November 8, 1007 Nearly all of the tobacco town*- are now feeling the result of the recent .panic. Tin? banks that carry the warehouse accounts, and the other banks as well, have stop ped paying dollar for dollar de posited with them; they are paying out only a limited amount in cash and giving cashier's checks for the balance. This is all right in tin face of existing circumstances, antl is no indication that the banks nre not safe, they are only following the lead of the banks in the inoues centres in doing this. The local banks cannot draw their deposits from the banks in which thev havV been placed, and iu most evety in stance where the local batiks lmve adopted the cashier's check method, they were f >rced to do so on that account. It is with a great deal of pride that we can say our local bank are in excellent condition, an«i have not been forced-to adopt tin methods of the banks in nearly every other tobacco town, The* are paying dollar for dollar in cast for every check presented, It is also gratifying to know Ilia! the depositors of these banks have the utmost confidence in'them,, and that instead of drawing out their money they are putting in more every day.

While there was a decrease in cotton of hall a million, there was an increase of one and a quarter million in groceries and >400,000 in dry goods, and half a million in building materials Some papers are congratulating Mr. Rockefeller on his large part in checking the financial panic Perhaps, how ever, if it hid not * t>een for Mr. Rockefeller and his ilk, there would not have peen sn mnch panic to need checking The South expects to cxpoit about a' billion dollars' worth of agricuitural products this year, which may be one reason why it is viewing with no particular alarm the paper panic they have b?eh having iu New York.

It is done merely to tideovet a titnfc when the money they have deposited in other banks is not available, ami to meet the demands of business.

' To the Editor: I understand the banks at Rocky M unt have stopped paying full amount in cash for checks, which leads ire to con clude that it is suicidal to auy in terest, whether it be nwrcha-t, farmer, contractor, real estatedeal er, or auv other occupation todraw out their deposits from the banks ami put it in idleness. It all has a tendency to retard business and depreciate the product of their labor. Out of the six or seven hundred thousand dollars of de posits in the banksof Rocky Mov.nt I would suppose that three-fourths of Ihe amount is out on good papers which is not due, .ar.d since out bank can't draw from another it> time of need, the liest thing t£ do is to increase deposits all vou can instead of drawing ou tbeui tin necessarily.
