Transmississippi Stamps Exhausted In
the Treasury Department
The Mississippi two-cent postage
stamps have proved so popular that the
United States treasury department il un-
abs to meet the demand, and all orders
from postmasters have been Cancelled for
the present. Tho supply In tho local office,
OF that denomination, lie entirely exhaust
ed, and ali order has been sent to the
department for a new lot. which, accord
Ing to advices received yesterday. is net
likely to be filled at present. An order
has again been issued reiterating what has
been said several times that the Trans
Mississippi series 10 not intended to dis
place the ordinary stamps and that both
kinds are received for postage.
From some Misunderstanding in the
minds Of the public 1t is necessary also to
state once more that postage stamps and
revenue stamps are not interchangeable
and each II used for its own purpose.
Letters mailed with revenue stamps at
tached are held for postage just the same
as though there were no stamps on them.
Mistakes of this character are constantly
repeated. to the confusion and detention of
mails.
By late ruling OF the department, rev.
enue stamps are not necessary on checks
signed officially by postmasters.

ter G. Wright and J. McGlynn. were ap-
pointed to prepare a constitution and by
laws.
Mayor Snyder was present, and made
men for their action and earnestness in
advancing the cause Of Democracy, and
made few timely suggestions for the new

citation cannot be built up among the
younger Democrats OF Los Angeles, and
judging by the spirit and activity dis
played at last nights meeting. the Young
Mems Democratic league will, in few
weeks, number thousand members.
Social features will be prominent in the
new league; desirable quarters will be
speedily obtained. and all earnest young
Democrats Of every age are asked to join
and render whatever aid they can to the
