The league will be permanently organ

ed that little will be accomplished at
the first meeting outside the perman-
ent organization, and that the real
work of the league win be begun when
the executive board gets down to
work. Locally, 1t is the opinion that
the league should devote its attention
to advertising the state and inducing
people from other states to locate here.
OF course, there are many other mat
ters which may properly come before
the league, but its principal work, local
delegates say, should be to increase

THREE SUPREME
COURT OPINIONS.

The supreme court today handed
down three opinions affirming the judg-
ments of the lower courts in all three
instances. The first case was that OF

Of draft which defendant drew and

amount in the defendant bank for the
credit Of James Malloy Of Corinne.
Notice OF the deposit was enormously

ordered the bank to send him a draft
for the amount, which was done. Nal.
10y presented the draft for payment at
a Denver bank and after plaintiff had
endorsed Il by way Of Identification OF
MallOy the money was paid TO the lat
ter.
The ogden bank discovered Its mis-
take and stopped the payment OF the
draft In Nov York, The draft was then
protested by the New York bank and
returned to Denver, where the amount
OF the same was deducted from plain
tiff's bank account. Suit was then filed
by plaintiff to recover the above amount
from the ogden bank and judgment was
rendered IN his favor
This judgment is affirmed by the SUI
preme court, which holds that II was
nothing but carelessness which caused
defendant TO make such a mistake, as It's
officials were well acquainted with the
signature OF the right James Malloy,
