The Morning News prints below the
accomplishments of the Jefferson
Chamber of Commerce. It is a most
remarkable record and one we believe
to be unequalled in all Texas. We
with pleasure give publicity to the
progress of our neighboring city. It
is worth the attention of every busi-
ness man in Marshall:
Result No. 1.—County agricultural
agent secured by obtaining $1,000 ap-
propriation from county and United
States government supplements fund.
Since instituted, April 1, has accom-
plished much for improved agriculture
and livestock.
Result No. 2.—Established U. S.
cotton classing and marketing assist-
ance office here for Marion and North-
east Texas counties. Only 40 such of-
fices in all Texas. Gives the farmer
nal period. And whn the information
to available the Legislature should
apply itself to the task with but one
single purpose in view and that to give
each section the representation it is
legally entitled. Any effort at ger-
rymandering should be discounted.
Such attempts were never justified or
warranted, but when the State was
embroiled in factional strife it was a
most difficult matter for members of

tion of Marion County Purebred Stock
Association which brought in 30 ad-

is rapidly developing industry to which
our county is especially adapted.

sale of over twenty cars of water-
melons, being first time in history of
county when melons were shipped in

rural communities with approximately
300 members. Purposes: Co-operative
buying and marketing of all farm pro-
ducts. First time such a plan per-
fected in the county, and it is well re-
ceived by farmers and homeseekers.

The Democratic platform as adopt-1
ed at Fort Worth urges the Legisla
ture to reapportion the State into
congressional, senatorial and repre-
sentative districts in accordance with
the report of 14th decennial census
without the unsemly delay that at-
tended this work following the cen-
sus of 1920. The purpose is to give
proportionate representation to the
various sections of the state which
now does not prevail, neither did it .
prevail at the time of the passage of
the last reapportionment act.
The failure of succeeding legisla-
tures following the 13th census to
redistrict the state in accordance with
law and justice was nothing short of
a scandal, though the matter was
passed up as merely one of the many
shortcomings of the legislative bodies
that have succeeded one the other
during the past ten years. The rea-

From a recent statement issued by the Commissioner of Bank-
ing at Austin, Texas, it is shown that the Depositor’s Guar-
anty bund is in a most flourishing condition:
On November 1, 1910, the Depositor’s Guaranty Fund
amounted to $445,517.14—on May 8, 1920. it amounted to
$2,100,849.40. When all assessments for 1919 and the estimated
amount coilectable from assets of failed banks has been col-
lected. it is estimated that the Fund will amount to $2,356,897.27.
Since the Guarantee Laws became effective (January 1,
19100 nineteen banks have failed, causing the depositor’s Guar-
anty Fund to pay out to protected depositors $821,562.22, of
whioh amount $468,144.71 was collected from the assets of the
failed hanks and returned to the Fund. and it is estimated that
$49,279.86 will also be collected and returned tc the Fund.
This will leave the loss sustained by the Guarantee Fund
$304,177.65. That covers TEN years operations.
The average amount of protected deposits from 1909 to
May, 1920, was $117,242,562.00 and the cost to the Guaranty
Fund was $304,177.65, which is .0026’ of the principal—
really a very small charge for the great benefits afforded de-
positors.
