FINANCTERs' BANK sTATEMENr


 New York, Jan. 2.-The FinancIer will A wide discrepancy was noted in the statement of the associated banks in the City of New York on Saturday taking the average system. and the report based on actual conditions as a basis. In the report of averages the banks showed a decrease of $S,624.600 in loans and an increase of about Y3.7oO, 900 in cash and decrease of s12s4- 800 in deposits. The surplus reserve es. timated on these figures increased sS033- eIb. If however, calculation Is made on the statement of actual conditions which really represents the true standing of the banks at. the date named loans Increased t2s.Ss5. 200; deposits s37,Sss.4 400. and cash $5.s26, 800.
 The increased reserve required on the greater volume of deposits ws approximate ly $9,500000 and as the cash gain was less than se,oo0.oo0 the surplus reserve was re- the week at tlt,7e4.376. The very large increases noted above were due primarily 10 preparations for January dividend payments and 1t is quite likely that the statement a week hence will show equally large changes. The banks during the week gained in their operations wit hthe sub-treasury and else where more than $5.000. 900.
 BANK STATEMENT New York, Jan. 2.-The statement of clearing house banks for the week shows (five days) that the banks hold s20. 800 more than the requirements of the 26 per cent. reserve rule. This is an increase of s4,os3,975 in the proportionate cash reserve as compared, with last week. The statement follows:

raj election to be held next Oc-
tober, and unless the harsh pro-
visions Of the new law are kept
in mind by the people, thousands
of good men will be disfranchised.
The Importance of the foregoing
suggestion cannot be overestimated. II
is stressed by consideration alone Of
the class of voters to which we have
here called attention.
Many voters who have been doing
a thing a certain way for many
years cannot, as whole and without
effort, be brought all at once TO real
ize that it is now necessary for then
to DC it entirely another way. The
difficulty is not in understanding tbs
requirements of the law, which are
simple enough, but in that principle
Of human nature which we have
pointed out"

GENUINE COSMOPOLITAN.

The cosmopolitan character Of the
people of this country was shown in
the recent parade incident to the
Hudson Fulton celebration in New
York city.
Two men walked on foot at the
head Of the parade. One was the
mayor of New York, the son of tie
late General Mcclellan. The other
was Hermann Rid Ter, born in Ger
many. one of the best Americans that
ever drew breath.
Following these two gentlemen
came the Sons of Saint Patrick, an
Organization of Irish that has exist
ed in this country since the Revo-
luton.
Following these was the Ancient
Order of Hibernians, more Irish.
Then came a battalion of Huns. A
platoon of Lithuanians, and a great
force of Germans were in one part
of the procession. These were fol-
lowed by Syrians. There were French,
Dutch, Spaniards and Italians in the
line of march.
Over and above all these national
tiles was the American flag.
hese people are good Americans
in the making.
The Italians in this country i'm
prove with every generation.
Everybody, of course, knows the
character of the American Trishman.

four states are dominated by the

The amalgamation of white races is

Just at this time the press of the
state is devoting considerable space
to the subject of registration in Geor-

operative this year. The law is a
very far5reaching one, affecting u
vast percentage of the people of the
state. However, it is not drastic and
Is based ON coed, sound sense.
The Atlanta Constitution discussing
the matter very wisely says;
Without regard to the abstract
principle OF its propriety. it is we'll
known fact that many citizens who
possess the highest right to the exer-
else of the ballot overlook the duty
OF registration until they are con-
fronted by live, active political
campaign, either municipal, county or
state,
This is fact with which every
one is familiar; it is grounded in
human nature.
theoretically, it may not be right
that any citizen should need the spur
Of contest to urge him to the per-
Torrance of civic duty; practically,
nevertheless, many do.

impressed with the necessity for the

perform the duty Of the citizen in the
elections Of 1910.

WOMAN ASSAULTED
ON BOYER AVENUE

Report was made to the police de-
partment Saturday evening that an
assault upon a young woman was at
tempted on Boyer avenue early Satur-
day evening, when an unknown man
jumped from behind a tree near the
the Odd Fellows home and seized the
woman by the neck, but becoming
frightened by her screams threw her
bodily into the street and made his
getaway before the police could be
notified.
His efforts were only frustrated by
the young woman's size and strength,
which enabled her to loosen his grip
on her throat, and to cry for assist
ance. In the scuffle, she dropped her
purse and several parcels, but the as
sailant was SO occupied in leaving the
scene that he overlooked these articles
and they We're later picked up by the
police. The police refuse to divulge the
young lady's name, but say she is a
in the upper end of the city. Profess
sor Bratton, of the college. to whose
home the woman fled for safety, denies
the report that she is a student of the
college, but will not give her name.
The grip of the mans fingers on the
girls throat have left heavy blue
marks, and she is a nervous wreck to-
day. She can give no description of
her assailant, as she did not see his
face, and the police are wholly at sea.
