Since atlonal tanis of thia class are required to carry as a reserve only 15 per cent of their depos its, it is seen that they are carrying three times the reserve required 6y law. All of these banks will be ready to resume business as usual next Mon day. In fact since tte holidays were first proclaimed six weeks ago, nearly all of them have continued to transact their regular business. The report of the Dallas National Bank is highly creditable to those hav ing charge of its management and to the customers who have stood by it bo loyally through the unexpected financial flurry. Although established less than three years ago, this bank Is able to make a showing that corn- tares favorably with the reports of many of the oldest and most conserv atively managed institutions of like character in the state. The publication by the Oregonian of the condition of the Oregon banks ' Is of great value at this time. The figures show that the banks, with scarcely an exception, have increased rather than decreased their deposits and their ca-h tn hand since the be ginning of the holidays. This excel lent showing will serve to strengthen the public confidence, which, by the way, has at no time ben serkusly shaken in Oregon. this Circuit attended on those days, but it was generally supposed tfca both days were included in the series of nonjudicial days wbich are expected ! to end with Sunday, December 15, hence no judge attended on either A T L ..I-... . ...

SalficKy, Prop. 3 5 8 i The initiative Is a dangerous weapon and its use is easily ttuhj.-cted to a terrible abuse, says the Courier, pub lished in Oregon City, where all of the proposed Initiative amendments to the city charter were defeated at the recent election. Those prorxslng to make use of the Initiative should take the public Into their confidence long before the eople are to pass on the measure pro)OBed. The substance of tho pro posed leglslatloushould be perslritently Kept ierore tne voters, it Is not sufficient to say that voters, If inter ested, can Inform themselves. If the success of the Initiative depends on the voters going out In search of Information regarding all measures proposed It will not prove a success. There must be patriotism enough back or tne proposed measure to carry to the voter it equities or else there must be patriotism enough back of the opposition to It to carry to the voter Its unfairness or disadvantages. Whether or cot this sounds fine In theory It will prove itself true from practical experience. President Mulkey Resigns. Hon. B, F. Mulkey has resigned his position as President of the Ashland Normal School. A report that he had resigned was in circulation several weeks ago, but was denied by Presi dent Mulkey at that time. He has not announced his plans for the future. Cass Riggs was up from Crowley on a business visit, Saturday. County Commissioners' Court will be convened next Wednesday.
