The Republican party promised
to be economical in the admini
stration of public affairs. Senator
Culberson of Texas shows that
this pledge, like other republican
party pledges, has been violated.
The showing made by Senator
Culberson is amazing, lake a
look at his tigures:
The total expenditures for 1903,
1904, 1905 and 1906—four years
of Roosevelt’s administration —
were $2,933,004,409. Deducting
the Panama canal expenditures,
it amounts to $2,866,421,K90.
The expenditures for the years
1S9S. 1899, 1900 and 1901—four
years of the McKinley administra
tion were $2,430,316,399.
Exclusive of all expenses in the
Panama canal for the four years
of Roosevelt’s administration, the
expenditures exceeded those of
the four years of McKinley’s ad
ministration — although he con
ducted the Spanish war—by the
extraordinary sum of $434,104,699.

BANK OF BATESVILLE
The Bank of Batesville declared
its usual semi-annual dividend of
ten per cent July 2nd. This makes
the 34th regular semi-annual divi
| dend the bank has declared during
the seventeen years it has been in
business, it has also paid one
! special dividend of 106 per cent.
Since the bank started seven
teen years ago, it has paid back to
its original stockholders 316 per
cent in dividends or more than
three times the original cost of
their stock and today the stock is
worth over $200 on the hundred.
This is a record that has no paral
lel in the state. In fact there are
few banks in the United • States
that have been as successful and
prosperous as the Bank of Bates
ville.
It is the especial pride of the
officers and directors of the bank
! that it has become the leading fi
nancial institution of North Ark
ansas and they expect to maintain
its standing in that respect in the
future.

A LAUDABLE AHBITION.
No matter what you do, pro
vided you do it better than some
one else could do the same thing,
there's a welcome awaiting you in
the world. It was Emerson, we
believe, who said: ‘"If a man can
write a better book, preach a bet
ter sermon, or make a better
mouse trap than his neighbor,
though he build his house in the
woods, the world will make a
beaten path to his door.” Try to
excel—it's a laudable ambition.
