VIEWS OF THE FUTURE.

The Copper National Bank is in
receipt of the following letter from
the Mechanics G. Metals Bank of New
York City bearing on general con-
ditions:
Last February we stated in our
letter to you: 1t is obviously the duty
of bankers to take as long a look in
to the future as possible, and In max
ing a forecast We do not see how it
is possible to eliminate the foreign
conditions. The capital requirements
are great industrially on the CONT
nent, and the continued maintenance
and increase in ornaments Is a
menace" In quoting this We do not
claim the rank of a prophet. but we
think it of interest to note that
clouds precede a storm.
THE first problem financially is
the handling of our surplus cotton.
No one in this country is responsible
for this situation but everyone should
be mutually helpful. We think that
the situation can be handled through
the banks; at the same time the
farmers and their banks will have to
do the pest they can to handle their
local situation. selling for the best
price obtainable what cannot be car
ried. Any group of banks in the
South which have not taken out their
full quota of additional currency VI
think should do so Immediately. This
seems to us to be the first step to-
ward helping the situation. The large
crops would have undoubtedly redue-
ed the price of cotton this year had
conditions continued.
while the war continues this
Will not In our opinion re-
ceive any comparative benefits TO
speak of. II the war is a matter of
years the South must next year plant
other crops than cotton. Southern
bankers we understand are emphasiz-
ing diversified farming. After the
war, the benefits we secure will de-
pend on our ability to expand our
export industries without the finan-
cial help which Europe has always
furnished. If our people realized the
part that money will play In the years
following the war, everyone would
save every dollar he could to In
vest later on In the development and
increase of business which Is sure 10
come. Our country should follow
the example of Germany in the past
twenty years in the cooperative en-
enlargement of all forms of industry.
large and small, under constructive
government help and regulation; and
We should follow the example of all
European countries in the careful
saving and investment of small sums
by the great majority of the indi-
viduals of the nation. In Europe the
number out of every thousand OF
population who have bank accounts
is in the various countries as follows.
Switzerland 554. France 346, Ger
many 81, England 800. Italy 220.

MOST of the domestic" work in South
AvA Africa is done by the Kaffirs. who.
like our southern negroes in slavery
times. are called "boys," no matter what
their age may be.
When the Kaffir boys come from the
kraals no one ever uses their native
names. AS soon as they are brought into
contact with the whites they take
white" name. This produces results not
lacking in the elements of hunor.
Among the house boys Knife Fork
and Spoon" are common names. Ia
ble." Chain Carriage Watch" and
Matchbox" are others more infrequently
used. There is of record one boy who
took the .utilitarian name of Ham and
EGGS
The Kaffirs are very fond of rice when
they learn to eat it among the whites,
and one stable boy thought he had found
the finest name in the world in Rice"
In some respects the Kaffirs are the
cleanest people in the world. They are
forever scrubbing themselves in hot Wa
ter and amounting themselves with oil
afterward But the habit does not eX-
tend to their clothes They will take an
elaborate bath and then don clothes that
never saw the washtuh.
