BE ON THE SAFE SIDE
It is true that you are not likely to lose your
savings if deposited in any good bank but you
are ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN NOT to lose them
when you deposit where you have the additional
protection of the State Guaranty Law. Such
protection is offered you here.
It is surely "good business" to deposit where
you get absolutely guaranteed protection, in pref
erence to placing money in a bank that guaran
tees nothing.
The State Guaranty Law is behind every dollar de
posited in this bank, and when you open an account here,
you are ON THE SAFE SIDE.

What the Administration Has Done
As Rpring approaches our thoughts naturally revert to things pertaining
to the season, namely, gardening and city polities, and the latter is the theme
of our present thoughts
Our present administration's probationary period as olty dads is about
to expire and it is now time that the public should pass judgement on their
otllcial acts. Has the present administration made good? Has it measured up
to our expectations? Has it kept its promises? Has it been as we had hoped
a business administration? Let us summarize their successes and failures and
let the people sit in judgement.
What the AiaMstratlM Has DtM.
1. Graded the streets and kept them
clean.
2. Supplied the city with doccut
water and plenty of it.
3. Employed and retained a com
petent as well as an honest water and
light commissioner.
4. Spent 82o00 in making perman
ent improvements at the power house.
r. Put tho water and light plant on
a self supporting bases.
0. Paid all current expenses and
elcaned up .'J50'.) ft! of old city debts.
7. Established a bookkeeping and
iluanelal system that the public rati
understand without the help of a
puzzle expert.
8. Compels everyone to puy their
light and water rent regardless of age,
sex or political influence.
I). Dares to leave a cash balance In
the treasury at the close of tho ilscal
year.
After careful consideration of all the facts, both pro and cou, we believe
the present administration has fairly won the title of Business Administration,
Whit the AdmlilstratlM Has Net Dene.
1. Did not give us an electric rail
road system.
2. Did not give us a sewer system.
3. Did not pave our streets.
4. Did not spend the people's money
digging useless ditches.
5. Failed to discover a remedy for
the horse disease.
