The oldest national bank of tha quartet !

tional. Its original charter was granted In

this hank had df-poslts of $.1.3:0.000 and on
December 3 of the same year they had In
creased to 13..5.000, and In the face of the
financial depression that jarred the coun- i
try. Stock in this bank is now worth i?'"0
per $100 share. The growth of this hank
has been hand in hand with that of the
stock yards industry. It is paying divi
dends of 16 per cent at present. This bank i
has been under the management of H. C.
Bostwick, president, continuously since its
beginning.
"That shows how much can be accom
plished by, following out steadily one con
sistent program," remarked John C. French,
cashier, commenting on the success of the
South Omaha National.
The Packers' National is the third among
the South Omaha banks In the point of
age. This institution was founded In lt&l
with a capital of 1100.000. in 1908 the
growth et the bank demanded an increase
and the capital stock is now 1150.0)0. The
deposits of this bank, according to the
last statement, are 12.140.&S. The manage
ment of this bank lias changed but little
since its reorganisation. Its growth ha
been steady and consistent in the pursuit
of a fixed program.
The Packers' Katijnal. but recently
moved into its new quarters. The old struc
ture t Twenty-sixth and X streets has been
'ar outgrown. The n?w home of the bajik
Is a magnificent building constructed ex
clusively tor the purpose of the one
concern. The Interior Is highly finished in
maaslve marble and mahogany.
The Live Stock Xntlonal is the youngest
of the South Omaha banking house. It
opened for business In the midst of the
panic of lfO" and got busy in the field
right away. "Everybody wanted our
money and were anxious to pay interest
on it." said L. M. Lord, cashier. This bank
also has a savings department where
minimum deposits of tl are received. Tals
feature has proven an nttr&ction to the
many people of the industrial town.
The Live Stock National handles a
steamship agency, and It is found that
there is a remarkably heavy business in
this line In South Omaha. Most of the
tickets, by the way are for Incoming
passengers, but rery few ever go back.
The foreigners come to South Omaha,
and after working a few months have
saved enough money to ser.d for their
families. Hundreds come in thla way every
year.
In July the comptroller of the currency
designated South Omaha as a reserve city.
This means much for the financial Inter
ests of the community and its Industries.
While many small country banks had
hitherto n.aintalr.fd reserved funds in the
South Omaha banks, such funds were
liable to withdrawal at any time that a
statement as ca'led. As a reserve city,
under the order of the comptroller, the
national banks of South Omaha have thua
available for the uses of their Urge com-1
mercial operations an increased working
fund.
In increasing the scope of the possible
operations of the banks of South Omaha
thia move is of sweeping importance, not
only to the banks, but all the inereu and
concerns which they represent and with
which they are connected.
