COLORADO HAS MOST
CASH IN Her BANKS
The Report of Comptroller of the
Currency Says This State Leads
L. $. in Regard to Financial
Conditions.

The enviable position occupied by
the national banks of Colorado as
compared with similar institutions
in other sections of the country. as
pointed out in the New Year statis-
tical supplement of The News and
The Times, is shown even more con-
clusively today by a report issued
yesterday by J. B. Lazear, for twenty
years national bank examiner but
now connected with the Central Ma
tional bank, Colorado still leads the
entire union in the amount of re-
serve cash on hand in the vaults of
her banks for emergency needs.
Following Is statement by La
zear in regard to Colorado's financial
record
1T is quite comforting to our Col
orado bankers and no doubt to their
depositors to know that the abstracts
of the three last reports of condi-
ton of national banks. as furnished
by the office of the comptroller of
currency, Washington, places the
state of Colorado at the top, as hav-
ing at the dates as noted below the
highest percentage of available cash
resources of all the other states and
territories of the United States.
These dates, it will be observed. are
before and during and after the
October, 1907, panic.
"On recent visit to the western
slope where fruit orchards are SELL
ing from $500 to $4,000 per acre,
and in northern Colorado, where a
loss of 81 per head for lambs was
anticipated, profit of $15O per
head appears now to be assured: the
banks are gaining in deposits and it
looks quite likely that Colorado will
remain in the strong position as
noted in the above figures"

WHAT GOV. JOHNSON
HAS DONE IN PAST.

Here is a Democratic governor in
a state sternly Republican. He is
, confronted by a Legislature that in
to him. All Observation-Disclosures
politics is Overwhelmingly hostile to
him. All the rest of the state ad-
ministration is Republican. He is
alone. Yet through this hostile leg
islation and with these hostile col
leagues he contrives to pass more
radical laws than exist in any other
state. except the newfledged Okla
homa. How does he achieve these
things? Charles Edward Russell
asks this question in April Every
body's.
LAS an example we may take the
2-cent fare bill. That was Governor
Johnson's personal property. that
idea. The Minnesota Editorial as
sociation invited him to its annual
meeting, expecting him, l think, to
make the usual address of flubdub
and platitude. Instead he exploded
the 2-cent bomb and urged that an
end be put to the giving .of free
passes. Then he talked the same
doctrine to commercial travellers
association. The Legislature met,
and in his message (Which was col
lection of round shoD he asked for
law putting his ideas into force. Then
he had such law drawn up, intro
duced and finally passed
He asked for law like the
Mueller law of Illinois, permitting
municipal ownership of public util-
titles. He got it. He asked for a
permanent tax commission. He got
it.
HE asked for rationa! revision
of the law taxing mortgages He got
it.
He desired to strike at the cord
age trust by so amending the exist
ing law that the product of the state
twine plant in the state penitentiary
might be sold anywhere instead of
only in Minnesota. He got the
amendment
He took up the matter of insur-
ance, in which he had always been
greatly Interested, for he was the or
iginator and chairman of the con-
ference of state governors at Chicago
in 1905, from which came the MEM
orable recommendations of the COM
mittee of fifteen He desired to
have the chief features of those
recommendations enacted in Mime
sofa So the legislature enacted
them.
He secured the establishment of
free state labor employment bu-
reau; fought into good behavior a
powerful insurance company that
was going on badly and (best of all
his endeavors) he succeeded in
abolishing in Minnesota that feudal
monstrosity, the fellow-servant act,
by which injured workingmen were
prevented from securing damages"

prosecutor promised him immunity
from punishment If he would impli-
cate the men higher up. 1t is said
he placed the responsibility on his
superiors.
AS a result, another reporter, w.
X. Heustis. of the Examiner, was ar
rested and taken to San Diego. Hay
den Talbot. San Diego correspondent
got warming and started for
Mexico. He chartered a pilot boat,
and was two and three-quarter miles
from land and just preparing to
board the ship Culgoa for Magdalena
when he was overhauled. He was
taken to San Diego Jail in the Black
Maria.
He was arraigned with Beard and
Heustis and held in $4,000 bail for
a preliminary hearing today. He ad-
mits that he was trying to leave the
country but denies that he had prom
ised the District Attorney to appear
in court today. Talbot had to climb
down fire escape to reach his pilot
boat unobserved, but the District At
torney got the news quickly and pro-
cured a faster steamer.
Talbot insists that his pilot boat
was outside the three-mile limit
when overhauled, and that he was
arrested when on the high seas. He
will sue for damages for false inn
prisonment. When reproached for

. THE POTATO CAMPAIGN. :. :
Observation-Disclosures.

The fact that the lecturers who
participated in the excursion through
the western slope counties and the
san Luis valley, for the purpose of
awakening interest in potato grow
ing. addressed more than 5000 peo-
pie in the aggregate shows both the
Importance fthe work and the in
terest felt in the subject discussed.
Professor Cottrell of the Agricul-
tural College has declared it to be
practicable for the farmers of the
western slope to send to market
$4,000 car loads of potatoes every
year in place of about 1000 car
loads now sent. He bases this as
sertion upon his knowledge of soil
and climatic conditions and the
abundance of water available for ir-
rigation.
The great results achieved by po-
tato growers in the vicinity of Gree
ley demonstrate the benefits which
would arise from a great develop
ment of that industry on the other
side of the mountains equal to Pro-
fessor Cottrell's estimate.
To attain the greatest success and
the largest profits, farming in Colo
RADIO must be intensive in character,
and it Is this kind of cultivation
which is called for in the production
of potatoes. 1t produces relatively
large results in proportion to the
area cultivated, and thus it Is espe
cially adapted to farming under ir-
rigation.
Not all the available farming land
on the western slope will be devoted
to potato growing. Other crops pro-
duce similar results. and they will
divide honors with the potato. But
the fact that Colorado's contribu-
ton to the supply of potatoes can
be increased by an addition of more
than $4,000 car loads is a matter
worth considering.-Denver Repub-
lican.
