BANK IF b|SbEE ID AID SMALL
 DEPOS|TORS
Opens Savings Department Sept. |; i Per Cent In- terest; One Dollar Will
 Start Account

Beginning September 1 the Bank of Bisbee will open its savings depart ment and will pay interest on depos- its of that class at the rate of four per cent per annum. This was cn. nounced in a circular issued by that bank yesterday. The circular states that s1 win start an account and wig bear interest.
 Following the announcement of the Bank of Bisbee that it was prepared to pay interest on time or savings deposits a representative of the Re view called at the bank and saw Mir. Connolly who gave some further in formation on the subject. He stated that deposits might be made at any time and interest commences on the first of the month immediately fol- lowing such deposit Interest at the rate of four per cent per annum is payable mkannually on the first days of January and July.
 The bank reserves the right to de- mand a notice of sixty days of with drawal, but while it has that right, will not be likely to use it, the only occasion being a nation wide shortage of funds. This is the same provision that is in vogue with the savings ln- stitutions of New York and other of the larger easgsrn states and it has been seldom indeed that they have ex. ercised their privilege. It is merely a safeguard for the benefit for all of the depositors of such institutions.
 Speaking of the reasons for the opening of the new department Mv. Connolly said that from time to time the management of the Bank of Bis bee had contemplated this matter but that 1t had been deemed best to build up the strength of the bank before pursuing such course, to accumulate undivided profits and so increase the financial ability of the institution. This has been done and capital sur plus and profits now exceed s200, 900. Another reason for delay was in the past conditions here. In former times Bisbee and the Warren district were just minine camp with large floating population It then lacked stability. A city and a permanent business community has grown up with a population which is more stable and less drifting. This warrants new banking methods and the bank having built up its financial strength is now in a position to share profits with depositors.
 This sharing of profits is an en. couragement to thrift and an incen- tive to industry and the character Of population in the district nov war rants the offering of such inducements is in the opinion of the directors Of the bank.

Half Million Mark
 Passed By Fly Swatters
One Box of Dead Ones Ar rives Without Name; Follow the Instructions and Get Full Count for Efforts, Say the Committee

the first day until the last.
 One box of flies was received which would have been included in the count of yesterday except for the all import ant reason that there was no name upon it or in 1t. This made 1t inn possible to credit any one with that lost the count and the total is sever al thousand less than it otherwise would have been.
 Another contestant will be disap- pointed at an allowance of only 2,00O These were contained in an envelope and had been put in wet or at any rate were so packed down that it was impossible to get an accurate count Therefore an allowance of 2,0Q0 was given but the committee states that hereafter no allowance or count will be made for flies packed wet or so mashed and matted that they cannot be properly measured for counting.
 Another box contained in addition to the flies scraps of refuse from a stable, straw and other dirt So far as possible this was picked out and deduction made for that which could not be readily picked out Such con ditions as these should be avoided by the contestants themselves They will have to exercise some care them selves in this matter and by so doing will aid the committee in obtain ing the most accurate possible count.
 If the present good work is kept mp there win have been killed by the time the crusade ends on September upwards of 4,000.000 which, accord ing to the San Antonio estimate oT the number of germs carried by each fly will mean also the destruction of over four trillion germs. Surely this is going some in an effort to pre- vent the spread of germ diseases in a community. The possibilities of what is being done are enormous when put into figures.

Senator Ashurst:-"The Arizona press must have consulted the wrong dream book if they have said that there is any disappointment on my part over the nomination of Woodrow Wilson. I think he is one of our country's good and great men and that be will be elected there is not the slightest doubt. Men who have had much experience in politi- cal affairs in the east say that Pres ident Taft will not carry above five or six states and they will be states with small votes in the electoral col leges. Woodrow Wilson is not only one of our greatest scholars but one of our profoundest thinkers and he is certainly a progressive. I would advise all persons to hear him speak if they have an opportunity, and those who cannot have an 'opportuni- ty to hear him speak should read his speeches and his books"

Upward mount the figures in the anti-fly crusade. Yesterday morning saw the half million mark passed and the count then showed that there had been killed in the first few days of this crusade 5S0,e00 and later in the day other boxes were received which had not been counted. There will be a big job for the counters Monday and indications are that the million mark will be passed on that day and the standing of contestants published Tuesday morning will show this to be the fact. Had it been pos sible to count those that were receiv- ed after ten o'clock yesterday morning it is thought the record would have been a quarter of million higher than appears this morning. Tester day morning the standing of the con teStants was AS follows.

 THE QUESTION before Adyertis- CTS more constantly than any other is, Shall use large or small space?"
 SHALL use small space ire quently or large space occasional ly?"
 THIS QUESTION has been dis cussed by National Advertisers. for years.
 THE LARGE SPACE advocates contend that blow from a sledge hammer is sure to be more effective than the continual tapping of tack hammer.
 THE sMALL-sPACE-FREQUENT LY MEN call attention to the fact that small, STEADY, stream of water will wear a stone away.
 THEY ARE BOTH RIGHT.
 EITHER METHOD will win, HAS WON. time and time again.
 IT WILL WIN as readily for a re- tail merchant with An advertising appropriation Of but a few dollars as 1t will for the National Advertiser with an appropriation of a few hun. dred thousand dollars.
 THE ONE POINT THAT ALL ADJ VERTISERS ARE AGREED UPON IS THAT ADVERTISING MUST BE SYSTEMATIC, MUST BE CoNTIN- UOUS. TO PRODUCE LASTING REF SUITS.
 THERE ARE many instances which might be cited to prove this assertion.
 AMONG the most notable, is that of a certain brand of soap.
 THERE WAS A TIME, not so very long ago when this Soap was 10 he found on nearly every wash board
 THE BRAND had been extensive ly and continuously advertised. was sold all over the United States. and was. hy far. the best known Soap then on the market. THE ADVERTISING WAS DIS CONTINUED. WHY, it would be difficult to even guess. It may have been due to form of logic fre- quently advanced by those who do not make close study of merchan- dising.
 THE Manufacturer. possibly, had listened to unw'ise counsel and de cided to cash in" on the large ex- penditures he had made for Adver- Using by stopping short and relying upon the demand already existent to keep his output up.
 THE INEVITABLE RESULT WAS OBLIVION.

PANAMA BILL
 HAS STORMY
 OUTLOOK AHEAD

WASHINGTON, Aug 1O.-That the Panama measure will not pass to final enactment without a further fight against the amendment permit ting American registry for foreign built ships owned by Americans, was indicated late today. when telegrams of protest were received from the Newport News chamber of commerce and other civic bodies ct ship build ing centers. The telegrams demand ed a hearing before action was taken.
 The amendment put into the bill by the senate opens the way to American owners of foreign built ships to enjoy privileges Of American registry, provided they keep their ships exclusively in trade to and from foreign ports
 It is understood that many house members arc demanding that if fer eIgn built ships are permitted to fly the American flag. congress shall al- so pass law permitting importation. without tariff duty of materials used in building ships in American yards.
 This demand has been frequently before congress. The cost of build in ships in the United States in much higher than in foreign ship yards, and it was said that conditions would be somewhat eqUalized if cheaper foreign materials could be imported without payment of tariff.

Where are we at?" Taft declares that democrats are as bad as social ists and Roosevelt says that if we don't agree with him we are minions of Wall Street. So all democrats are socialists and minions of Wall Street. We haven't heard what Debs thinks about us but we can guess, and we have an idea that Mir. Chain will in- sist that we are under the control of the liquor interests. We must be very bad people, we democrats. but then we are a large majority and don't mind what the angry little boys say before they throw their rocks and run.
