Banks do not coin money or create wealth. Rather do they reflect the status,the condition and the resources of the place or district wherein they are located. They are the con-servators or concentrators of the values made by others, and, if a community has no value there wouldbe no banks, or need of them, to handle their finances. The total assets of the banks in Sacramento, in 1890, were $8,255,; in 1900, $10,754,,and, at the present time, $35,487, This is a splendid record, for the banks of this city are notedfor their substantiality and for their solidity and conservativeness.
