A 1907 national banks roll lists 880 of 6137 banks in the United States with surplus and profits at or above paid in capital. In Oregon seven banks qualify. two are in Yamhill county McMinnville First National and McMinnville National. The piece argues McMinnville should convert idle capital into local industry and jobs rather than rely on bank dividends. It compares regional growth in Seattle Portland Tacoma and Spokane and urges more aggressive local enterprise over conservative finance.
A recent traveler to Newberg recounts a hostile welcome at a local hostel. After asking about the town, a clerk sneered that Newberg was a town “and enough to make a man hate his mother.” The visitor left for a private room, condemning such blunt dismissal as harming local business. The knocker is expected to move on soon.
Rev Isom P Wooten at Friends church last Sunday lauded Newberg for low profanity yet warned the rising habit threatens the town. He urged the community to awaken conscience and take a firmer stand to keep Newberg from falling behind other towns.
The editor of the local paper claims he and two others started the Newberg milk condensery plan but appears sidelined in the final list. The passage compares sidelined figures to stragglers from army marches and heat of battle.
A country woman phoned the Graphic office this week to register a request against townspeople dumping refuse onto private property and roadside paths. She argues public roads should be kept clean like town streets and urges others to ponder the golden rule.

An exchange asks if counting words in a column is feasible and suggests writing a thousand words daily for a month, then condensing local items into brief lines after gathering facts. The idea is to produce concise summaries quickly and correct inaccuracies before publication.
