Other Banks in Line.

Chicago, Ill.-Reports from banks
all oyer the country, except the
extreme west, have adopted the clear
ing house certificate plan, and will fol-
low it until the money market settles
back where it belongs. Financiers of
high standing say this was necessary
and the proper thing to do to protect
the depositors as we'll as the banks
No one will lose by this action, unless
it be few spectators, which the
clearing houses refuse to stand be-
hind.

So long as the farmer goes round
with his mouth hung down as If he
were ready for the last great day to
come, so long will you hear OF the
"boys leaving the farm" There Is no
sense in the farmer always playing
the part of the poorest man on earth
II is his privilege to be all that there
is in a man, and it is his duty to
magnify his calling" The scared

One Governor Acts.

Oklahoma City, Okla.-The gov

proclamation establishing a legal holt
day from Oct. 2S to Nov. 2. This is
with a view of tiding over the strin-

venting run on the banks. The step
was brought about by the refusal OF
eastern banks to supply needed cur
rency to take care of local calls for
the movement of crops.

THE MIRACLE OF A SHEEP:

The following is an abstract from
an article written by the editor of
the Stock and Station Journal, Sydney,
Australia:
A man was teaching a class about
cattle and he said: Now, can any
boy tell me what cow isl" l don't
know, was the reply he expected, but
a small boy gave him the correct an.
swer. He said:
Please, sir, COW is an animal
with four legs, one on each corner"
That was good answer and the
boy had my sympathy. If any one
were to ask me, what is a sheep? do
you know what would say? My an
sWer would be; "a sheep Is a mi.
raCle." So it is. There isn't a more
marvellous animal in the world than a
sheep, and at all our pastoral and agrl-
cultural gatherings we ought to toast
the sheep. But we don't simply be.
cause nobody ever thinks Of the source
Of all our wealth. We count our wool
returns in millions of pounds sterling
and the mutton sales are enormous,
and the whole country profits by the
sheep, but who ever thinks Of it?
Hardly anybody except from the point
Of view Of pounds, shillings and pence.
Did ever tell you about the great
Florentine Giotto who made his mark
on the sands OF time? I don't think
ever did, for know heap Of things
that l haven't told you yet, although
I've been telling you stories for a
good many years.
One day, when Giotto was standing
in the streets Of Florence, telling
stories and laughing, a pig ran be-
tween his legs and upset him. He
got up, very angry, but when he saw
the pig rushing down the street he
laughed and cried: "Ah, you villain,
you'll And yet, look at the lot Of
money have made with your bristles,
and l never gave you even glass OF
wine"
Good old Giotto. Look at the money
some men have made out Of wool, but
have never thought about the miracle
Of sheep. That's our trouble. We
hardly ever think about anything. II
we did, we would find the kingdom Of
God on earth. AS it Is, we mostly
find the other kingdom.

Don't get excited; don't be misleu.
The present furry will cut no Ice with
the prosperity of this country. The
prices of things are not inflated; they
are simply about right. There are
few exceptions, and cotton is one OF
the exceptions. Cotton has had the
whole gambling world combined In
fight for low prices. The bear manip-
ulators have not hesitated to use any
and all possible means to ruin the
prices. They have finally played their
last card, and in the scramble have
lost out and have bankrupted many
of their friends. This is the begin
ming of the bear stampede. They have
sold cotton for future delivery at all
sorts of low prices and the day for
the delivery comes on apace. What
are they going to do about 1t? The
available cotton for delivery will be
bound to become exhausted soon. Then
that in the warehouses will be requisi-
toned, and if the holders stand for
the best price there is nothing under
the sun to prevent their getting that
price, so long as it is not prohibitory
one. Fifteen cents Is not prohibitory,
and it is right there the price should
stick, and there it will stick till the
time comes to make it higher still.

Have you given the hog pen the
attention it should have? All over the
South there is continual cry for more
hogs with which to supply the pack
cries and the local butchers. This
should not be so. Nowhere else can
hogs be so easily raised, and nowhere
else can they be SO easily prepared
for the market. They have proven
the best mortgage filters the West
has ever found, and they would prove
even more efficient in the South and
the Southwest. The demand can not
be at all supplied, and this Is diverSi'
flcation that is SO cheap that any one,
even the poorest tenant can engage
In it even If 1t be on small scale

said that the Legislature had alrea-
dy appropriated about 100000 more
than the revenue for the coming BIZ
ennial period would amount to, and
he thought that Governor Carter
would veto any such bill even II it
were passed by the two Houses.
After good deal of discussion u
motion was passed that the directors
of the Association take the matter
up with the Promotion Committee
and endeavor to get the use of the
money which would be appropriated
Ly the Legislature for the use OF the
committee.
The Association appeared to be
unanimous in the opinion that there
could be no greater promotion than
the establishment of new line of
steamships between this city and
San Pedro. Il was also ordered by
the board of directors that the legis-
lative committee take such action as
was deemed advisable to have the
Senate agree in conference with the
House appropriation of $4,000 for
promotion work. This item was
placed at $1,000 by the Senate.

General Manager Burnham, of the
