According to the forecast of the

Almost without exception the mills

many of the mills Use water from

In many places it has not rained

business man should regard his
banker in relation TO his business
as he regards his physician in rela
ton to his home.
1t is entirely different in France
There the peasant in the field and
the small shopkeeper consult the
banker before making an investment
of any sort. If they have money to
spare and desire to buy 100 bond
the French banker tells what bond
to buy.
This closeness between the French
business man ana MS banker, and
even the French working man and
the banker, have resulted in France
being in the strongest financial po-
sition of any civilized nation.
And the American Bankers Asso-
citation would do a great work if
they should discuss ways and means
of bringing their institutions into
closer touch with the people who
do business with them.
There was a happy illustration of
this close relation in Memphis sew.
eral months ago.
The Memphis bankers opposed
certain legislation that was being
favored in Nashville. They met the
Shelby county delegation at din
ner. This delegation was composed
OF lawyers. business men and work
ing men. 1t was the consensus of
opinion of this delegation that what
was good for the bankers of Memphis
was good for the business men of
Memphis and for the working men
of Memphis.
one person said
7 do not know the merits of this
measure but have confidence in
the integrity of the bankers who OPP
pose it. and |. therefore, am going to
vote against it.
However, the Memphis bankers are
propably close to the community be
cause they have not permitted de-
positors to lose cent within the
last forty years.
Good banking then inspires con
fidence in the banner, and, at the
same time places the banker in
position to be of great service to a

HEARD BY A FOUNDER
Written for The BuIletin)

The president should be supplied
with an expert to KEEP close TAB on
bills as they progress, to detect the
lokers' in them. He would need to
be a wise and vigilant man; but he
might be able to enable the president
to head off many schemes designed
to benefit a few at the expense of all
of the people. Governors of states
also need similar aids.
Washington would like every con
gress to have a special session. The
last session was a great money maker
for the capital city.
II is popularity understood that VIII

Taylor, whose terms were cut short.
in the White House, by death were
victims of luxurious eating with
which they were not previously famil-
lar Accurate history shows that
President Taylor died of an illness
caused by eating too freely of cher
ries and buttermilk of which he was
very fond.
Able military men are very apt to
blunder as political candidates and as
statesmen. Gen Scott, as Wing can
didate for president, made a brief
tour to address the people At Buff
10. N. Y, his audience was largely
composed of Irish and Germans He
thought the opportunity good for deal,
ing ont some effective f1attery to
these nationalities. so he said with
an oratorical flourish. that he loved
the rich Irish brogue and the sweet
German dialect. The laugh of rid
icule met him at once, and he did not
hear the last of it until the close Of
the campaign. 1t was General Han
cock, who sealed his fate as Demo
cratic presidential candidate, by de-
claring the tariff local instead Of
national question, Gen, Taylor as
president, in his inaugural address,
declared the country at peace with
all the world and the rest of man
kind and this raised laugh among
the nations which did not subside un.

BANKING LAWS.

The American Bankers are holding
an important session in Chicago, and
they viii probably formulate another
scheme for currency reform.
Three years ago the American
Bankers Association prepared bill
but it had no standing in the senate
of the United States. Mr.. Aldrich
the manager Of the United States
senatc, he'd to the opinion that he
knew more about finance than all
TIKI American bankers combined.
The panic, came on, because of
Americas faulty currency system.
Mr.. Aldrich then offered make
SHIFT plan, His plan has never been
tried. ard will not be until we have
another panic.
In the meantime. Mr.. Aldrich and
several other senators and other
public men, few of them bankers.
are out on currency committee
This committee will report meas
rres, and If they s.iit Mr., Aldricb,
trey will have standing in the sen
ate, anil = tNcr 10 not they will be
pigeonholed
There IS peculiar thing connected
with banking that obtains with no
other business. Currency laws are
made by men who would not know
how to find the interest on ninety
day note. They do not know bill
of exchange from a sight draft, ana
yet such men make the laws CON
trolling the American financial eys-
ten, and they will give no heed to
those bankers who understand the
laws governing currency from the
foundation up.
It is unfortunate that our dema-
gogues have turned many Americans
away from their bankers. The good
