-tatutes Require.
The Co ambia0orrespodet C
the N . w and Cou~ier, writing un
dedate of April 24, says:
There is a statute on Ahe book
Swhich require all Sta~bank t<
publish quaa teiy statemenrd
their financial condition.de oom
banks are complying with the
ute while others seem to pa
no attention to it or not - to know
the rguirement of the law.
Attorney General Gunter, in
talking about the matter this morn
ing, said that he eXpected to give
attention to the natter, and he
thought that those banks ought, in
prtection to 'their depositors and
for their own good,- to publish
these statements as required by
law.
The national bankt all, of course
publish their statements, as re
quired by the national banking
laws, and most of the State banks
do so, but if all banks complied
with the law and depositors were
fully advised as to the condition of
the banks, and the banks adver
tised the prosperity, there would
be general good and no harm that
can be seen.
T2egatute upon the enbject
reads:
Section 1,'766.- i

ing money and receamig deposits

institution of the amount of the
