duction, in the legislature early in the
session M aJbiil to put private banks
under state supervision. The recent
unfortunate state of affairs revealed
by some of the private bank failures
is responsible.
The State Bankers association
which held it's convention at Daven-
port last summer, was willing to stand
for law which would require private
banks to make statements like state
and savings banks now have to to the
state and like national banks have to
make to the general government.
President Potter on a recent visit. to
the legislature said as much to the
members with whom he talked on the
subject. And with this understanding
Representative Head of Greene county
chairman of the house committee on
banking, started in to- preisare a bill
which require statements from these
concerns on call of the auditor of state.
Since then there has been very UNI
fortunate failure by the Cummings at
Mt. Ayr. This concern will not pay
out twenty-five cents on the dollar it
is reported The McCutcheon concern
at Holstein is also reported to- be in
very bad condition. The talk is SO
common about a law which will placa
private banks not only under the all
ditor to the extent Of requiring theN
to make statement, but also giving
the auditor the power to inspect, ex-
anime and pass on securities, that is
believed it will be introduced. If ia.
troduced, it is probable that it will
pass.

BAN ON PRIVATE MAILING CARDS
BEARING WORDS UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA.
Firms Having Stocks on Hand Allowed
Till July to Dispose of Them-New
Order Meets Approval of Local Off
cias.
Advertising and private mailing

Advertising and private mailing
cards bearing upon the address side
the words UNITED States of America"
are to be entirely excluded from the
United States mail after July /, 1904.
according to an order just received
from the postal officials by Postmaster
F. w. Wilson. This order has been
made necessary because of the decis-
ion of the law officers of the postal de-
partment that such cards are an in
fringement of the postal laws.
Owners of stocks of these cards
have been given until July to dis
pose of them and after that date no
card bearing the prescribed words
upon the address side of the card will
be accepted for no matter how much
postage it may bear.
Local postoffice officials say that
these cards have given them much
trouble. Manylof the cards have been
made to resemble the regular postal
card as nearly as possible. When these
are dumped into the postoffice in large
numbers it takes very careful work
on the part of the clerk to make sure
t that all of them carry the one cent
postage stamp due. Many of them
| because of their close resemblance to
| the regular card are allowed to pass
through without the necessary stamp.
''The order will meet with the hearty
approval of theyp ostoffice clerks at the
I Ottumwa Office" said sone of the boys
/ this morning.
1 The letter giving the order is as fol
| lows.
