II. G. DePledge had rendered his res
ignation as cashier some time ago, and

draw it, the directors reluctantly accep-
ted it.
Mr.. Humphrey, in conversation with
a HERALD representative, said that the
stockholders and directors had all ex-
pressed themselves as exceedingly sorry
to have Mr.. DePledge resign, and all
were we'll pleased with his management.

in an excellent condition.. Mr.. De-
Pledge consented to remain with the
bank for six months to assist in the man
agement.
Mr.. Gaddis is not unknown to Pull

ton, and while the patrons Of this pop
ular bank will regret to see "Harry'
leave it, yet they will find in Mr.. Gaddis
a worthy successor. The other officers
are well known in this community, MIR.

For Destitute Nebraska.

Mr.. S. Shearer, of this city, has en-
gagged himself in the philanthropic work
of managing the collection of sufficient
wheat, flour and other provisions, TO fill
one or two cars, which will be sent to
Furnas county, Nebraska, to aid the des-
titute settlers in that region. That por-
tion of Nebraska has been decidedly un-
fortunate during the past few years, and
the crops have been total failures, and
there is not sufficient wheat in the one
particular county to make bread for the
inhabitants, and the work of Mr.. Shearer
an old Nebraskan, is commendable, and
should meet with ready response in
Whitman county. Donations OF wheat,
-four, or other provisions, can be left
either with O. E. Young or VIM. Cham
bers, at the warehouses represented by
them, where receipts will be given for
the donation, and in proper time it will
help to drive the wolf of hunger from
some Nebraskan home.

EDUCATIONAL TEST PROPOSED
The Latest Plan of the Inmigra-
ton Restriction League.

An officer of the immigration Restric-
ton League, the headquarters of which
are in Boston, was intervied Monday re-
garding the latest statistics issued by the
immigration Bureau, showing a total
immigration of 1909 during the nine
months ending March 3lst, 1895, which
is decrease of about 1900 as compared
with the same period in 1894.
"Do you think that immigration will
increase again shortly?" asked the le-
porter.
"Undoubtedly, and in few years we
shall probably be receiving 300, 900 a year
again" was the reply.
"What plans for further legislation are
proposed by the League?"
"The League has prepared bill, which
will be introduced in Congress next win
ter, 1t debars from landing all persons
between fourteen and sixty years of age
who can not read and write English or
some other language, and raises the head
tax from 81 to $40. The educational
test embodied in this bill has now gener-
al support among the advocates of fur
ther restriction, as being rational, eff
fectice, simple and American measure.
The League has, through the courtesy of
the Commissioner and Assistant Com
missioner of immigration at the port of
New York, recently applied the reading
and writing test in the case of immi-
grants of various natioalities arriving at
Ellis Island and is perfectly satisfied
with it. If we add the educational test
to our present laws we shall keep out
most of the least desirable immigrants,
those who are the most ignorant, the
least capable of assimilation and the
most injurious economically and So

Drew 81 Salaries.

CHICAGO, May 13th.-A special grand
jury will probably make it very warm
for the men who have robbed the city of
81, 100000 or more by means of stuffed
pay rolls, Mayor Swift and Commission
er of Public Works Kent have held sever
al consultations during the past few days
with the States Attorney and the stuff
ing of pay rolls was the subject consid-
cred. 1t has been discovered that in the
23d and oath wards the name of eX-Sena-
tor John F. O'Malley has been on 81 pay
rolls, and Commissioner of Public
Works Eena says O'Malley has drawn
that number of salaries from the city
without having performed any labor. The
proceeds of the steal, it is charged, were
divided with various politicians of the
Hopkins Administration. O'Malley OBJ
tanned nOtoriety at last springs election
by shooting Hackman Shepherd and
murderously assaulting bartender in a
North Side saloon while on spree, and
he is now under indictment for these Of
fences,
