An animated and interesting meet

Friday evening. II was about as
lively a meeting as was ever held
anywhere, unless II be the one pull

some years ago. when the audience
appeared with ropes.
The special order of business
that claimed the attention of the
city fathers was the location OF
the new Fish Trap creek bridge.
At a previous meeting of the coun-
ell il was decided to build the bridge
on a line with Eighth street. and
the town clerk was instructed to
advertise for bids.
At the meeting Friday night a
petition was presented asking the
cc uneil to rescind its former action
and to locate the bridge on its pre-
sent site. After considerable spir-
ired discussion by members of the
council and several citizens. the
council decided to lay the petition
on the table.

A Big Bank Customer.

The American farmer has nearl!
$40, 900, 900, 900 invested in his
business
He produces s25 100000 Of new
wealth every day.
He uses hundreds of millions OF
dollars Of bank credit every crop
season.
But, by reason OF our antiquated
banking system. the farmer bea RS
the burden of dear money. He pays
more for credit than the farmer OF
any other great commercial nation.
The lowest money rates in this
country are paid by spectators in
The financial centers; the highest
rates are paid by the farmer.
The higher the rate for agricul-
tural capital. the higher the cost
Of production. the higher the prices
Of agricultural products and the
higher the cost of living.
The farmer and the buyer OF the
farmers products will both gain by
a reform OF our banking system.
