BASHERS' ' CLOSING SESSION

APER BY JOHN W , FAXON OF TENNESSEE
'ninlnntltiK Cntunilttrc Present * He-
port of the Selection of Official *
for the Knultiir Year and
The 11 Adjourn * .
DENVER , Aug. 23. The closing session
( the twenty-fourth annual convention of
ho American Bankers' association opened
1th a full attendance , the election of offl-
crs being on the program. After prayer by
lev. Father Carrlgan of St. Patrick's
hurch , William Hoynll of Richmond , Va. ,
cad a paper on "Tho Need of Banking Fa-
Illtles In Rural Districts. "
W. S. Wood of the National Bank of Com
merce of Kansas City condemned the Ideas
dvanccd In Mr. Royali'a address from first
last. Ho declared that the west had
een enough of currency Issues by local
.inks. The banking business , he asserted ,
vas highly developed all over the country ,
n the cast largo commerce had led to the
stabltshment of banks of largo capital
vhllo in the west smaller commerce had
een satisfied with smaller banks. In the
vest banks were too plentiful , competition
ad bccu so excessive that the banking
uslncss Is not profitable nnd consequently
n many cases not safe. He advocated the
ranch bank system as the remedy ' ( or the
rouble. Large city banks should absorb
Ittlo country banks ; then a plethora of
money could not exist In one locality while
n unsatisfied demand existed In another.
Mr. Bonebrako of Kansas disagreed with
Ir. Koyall's assertion that country districts
ack banking facilities especially in the
west. He quoted figures to show the amount
f money In the vaults of country banks In
-Cansas. John F. Branch , president of the
lerchanla1 National bank of Richmond , Va , ,
'Isagreed with all suggestions. He favored
cmilttlng country banks to issue currency
n the same terms as city.'banks.
George M. Reynolds , cashier of the Con-
Inental National bank , Chicago , followed In
paper on "Uniform Laws for Holidays as
Veil as Days of Grace. "
John W. Faxon , assistant cashier of the
irst , National bank of Chattanooga , Tenn. ,
ollow.ed in a paper on "Banking as U Ro-
atcs to Industrial Developments' . "
Ho said in part :
That there has been great progress In our
y'stem of banking in the last half century
o one will deny ; and that we now have
ho satisfaction of seeing every dollar' of
urrency worth a dollar in gold , every day
vo live , Is an evidence of that progress ,
lany there are In this audience who can
nslly remember the uncertainties which
urrounded commercial enterprises and in-
ustrlal development not so many years
go , when in every business bouse there
mng a Thompson or Dye's Bank Note Re-
orter , glvlna the latest quotations of dig-
ounts on the constantly fluctuating cur-
cency with which our country was flooded ,
t was utterly Impossible for a business
man , at that time , to tell the profit on a
ransactlon , for by the time such money
iad circulated to any great extent , It might
have fallen or risen in value from 10 to 20
> er cent. But now , thanks to that Amerl-
: an idea that we must go forward and not
mckward , wo have a stable currency , circu-
atlng 'throughout 'our entire realm , from
rlalne to Texas and from Florida to the
ilghcst point on the Pacific coast , where a
lollar is always and everywhere a dollar.
Let us hope that the people of this great
nation will never destroy a system' so satis-
actory by .tampering with 'it for the pur
pose of advancing the Interests of any jio-
Itical party. PartUtvnsblp should be kept
aside when it advocates schemes tp put the
greatest . .stumblingblock in the way of in
dustrial development and commercial pros
perity. . ,
How strange it la that there are so many
people with BO many curious and
erroneous Ideas in regard to banks
and banking. Many of these er
rors can bo traced to the teaching !
of those who , in order to curry favor with
he masses for political cffcit , endeavor to
prejudice them against banks by asserting
.bat those who are engaged in banking
abound in luxuries and indulge in a contin
uous round of pleasure , as they spend their
days in extravagant living and in counting
and gloating over their earnings , which they
wve "squeezed" in a doubtful manner anl
n devious ways from their customers.
A bank is not only a place for keeping So
safety the surplus money of a community ,
: iut it is the point of concentration for cap
ital , so that that capital may bo utilized
In the best possible manner for the develop
ment of the Industries of towns and cities
and at the same time afford an opportunity
to men of credit , engaged in manufacturing
contracting , merchandising or farming , ( wh <
have little capital of their own ) , to extend
their business , so as to Increase their own
wealth and the wealth of the community
in which they live as well as to furnish good
ir better wages to those who earn their
living by manual labor.
It is estimated that 000,000 people in the
United States hold shares of stocks in banks
These stockholders are from among the people
ple of all classes In life , and it Is estimated
that there is $1,050,000,000 invested in bank
stock in the United States by these people
Wealthy men , poor men , old men , young
men , laboring men , married and single
women , widows , administrators of estates
and guardians of orphans or of minor chil
dren , have all contributed , in small sums
generally not over from 1100 to $1,000 , to
make up the capital stock of the bank.
Capital separated from labor brings upon
us industrial depression , but where capita
and labor go hand in hand the remit is al
ways commercial prosperity. The banks
furnish the capital for carrying on indus
trial development and are thus the real pro
viders of jnoney with which to pay the wages
and salaries by which thousands of the la
boring classes are kept supplied with the
comforts of life and through which means
happiness is brought to the homes of their
families.
Industrial development Is a consequent re
sult of commercial activity , upon which i
mostly depends. Commercial activity Is ab
solutcly impossible without monetary ad
vantages nnd the only jnenas of securing
monetary advantage is through tbo instru
mentality of a sound banking system. In
truth , industrial development , commercla
success and monetary power ara all iuscp
arably interwoven through the lndlspensabl <
province of banking.
The ofllcers elected were then duly In
stalled. The retiring president , Joseph C
Hendrlx , was presented with a silver puncl
bowl by the members of the association.
The convention adjourned sine die.
At the meeting of the executive councl
held at the Brown after the adjournment o
tbo regular meeting of the association , Al
vah W. Trowbrldgo of Now York was reelected
elected chairman at the council ; James R
Branch , Virginia , secretary , and G. M. Rey
nolds , Chicago , treasurer.
The question of choosing n city for thi
next annual convention was deferred untl
the spring meeting of the council , which
meeting will occur in New York. There
were receptions to delegates and thel
friends this afternoon at the home of Pres
Ident C. B. Kountzo of the Colorado Natlona
bank at the Overland Park club house am
at the Smelters.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
A Eoodly number of republicans gathered
it Plvonka's hall last evening in response
o the call for a meeting of laboring men ,
) ulte a delegation from the Laboring Men's
lepubllcan club of Omaha came down to
end a hand in the organization cf a similar
lull here. The meeting WBE called to
irder by Jerry Howard , who briefly stated
he object of the call , and then John Mc-
Carty of the Third ward wca chosen tern-
iorary chairman and A. H. Murdock tern-
orary secretary. As the committee ap-
olntcd to take up the matter of organizing a
vorklugtnan's club hero was not ready to
cport U was deemed advisable to post-
ione all action tending toward effecting an
rganlzatlon until next Tuesday evening.
By this time it is thought that quite a
ontiment con be worked up and that dele
gations from nil of the wards in the city
will be on hand to take part In the or
ganization of the proposed club.
As several well known renublicans were
noticed in the audience it was agreed that
hort addresses would be listened to before
adjourning. T. W. Blackburn was called
or , but salJ that he 'did not corno downer
or the purpose of making a speech. He
had noticed In the call for the meeting that
t had been announced that Congressman
ilercer would be oresent if it was possible
for him to eet here. Mr. Blackburn aald
.hat Mr. Mercer Is In the west but is ex
pected home today , and that he thought it
> robable arrangements could be made for
.ho congressman's attendance next Tues
day evening. This remark brought forth a
round of cheers which went to show how
popular "our Dave" is here.
J. H. VanDusen was next requested to
make a few remarks and he started out by
saying that he hoped the worklngmcn of
South Omaha would organize , as the battle
this fall must be won by the labor vote.
The speaker contended that the great
strength of the republican party lay In
the laboring man , and he spoke of the
large number of toilers who bad moved to
this city since the election last { all. These
strangers must be taken care of , Mr. Van
Dusen said , as the labor rote held the bal
ance'of power at the present time. The
name of Judge Hayward , the republican
candidate for governor , was mentioned and
brought forth a round of cheers. In con
nection with state politics Mr. VanDusen
said that the present condition of affairs
demanded that the republicans sttp to the
front at this time. The proposed club , If
organized , should , in the opinion of the
speaker , be officered and controlled by labor
ing men and conducted in the Interests of
the laboring classes. In closing Attorney
VanDusen predicted victory for the repub
lican force * this fall.
The next speaker called for was William
Mulhall of Omaha , who spoke briefly butte
to the point. Ho told why the great masses
of the laboring men support the republican
party. It is , he said , because the repub
llcan party is the party of labor and the
party of the people.
After ono or two more short addresses ,
the meeting adjourned until next Tuesday
night. During the interval the committee
appointed to canvass the city for members
will hold a session and map out a plan of
action. This committee is composed of the
following well known citizens : Phil Kern
and H. Elsfeldcr of the First ward , P.
Zellnka and B. Curron of the Second ,
George Burns , and Patrick Tralnor of the
Third and John Morrlaey and Charles Cummings -
mings of tbo Fourth.
