the PrOp- ress and asked Linn where he had secured such information. The editor stated that it had been re- ported to him by I. N. Hoback, who lives out north of town.
 Mir. Hoback was here Saturday morning and he was shown the item and was asked by a member

BANKS TO BE
 CONSOLIDATED
Bank of Graen Forest and Ear. mers and Merchants Bank
 Will Soon BecOm One.

The. Banko Green Forest and the Farmers and Merchants Bank will be consolidated. This was the decision reached at the reg ular annual meeting of the stock holders of the Bank of Green Forest, which was in session Sat- urday and Monday nights, when they accepted proposition to this effect from the other bank.
 The Farmers and Merchants Bank will wind up its affairs as rapidly as possible, looking to the consolidation, which may not become formally effective before the first of August.
 ! The capital stock of $20,000 of the Bank of Green Forest will not be increased in order to con- sumate this deal, the matter of stock for the new parties becom. ing interested being arranged by some of the heavy stockholders.
 c. D. Wall, cashier of the Farmers and Merchants Bank, was elected cashier of the Bank of Green Forest, vice J. B. Rhodes, whose time expires Aug ust 1. Beyond this there were no changes made in the officials or directors of the Bank except to add two or three more to the directory.
 There was nothing in the busi- ness of the banks that would ne- cessitate their consolidation further than the feeling among nearly all concerned that such a move would be the part of good business judgment. One bank is amptly able to care for all the business of the town and com- munity.
 The Farmers and Merchants Bank was established little less than a year ago and has proven to be safe and conservative in- stitution. While it has enjoyed good share of business the Bank of Green Forest has also made great strides forward. During this time it has erected one of the finest bank buildings in this part of the state, and it's resources has almost doubled, the capital stock having been in- creased from S12,5O0 to S20,000 paid up.
 Green Forest is not a poorer town by having only one bank, for there never has been a time since it's establishment that the Bank of Green Forest has not af- forded our people every advant- age consistent with safe banking and there is not the slightest doubt in anybody's mind that it will not continue to do so.
 Green Forest can truthfully boast of one of the strongest, incest and best banks in the state. It has every element to make it such.
 Not only are the stockholders of this bank among the strongest men financially in the county, but the stock is we'll distributed, nearly every line of business be- ing represented among it's stock holders, including a number of solid farmers, all of which adGs both moral and financial strength.

William Knowles. who cultivates

play Of horticultural products as any
in Manitoba. The whole Of his hold

Though heavy storms have more than
once occurred within a few miles. The
potatoes are wonderful crop, and he
expects to raise 1900 bushels from
his patch Of AZ acres. A half dozen
of tubers selected yesterday average
more than pound each. Adjoining
the potatoes may be seen a marvellous
collection OF tomatoes. There are 600
plants, all growing under an enor-
nous weight Of fruit. One single
stock picked yesterday contained
eighteen tomatoes and weighed fouI
pounds. This extraordinary example
Of marvellous growth together with
some OF the potatoes we're sent TO th'

The proprietor was the first II

How German Emperor Keeps in Touch
with Worli'c Anairs.

The German emperor's interest in
everything that goes on in the world
IS well known, but few are aware Of
the trouble ne takes to keep Ia touch
with current affairs. According to a
Munich newspaper, the kaiser reads
at least three papers every day, chang
ing the list several times a week IA
order to become fully acquainted with
the ideas Of all political parties in the
state But this by no means exhausts
his appetite for information. Every
day the ministry Of foreign affairs, as
veil as that Of the interior, has to pro-
vide newspaper cuttings, properly
named and dated, and pasted on slips
ready for the emperor's perusal,
These be carefully reads, making mar
ginal notes as he goes along, and they
are then scrupulously classified and
put aside ready for immediate refer
ence. Often, too, the emperor asks
for cuttings relating to the particular
technical subjects in which for th'
time he is specially interested.

Is not because there is any mysterious
