NEW WAY TO BUY BANK.

cooperating with the Industrial Com
mission taught the public new wrin-
kle in the way to buy q bank. The
Bank Of North Dakota was provided
for by law and as we understood they
were expected to sell $4,000 900 Of
bonds to the public as the basis for
the bank. This was tried but they
could only sell 100000 IT the bonds
and began business and issued calls
for deposit of public monies. When
there was plenty of money in sight
they drew from these funds and
bought bonds Of the Industrial Com
mission for the necessary amount and
had them re-deposited and the trick
was turned. If individuals could only
start banks in that way we could have
q nice bank in every township. All
that would be necessary would be to
get . building by lease, call in some
funds as deposits, and then use that to
put up for capital stock and the whole
thing could be done without any fuss
or worry to anyone.-Cavalier Coun.
