Banks Overlooking With Money.
Never have the banks of the Northwest
held so much money as was reported at
the close Of business on November lG.
when the comptroller of the currency
called Tor the last statement OF the year.
In almost every instance increased de-
pOsits over the statement of September
| were reported. And the money is not
all in for 1909 crops, showing that the
pinched conditions of 1907 have been
overcome. Another encouraging feature
ls the increased loans reported This
item is particularly notable, because the
banks in the Middle West and Eastern
banking centers have been reducing their
loans in response to local conditions.

as the term is applied, by 20 majority
The registration was the largest in the
history OF the city-7O3-and the fact
that 629 votes we're cast, or within IA of
the total number registered, shows that
deep interest was taken and nearly full

The vets and the drys, as the two
sides are most frequently called, have
carried on an active canvass throughout
the county, the vets cOnfining their
energies more particularly to the city
units, speakers being sent out to help
along the work. The net result shows
that Whitman county, outside OF the
incorporated towns, went dry by a heavy
vote. OF the incorporated towns eight

The four wet towns are C0lfax, Palouse,

NORTHWEST APPLE
IS KING Of FRUITS
For High Grade No Section Can
Produce Any Better.

Seattle, Dee. | The Northwest apple
is still king Of them all His regal claims
were vindicated again at the Second
National Apple Show recently held in
Spokane. Howard Elliot, head of the
Northern Pacific Railway, who was
president Of the apple show, says it
proved that for high grade fruit no sec
tion OF the country can produce anything
superior to the apple of the Northwest.
In bis opinion Washington, Oregon
Idaho and Montana are the real apple
states of the country today, having
wrested the title formerly held by New
York, Missouri and Iowa.
Overwhelmed With Generosity.
Editor Cloud surely made a tenstrike
when he located in Lynden, Wash, for
at recent meeting of the local CONNER
cial club that organization voluntarily
voted the Lynden Tribune 500 in recog-
milton of it's service in boosting for Lyn-
den. Such acts are exceedingly rare, for
IAOSU uOlu tudJ buelT pdpeT HAS
nothing else to do but boost and deserve
no particular mark of credit for it's good
work. In acknowledging the courtesy
Editor Cloud says it is the first time he
ever heard of town admitting that a
newspaper was doing more than it was
paid for. The spirit in which the gift
was made pleased him most of all and
with such loyal bunch of business men
and farmers back of him Editor Cloud
has vowed to give Lynden the best there
is in him. Other localities might well
profit from this notable example.
