MOFFITT RANCH BRINGS
AROUND S25,OOO.

l.. nj. Harris last Saturday closed the
sale of the Clyde Moffitt ranch of 800
acres lying three miles north of town,
to John Workman, for something like
$4,000. The ranch which Is known
as the old Bingham place, is one of
the very best on the prairie. On Mon
day one half of the place was sold
to Siert Medema. Possession will be
given the first of March. Mr.. Moffitt
will soon have sale Of personal effects
and expects to return to his old home
at Rock Island, ILL.,, for lengthy visit,
and may possibly locate there.
Messrs. Workman and Medema who
have become the owners Of this fine
farm, are members of the colony of
Hollanders which recently returned
here from the south part of the state,
some of them having formerly lived
on Camas prairie. Henry Korthuis is
largely responsible for the colonization
of this bunch of desirable citizens in
this community. Messrs. Kadyk, and
another member of the colony arrived
here last week from Amsterdam, Ida,
bringing with them three carloads of
fine stock and household effects. These
gentlemen are working on the right
principle, they are buying land and
dividing 1T up into tracts that can be
settled upon and handled by one family
If this method could be applied to the
entire prairie country, we would more
than double our population and would
soon have one of the most prosperous
communities in the whole northwest

TO SELL BONDS
TO BANKS IS
PLANNED
Would Save State 100000,
Says Treasurer John w.
Eagleson.

A saving of 100000 in interest on
the $1,000,000 road bond issue asked
for by the state highway department
can be effected if the legislature will
enact measure permitting the state
banks of Idaho to invest per cent
of reserve funds in the paper. That,
in brief, is the suggestion of John w.
Eagleson, state treasurer, who says it
would mean the sale in Idaho of all
state bonds and reduce the rate of in
terest on them from to 315 per cent.
He has written letters to the 130 state
banks asking their opinion of such a
plan.
Could Earn $533,333.
Eagleson will ask favorable atten-
ton from the legislature on his sug-
gestions. He has pointed out that the
banks of the state can earn $685.
1898 on the road bonds while the
state is making big saving.
Under the present law it is neces-
sary for all state banks to keep 10
per cent of their deposits in reserve,
6 per cent of which must be in cash
and 8 per cent in exchange. National
banks are compelled to keep but II
per cent of their deposits in reserve.
Bonds as Reserve, Too.
The state treasurer says the reserve
in state banks can be cut to u per
cent with safety to permit Of the pur-
chase of state bonds with the remain
ing 3 per cent. OF the reserve he
would hold 5 per cent in cash and I
per cent in exchange. He would al
low banks holding bonds TO file them
with the state at any time for security
and credit them as cash reserve. Ihe
reduction of the actual cash reserve
In the banks would cut the cost OF
burglary insurance, he says. while the
money invested in bonds would draw
interest at 31a per cent.
Exchanges draw = per cent inter
est. The money taken from eastern
banks and put in Idaho state bonds
would draw 31s per cent interest.
The state now pays 4 per cent in
terest on bonds, and in some instances
4l% per cent. Eagleson says the SAFE
of the bonds to state banks, Ill ad-
dition to giving Idaho money greater
earning power, would have the result
of forcing down interest on bonds
fioated by this state in the east
Could Handle $l,00O,OOO.
The 1870 state banks In Idaho have
danosits totalling $37,000,00O. III they
all turned per cent of their reserve
into state bonds they could handle an
issue of approximately $1,1OO,0oO. But
the state treasurer does not believe all
would accept his plan, since he does
not wish to make ii compulsory. How.
ever. he says, many national banks
would be glad to purchase bonds, anu
he has no fear but that the paper
would he taken up quickly
Eagleson would not have the banks
trade part of their reserve Tor i roau
bonds alone, but would permlt tnenl
to buy any paper issued by the sfa'e
IN the future.
