outlawed National Bank Notes.

The financial world will be greatly
startled by decision just rendered in
Minnesota by a justice of the peace to
the effect that national bank bill is
outlawed and cannot be of any value
to anyone, and therefore cannot con-
sttute a good tender for a debt after
six years from its date. The opinion
of the learned justice states that the
law is to the effect that demand must
be made within six years in order to
preserve a cause of action on a de-
mand note, that the banknote is de-
mand note, and in the absence of proof
that payment thereof had ever been
demanded of the bank the note is out
lawed. Strange that no one thought
of it before.-Case and Comment.
