We are pleased to call your atten-
tion to the above financial statement
showing assets aggregating over six
hundred thousand dollars with cash on
hand of approximately one hundred
sixty thousand dollars of said assets.
The assets of this institution are the
largest of any bank in the northeast
part of the state of Oklahoma. The
International Bank & Trust company
after the combination of assets of the
two banks will have more ihan twelve
hundred depositors; and we point with
pride to the fact that these depositors
in this bank are all insured and guar-
anteed by the guarantee state law of
Oklahoma which has been so severely
tested for the past three years and un-
der which no depositor has been com-
pelled to wait one hour for his money
in the few institutions which have fail-
ed on account of mismanagement. The
army of depositors should be not only
inspired by the fact that their deposits
are guaranteed but with a progressive
bank with large assets as above shown
is keeping pace with the order of things
and makes a strong institution for the
many customers to patronize and sup-
port. "Fair dealing" will be the watch
word of this institution the same that
has been since its organization. Com-
petent courteous and capable officers
win always be at the helm. You can
at this bank tell your troubles in a
confidential way get advice and coun-
sel from the officers without the same
being made public. No gossiping and
tattling about customer's business
transacted at this bank will be toler-
ated. A strictly safe and sane bank-
ing business will be transacted with-
out any frills and furbelows with gen-
tlemanly employees in diarge.
We welcome all the customers of
both institutions at our new location.
We have purchased a one-half interest
in the Cherokee building and are now
in our own home and feel we are more
substantially and permanently located
than ever before. The International
Bank & Trust company is now one of
the established successful institutions
of Craig county. Us ollicers will not
be changed at the present time. Mr.
B. A. McFarland. cashier of the Chero-
kee National bank lias been elected
liquidating agent for the Cherokee Na-
tional bank and will later on be official-
ly connected with the International
Bank & Trust company as his record
for faithfulness and competency while
managing officer of the Cherokee Na-
tional bank has endeared him to ail
the officers of both institutions. He
will be found at the International Bank
& Trust company quietly and court-
eously looking after the affairs of the
customers of the Cherokee National
bank.

Chicago 111. Sept. 16. What city
and state will entertain the 1912 meet-
ing of the National Irrigation Con-
gress? Although it is some weeks
until the congress holds its nineteenth
annual meeting in Chicago December
5 to 9 next this question is already
bobbing up. Several cities have ex-
tended invitations for the twentieth
congress or announced their intention
to do so.
Prominently mentioned at the pres-
ent time are New Orleans La.; Los-
Angeles and San Fricisco Cal.; Port
land Ore.; Phoenix Ariz.; Rochester
N. Y. and Atlantic City N. J. It is
probable other eastern and southern
cities will extend invitations. Charles
ton S. C has wanted the congress
and other cities in the Mississippi Val
ley besides New Orleans would be glad
to have this meeting.
The Interest in drainage will bring
large delegations from the south this
year and as the west is planning
strong representation there promises
to be a lively contest at the coming
Chicago meeting for the privilege of
entertaining the following irrigation
congress.

TOO WILL HAVE NEW
SYSTEM OF INFORMATION
In order that they may be able to
keep thoroughly abreast of the times
the officials of the Frisco have put into
effect a plan by which practically all
of the most up-to-date information re
garding railroad service and the many
things pertaining thereto may be
brought to their attention with the
least possible delay.
To accomplish this the publicity de-
partment of the Frisco has been au-
thorized to subscribe to seventeen
leading magazines. AH of these mag-
az'nes will be read each month and
whenever articles which may be of
value to any of the many departments
are found either a brief of it or a
note calling attention thereto will be
sent to the official in charge of the
appropriate department.
In order that hints information or
suggestions for all departments should
not be neglected it was found neces-
sary to subscribe for a large number
of publications which include those
upon engineering accounting immigra-
tion mechanics traffic and law in ad-
dition to several which devote con
siderable spa;e to art'cles upon the
general financial legislative and po-
litical conditions.

ferously as he followed his seconds to j
the dressing room while only pity was
expressed for the western giant.
Among the spectators in ringside
boxes was Senator Frawley author of
the present boxing law and a party of
friends. During the seventh round
he shouted: "Stop it! Stop it to Ref-
eree Charley White but the latter
either did not or would not hear.
The preliminary bouts were com-
pleted at 10:30 o'clock and five min-
utes later the big men entered the
ring. His chief seconds were Con
Riley and Joe Jeanette. Flynn follow-
ed two minutes later seconded by Abe
Attell and Danny Goodwin. The

Manager Billy Roche who was at
the ringside said Kaufman would chal-

When the men threw off their bath
robes Morris towered over his oppon-
ent who looked like a middle weight
beside the big fellow. They squared
off at 10:46 o'clock.

That the accounts of several of the
county officers of Craig county show-
ed shortages was freely rumored on
the streets here while R. N. Nash was
going over the books for the state ex-
New aminer. Just what these shortages
were could not be ascertained. In most
cases it is claimed the inspector Check-
ed as short the amount of several
claims paid by the officers which he
thought was illegal. The officers will
fight the matter out in court. The fol-
lowing dispatch from Oklahoma City
is from Nash's report:
Oklahoma City Sept. 18. Various
county officials of Craig county are
said to be short more than $13000 in
their accounts according to the report
made Saturday by State Examiner
Charles A. Taylor. The larger deficit
is in the office of the county judge who
