POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

The long talked of postal savings bank bill is now before congress. It embodies the plan outlined by Post master General Meyer in his annaul report and which he has advocated in public addresses as being calculated to encourage economy and thrift and to afford a place of deposit free from any possibility of doubt or suspicion for vast sums of money which might otherwise be hoarded and kept out of circulation through ignorance or lack of confidence.
 The bill authorizes the postmaster general to establish system of postal savings banks composed of such money order offices as he may desig- nate for that purpose
 Accounts may be opened and de posits made in any postal savings bank established under this act by any person of the age of ten years or over. in his own name and free from any control or interference by her husband. by trustee as such on be- half of another person, by a parent, guardian or other person for the ben

MORE THIRD TERM TALK.

Notwithstanding the often repeated statement of President Roosevelt that he will not accept another nomination for president there is persistent talk of a third term for the present execu- tive and much of this talk is coming from those who are very close to the president and his trusted friends. There seems to be a feeling among many republicans that Roosevelt is the only sure winner for their party this year and there is a general be- lief that should Roosevelt become convinced that Secretary Taft could not be nominated as his successor that he would step into the breach and take the nomination from Hughes, Fairbanks, Knox or Cannon.
 All who have studied the Roosevelt ian character will agree that he is a man who will not brook defeat and that he will go to desperate action in preventing it. Having decided upon Taft as his successor and the best man to carry forth his policies he would consider the defeat of Taft as downfall of his popularity in the country and this would not be very pleasant just as he is about to retire from his eight years service in the white house.
 Should the favorite sons and reac- tionaries succeed in puncturing the boom of Taft to the extent of making success for him doubtful no one need be surprised to see Roosevelt come out in scathing rebuke of his enemies in which he will agree to contine for another term as president
 And there is nothing sure about Taft being able to win the nomination. In many sections the favorite sons are developing strength, especially in the south and as the strength of a favorite son here and there is devel- oped we may expect to hear more andI more of the fayorite son.

eft of a child under ten years of age, or by any charitable or benevolent society or association: Provided, that no person or organization shall have more than one postal savings account, except that a trustee, parent, guardian or other person may have an individ- ual account and an account in his, rep resentative capacity for each person or child for whom he may be entitled to open an account" The bill further provides that such postal banks shall receive deposits of money in even dol lars, with s1 as a minimum, and post masters are required to make daily reports to the postmaster general, who will forward to the depositor a written acknowledgement of its re- ceipt. Deposits are not liable to seiz- ure or detention under legal processes against the depositors, and such funds are exempt from taxation, Interest at the rate of~2 per cent per annum is al lowed depositors and the postmaster general is authorized to place the money deposited in postal savings banks in national banks at a rate of interest satisfactory to the secretary of the treasury. These national de- positsries are to be in the immediate vicinity of postal banks, from which he money is drawn, as safeguard against standardization of currency and as a means of facilitating the return of money to the channels of trade. National banks are prohibited from receiving any compensation from cash ing or collecting any checks or other service in connection with postal banks. Withdrawals of deposits may be made at any time, subject to cer- tain regulations. The bill carries an appropriation of s1OO,O0o to give it effect.

THREE SUGAR MILLS
 FOR NEW MEXICO
Result of Co-0peration Of Railroad, Fanners-Manu-
 lecturers Is Announced.
Albuquerque JournaD


 At least three beet sugar factories for New Mexico are believed to be assured as a result of the work of representatives of the Holly Sugar company and the Santa Fe railway, aided by New Mexico farmers. It Is proposed to erect factories at Las vegas Springer and Bernalillo or Al buquerque. Albuquerque would be the much better location for a sugar factory in this part of the Rio Grande valley. and if the matter is 1oiIpwed up properly by this city there is every reason to believe she can se- cure one of the factories. The Las Yeas Optic says of the proposition
 Suar beet factories are practically assured or Las Yeas, Bernalillo and Springer next year. The Holly Sugar company, branch of. tine American Sugar company, and the Atchison, To peka and Santa Fe railroad system have combined in their efforts to se- cure this great boon or New Mexico, and from the plans already made the success of the great undertaking is already assured. The only condition iposed is thai from 200 to 250 aci CD of beets be successfully raised in each factory district during the com ing season, and if this is accomplished the work of erecting million dollar plants will be staFted this fall .
 Representatives of the sugar com pany, soil experts and represenrauves of the industrial department of the Santa Fe railroad with three or four automobiles. will begin the work Ur securing contracts at Springer about the middle of March They will work that territory completely and then come overland to Las Vegas. They will leave blank contracts with the secretaries of the Commercial and Las Vegas clubs and with the most prominent business men, and will then branch out through the sur rounding country in their automobiles and personally call on the leading farmers. When they have secured sufficient acreage here, well distri- buted in the various portions of the agricultural district, they will go to .Bernalillo and perform the same work at that place.
 It is the desire of tae sugar oen. men that large number of farmers | ldhc LNO tO lSA t1Sl9Co sCdNhS stead of raising large tracts. They want from fifty to seventy-five farm CTS interested in the raising of sugar beets for the reason that they desire a. large field before coming here. Al ter the factory is located they have no doubt that those who nave raised beets the year before win voluntarily increase their acreage. They want to teach people to raise beets.
 The beets should be planted some time in April. An expert will be fur nished, without expense to the peopls who will make his headquarters in this city. He will personally visit these raising beets and instruct them how to cultivate the crop at various times during the season, and will use every effort to see that their labors are crowned with success.
 The immense crop of beeets raised this year will not be lost, but excel lent returns will be received for the

REPUBLICANS MUST BEAR THE BLAME.

Correspondents for republican news. papers and editorial writers are al ready pointing out that Colonel Bryan will be estopped, should he be nomi. mated as the democratic candidate for president. from charging the republi. can candidate, whether he be Roose- welt or Taft, with blame for the pre- vailing empty dinner pails through out the country. These republican writers point to the fact that the poll
 cis of the republican president, which it is admitted has had something to do with the stoppage of some of the industries are the identical same poll cies which have been advocated by Bryan and which would be carried out by him if he was now president. We do not Believe Colonel Bryan would controvert this proposition, as a whole, but certainly he would ar raign the republican party for not calling T halt twelve years ago when it was pointed out in the democratic platform what would happen to this country if the republican policy of favoritism to the trusts and railroad combinations of the country was con tinued. The very thing predicted by Bryan in his first campaign for the presidency has now happened and the country, is in. the sIoughs of despond because of the favoritism shown cer- tain classes by the republicans. It will not do now for this party to say i've have seen the light pointed to by Bryan and the democratic party and it is our purpose to undo the wrongs
 which have been done the country"
 Should the republicans carry the country this year what hope have the
 people that legislation in he future will be different from that which this
 party has given the people in the past.
 President Roosevelt is not able to pass legislation for which he asks now and every measure which he has secured which had for its object the strengthening of the interstate com merce commission was made possible

by the help of the democrats in the senate.
 Will not the people. in case they agree that the intentions of Bryan are much the sane as those of Roose- welt, look to the man and his party who first advocated reforms in gov ernment and in the manner of con ducting the railroads and trusts of the country, rather than to risk the party which has for forty years stood pat for every evil, no matter how fla grant so long as the campaign pail was regularly filled when elections were approaching.

A GOOD SERVICE.
Large Audience Attended Meeting
at the Christian Church.

Although quite number OF the
men were at the court house saving
the country there was a fine ser
vice at the Main Street Christian
church last night. The congregation
al singing was particularly good and
Mr.. Mckinney sang in his own in
spring way the touching song,
Unanswered Yet" The sermon was
based on Acts 2:37 and Acts 7;54,
showing that the word of God,
faithfully presented to men always
convicts of sin but that all men do
not receive it alike-while some will
earnestly ask, Lord, what must l
do" others will stop their ears and
steel their hearts and barricade
themselves against the truth. The
work of conviction is Gods; that Of
acceptance or rejection is mans.
There will be baptizing at the Fri
day evening service.
Tonight there will be special mu-
sic, and the subject of the sermon
will be Wise or Foolish, which,

Great effort is being made to dis
tract the people from the real issue,
and there could be no better argu-
ment than this that those who are
called upon to defend Baileyism full
ly realize the weakness of their
own side. Senator Bailey is strong
personality and we do not blame his
followers for attempting to substi-
tute him for the questions involved.
But is this the best way to settle this
whole matter? If the principles in
volved are wrong, and a great many
democrats contend that they are,
contentious will never be quieted un-
tile the issue as represented by
these principles is squarely met,
Senator Bailey is an individual and
a strong man, but those things which
he has done and promises to contin-
ne to do and which are disapproved
of by democracy, strike at the very
foundation of the party.

was because he stood by his friends,

his friend, the Waters-Pierce Oil
