Railroad to llber I.nvr.
Parties having mileage books bought for
use on Nebraska railroads within the last
two year may use them, regardless of the
(act that they may b atamped to expire
within one year of date of sale. Some Urn
ago when Assistant Attorney-General Ayr
presented a mileage book which had been
bought within two years the conductor re
fused to accept It saying that It expired
within one day of date of aale. Mr. Ayres
. reported the caae to the railway commis
sion, which In turn called the railroad's
attention to the law which make these
books good for two years. The railroads,
with the yjtiception of the Missouri Paclflo
and the SI. Joseph and Grand Island, have
alnc reported to tha commission that they
had Instructed their agents and conduct
or to honor all books bought within two
years. Nothing has been heard from the

Fast Would Use,

Postal Savings
Notable Difference in Attitude of
Feople in Two Sections with
Regard to New Banks.
WASHINGTON, Auff. H. -Minnesota Is
leading the dcrrand for postal savings
banks. Moi than 10 per cent of all appli
cations received at ihe Treasury detri
ment hav coiiie from there. The bulk of
ull the app'lcu'.iops rimes from the terri
tory west of the Mississippi.
While the west Is lea. Huh In the de
mur.d for postal barks, the east Is leading
in apjillcatlons from other hanks that want
to be depositories of the funds. For every
pvsial savings bank which has been asked
for ln the east, there are two private banks
asking to be named as depositories of pos.al
money.
The difference In the sentiment Is well
illustrated by comparing New York and
Oklahoma. ' The empire state has applied
for eight banka, and Oklahoma to date
wants eleven.
Pennsylvania, however, - haa thirty-four
applications.
At present there is not money enough
appropriated to establish postal savings
banks In the largest centers of population.
