BOISE BANK
CLOSES DOORS

AT meeting of the directors of
the Capital State bank Monday even
ing, it was decided that the bank
would not open for business Tuesday
morning. This decision was arrived
at after the affairs of the bank had
been thoroly gone over and the de-
termination was made only after the
directors deemed 1t practically neces-
ais of deposits lately.

years connected with the Boise City
National bank, for several days past
has been engaged in making a care
full and searching investigation into
the affairs of the bank and has pro-
nounced them in good shape. He eX-
presses his belief that the institution
is perfectly solid and that every de-
positor will receive payment in full
The securities of the bank are pro-
nounced good but, under the present
financial conditions, 1t has been found
impossible to realize speedily on
loans.
Owing to the severe mental strain
to which he has been subjected for
some weeks H. E. Neal, former cash
Ter of the bank, resigned his position
Saturday and the following day, Sun
day, left for Portland to recuperate.
1t was stated positively that his leav-

COMMERCIAL
CLUB Meeting

At a very largely attended meeting
of the Commercial Club last night
It was decided to establish monthly
market day for the City of Caldwell
The subject was brought up by Edi-
tor Burroughs, who has given the
matter considerable study and after
discussion of the matter in all Its
phases the Club unanimously voted
TO inaugurate a monthly market day.
A committee of fifteen was appoint
ed with full power to go ahead with
all arrangements. A date viii prob
ably be fixed so that he first of the
series will he held in about two
weeks.
The idea of day set apart each
month for this purpose is by no
meansa new one, altho 1t is somewhat
novel In the Northwest. In this sec
ton of the country there are at pres
ent, SO far as We know, but two
towns who have these days. These
are Pendleton. Oregon, and Waits
burg, Wash. The Pendleton people
held their first market day ON Jan.
IL, and the Washington town hold
their first next Saturday. Reports
from the affair held at Pendleton are
very encouraging, the day being sue
cessful in every respect
Altho primarily intended for the
sale of livestock of all kinds, it is
expected that ranchers and farmers
and people all over the count Y will
offer any thing and everything that
they may have to dispose of, such as
buggies, harness, produce, etc.
1t Is expected that the merchants
will offer special bargain sales on
that day, and that the day will be a
profitable one to both buyers and sell
lers, merchants and farmers. 1t will
undoubtedly be true that numbers
of people who ordinarily do their
marketing elsewhere will be attract
ed to Caldwell on the monthly mar
ket day.
Efforts will be made, and will in
all portability succeed, In securing
reduced rates on the Interurban and
on the o. s. l.. There Is no reason
why this event should not become one
looked forward to by all classes as a
monthly red letter day. a sort of
monthly miniature Canyon County
Fair.
There will probably be held TIVE
auctions during the day. one in the
morning and one In the afternoon,
with long enough interval between
them that the visitors will have a
chance to have dinner and take In
the stores.

Short Sightedness.

If advertising does not pay. there
are over sixty millions of dollars
thrown away in this country every
year. Everyone knows that much
money is not going to be scattered to
the wind Of nothing, therefore there
must be something in advertising.-

markablc thi'g about it is that all
Of this money is paid out year after
year by business men who are cau-

business and by men who make money.
The successful men in every line as
a rule are the most liberal users of
printers ink. They know that it pays
and they consider their advertising
