Computations made in the ONCE Of the
Comptroller Of the Currency were issued
| by the Treasury Department last week
showing the relative standing OF national
banks measured by their accumulation of
surplus, dividends paid, and cash reserve.
For purposes Of comparison. the banks
| were divided into six classes-banks with
less than $4,000 capital. banks with from
$4,000 to 100000 capital: from 10000 to
s25O,oOo; from $4,000 to 100000: from
s, 100000 to 5000, 900. and banks with over
8, 100000 capital. This places 81 per cent
Of all the banks and 9 per cent Of all
the capital in the three smaller classes.
Z per cent Of the banks and ID per cent
of the capital in banks Of over $4,000
and less than $1.ooo0oo capital. and less
than per cent Of the banks and nearly
IS per cent Of the capital In banks Of
over q. 100000 capital
It appears from the statistics that
banks with capital Of 100000 and less
than 100000 paid the highest rate Of
dividends-about u per oent-end that
this class of banks holds the largest pro-
portion Of surplus-over g per cent-iA-
creased to 106 per cent by including un-
divided profits. The cash held By banks
In this class averages about = IL per
cent Of the individual deposits.
Large Cash Reserve.
The banks with capital OF 6oD.ooo and
over held 7411 per cent Of surplus, or 100
Der cent including undivided profits; the
dividends paid averaged not quite "a
per cent. This class of banks held the
largest percentage Of cash reserve. ur
- teal -
deposits. For the purpose Of these COM
pilations the reserve was calculated on
individual deposits, and by reason Of
this fact IL somewhat greater than the
per cent held against Individual deposits
and bank balances combined.
Banks of capital over $1S0.ooo and under
q, 100000 had about s7h per cent Of SUR
plus to capital This class OF banlIs paid
their shareholders last year IN average

Prospectus for a New
Weekly Newspaper
A Non Sectarian, Religious, Patriotic
Publication, of rs pages to be
edited by j. A. Scarboro and
others.
l. 1t will be devoted to Religion
and Political Liberty, Civic Right
eousness, and all moral and social re.
forms.
2. 1t will expose and oppose Roman
ism and all forms of Ecclesiastical
Hierarchies, Priest-craft, Traditions
and Oppression.
3. It Will promote unity and coop
Grafton among Christian people along
practical lines, in defense of their
liberties, the promotion of their mu-
tual interests, and seek to establish
Truth, Justice, Morality and the COM
mon good. -.
f. 1t is we'll known that partisan,
denominations press Is con-
trolled by the managers aid masters
of UNCONVENTIONAL affairs, so that dis
senters to the views of such masters
are denied a hearing in their papers.
We propose to publish a paper in
which the masses may be heard-an
open forum, in which both sides may
be heard, evidence and argument pre-
scented fairly and impartially SO the
people may know the truth and de-
eide impartially.
We believe in free speech and press,
which allows free press in eight
Southern States, Ala, Ca, Fla, Miss,
Tenn, N. c., S. G. and Va.
We will try to supply the need, and
we believe there are enough friends
of religious liberty in the territory
named above, to guarantee the sue
cess of such publication.
While Christian people differ about
some matters Of doctrine and Organi-
zation, there are many things in
which they can unite their efforts for
the public good, and such a paper
will supply medium of communi-
cation for the promotion Of such CO.
operative effort.
We want at least 10000 condition
al advance subscriptions. Send no
money now. Just your name and
post office and a card saying you want
the paper and will pay for a years
subscription on receipt of the first
copy.
We offer a cash prize of $1,000 and
a years subscription for the most
appropriate name for the paper. Our
choice is:
THE CHRISTIAN LIBERATOR.
The place of publication proposed
is Thomson, Ca, from the splendid
plant of The Jeffersonian Publishing
Co.
We desire to begin publication by
October list.
If we succeed in it's establishment,
J. A. Scarboro proposes to give up
pastoral work, edit this publication
which will absorb his Magazine,
Plain Truth, travel, lecture, preach,
meet opposition and throw all his
power into the work.
If you want the paper established,
fill out the blank below, at once, and
mail to J. A. Scarboro, Magnolia, Ark.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1911-08-17

The surest plan is generally the
best. Plant a variety Of late crops
and reduce the likelihood of failure.
1t is now late and many chances
must be taken with the seasons dur
ing the remainder of the year. Plant
forage crops literally. u
