 A, La Roche, the Superintendent, has had eight years experience in the manufacture of handles and picker sticks. He Is thirty years old, has \ wife and child, and lives on Church street. That he has ability and expe- rience as machinist is evident from the fact that he did all the work of putting up the machines and connect ing arrangements to start them into operation with the help of his work men.
 To us, 1t seems certain that this new and we'll organized industry h to he an important addition to the hlAnufactur- ing interests of this city, and h b grow to larRc dimensions. IL Is an enter. prisc, also, in which our citizens must take great. pride, from the fact that 1t Is one of Putnam's young men who originated. organized It and set 1t go- ing without any ostcntatious manifcs- tstion. What he has done, others of our young can do if trained tn special callings. And If they need capital or any assistance--to start them in same useful calling for which they have fitted themselves, 1t should hc cheer. fully granted rather than.to strangers who ask assistance in order to come here to carry on some manufacturing business. Those that come here volun- tarily, as those who have recently star. ted business here should be gladly well cemed. But no more hiring men to make business venture here.
 IL will be an incentive to young men to it themselves for some business that will be a benefit to the city, If they can feel assured they will be assisted and encouraged by their own towns. people who know them as to fitness.
 2 We trust, therefore, that what Mir. Child has done te benefit himself and Corporation, and also our city, will be an object lesson for our young men, from which they will mark out for themselves path to success in some useful calling, that will bring them prosperity and the esteem ef their home friends.

 Dr. Jones related a number of inte- resting anecdotes of life in the island, and spoke of the work Of building up the churches. The work has been di- yidod between the various denomina. tions, and is progressing well. but there is need of more money.

Bank Committee Will Visit Oklahoma.

A visit to the state of Oklahoma for
a thorough study of the new law for
the guarantee of bank deposits will be
made next week by the special commit
tee on banking of the Wisconsin legis-
'lature, consisting of Senators Walter
C.. Owen, Maiden Rock; H. G. Martin,
Darlington, and James A. Wright, Mer-
rill; and Assemblymen L. G.. Whittet,
Edgerton; c. A. Crowell, Almond; Platt
Whitman, Highland, and William Rea-
der, Amigo.
Oklahoma is the only state which has
in operation such a law as is contem-
plated for Wisconsin, hence the impor
lance the committee attaches to
thorough study of its workings. Kan
sas and Nebraska have enacted such
laws, but their operations are at pres
ent tied up by injunctions. Texas and
South Dakota have also adopted such
laws, but they have not yet gone into
operation. On invitation of the COM
mittee, Commissioner of Banking M.
C.. Bergh will accompany the commit
tee on its trip of study and investiga-
ton, and it is possible that there will
also be a delegation from the Wiscon-
sin Bankers association, as the COM
mittee has invited the association to
appoint delegation of three members
for that purpose. About the middle of
this week G.. w. Rhodes, secretary of
the committee, will go to Oklahoma
and will arrange with the merchants,
manufacturers, bankers, brewers and
other representatives of industries to
appear before the committee during
the week of the Oklahoma state fair,
which will be held at Oklahoma City
from Sept. 27 to Oct. l.
Interesting in connection with the
trip is the fact that Wisconsin society
in Oklahoma will observe Sept. 80 at
the state fair as Wisconsin day, and
the secretary of the society has sent a
special invitation to the Wisconsin COM
mittee and delegation to participate in
this celebration.
