ALBANY WEEKLY DEMOCRAT WHAT IS A BANK DEPOSIT? From Banking Reform. The deposits in the banks arc 16 billion dollars. The money in the batiks amounts to lyi billion dollars; the money outside the banks, 2 billion 3', billion of motley in the whole country. Hank deposits, then, are more than ten times as large as the banks' mon ey holdings; they are nearly five times as large as the total stock of money in the country. For every dollar the banks owe their depositors they have less than a dime in money. Hank deposits arc not money. What, then, is a bank deposit? Only one dollar in twenty of the deposits the banks receive every day (they run about a million a day) arc in money. All the rest arc in the form of orders or promises to pay money. If you go to your bank and borrow $I,(KX) the bank credits you with $1,000 on its books. This is a deposit. If you drak a check against this deposit for $1,000 to pay the mortgage on your home, the man who gets your cheek puts it in his bank. This is a deposit. If you are a manufacturer, you get from a customer, in payment for goods, his written promise to pay you the amount in ninety da;s. You put this note in your bank, which credits you with the amount less interest. This is a deposit. Or, you draw an order on your customer to pay you the amount in ninety (lays; he "ac cepts" the draft; you put it in your bank. This is a deposit. In such ways the great bulk of bank deposits arise. Modern business makes actual money of less and less importance in the exchange ot goods between producers and consumers. Nine-tenths of all our business is now done with bank credit. No bank is ever in a position to pay any largo number of its depositors on demand cash in full. Hut eery sound bank in n sound banking system has its icso'.::ce in such form that il can obtain cr.jii on short notice 15 meet tli2 most cxtrao'iii v demands of its depositors. Kvcry great commercial nation, with the exception of the United States, has provided a means where by sound banks can always convert prime assets into currency. A GREAT SUPPOSITION. Portland Journal: No man is more tit for the honor ut llaltiiuore than Woodrow Wilson. Hut suppose there should be a dead lock, with many ballots and no signs of agreement. The dull routine of voc counting and the long hours of strain would lessen the tenacity with which the delegations cling to their favorites. The waning hours would lessen the hope of lifting a favorite son to the coveted goal. In such an hour, suppose a full lunged delegate of noble mien should take the platform. Suppose he should say; "(lentleuH'ii, I am here to present a new name to this convention. If you ask me from what state he hails, I answer that he is from the loins of the great commonalty. He is a man who never dodges, a man who never .sidesteps, a man who never retreats, lie is tin! man "ho came out of the west with a new charter of Democ racy, who presented its living issues to the American people, who has de fended them from unpopularity to Vopul.irity through sixteen long years of conllict, and who has lived to see (tot only one, but two caudi dates ot the opposing party advocat lug the progressive principles Unit lie then proposed, and lias the profound satisfaction of beholding millions ot Republicans following those candi dates on the advanced ground on which he lon,i ago planted himself, and then some. lientleineu. I pre sent the man from whom Theodore Roosevelt stole all his best policies, the man from whom the progressive Republicans of the nation drew their inspiration, the man who is not Ne braska's, but the first private citizen of the republic." Who knows what might happen? CLOSE FISTED LAWS Public: The law might call it a crime to cat bercakfaM before noon, and punMi perons for doing it. This would make the act of early krc.ikf.isting a crime in your lawyer's professional vocabulary. Hut would it really be a crime? Conversely the law might not forbid murder of child ren, might even allow rewards for it, not he yonrlawycr's professioual vo cabulary. Hut wouldn't it be a crime nevertheless? Possibly you think these instances fanciful. They arc not. Look over the list of taritl crimes, crimes by law, and you will find parallels in abundance for laws 'aaaintt breakfasting earlier than noon; consider the grinding of little children up into big dividends in fac tories, and you have non-criminal ckild-intirdcr in awful abundance. Are mi ot forced, then, to say that except fur technical legal purposes the law is iot the teit of crime. A GOOD ONE FOR HIS YEAR. The people of this part of the val ley should bcK'H to appreciate the fact tliat they arc uoinii to be I'iven a hitfh-grade Chautauqua performance tins year, one worth coining across the state to see and enjoy.

The new president of the Oregon Klcetric, Jos. II. Young, has been in the city today. Like his predecessor, Carl Grey, Mr. Young is an everd.-. kind ol a fellow, who meets yo-.i on i-.'vel ground in a spirit of fellowship. This was Mr. Young's first trip here. uiul he has been pleased with he sit- uahou and the appearance of the Hub. vYell, the Hub likes Mr. Young, also.

The parly has been spending the day circulating among our people, after making a trip early this morning down to the gravel pit. Besides seeing Albany people the men have had plenty of their own bus iness to look after, the city and vicin ity being full of men pushing Oregon Kleetric matters. 9 The passenger depot plans have not been completed yet. but arc being got tfii ready, when the contract will be let, probably within a week. Plans were made, but were corrected, and are being rearranged. Depend upon it Albany will have a depot that will be a credit to the city. The O. Li. never does a poor. job. The track towards Albany is now laid to just the other side of the San tiam. and Mr. Wiekershain thought the rails would reach Albany in about a week, when it will take about two weeks to get things ready tor the cars; but il will probably be the tirst of liiU before trains are running regu larly. Ol particular interest to Albany people lii l'K' statennut of Mr. Young th;i( the C lear Lake power project will be pushed, a big (lung for future oper ations. Rev. Crntchfield Here, Rev.

Street Superintendent Ries recom mended the following improvements: Curbs Fast and west sides Lyon between F'irst and Water; east and west side Broadalbin between First and Water. Walks and curbs. West side Mont gomery between 8 and 9. Norh side Ninth between liaker and Montgom ery, east side liaker between 8 and 9. North side 6th west of film, south side 3rd, Thurston and Lafayette; all both sides 1st, Montgomery to Main. The committee on tire and water re ported that many pieces of property were offered for sale for engine hous es at the east and west ends, but made no recommendation, though ap pointed for that purpose. The matter of hose was ordered re ferred, whereupon Councilman Lyons made a speech on protecting what we have instead of getting excited over new things. He said our lire depart ment is mostly in name. The ways and means committee was direccd to report in writing. Mr. llulbcrt said, that, as a mater of fact, the department had been im proved, both engines being overhauled and considerable new hose bought during the past two years. The city engineer was reported to have prepared estimates of cost of paving 3rd street two blocks, with concrete, $4939.49. Resolutions were ordered prepared. Petition of I. T. Long et al., asked that Water street be paved with gravel bitulithic from the bridge between Oak and Sherman to Lafayette. Re ferred to committee on streets and public property. An ordinance was passed providing for the estimated cost of pavement on First street with gravel bitulithic from Montgomery to Main street. Total estimated cost is $24,263.27. An other ordinance was at once passed providing for the receipt of bids for such pavement. The new plumbing ordinance was continued without reading. The matter of Culverts on Fourth, Fifth and First streets was referred to the committee on streets and public property with power to act. The street superintendent was di rected to have sewer on Railroad street extended to river. The matter of the Baker street sew er was referred to the city engineer to report, with plans, at the next meet ing. Councilman Simpson called up the 6lh street pavement, and suggested it was time to act in some way, but af ter considerable discussion no action was taken. An uncertain grade this side of Lafayette is causing trouble, one that must be settled before pave ment. A resolution was then presented providing for pavement of 6th street, Washington to liaker street, and was passed unanimously. The proposed Water street pave ment was again taken up, and the need of pavement presented by Mr. Wood, Councilman Lyons, J. W. Uammel, Andrew Johnson and Mr. Arnold. The Mayor complained of a very bad walk al Madison and Ninth, which the committee promised to attend to. Silk Hose Sale. Over $1,1X10.00 worth of Ladies' Silk Hose on sale Friday and Saturday at Chambers' & McCune's. If you'll take time to investigate, the values offered are at least one-third less than any other store can offer. Volt can buy Silk Hose for the price of cotton. Women have expressed Uieir sur prise at such a stock of silk hose 25c for lUack Silk foot hose; 39c tor Black or Tat Silk Hose, exactly the same as other stores ask 50c for; $1.00 pair for the same silk hose as other stores ask S1..MI tor; m niaoK, tan, white, pale blue, pink, lavender, car dinal rose and Nile.

Judge Dimick Suffocated. Salem, Ore., May 22. Judge J. R. Dimick, of Oregon City, was' suffo cated to death a a fire which destroyed his mothers home at Hubbard, l) miles south of Salem, today. Judge Dimick was a member of the law firm of Morehouse, Richardson and Dim ick, of Portland, in 1902-4 he prac ticed law at Salem. He was a broth er of Mayor Grant B. Dimick, of Ore gon City, and of Ralph Dimick, the famous football ployer, who leaped from a hospital window and died in a delerium in Portland in October. Judge Dimick was 44 years of age, and unmarried. Details of the trag edy as ascertained here are meagre. When neighbors arrived at the burning structure, Dimick was seen inside, but the tloor gave way and the rescuers were prevented from enter ing the house. Dimick had removed considerable furniture and is believed to have gone back in an effort to save more when dames blocked the exit. Albany will have some June brides. Not a drunk for nearly a month. Albany's lawns are now in their glory. Prospects of more white shoe wea ther. Is there such a thing as paving fe ver? At this time President Taft must smell something. The man without any troubles should be put on a pedestal. The Hub's 4th will have another glorious spoke to it. Roosevelt seems to know how to use the big stick some more. Teddy says he has got it cinched, and could have done anyway, without No man should ever be allowed to occupy the chair of president more than two terms. One is enough. Wonder if Congressman Hawley is working tirelessly for that extra $10,000 for the Albany po. The state of Washington captured some mighty fine Albany cows. We need more to take their place. Albany has its hands full of pave ment for this year, but East Water street is certainly entitled to a stretch of it also. The simpler the wedding the better. Mr. Young also looks good to Al bany people. Really much political is scandal ous. The people arc ruling, and Oregon set the pace. Wonder if President Taft has his ar to the ground - et?

After talking with the committee. Mavor Gilbert, and Messrs. Schmitt, Young and Cusick, who returned from Por landlast night, running over with en- tnusiasm. President Young, of the Oregon Electric, was seen, and hcartilv en dorsed the idea of makinir the 4h of July an opening one for the Ore gon Electric. By that time trains will be running regularly into Albany. He reported the prospects of the rails being laid to the city by the 27th of May. A mile or more a day is now being made. W. E. Coman, of the traffic department promised to begin the publicity part at once and push it. President Young and other officials will be here Tuesday to look over the held ' personally. Ma yor Gilbert also conferred with the Southern Pacific, seeing Superin tendents Fields and Martin, who also promised to assist in the celebration and have some of the prominent S. P. officials here. The road will run ex cursion trains to the city on all its roads. At hrst it was suggested that it was rather presumptions to ask S. P. men to assist in a big Oregon Electric ocpning, but the occasion was nevertheless appreciated. Albany wants the roads to work together, so far as this city is concerned. Chairman Fletcher, of the general committee, will now get busv prepar ing attractions for the great event, and it w ill be extensively advertised. The 4th will be a triple event, the foimal opening ot the Chautauqua, :h opening of the Oregon Electric and a fj .ii' .al cele1 ration of the glorious 4th of July. FIRST HOME BERRIES N THE MARKE The first home strawberries in the season, seen by the Democrat from Linn county, were some fine ones from Brownsville, which probably has the honor of being first in the market. Last year Lebanon carried off the honorf It is one worthy of notice. The home product seems so far superior to the berry that is imported it deserves special mention. The color is deeper, and the flavor is more pronounced. From now on the hunt will be for home berries, so popular with every body. Kenton B. Merrill and Miss Hazel Pfeiffer were married this forenoon, at the residence of Mr. Bert Francis, Rev. Geselbracht officiating. It was entirely private. The groom is a son of E. A.
