oBsEoUIoUs PRESS AGENT DOOMED

At its annual meeting in New York
the American Newspaper Publishers as
sociation agreed to continue war on the
press agent-that scientific molder Of a
surface public opinion.
One method of the press agent is to
work out his point in such readable
form that it is published without cost as
a newspaper story" At the publishers
meeting it was claimed that certain pres
idential and other political booms have
nothing behind them but an imaginative
press agent, whose business it is to keep
'favorite sons" in the public mind.
Another publicity seeking method is to
offer n newspaper n certain amount Of
advertising with the understanding that
free space will be given in the news col
umns. In this class was instanced or

vertisements on condition that the news
paper will run stories about oranges.

NEW HIGH RECORD OF DEPOSITS
Denver Bank Deposits Indicate That
Prosperity Has Reached Us.

A new record for deposits in Denver
banks was established Monday when
all the banks in the city issued state
ments in response to call from the
comptroller of the currency for n state
ment of their condition at the close OF
business on May /.
Eleven banks in Denver, including ma
tional and state banks and trust com
panies, had deposits on May ! aggre-
eating 500, 100000. These were the larg-
est deposits in the history OF Denver
banks
The figures represent an increase OF
s24, ,2s7 900 in deposits since March q,
1915. and of $3,244,OO0 since March Z,
1916, when the total was $50 ,O56,O 900. The
increase since Jan. /, 1916, has been
S5,3OO,0OO.
The showing indicates that the pc
riod of prosperity for Colorado which
started in last year, not only continues,
but that the volume of business is stead
lily on the increase. 1t is said that IL
the call had come a few days later the
gain would have been larger by several
million dollars.
