Praise of Judge Crisp
Is Given by Friend
Judge Charles R. Crisp, house
parliamentarian at Washington,
received recently the foliowirg
complimtary letter from his per¬
sonal friend, Congressman 0. W.
Underwood, of Alabarha, chair¬
man of the committee on ways
and means ef the house of rep¬

The kindly sentiments therein

Washington, D. C., )
Dec. tt, 1911. S
Hon. Charles R. Crisp, House of
ReppMeafeativaa, Washing¬
ton, D. C.
My Dear Friend: The house
ef representative* will adjourn
today for the Christmas holidays,
and before the year closes I wish
to express to you my sincere ap¬
preciation of your faithful and
most efficient service to the house
and the democratic party in your
positional the parliamentarian of
the house.
I can say to you candidly that,
in my judgment, few could fill
the position as well, and none
better than you have done, and
your patience and courtesy have
been appreciated by us all.
I understand that your friends
in your home district are sup¬
porting you for the democratic
nomination for congress. I hope
very much that you will be nom¬
inated to fill the position as a
member of the house that in for¬
mer years was so ably filled by
your great father.
I ftfd sure uiat as a member
of the house you will render as
great, if not greater, service to
our party than you have in your
present position. Wishing you a
happy Christmas and a most suc¬
cessful New Year, I am,
Sincerely yours,
0. W. Underwood.
Put Your Money in,
a Bank
It is good advice which a Colle¬
ton County 7 . S- C.., exchange
gives in urging farmers to start
bank accounts this fall, no matter
how small the amount left over
after the year’s debts are paid.
We quote:
"If one keeps money in
his pocket, it is likely to ;go
and he will never know how
it goes; so though you have
only ten dollars in your pock¬
et, go to one of our banks and
start a bank account. To have
money in a bank will give
one a feeling of independence
nothing else can give. Do not
think that because you have
only five or ten dollars to
start an account the cashier
will not want your deposit.
Any cashier will gladly wel¬
come you as a depositor if
you have but one dollar.”
We hope thousands of our read¬
ers will follow this excellent coun¬
sel. Having a bank account (1)
encourages the saving habit, (2)
dignifies the farmer by making
him more ot a ’‘business man,”
(3) provides a better system of pay¬
ing money than specie payments,
(4) helps the community in which
one lives, and (5) makes it easier
for the depositor to borrow in
case borrowing instead of deposi¬
ting sometimes becomes advisable.
Put your money in a bank.—

Cotton Broker Reese
Ends Life with Bullett
Natchez, Miss., Jan. 5. —Wal¬
ter P. Reese, a member of the firm
of Reese & Morgan, cotton brokers
of Natchez, shot himself in the
head here early today and died
four hours later at a hospital.
Mr. Reese suffered a stroke of
paralysis several months ago. He
had never fully recovered, it is
said. The firm of which he was a
member is well known over the
His son, Arnold Reese, re¬
sides in Boston, Mass.
A negro porter found the body
upon entering the offices of the
firm at 7 o’clock. The shot had
been fired only a few minutes
prior to the porter's arrival.
Mr. Reese was still seated in a
chair before a desk. The revolver
was on the floor where he had
dropped it after shooting himself.
The employe gave the alarm and
physicians summoned hastily de¬
cided to take the injured man to a
hospital. Death occurred shortly
before noon.
The contents of a letter left by
the broker addressed to his partner
have not teen made public, but
the announcement was made that
Mr. Reese's self-destruction prob¬
ably was due to the state of his
health.
