land mail, with three rural de-
livery routes, besides the con-
stantly increasing local mail
makes it imperative that the gov
eminent provide a suitable and
convenient building for the trans
action of it's business. We un-
derstand that the matter has been
fully discussed with the postof-
fee department before this time
and Congressman Gambler will
secure the building if it is posi-
BILE to do SO.
Another bill which Mr.. Gambler
has introduced is one to regulate
railroad rates which will doubt
less receive favorable consider
alton from all who are really in
terested in the matter of solving
this vexed question, which is
now one of the vital questions
before the country While the
republicans have promised to up
hold the president and follow his
suggestions in the way of regula-
ting: rates, we do not look for a
scramble on that side to see who
will be foremost in pressing this
matter. There is always a way
of silencing the republican party
when the interests of great cor
porations are at stake, and after
the lobbyists of the roads reach
Washington we do not expect te
hear much of rate legislation un-
less it comes from the democrat
ic side.

Reports from all over the state
would indicate that business has
not been satisfactory in the dry
goods, clothing, shoes, furniture
and other lines of mercantile
business. 1t has been a problem
to many merchants to explain the
cause of the dull season in their
respective lines. Large stocks
were purchased, based on the
high price of cotton, but the
goods have not been sold. To
one who has kept up pretty well
with what is going on in the
country it is an easy matter to
tell where the country people
are putting their money. Inc
banks show the largest savings
accounts ever known before;
land sales at the highest price
are taking place daily and new
residences are being erected o.
almost every hilltop and in every
valley in the state. The desire
to establish credit of a high order
to improve their homes, and ke-
yond every thing else to own a
home, has seized upon the people
from one end of the state to the
other, and the old time practice
of spending the money before it
is made, has become a thing OF
the past. The merchants Will
find in the economy of the people
the surest and safest road to
their prosperity and his own sue
cess. Their is plenty of money
in the country and during the
next few months there will be a
smooth volume of trade for
those things the people must
have, and the merchant must
bid his time and keep expenses

DRAWS NINETY DAYS
Benner Gets Workhouse Sen.
tenCe for Business Methods

E. c. Benner ST. Mound street, an
Insurance agent, arrested some time
ago by Detective Murnane of the CEN
trail station on the charge of passing
worthless checks, received a straight
80 day sentence at the workhouse yes
terday at the hands of Judge Finehout.
Benner had fairly flooded the city with
worthless checks but owing to his dat
ing them a few days ahead it was i'm
possible for the police to secure q
charge against him.
He was finally arrested charged with
passing a worthless check on AXel
landmark, a saloon keeper. H. Keller,
attorney for Benner, tried to prove that
the check which was dated March 9
was cashed by landmark on March z,
but several witnesses testified that
March 8 was the correct date. But for
the fact that Benner dated his checks
ahead he would have been certified to
the district court where he would have
had to face a penitentiary sentence,
but according to the law a check dated
ahead of time is simply a promissory
note.
Benner at one time had small
amount of money in the American
Savings bank, but drew it out Feb. 49,
Since that time he has been constantly
engaged in writing checks on the
American bank. Benner did not take
kindly to a workhouse sentence and
when placed under the charge of Phil
Gibbons, the court officer requested
Gibbons to change his uniform for a
suit of citizens clothing before leaving
for the workhouSe
