PASTOR HICKS NOT GUILTY.
Charges Against Minister Not Sus
tanned in Church Trial.

The Rev. David Hicks. pastor OF the
Methodist church IN Corunna, Mich,
and formerly in charge OF the church
in Geston. Ont, against whom charges
of dishonesty were made, was declared
innocent In a church trial, In Essex
Thursday. The minor charge that lie
had left his congregation In an irregu'
lar way was admitted, and on that he
was suspended until the next meeting
of the congregation in June.
Pastor Hicks was supported at the
trial by the Rev. A. c. Leonard. OF thu
Flint district, and ]. II. West. OF
Corunna. The Rev. w. II. Millson. OF
Kingsville, also assisted in his dc
tense. Five ministers acted as jurors
and the Rev. A. K. Birke was judge.
Since Hicks left Gesto a new-found
friend assisted nm in clearing up his
Indebtedness of about $1,000 and mona
of the creditors who had circulated
stories about him appeared to substan
tate any of the charges. Hicks de-
cared the charge that he had misap
propriated 500 of the missionary
funds was untrue. and he paid over
that amount under protest to clear nis
rame. He will probably remain III

Sunday.

Great and glorious tidings for those
who have new hats and clothes to dis
play on Easter Sunday are those
which the weather bureau brings.
Despite the fact that Easter comes
unusually early his year, 1t will be
an unusually fair and pleasant festi-
val, to judge from present indications.
That comfort of being well clothed.
which is only second to the soothing
help OF religion, may be enjoyed by
all those who nave the raiment to
display.
From present indications, the tenn
psrature will fall slightly Friday
hight and Saturday will be somewhat
cooler than Thursday. but not bad
day at that. Sunday should come with
rising temperatures and fair sky.
although there may be some fieecy
clouds to mar the blue OF the heavens.
The only disqlieting factor In the
whole situation is a slight weather
disturbance now operating in the
northwest This may just possibly
reach us, but it is far more likely that
1t will be sidetracked and go gallivant-
ing away 10 the north, while We par
ticipate In the annual Easter parade.

Finances of the West as Viewed by Bankers

chat the little furry over the money
outlook which originated in New York
has had good influence. They declare
western bankers have been extending
credits with great caution.
Stoddard Jess, president of the Los
Angeles clearing house and vice presi-
dent of the First National bank of Los
Angeles, was among the prominent
bankers interrogated. Among other
things, Mr.. Jess said:
while the demand for money is al
ways greater in Los Angeles and
Southern California during the fall
months, as in nearly every other Sec
ton of the United States, 1t is not oc-
casioned by the need for money to
move crops and to pay taxes.
"Oranges, lemons, walnuts, celery
and other fresh vegetables constitute
our chief agricultural products, and
they are marketed in the winter and
spring months. Hay and grain grown
in Southern California is harvested in
June and July. and is all consumed at
home. The growing of beets for sugar
is an extensive industry, but beets are
converted into money during July,
August and September.
'I do not anticipate as heavy de-
mand for money in Los Angeles during
the coming fall as usual owing to the
fact that everybody seems to look for
a tight money market in the fall and
to be governing themselves accordingly.

that are anticipated frequently do not
materialize. The banks OF Los Angeles
Los Angeles herald., 1910-10-02

In the name of the banking institu-
tions of Southern California and of the
entire population of the great and
growing metropolis of this magic
corner of the United States, The Herald
bids q most cordial welcome to the
thousands of delegates, women and
visitors from all parts OF the country
to the annual convention of the Ameri-
can Banking association. Through the
untiring efforts of the various Los An
geles committees every possible prepar-
alton has been made for the reception
and entertainment of our guests, and
that all will be made more than well

verse Is assured
And for many days Los Angeles will
be distinguished in financial history as
the richest city in the world, for with
the hundreds of bank presidents and
capitalists in our midst immense
wealth, greater than that Of dozen
Croesus, will be represented.
CITY OF THE ANGELS
The city of Los Angeles-known far
and wide as a habitation of wondrous
growth and beauty-is today a stirring
metropolis of positive commercial and
industrial activity, a city that has out
stripped many other large cities OF the
country in development, in the accom-
in the completion of enterprises that
would stagger communities of less
nerve and faith. 1t is the pride and
boast of those who do things in this
marvellous city that they always make
good" A striking example of this truth
is the records of the local captains of
industry, who have gridironed the
county of Los Angeles with interurban
electric railways extending from the
mountains to the sea; the individual
property owners and the syndicates
that have caused to be erected the
towering hotel and office buildings
which occupy the principal corners of
our business thoroughfares-bu buildings
of steel and concrete construction,
thoroughly f1reproof and modern in
every particular from the basement to
the roof. And then there are the hun
dreds of industrial enterprises that
have been established in and near the
city which have contributed in no
small degree to the substantial wealth
and solid growth of the community
and it's varied interests.
There aer those still residing in Los
Angeles who remember when there
we're but 1000 inhabitants in the place.

ment, in 1850, gave us a population Of

CORDIAL GREETINGS AND WELCOME
BY Los ANGELES TO THE BANKERS
Local Committees Giving the Glad Hand to Bank Presidents and
Capitalists from All Sections of the United States.
Los Angeles Now Richest City in the World

| 1910. Ten years later the figures
Jumped to 4400, due to migrationS TO
the coast caused by the discoveries or
gold. Trade was limited to dealings In
hides, wool and tallow. Owing to the
remoteness of os Angeles and the lack
of transportation facilities, growth was
very slow and the population of the
city was but $500 in 1870; but during
the next ten years the growth was
more rapid, the population in 1880 being
nearly 11,000. Old residents relate in
teresting stories of the early expansion
Of the old Spanish town from the Plaza
southwark along Main, Spring, Fort
and other avenues, with scattering
domiciles in the vicinity of the foot
hills, of the unpaved streets, the drlv-
ing floods that rushed down from the
hills and of the big ranches, rich in
fruits and flowers, that are now
adorned by business blocks of the sky
scraper type and by thousands of beau
tiful residences and bungalows.
The arrival of Americans" by the
hundreds In the '80s and the completion
of the first transcontinental railroad
by way of Yuma, connecting with other
lines at Ell Paso, Tex, and later the
arrival of the first trains over another
transcontinental line, marked the be-
ginning of rapid growth of Los An
geles in population and commercial inn
portance The gold fever and the de-
lightful climate attracted the people OF
the east and the north to the Pacific
coast, homes sprang up as If by magic
and business houses multiplied In every
direction. Soon the old Plaza became
less attractive and commerce shifted
southwark, until today the business
center of the city Is generally placed
at the corner of Fifth and Spring
streets, while few claim that the ac-
tual center is still farther south.
There was q memorable period in the
'80s, when speculation. ran riot and
scared beyond all reason. Conservative
operators moved cautiously and when
the bubble burst sensible plans were
formed for the building of a city that
has become the wonder and the envy
of the world. And with the sane action
of the representative citizens OF the
community and the frang showing of
the real possibilities of the city and
region round about for the creation of
a home and industrial section of the
first Importance, people fiocked to the
coast every season by tens of thou
sands, and now the city of Los An
geles by the last official count shows
a population of 325. 600, with fair pros
pect of reaching 100000 in few years.

have had and still have sufficient
money to meet all demands for neces-
sary and legitimate uses. Some months
ago there appeared to be a concerted
action on the part of the banks to re-
strict loans and discourage the use of
money for speculative and building
purposes. The action has had a good
effect and the present indications are
that the banks will be in a condition
to meet all local requirements.
'"The underlying conditions in Los
Angeles and Southern California may
be said to be entirely sound, and all the
difficulties experienced may be attrib-
uted to too great prosperity. During
the winter and early spring our people
were unusually optimistic and evil
denced a desire to use more money to
finance their activities than the supply
would allow. But little money has been
tied up in farm mortgage loans and
practically none In Canadian lands,
from this section, but building has
been unusually active and the develop
ment of oil properties has locked up
gance among all classes of people
seems to prevail-undoubtedly as re-
suit of the prosperity we have been
experiencing during the last year or
two. Probably no city in the country
has a larger number of automobiles in
service in proportion to its population
than has Los Angeles, and 1t is re-
grettable to say that many indulge In
maintaining an automobile that can Ill
afford to do So"

Recently the Chicago Tribune made
a canvass Of the principal bankers of
the west on the business situation.
Queries were sent to the chief cities in
California, Oregon, Washington, Colo
RADIO, Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, North
and South Dakota, Nebraska and Mis-
souri,. Among the questions propounded
to the bankers were these:
1. What will be the probable further
cash needs of the banks in your sec
ton for crop moving purposes? Chi
cago banks find that many of their
country correspondents have drawn
down their balances and are asking for
loans. Do you think there will be a
much further demand Of this character
or do you anticipate some repayments? :?
g. Do you find it advisable to re-
strict loans, and II so on what class Of
applications?
8. What is your estimate of the
amount of money tied up in farm mort
gage loans and what is your estimate
of the amount of cash which, during
the last year, has been invested in
Canadian lands by western farmers?
T. To what extent do you consider
true the announcements that farmers
generally have purchased automobiles,
borrowing money to pay for them?
s. How do you regard Secretary
MacVeagh's suggestion that the ma
tional banks of the country organize
currency associations?

from western bankers. Many suggested
