MAY INCREASE CAP.
I7ALT0$l0O,0OO

w. G. Simpson, president of the
Citizens National bank of Meridian,
Miss. one of the largest banks in the
south, and also president of the Amer
lean National bank of Caldwell, is
here on business and social visit of
about fortnight. to look over his To-
cal investments and visit his parents,
his sister. Mrs. B. c. Calvert, and his
brother, S. D. Simpson. of the Amer
lean National bank.
Mr.. Simpsons home. Meridian, is
we'll to the east of the Mississippi
inundation; but he was obliged. in
coming to the northwest, to make q
considerable detour to avoid the food
ed region. coming by way of Cincin-
natl. instead of by the more direct
route via ST. Louis. He describes the
food as mighty catastrophe. which
has cost number of lives and ire
mendous financial losses. The plant
ers throughout the region, he states,
are ruined. and the river, in places,
is los miles wide. The flooded region
is famous as that where the long sta
pie cotton is raised, the cotton which,
when ordinary cotton sells for 10
cents pound, will bring 20 to Csc.
Most of this valuable crop will be
total loss, which will result in a big
advance in the cotton market.
viii Double Capital Stock.
Mr.. Simpson expressed himself as
we'll pleased with this country and his
investments here. He has been, it is
said, instrumental in bringing large
amounts of capital to this region for
investment. and in securing money
necessary for improvements for num-
Der of settlers in many cases where
the security offered was considered
perfectly sound but not acceptable by
local banks. The growth of the
American National, Mr.. Simpson
said. was particularly pleasing as af-
fecting himself personally; and it is
stated he has expressed his intention
to increase the capital stock OF the
bank to 100000 as soon as it shall
become apparent that the demands OF
the city and the surrounding country
warrant such action.

Jordan Valley Covered with Two Feet
of Snow-Stock Losses.
Incoming freighters and travellers
report the entire region from Rock
vile to Jordan Valley covered with
heavy snow. during the past three or
four days. the depth ranging from one
and one-half feet, at Rockville, to two
feet at Jordan Valley.
1t is stated that the heavy fall and
inclement weather caused great suffer-
ing and loss among the stock, the re-
ported loss of lambs being about 50
per cent. The loss is said to have
been greater along the lower levels,
where the snow was wet or mixed
with rain, than in the higher regions
where it was colder, but dry.

0. V. Bailey and VIM. Graft, both of
whom were expected at the meeting,
were unable, on account of the condi-
ton of the roads, to reach the city in
time to attend.
After some discussion. in which was
brought out the fact that the district
to be organized. lying as it does in
two states, may not be able to form
an irrigation district, a committee
consisting of c. B. Banks. chairman,
w. D. Martin and Judge Smell was ap-
pointed to investigate the matter of
organization and determine. upon what
basis such organization is to be ef-
fected. Upon the completion of this
investigation the next meeting will be
called by the chairman.
