Announces Candidacy

While it has been understood for
some time that our fellow townsman,
George NJ Young, representative in
congress, would be candidate for re-
election no definite announcement has
been made until the receipt of a mes
sage from Mr.. Young Tuesday saying
his hat is in the ring.
Young has always been popular with
the voters of the second district. In
1912 he was elected by majority Of
almost 10000. In the primary election
of 1914, after an exciting contest in
which he was threatened with a libel
suit he won over W. P. futile, by a
vote of two to one. This was followed
at the general election of 1914 by
majority of II 400, the largest majority
given to any candidate for congress in
the northwest.

Krug, were driving out home after at
tending the Nonpartisan League
meeting in town, their team became
frightened and ran away. The horses
got free from the buggy and ran into
a telephone pole, breaking the neck
of one of the horses. 1t was valuable
driving horse and is quite a loss. The
boys were lucky to escape any injury
themselves, especially as the accident
occurred about II at night.

Resources Of State Banks
and Trust Companies Grow

Bismarck, April S.-Resources of
state banks and trust companies show
an increase in resources of $1,853, 900
from Jan. to March 7, according to
reports made to the state examiners
Office.
Loans and discounts increased $685..
352 and overdrafts decreased $73,5S5.
Real estate held by banks decreased
$114,284 and there was an increase in
reserves held by reserve agents of ST.
100000.
The total assets Of the state banks
March Z, was $8S,8S7,512, an increase
of nearly two million dollars in two
months. The combined capital stock
was nine and half million dollars, an
increase of $4,000, with a decrease of
one bank during that time.
The combined surplus and undivided
profits increased nearly $1,400,0OO in
two months.
Deposits March Z we're: Subject to
check, $31,6S2,757; certificates of. de-
post (demand), $731,S94, (time) $780,
979,684; saving deposits, $2,336,908.
Total deposits on that date aggregated
more than $73,000,000. This does not
include the amounts held by the ma.
'tional. banks. = =
Deposits subject to check show a
slight decrease of a half million dol
lars, while time certificates Of de-
post show an increase in two months
of over three and a half million dol
lars. Savings deposits show an in
crease in two months of nearly one
hundred thousand dollars.
It is evident from these figures
that the people of the state are in
vesting their money where it will
bring them interest, rather than leav-
ing it on deposit where they get no in
terest. There has been an increase
in deposits in two months of about
seven dollars per capita for the entire

Nonpartisan Speakers
Tell Wrongs Inflicted

After the Times-Record went to
press Saturday afternoon the only
speaker on the program was A. c..
ToWnley. He told of the work of the
league and also how the farmers were
swindled out of $55,O0O,0O0 every year
in shortage and dockage, and that
nothing much is said about this, but
that an awful howl goes up over the
money spent in Sc instruments to
fight the greater loss. He compli-
mented DR.. Platou on his attitude of
still being for the farmers and the peo-
pie, although he was not endorsed by
the league. Brother Trubshaw, of the
Valley City Courier, came in for mild,
castigation, brought forth by his atti--
tude and newspaper articles. p. R..
takes it philosophically and says he
is still to be found at the old stand.
In the evening there was a fair sized
crowd present to hear the speeches.
The meeting was called to order by c.
j. Lee and turned over to R. B. Martin,
who conducted the program for the
evening. The first speaker was Will,
liz : Grand Forks, who occupied
aL~lt ~ minutes, in which time he ex-'
planned what the league was and what,
it meant to do. This was followed by
a short talk by Lynn ]. Frazier, who
outlined to them what his position
would be if he was elected governor of
the state. Again Towley addressed the
people, giving a little light on the re-
cent fight against him in particular
and the league in general. He urged
the farmers to stand firm with the
league and protect their rights.
The men in charge of the workings
Of the league seem to feel that the
meeting has resulted in much good in
