All literary clubs in Kenosha are
strongly urged to visit the Public

made to furnish them with suitable
material for their work. Cooperation
on the part of the clubs constitutes
one of the strongest elements in max

WHEN the tumult is subsidized and
the Republican press has ceased its
enComiums and the Democratic press
it's filings, Editor Usher's change of
policy will not seem SO remarkable
after all. In such times as these, when
national policies are changing and
party lines are in places badly broken
and almost ob1iterated, it is not Won
derfu1 that an honest and Independent
thinker should occasionally alter his
party allegiance. While it speaks
well for the Republican party and it's
tenets that man of Mr.. Usher's cali
Der has seen fit to accept them, it is
also a gratifying evidence that in
whatever party you choose to look you
will find an abundance of honest,
thoughtful men, with whom party is
not paramount, and to whom the coun-
try's interests are the first considera-
ton.

HAS HAD LITTLE EFFECT HERE.
Ruling of New York Clearinghouse
on Charging for Collecting.

SO far as can be learned, the new ruling
Of the New York Clearing House, as to
charging for the collection Of drafts and
checks drawn on banks in c,ics other
than those OF that immediate vicinity,
has had very little. If any, effect helc.
Indeed, the subject has not attracted
much attention in Richmond, though 1t j.
one of general interest, especially TO large
business houses and banking institutions.
For many years the New York banks
have been in the habit OF receiving for
deposit and collection from their GUS
toners checks drawn on interior banks
that Is, banks outside of New York city
at par charging no discount to cover the
cost Of collection. The pPeponderance OF
these checks came from small towns at
some distance, and the aggregate item or
collection has been an enormous one i'm
metropolitan banking circles.
The practice OF mailing individual
checks in payment of accounts has grown
10 large proportions In this country. Up
10 the time OF the recent ruling OF the
New York clearinghouse large mer-
chants were in the habit OF deposting
with thelg banks every day great numbers
Of checks. The bank would credit It's Gus
toner with the amount. and the customer
would in turn check against it. The re-
suit would be that the collection OF the
large number OF checks would tekc a
week or ten days the bank paying postage
on the separate checks when mailed 10
the banks from which they were drawn,
and receiving no interest on the money
they had paid out.
For the past two or three years several
efforts have been made TO put a stop to
the free system OF collection. These ef-
forts. owing 10 the competition among
the big banking establishments. all OF
whom were making bids for the deposits
OF the large merchants OF the city, proved
until recently.
The New York Clearing House, at its
meeting I'm March. decided To take imme-
date steps to save its members the costs
OF collections made for customers. The
was amended and the Clear
ing House Committee established new
rules. which all OF the banks OF New
York have 10 observe under heavy penal
ties. The banks as far. south OF New
York az Baltimore are exempt from the
OF the new rule, or are In terri
,orv indicated as discretionary. The
amended sections bearing on the subject.
