THE BEST PIKE TO KEEP YOUR MONEY
is the place where you can get it back PROMPTLY
if really needed.
Only those with a great deal of money can prop
erly afford to consider permanent investments, and
they had best consult with their banker before let
ting go of their cash.
The average nan needs a good sized available re
serve in a strong, safe bank, before putting a penny
into anything outside of his own business.
Ready cash is a mighty good friend.

Short Interest Used as Lever.
" Business Conditions Abroad
Satisfactory .
New York. June 13 -The heavy short
interest in the cotton market that ac
cumulated over the government report
was used as a lever this week by the
boll interests to advance prices to a still
higher level. This operation was great
ly assisted by the strong statistical
position of the remainder of the old
crop. Domestic spinners have been mod
erate buyers, I hey are persistent in the
policy of curtailment owing to the very
unsatisfactory state of general trade
which lately has been accentuated by
the drastic policy of the administration
in enjoining the railroads from raising
rater.1 While the issue has been in a
measure adjusted there is still a feel
ing of uncertainty over the immediate
outlook which deters merchants from
making normal new commitments for
the future.
Business conditions abroad are much
more satisfactory than at home. For
eign spinners have been good buyers of
spot cotton, as reflected in the heavy
sales at Liverpool during the past week
They had been awaiting a decline after
our government report which failed of
materialization and they have ber n tak
ing their supplies since then, at prevail
ing prices.
Weather conditions in the cotton belt
since the issuance of the government
reports have been very favorable for
the germination and growth of the new
crop and the promise of good yield
continues excellent. The state reports
of Oklahoma and Texas are exception
ally, goad both as to condition and acre
age, the figures showing a greater in
crease and higher condition than those
reported by the government, Cotton
is forming squares in SouthernTexas and
other parts of the belt where the weath
er has. been unusually good and some
new cotton should be coming to market
from these section within two months.

in Mass Meeting Assemb
led Endorse Him.
At 12 o'clock yesterday a large num
ber of voters of Craven county, met in
mass meeting at the court house and
endorsed Hon. Charles R. Thomas for
renomination for Congress from the 3d
Congressional District.
The meeting was called to order by
Mr. R. A. Nunn. and he called upon
Hon. Jas. Brvan to preside. Mr. Bry
an addressed the meeting in a rattling
good speech. The main point made by
Mr. Bryan was that the interests of all
Eastern Carolina demanded that Mr.
Thomas be returned to Congress, and
that his constituents had the right to
call for his nomination. It was merely
a question of the interests of this sec
tion and no one else could do what he
could do for deep waterways and all the
great needs at this critical period.
There was great applause for the tel
ling points of Mr. Bryan's remarks.
The number of people present was re
markable and the following resolutions
were unanimously passed.
New Bern, N. C June 13, 1910.
We, the citizens of Craven county, in
mass meeting assembled, hereby en
dorse our fellow countyman, Hon. Chas.
R. Thomas, for Congress, and respect
fully call to attention his untiring ser
vices as Congressman for the past ton
years. We believe that it is for the
best interest of this district to re-elect
Mr. Thomas, and know of no good rea
son why he should not be returned to
Congress. While Mr. Thomas is not a
candidate for the position we believe
that we have the right to acknowledge
our gratitude to him for his valuable
services already rendered and to ox
press our desire to see him retained in
the position in which he has accomp
lished so much for his people.
