PenrOse Finishes the Job

Johnston went back to his seat and Penrose, after a pause, moved about the hall whispering few words to few of his trusted followers. The thing leaked to the suspicious insurgents before the rlan could be pulled off, and newspaper
 readers are familiar with the contro- versy, charges and counter-charges that
 were made on the floor. But the plan leaked too late to be enumerated, and the democrats were successful in putting through the bill with their own amend ments.
 In doing this they violated no agree
 ment with anybody. As on the woolen bill they had come to an understanding with the insurgents that after the defeat of the democratic bill by straight party and factional votes LaFolette should move to reconsider and offer his suhsii- ute and the democrats would combine with the insurgents in it's passage. democratic bill failed. When few regu- lar republicans withheld their votes the democratic bill was passed and the dem
 ocrats, of course. could not then help to reconsider the bill.
 The regulars of their party had the sat
 isfaction of robbing the insurgents of the honor of passing their substitute bill. If the regulars can accomplish nothing they had rather see the democrats do some thing than for the insurgents 10 get an advantage.

In Railroad Traffic In and Out Of
Mineral Point.
INCREASE OF S144,751.15
During 1910 over the Business o1
the Previous Year.

the previous Year.
That Mineral Point has become a
city Of much commercial Importance is
demonstrated by the increased freight
and passenger traffic of the place.
The local passenger and freight bust
ness Of the c.. NJ. & st. Paul and the
Mineral Point & Northern railways at
this station during 1910 shows an in
crease of $144, ISL Is over that'of 1909.
The Democrat is unable to give the
total amount of railroad business done
here in a single year, but the increase
reported indicates that it is very large
and that there is surely something
doing in a business way in Mineral
Point.

NATIONAL BANKS OF

LOSS OF DEPOSITS
SITUATION Is UNPRECEDENTED
REPORT OF COMPTROLLER

SOUTHERN BANKS SHOW GAIN
About the Only One in List Which
Have Made Substantial Increase in
Amount Of Their Deposits During
Quarter Just Ended.

WASHINGTON, Feb. deposits
of individuals in the 1900 national
banks of the United States decreased
s191 $3.50, 48S between November 10 and
January Ia situation probably I'M
precedented in the reports made to
the Comptroller of the Currency.
OF that sum more than $15S, 900
was drawn from the thirty-nine nation
al banks of New York City. No two
officials of the treasury agreee as to
where the money went. Some are Of
the opinion that part of the money
might have gone to strengthen the
New York state banks and trust COM
panies during the. furry caused by the
so-called Robin failure early in the
month. Others think the huge with
drawal represented in the payments
piled up in anticipation of the January
dividend days. All the treasury Off
Gals, however, expressed great inter
est in what explanations the New
York bankers might give.
The banks of the South are about
the only ones showing gains of de-
posts That is said to be because
they are now being paid for cotton.
Reduction of loans is the rule, how
ever, all over the country and this said
necessarily to follow such sharp re-
duction of deposits.
Still, with all their reduction, the
banks are still holding $S6,OCo,O0O
more in their reserves than is required
by law. On the whole, the showing
is pronounced good, but the disappear
ance of 100000 from the banks
of New York is great puzzle to the
treasury officials. None OF them car
ed to express an opinion for publica-
ton.

Work of Securing Money for Erection
of Much Needed Hospital in Column
bia Will Be Pressed From Now On
by Members OF Noble Order.

Opening in real earnest the great
campaign which the local circle of
the Kings Daughters will make for
raising funds with which to erect the
proposed hospital here, local talent
will on the night of February 20 pre-
sent at the Grand Opera House "The
National Troubadours.' There will
be above 100 people in the cast and
the entertainment will be one Of the
most ambitious ever undertaken rere
by local talent. IT,
Every where the Troubadours has
been presented it has been received
with marked approval Packed hous.
es have always been the rule and the
intrinsic merit of the entertainment
coupled with the worthy cause for
which it will be presented will unoues.
tionably draw large patronage here.
The music will be a notable feature OF
the occasion.
With this entertainment begins In
real earnest the work Ut the Kings
Daughters for the very laudable pur.
pose of building hospital in Column
bia. The need for such an institution
has long been acknowledged and prac.
tically all of the physicians of the
county have indicated that they are
heartily behind the movement TO Sc
cure the hospital In addition the
ministers and the fraternal organiza-
tions have endorsed the effort.
The hospital will be one worthy>of
the great order that Is going to bGs..i
it, The good women who are back
ing the movement expect to build and
equip and operate hospital that will
be credit to them and will serve the
interests of humanity. 1t will be an
ornament to the community and per-
petual testimonial of the philanthropy
of the people who make its building
possible.
From now on the work of securing
funds for the enterprise will be push
ed. OF course it is yet too early to indi-
cate when the actual building of the
hospital will commence.
