the currency show that the national
banks are now glutted with money.
The rate on "call loans in New
York is less than three per cent.
But more significant than the rate
on "call loans is the fact that all
the national banks are now climbing
over one another to retire their bank
note circulation. The law forbids
the retirement of this circulation on
any rate more rapid than $4,000, 900
a month. This limit has been reach
ed in applications for February,
March and April.
Attention has been called in
some quarters to the sudden in
crease in our exports. For January,
1905. they were S2O6.OOO, 900, as COM
pared with SIS9,OO0.0O0 in January
of 1907 December exports were
also $17,O00,Oe above the previous
December.
This is a healthy and good con-
dition, but it does not necessarily
indicate prosperity at home. on the
contrary it means that the home
market does not absorb the manu-
factures and they are forced to look
abroad for a market.
corresponding to the increase in
exports Is decrease in imports. In
December imports dropped to S92,-
GOO, 900. as compared with $134,O00,-
coo in December of the previous year
and i'm January to $S6.O00.OOO as
compared With S127.0OO.OOO of the
year before. Which means that the
scarcity of money during those
months found its reflection i'm the
smaller amount Of goods bought
abroad. of course this decrease af-
fected the tariff revenues Of the gov
eminent.
Merchants and manufacturers
We're holding orders and waiting to
see what would happen. In the
course of 60 days more it viii be
seen that confidence has largely re-
turned and that orders have even
now commenced to go forward.

GENERAL bUS|-
NESS |SON THE
UPGRADE
Railroad Revenues Show In.
CredSe.FirStIndiCdt In
General Good Times.

Washington. ID. c., March 5.-Bus-
mess is on the upgrade. Railroad
revenues have begun to improve.
For the first time since the panic
struck in November have there been
any figures in the government re-
ports forecasting an early return
OF prosperity. Now there are such
figures. The improvement In railroad
earnings is undeniable.
Experts in railroad accounts have
one figure which they watch as in
dicating the run Of railroad busi-
ness. This figure is the total op-
Grating revenue" i'm proportion to
the total number of miles oper-
ated." Long experience has shown
that the normal" revenue of "A
railroad is about $1,000 a mile.
Thus the normal return of the
222,000 miles of railroad. making
reports to Washington, would be
$222, 100000. If the total operating
revenue shows larger than this the
month is an abnormally good month.
If it is less the month is an abnorm.
ally poor month.
Thus the month of October, 1907,
was an abnormally good month,
and the total operating revenue of
90 900 miles of road reporting was
$24S.000,O0O.
The month of November showed
the effects of the panic: but not the
full effects. For that month 221,-
600 miles OF road reporting showed
$2lS,000,000 revenue.
Then came December with the
worst returns namely 1SS,000 miles
Of road reporting $157,0OO,OOO rev.
enue.
The reports for January are not
all in, but enough mileage is at hand
to show that the January revenues
instead of decreasing, have begun to
pick up. The percentage of i'm
provement will probably be found to
be considerable when the returns are
all available. But the main thing is
that the turning point has been
passed, and the revenues are on the
upgrade.
Conditions Good.
All of which is of the highest
importance in view of the fact that
railroad officials are threatening to
reduce wages, alleging decreased re-
turns as the impelling cause for such
decreases.
Another very important indica-
tion of the condition of business
is the cheapening of money. Re-

PROPOSED new GAME LAW

er data as will make such purchases
traceable, and failure to do so is
punishable by fine of s2j.
The proposed law provides that
the state game warden shall receive
salary of s2,500 per annum and all
necessary travelling expenses and his
assistants shall receive $500 and
ne ssary expenses. Deputy game
wardens are to be appointed in each
county and shall receive $500 per
day and expenses while engaged in
actual service. In cases where 1t is
necessary to appoint special wardens
TO see that the law Is enforced, 1t
Is provided that the wardens shall
receive one-half of the fines assess
ed against the persons against whom
the warden makes the complaint
1t becomes the duty of every coun.
~ peace officer to assist In the pro
lection of the game under the new
law
1t is quite likely that in what
was formerly known as Indian Ter
ritory the game warden will have
a hard time enforcing the game law.
There is large Indian population
and they live largely in the rough
mountain country where there are
,ots of game and the streams are
iull OF fish. The Indian regards It
his inalenable right to hunt and
fish when and where he pleases.
and he has never heard of a law
that would prohibit 1t. Added to
this is the fact that in such coun-
ties, a majority of the county Off
cials are of Indian extraction and
their sympathies will not be strong
ly in favor of the enforcement Of
this law. In such places the game
warden will have to depend largely
upon special deputies.

J. s. Agnew, state game warden
of Oklahoma, has drafted new
game law which he will have intro
duced for passage by the state leg
islature at Its present session that
contains many radical changes from
the old Oklahoma law. and which
will bring delight to those sports
men who would like to see the game
and fish of the new state properly
protected.
This proposed bill provides that
1t will be unlawful to kill deer,
pheasants or antelope, or molest
them in any manner for a period OF
five years. 1t shortens up the quail
season from the present law thirty
days, making the opening season
from November | to February /. in
stead OF from October to February.
1t is further provided that no one
person will be allowed TO kill more
than fifteen quail in any one day.
A hunters license is provided which
requires the hunter to make appli-
cation to the county clerk ana pay
fee of sl.25. In case of non
resident of the state, the hunters
fee is s250O, and such a permit also
the state with bag not to include
more than fifty quail, and his bag
must he open to inspection at any
time. Possession of game will be pri-
ma facie evidence of the hunter hay-
ing killing same.
Another provision of great inter
est Is that for the protection of
fish. The proposed law prohibits the
killing of fish, taking them in nets,
seins. traps or any device whatever,
except with rod and line. though
exceptions are made for the Arkan-
sas. Cimar,On, Canadian and Salt
Fork streams. 1t has long been a
custom of the Indians to kill all of
the fish they wanted with gigs. dy-
Mantle, or to poison them, and for
this reason many of the best fish
ing streams of the state have been
depleted of fish. The Indians are
especially adept with the gig and
they can kill fish the year round.
II Is no trouble for them to take
boat and gig and kill great piles
of fine bass in the clear streams Of
Oklahoma. The new law, II pass
ed, will prohibit this. and the hidden
tally means that the fishermen who
fish with a real and rod will soon
be able to find fine sport In all the
old Indian Territory streams. To en-
Tor @ such law will be infinitely
better than to try to restock the
streams.
There is a provision which impos-
es fine of not more than 5000 nor
less than $50 on any person who
game killed within the state. and
the provision against transporta-
tion companies taking game out of
the state is extremely drastic. No
person is allowed to hunt upon the
public highways of the state.
To prevent the use of dynamite
or other explosives commonly used
in killing fish, 1t Is provided that
every dealer In such explosives shall
keep a record of the name of the
person purchasing same. the date
and amount purchased and such 9th
