GAME At nOHALL

The Bottmeau baseball team Jour-
neyed to- MohaH Sunday to play a re-
turn game for the one MohalI played
here last week, and Of course, expect
ed to meet the same team as repre-
sented Mohall here but this was not
the case, supporters of the Mohall
team realizing there was but one way
to win from the Bottineau Home
Iboys and that was to import ais many
ball players as possible and this they
did, as we are reliably informed that
Mohall had but two or. possible three
local players IN the game, while the
balance was made up Of men from
Minot, Sherwood and other towns
having good ball. players. (
h, The game was won by; Mohall, score
z. to 8 but this does not Indicate all.
Bottineau captured the lead in the
sixth inning and a great many sup
porters of the Renville county team
had it figured ont that Mohall was
short about two outside players to win
the game, but in the ninth inning the
tide changed and they managed to
get couple runs across the plate
winning the game. 4. -. - 49,.
Robinson pitched for Bottineau and
although his. pitching was good hits
and errors were chalked against him
when they counted in the tally frame.
Last weeks Mohall paper contained
something like the following which
we are going to correct: "The Mohall
ball team went to Bottineau last We'd
nesday and bit the dust to the tune;
of II to l against the fast SALAR-
led team representing that city,"
Right In that paragraph is where the
shoe. pinches. Bottineau has an all
home team, some of the boys having
played right here at Bottineau for the
past 8 and 10 years and although we
pay pitcher and. catcher for playing
ball they are local boys in every sense
of the word. p .>
In the evening the Bottineau team
juorneyed to the Mouse River Park
where they met and defeated the Toll
ley team, score Is to /. Tolley had
played an afternoon game and as
had played an afternoon game and as
they have but one pitcher were forced
to use man who was a poor pitcher

MI. Editor: sasE#s -~.
"You will observe the serious con.
dition reflected by the fact that the
Demand Liabilities are $1,7s4,4S1.44
in excess of the Current and Demand
Assets" The foregoing quotation ap-
peared in the Bismarck Tribune of
April 10, 1922, and in the Grand
Forks Herald of April II, 1922, and
doubtless in other papers antagonis-
tic to the Industrial Program, and ap-
pears to be quotation from the re-
port Of the audit of the Bank of North
Dakota, as of December 12, 1921,
made by Bishop -Brissman & Co. "You
will observe the serious condition re-
Elected by the fact that the Demand
Liabilities are > - in excess of the
Current or Demand Assets" Serious
condition! How much more serious is
the condition affecting the other s43
state and national banks and trust
companies in North Dakota. State
ment of condition of all banks in
North Dakota, except the Bank of
North Dakota, as rendered to the
State Examiner and to the Comptrol-
ler Of the Currency, as of March 10,
1922, disclOses the fact that the De-
mand Liabilities OF all banks is $685.
SCI ,056.27, whereas the Demand Re-
sources amount to only $27,919,622.02.
Therefore it appears that the Demand
Liabilities of all ether banks in the
state are S35, 5,64l ,434.25 in excess of
the Current or Demand Assets. If
there isssa serious condition existing
in the Bank of 18th Dakota, how
much more serious is the condition ex-
isting in the other banks. The very
purpose of banks is to assemble the
deposits Of its customers in the form
of Demand Liabilities and to loan
"a safe portion thereof on time to car
ry on the activities Of the community
and no bank undertakes to keep on
hand Demand Resources equal to it's
Demand Liabilities. If it should do so
1t would cease to function as a bank.
1t would neither serve the commun-
ity nor derive profit for it's stock
holders, nor make sufficient earnings
to cover its expense, and would there
by become insolvent. The question ma
turally arises, why should Bishop,
Rrissman E. Co. endeavor to show
that the Bank of North Dakota is in
a serious condition" on account of
not having Demand Resources suffi-
'cient to meet its Demand Liabilities,
and why should newspapers endeavor
to mislead their readers by throwing
out the inuendo that a bank is un-
safe simply because it has loaned a
portion of its Demand Liabilities at
9 profit to itself. I leave it to the vot-
er to decide. sf$ s>s ss 49,.
If the voter should decide that such
a statement, if made by Bishop, Briss-
man & Go. and as published in the
newspapers named, lis malicious, de-
ceitful, venenous, unwarranted and
leads to a false conclusion, how much
dependence can the voter place in 9th
er statements from the same source
or presented to the readers by the
same newspapers +?
