can overdrawn account shows
shiftlessness both on the part OF
the borrower and lender. There
is no logic in allowing such a
custom. Who would think of
asking private money lender
to keep an undetermined amount
subject to the order of a drawer,
if needed, paying interest only
on the sum that was used?
Personal SOLICITATIONS OF Ac-
COUNTS.
conservative and self-respect-
ing banks can never approve the
practice of personal solicitation
of accounts, or part OF an ac-
count. A divided account IS
worth less than half of its entire
ty. The bankers slogan should
be, Give all your business to
one bank
"When accounts come to a
bank as the result OF personal
solicitation, it frequently hap
pens that they bring with them
requests for accommodations
that have to be refused or loss

among bankers is taken advant

one banker against the other fo1
their own advantage, thus plac

banks losing customers through
the solicitations Of others.

THE SAlLFlSH.
HTakes Great Skill to Land Him With
Reel and Rod.


The small number of sailfsh an
nuauv taken in Atlantic waters is
partially explained by the uneer-
tainties and difficulties to be en-
countered in locating their pres
ence as we'll as the great skill, ex-
perience and endurance required IN
handling them with rod and reel.
Although infrequently seen near
the Florida keys, they seldom leave
the vicinity of the warm gulf
stream, whose waters approach
within five miles of Palm Beach.
One usually finds them on warm,
sunny days, swimming with their
great dorsal fins slightly out of wa
ter, and Immediately a school is
discovered all power must be used
to forge ahead of them, cross their
path a hundred yards in advance,
then stop and allow the boat to
drift slowly, when a lively fresh
bait should be cast.
While they often strike at cut
bait or a spoon in trolling, they are
seldom we'll hooked, owing to the
peculiar character of their jaws
As rule they bite very quietly anc
must be given thirty to forty fee'
of line before striking, as then
mouths are small, hard and bony
not unlike the tarpon in their in
ternal structure, and can rarely b.
captured unless the bait sis vel
swallowed.

Co-operative Trade.

The recent report of Aroostook Po-
mona grange disclosed the fact, says
the Maine Farmer, that another Dig
grange of that county, Caribou, is do
ing an encouraging stunt in the line
of cooperative trade. The reports
state that the store of the organization
did a sales business of over So6'ooo
during 1907 with trade stock OF but
slightly over $4,000. Houlton, the ban
ner grange for size in the world, does
a much heavier business, but Caribou
is a-con,iug, and there is no good rea-
son why scores more of Maine oranges
should not get in line.

TWELVE new LAWS
Chamberlain's Proclamation Duly
Issued June 23rd.

Twelve law and cOnStltutlolidl
amendments enacted by the peo-
ole at the election, June l, have
been in effect since Tuesday,
June %, when Governor Cham
berlain issued a proclamation
declaring them to be part OF
the law of the state.
Taking them in the order that
they were promulgated by the
secretary of state, it will be seen
that the time for holding the
general elections will now be the
first Monday in November in
stead of the first Monday in June
Consequently the next general
election will be held in Novem-
Der of 1910. By the reason Of
this change primary elections
for the nomination Of state and
county officers will be held in
September, the primary law fix
ing the time for holding the prl-
maries at the 45th day before
any general election.
The governors proclamation
thus makes both fish bills effec-
tive, so that Columbia River
fishing is strictly regulated on
both the upper and lower rivers.
Under the provisions of the
prisoners feeding bill drafted
and enacted by the legislature
primarily for the benefit OF Sher-
iff Stevens of Multnomah coun-
to, all sheriffs in Oregon are now
the sole custodians and guar
dams of the prisoners in their
iails. In Multnomah county al
so the sheriff is allowed 123 cents
a meal for the food furnished to
the prisoners.
Bv virtue of the same vote Of
the people the University of Ore
gon is safe in its appropriation
of $125, 900 for 1907 and of the
-same-amopnt for each year here
after.

BANKS AND BANKING

Part of an address by II. S.
Fletcher, President of the Bank
of Watsonville, before the Call
fornia Bankers Association, as
follows:
QUALIFICATIONS OF A BANKER.
"a banker should bea special
ist. Experience in our profes-
sion, as in every other, is the
best teacher, and the more we
have the greater its value to the
institution weare connected With.
"Politics and religion do not
mix well with banking. We
should respect the opinions OF.
others in religion, and we have
a perfect right to follow the die
tates of our own consciences In
the matter Of religion, but when
banker adds a show Of devotion
to his qualities as banker for
advantage to his business, it saw
ors too much of hypocrisy to be
satisfactory or respectable.
"In politics every citizen should
have an opinion and a decided
one, and a banker should always
be found on the side Of honesty
and honest administration; bu
remember that a good politician
is always a poor banker, just a.
sure as a good banker is alway'
a poor politician. People will
money are not looking for trus
:; tees for their funds from tn
ranks of politicians, for as elias
they have been known as "scaly
: since the time Of Elizabeth.
