sOuTH'S CHANGED CONDITION,

SUUIn j uVNDt!IVNS
No Longer Entirely Dependent on the North
For iAoney.
The New York Journal of
Commerce Of recent issue con-
tanned the following:
The New York corres~
pondents Of Southern banks,
according to statements made
yesterday, during the past
two weeks have received
many requests from Mason
and Dixon's line for the pur~
chase Of commercial paper in
appreciable quantities. One
large bank here within a
week has received more than
a dozen such requests, some
Of them aggregating as much
as 5000, 900.
"The bankers here point
out that this is an unusual
condition in the South. In
other years at this season,
when the cotton crop is mov~
ing, the banks of this section
have been hard put to it to
find enough money to supply
the pressing needs of their
customers. The high price
of cotton prevailing and the
prosperity in the iron and
steel industry are the princi~
pal reasons for the strong
financial situation in the
South, according to findings
of those who have investi~
gated"
This denotes a remarkable
changei in financial conditions
at the South. In fact, it
amounts to a reversal Of the
attitude Of this section to-
ward the money center.
Heretofore the South has all
ways been a borrower from
the North in the crop season.
1t has always been considers
ed a matter Of course that.
money should be sent from
Northern financial headquar~
tiers into the cotton belt each
fall to be used in gathering
and marketing the cotton
crop. Without this aid the
crop could not be moved.
The buyers became debtors
to the banks of New York
and other centers of the east,
the cotton crop being securi~
ty for the loan made to per-
nit it's marketing. In fact,
the crop was sold and paid
for before it was moved, the
Eastern bankers, Of course,
making a good percentage on
the loans, whether the cotton
buyers made a profit on their
transactions or came out with
a loss.
Such a thing as the South
sending money to the North
at this season was never heard
of, because the South did not
have the money to send ex>
cept what was forced there,
as the marketing Of the crop
proceeded, to pay debts con-
tracted for the crop move~
ment. Now the South is in
the market with cash for i'll
vestment in Eastern securi>
ties. 1t is emerging from the
position, so long inevitable,
as a heavy debtor to the East
and even assuming that of
creditor to some casual ex~
tent. True, the amounts in
vested in Eastern paper are
yet small, as such invest
ments are made, but it is re-
markable that there should
be any at all just now, and it
is as gratifying as it is re-
narkable, because incontro~
vertible evidence of real pros

Lerity which comes from be-
ing ahead of the game

Shall We Have hacadam Roads?

The old idea that to have
an improved road you must
necessarily have macadam is
now thoroughly out-of-date.
DR.. J. H. Pratt who has done
such a great work in planning
the proposed system Of inn
proved roads for our Pied>
mont and mountain counties
says that about the greatest
difficulty encountered has
been the idea that to get i'm
proved roads they must be
macadam, costing $4,000 to
S6, 900 a mile. On the contra>
ry he has told them that ma
cadam is not the thing for
them, that any road graded,
drained, and surfaced is a
good road, and even with
their steep grades, splendid
gravel or sand-clay roads can
be made at from SIS to
50, 500 a mile.
For the average county
5000, 900 is certainly better
spent for 100 Or 200 miles of
first-class sand.clay or gravel
road than for fifty miles of
macadam.- IN. c.

Auto Driver Is Fined $40.

Neigh, Neb., June 22.-Special to
The News: The case of the state vs..
John Catron, a liveryman of Tilden,
was heard before Justice John M. Nc
Allister yesterday morning. This is
the first automobile case under the
new law held in Antelope county.
L. R. Funk, minor son, testified that
while coming home from Tilden he
met the defendant in the road driving
an auto, and he signaled as the law
provides for him to stop. The defen-
dant testified that Funk signaled for
him to go around on the left side of
the road, which he did, stopping his
car when about a rod and half past
the driver.
AS a result of the meeting Mr..
Funk's team ran away, throwing the
driver out. The court held that the
throwing up of the hand under the ex.
listing law meant in the language OF
the statute that the auto driver should
Immediately bring his car to a stop
and imposed fine of $40 and costs
The case was Immediately appealed to
the district court. Attorney N. D.
Jackson was for the defendant.

Start Fight On Guaranty Law.

Lincoln, June 22.-John L. Webster
of Omaha, and former United States
Senator w. V. Allen of Madison, at
torneys for the banking interests of
Nebraska, opposed to the state bank
deposit guaranty law, yesterday filed a
suit in the federal court here for a
restraining order against the state
banking board and Samuel Patterson,
it's secretary.
The petition prays that the state
board be forbidden to levy an assess
ment to guarantee bank deposits. 1t
asks that Patterson be prevented
from taking his seat.
Fifty-two banks, state and national,
have Joined in the pleading. 1t is al
legged that the new act Is confiscatory,
taking property without due process
of law and requiring the property of
one bank to pay the liabilities Of an
other; that it's assessments provision
is so indefinite as to permit an I'M
limited number of assessments being
made against the banks and that the
provision for immediate payment of
deposits is illogical and impossible of
fulfillment.
Alleged defects in the record in the
laws passage are also cited.
A further contention is raised that
the law violates the contracts which
the state has entered into with private
banks by requiring them to become
incorporated after chartering them for
definite period without such require
ments.
The section of the act which au'
thorizes part of the proceeds in the
guarantee tax to be used for securing
convictions of criminals is attacked
as an unlawful use of the funds.
