one rainy day, and my attention was di-

There was not enough energy in any one of
the drops to make it move and there seemed
no way to unite them. Then one drop that
was little larger than the others rolled
down and joined one just beneath it. This
made large drop and it began rolling
down the pane, getting larger and gaining
force as it went, until it swept everything

BANK RESOURCES
SHOW INCREASE
Statements of North Dakota
Banks Show SURPRISES
Are Rising.

State banks Of North Dakota
have increased their resources by
$3.50, 1855 during the last year, ac-
cordfng TO calculations based on the
statements issued Aug. 9. 1913, and
Sept. 4, 1912.
. The total Of such banks
at present amount to $62,466. 11:.O5,
against So, .926.40.
The increase is largely due to the
growth of time deposits, which have
shown an increase of $1.513.234.21.
Other forms Of deposits appear to
have been on the down grade during
the past year.
The surplus funds have increased
by $27.S97.04, and thu total capital-
ization has also zone up $4,000.
The apparent 1 crease in deposits
outside of time certificates is. prob
ably due to the fact that the state
ment recently issued was called be-
fore the crops began to move, while
last year the movement was in full
swing by the time the record was
taken. =
The undivided profits of the banks
this yea show a falling off Of $780,

it develops that the rates as fixed by

are not satisfactory to he shippers Of
North Dakota. a thorough investiga-
ton will follow and the railroad COM
mission will issue whatever orders
they may deem Just and fair and fix
the rates 80 far as this state Is con-
cerned.
Hear Travellers Complaint.
Another important matter to come
before the commission at Grand
Forks is a hearing relative to excess
baggage. This he, ring is at tho re-
quest Of the U. c. T. The travelling
men of the state claim that the excess
baggage rates in North Dakota are in
excess of any other state in the north
west-they contend that the travelling
fraternity in the state pay fully $780,
900 more than they would be compell-
ed to pay on the same amount OF bus
mess in any other northwestern state.
This matter will be given a thorough
probing by the members of the COM
mission.
Another matter of Importance at
the Grand Forks meeting will be a
between the various rail-
road companies of the state and the
members Of the commission relative
to the enforcement OF the letter of the
Dinky caboose law. 1t will be remem-
bered that chapter GAS of the 1911 ses-
