A MAN WHO KNOWS
Advertisement.

ANY man who Lads carefully Inc
sketch of the career of Capt. Y. 3.
steele can not fail to be impressed
with the fact that if ever there was
a time in the States history when
his services were needed, and badly
needed at that, it is now.
His training in both branches OF
ta.le General Assembly was followed
by several years in the Auditors Of
fee, and then several years in the
Treasurer's office. tt was this
triple service which enabled nm,
not only to discover the Burke de-
%faulcation, but to demonstrate how
every spurious bond could be de-
tected and thus put a stop to the
States losses. Added to his public
service of years, Capt. Steele has
been the live wire in n OF the
most wonderfully successful banks
in the whole of Louisiana. It was
he who placed upon solid grounds
the finances of the State'sleyee
system. He knew what a levee bond
was worth, because he knew all the
collateral facts that hedged that
bond about. His bank did not hesi-
tate to buy these bonds and to fl
nance the levee boards. This gave
confidence to other banks, and to-
day there are few better securities
to be had than a leyee boards obli-
CATION. Through all these years of
activity in public life and private
financial affairs, two leading facts
shine out in Capt. Steele's life.
First, he is active and industrious,
never leaving to others duties and
responsibilities that are his; Sec
ond, not a faint or suspicion ever
attached to a transaction with
which he was connected. He is a
real Confederate Veteran; a genu-
inc Louisianian, a certified flnan-
cier, and a thoroughly reliable bust
ness man.
II Louisiana wants a business
administration of her finances she
will make nc mistake in placing
them in Capt. steele's hands.
