Tbla la a per capita of $71.1 for eacb man, woman or child In the state. There were 439 state banks and 95,052 de positors with $31,315,633.54 to tbelr credit. The number of depositors In national banks has not been learned. The deposits of In dividuals In national banks amounted to $55,766,803.30. A similar report complied In Kanaaa some time ago shows the per capita of de posits In that state to be $59.28. frrlcattom Eaperlmeat Statloae. Chancellor Andrews and other university authorities are preparlag to give their united support to the suggestion of Senator Dietrich; that Irrigation experiment stations be established In the semi-arid regions of Nebraska. The real estate dealers of the state. In their annual convention In Fre mont lat week, adopted resolutions en dorsing the idea and directed a communica tion to the Nebraska delegation In congress asking tbelr co-operation In the project. Chancellor Andrews will probably ask the next state legislature to provide the means necessary for the organisation of stations. Senator Dietrich briefly outlines bU plan as follows: "At the present time, not only Nebraska but all states In the seml-arld districts of the west, are bending every effort towards securing favorable legislation for a suitable system of Irrigation. They are encouraged In this because It has, at last, become ap parent to the people of the east, that the whole country is made to auder so long as the vast area of waste-land of the cen tral and Pacific portions of our natural commonwealth are permitted to remain untitled and uninhabited. With this real ization comes the hope that such steps will be taken, such measures adopted, as will make irrigation In the west an ex tended practice as well aa a universal blessing. , Another vital subject In this connec tion, and one In which the real estate men of Nebraska should be interested, Is that of guarding and strengthening the Agricultural department of the State uni versity. Aa that department atands to day. It possesses an unusually able corps of Instructors and investigators, but la re stricted in Jts usefulness by Impoverished facilities. Its greatest need is a building commensurate with Ita work. Unfortu nately United Statea government baa ruled against aiding the various statea In this one respect. But It will, however, co operate In every way after the statea them selves have provided the necessary build ings. Nebraska ahould not hesitate at this responsibility, but should forthwith procure the quarters required and asalst the uni versity In placing her department on a par, or even above the now ablest agricul tural colleges in the Union. When this ia done. It will be an easy and a natural consequence to bava experi mental stations established la the western part of the atate, belonging to and man aged In, conjunction with tha department at Lincoln. The services of these experi mental stations will be of untold value. Through them may be tried the different theoriea of aoil, culture and enrichment. and likewise forestatlon by meana of plants and treea. Whatever knowledge la gained in this direction contributes an hundred fold to the betterment of the atate." FrcmoBt Canal and Power Scheme. J. F. Hanson, secretary of tha Fremont Canal and Power company, was here this afternoon examining state records which have a bearing on the proposed Fremont power plant scheme. Mr. Hanson said the granting of the recent application of the Central Irrigation company of Columbus could have no adverse effect on the power projects contemplated in the vicinity of Fremont. The application is for an In crease in the allowance of from 1,200 to 2,400 cubic feet of water per second. The board granted the original claim, but the second application Is atlll under considera tion. It the second application is granted It will mean that the flow or water In the Platte river In the vicinity of Fremont will be more even than now," aald Mr. Hanson. In other words, the Columbus company proposes to store water In a reservoir when the water In the Loup river la high, for usa when tha water In tha river la low. The effect will be, aa I have aald, tor tha storing of water for tha dry aeaaon will make tha flow below their plant ateady and oontlnuoua throughout tha year. The Loup emptlea into tba Platte above Uie point where we propose to start our canal and any decreaae or Increase In tha Bow of that stream means a corresponding change in the flow of the Platte." Land Laaslaa; Ttar. Land Commissioner Follmer announces that there are 22.000 acres of school land available In Nebraska for lease at public auction. Tomorrow Deputy Commissioner Eaton will begin the leasing In Antelope county, and later auctions will be held In the eountlea of Cass, Dakota, Hamilton, Johnson, Keya Paha, Knox, Logan, Loup, McPheraon, Nemaha, Polk, Richardson, Washington, Garflrid, Lancaster and Orssley. School land in Beyd county will be held subject to appraisement, as In demnity landa which were taken by the state bava not been appraised according to law. After all the land now available la leased no further auctions will be held until September.

HOW TO CONTROL OPEN RANGE Settlera Flllna-a that Are Really In Intarcat of Stock Growera aad Grasera. MULLEN. Neb.. Feb. 14. To the Editor of The Bee: I have read with much In terest Mr. Fort's letter of-the. 12th Inst., and If you would care to publish them I have a. few proofs and staisments to sub mit to you to show where hef ts right. ..- . This la about the fashion the settler doea here to get land: He will pick a place to Ale where there are not any neighbors and In a valley where the grass grows suitable for bay; then he will go to his neighbors within two or three miles from him and say, 'Here, Mr. B., I live over there two miles. We will save to cut the range In halt." This Is done and a fence put through an equal distance from each of their land, unless Mr. B. wouldn't want to give It up. It he didn't, he would go to town and pick up aome person who had a claim right and have him file near enough to the other fel low so he could not claim any range. Mr. would pay for the filing, put a house on it and all the filer would do would be to stay on it once in six months. At the end of fourteen months Mr. B. would have him prre up and pay all expenses and give him a bonus of $200 for tha land. There are lots of people who would aell their rights for that amount. Not long ago an instance came up. I will not name the parties, however. A big cattle man named Smith came into the country and bought out three or four ranches. He had the right to claim about three miles of range owned by a "Mr. John eon," ao Johnaon saw he was going to lose some range and bay land- He' came to town before Smith knew what ha waa up to and got a widow to file on a piece of land, This spoiled Smith's proposition and he didn't get the range. Not long ago the womaa proved up by paying out, Johnson putting up the dough, and when aha got her deed aha deeded the land to Johnson and got $300 for It I know of one big outfit that came Into the country a few years ago and after buy ing several pieces of land and leaaiog some school land they paid every man who worked for them $100 each to file on land and prove up on It Just as I have men tloned. -I agree with Mr. Fort when he says this ought to be stopped. It ought to be fixed In such a way that a aettler, if be paid out, could not aell for at leaat two years. This country Is mostly bills, and after a short time settlers are coming la so fsst and people filing on the choiceat landa In tha way mentioned, there will be no hope for the man who wants to coma here to make a living and bava room to graze a few head of cattle. If each aettler would be allowed 640 acres and requirements be auch that ha would have to eettle down and live on and make it his home It would make a regular bo nansa for western Nebraska. But the way It la now tha small man has no show. only for that little. Insignificant 160 acrea Hoping that our United 8 tales government will-take some hold on this In the near future, I am, youra respectfully, C. C. CAMPBELL.

To the Editor of The Bee: I crave your indulgence to answer the letter ot Mr. R. M. Allen of Ames, Neb., which appeared In The Bee under date of the 10th Inst. Mr. Allen admits he would be against the land leas ing bill If the leasing privilege did not extend to "homesteads on which filing has been made and which are In procesa ot proof." That portion of section 1, of House Roll 7,212, by Bowersock, which refers to the leasing question, resds: "Preference for such leases shall be given to Owners ot cultivated agricultural land for leasable lands abutting upon their freeholds in pro portion of ten acres for leasehold to ona of freehold. A . like preference of ten acres of leasehold to one ot freehold shall be given to stock growers who are free holders." As I understsnd he law, a homesteader is not a freeholder In this connection until after be has made final proof and received a final receipt or pat ent from the government, consequently. If my contention ts correct, under this bill the thousands of homesteaders whose homes now dot the sandhills and who have not yet made final proof could not leaae a foot of land under thla bill, unless there was some not leased under the provisions quoted. Mr. Allen, who signs himself "General Manager," wants to know what I mean by "clandestine." In answer will say that It means "secret, private, hidden, withdrawn from public view," and I meant it to have just that meaalng In my letter of the 6th Inst, to The Bee. There is no doubt In my mind of any man familiar with the origin and history of this bill but that It la being surreptitiously and clandestinely fostered by a powerful lobby In Washington. Certainly such little "glmblets" and "sa tellites" as Mr. Allen and myself are out openly for and against the bill, but the power behind the curtain ts not exposing its hand. It realizes if it did It would mean the death of the bill. Where, I ask, are the small stockmen and agriculturists who reside west of the 100th meridian, clamor ing for the passage of tbla bill. It is true there , are a lot of understrappers who howl for its passage when their masters pull the string. I venture to say there are not a dozen men In Nebraska demand ing the passage ot this bill. There may be aome who have Interests in thla section asking for Its passage, but they do not re side here; they do not rear their families here, they do not school them here, they do not have to put up with all the trials, hardships and inconveniences of frontier life, and, in my judgment, Mr. Editor, they are not entitled to as much consideration as those who do. JOHN O. MAHER. GIVES WORK TQJI0RE CLERKS Elcht-Honr System Will Be Enforced la Chlcaao Poatal Service. WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.
