BANK DIRECTORS
CHANGE; new men
PLACED ON BOARD!
Pacific National Elects Three
on Board and Accepts the
designations of Others
Deny Miller Controls.

The forerunner Of importan. banking
developments in this state developed
Thursday night in change in the d.
rectorate Of the Pacific National bank
when Ben S. Eastman, George 4.
Guernsey and J. II. Richards were
elected members of the board Of direc-
tors in place of William H. Howell,
Frank Fl. Parsons and John d. DAILY,
who resigned.
This action and the probable consol-
idation and liquidation of the Idaho
National bank by and with the Pacific
National, was predicted by the Capital
News some time ago. 1t Is understood
that the liquidation Is the step that
has been decided upon. This will not
disturb either of the institutions so far
as their respective businesses are con-
cerned, it is understood, and they Will
be operated in the future as they have
been in the past.
BANK ISSUES STATEMENT.
Denial is made by the Pacific Ma
tional bank that the so-called Miller
interests have bought a controlling
interest in that institution, the con-
troll of the stock being held by the old
stockholders. The Pacific Nationals
statement Is as follows:
The statement in the morning pa
per, that the Miller interests had
bought controlling interest in the
Pacific National bank, was erroneous,
in this way, that the control of the
Pacific National bank Is still held by
the old stockholders composed Of the
most substantial citizens of Ada
county.
AT meeting Of the board of di-
rectors held yesterday, Judge ]. H.
Richards, who is one of the leading at
torneys of this city, one time judge of
the district court here, a man of con-
siderable banking experience and con-
siderable means; Ben S. Eastman,
largely interested in the Boise Arte-
sian Hot & Cold Water company and
Boise Overland building and George
I. Guernsey, president Of one of the
strong banks of Kansas and a very
wealthy man were elected as directors.
Judge Richards and Mr.. Guernsey have
purchased a block of stock in the
bank, but not a controlling interest,
and will be identified with it in the
future.
The bank will be conducted In the
future, as 1t has in the past, along
conservative yet liberal lines, its one
object being the upbuilding of this
section of the country"

APPEAL FROM NEVADA.

The following is the telegraphic ap-
peal from Nevada's chief executives
Reno, New, Nov. %. 1917. Hon. NJ.
Alexander, governor of Idaho, Boise,
idaho: Recent advices from Washing
ton make it plain that the government
IS without proper representation from
the actual silver producers of the
country proceeding with Great Britain
in the establishment of price for the
silver to be purchased by the United
States and her allies and with the es-
tablishment of certain embargoes
which will deprive silver producers of
an unrestricted world market.
The silver producers of this state met
here today on my call and adopted
resolutions directed to secretary of
treasury requesting that no definite
action be taken in this matter until
silver producers can submit the facts
in their case as was done by steel and
copper producers before the prices on
those commodities were set.
1t is apparent in these negotiations
that the principal vendors of silver,
to-wit: the smelters and ore buyers
are conducting same and that the pro-
Queer who is most vitality concerned is
having little to say. May 1 respect
fully suggest desirabilty of conference
called by you Of your silver producers
with an idea that a general and intelli-
gent presentation of the case of this
important industry may be made
promptly by all sections interested.
With kind regards,
EMMETT d. BOYLE,
Governor OF Nevada,

Governor Emmett d. Boyle, of Ne

ernor Alexander urges that a confer
ence of the silver producers in Idaho
be held for the purpose of calling to
the attention Of the authorities OF
Washington the necessity of their be-

finally set. Such a conference was
held at Nevada and resolutions passed
asking the secretary of the treasury to
permit the producers to be heard.
The appeal shows the Importance

WOULD FORCE SHUTDOWN.
The executive committee of the
idaho Mining association, realizing
that if a low price is established for
silver it means the closing Of numer-
Gus mining properties in this state
which under a fair price can continue
to operate, has issued a call for mining
men to meet at Wallace Saturday
afternoon at which time it is likely
that action will be taken similar to
that of the Nevada mining men.
Numerous silver properties within
the borders of Idaho are beginning to
get on their feet within the past two
years due to the prices offered for sill

operations in the future, but mining
men believe they Will be closed out ii
