ARE OFFICIALS
ABLE TO QUALIFY?

Bismarck, N. D.. Dec. 1S.-In con-
nection with the division of Mclean
county one of the largest counties I'm
the state. from which twenty eight
townships were segregated and created
as Sheridan county by a vote of the
people at the last election, an interest
ing question arises as to the status OF
several county officers, whose residence
is In the territory set apart for the
new county, and who were elected off,
GERS of Mclean county at the same
election by which county division car
ried.
The question affects four or f1ve of
the most important officers of the
county. including the sheriff and coun-
ty superintendent of schools, who were
chosen officers Of Mclean, but are and
have been residents of the territory
now included in Sheridan county. The
question that arises Is whether they
can qualify as officers of the old coun-
ty Of, Mclean or whether the fact that
they have ben residents of the east
end" which is not included i'm Sheri-
dan county. will disqualify them from
acting as officers of Mclean county.
The question is an entirely new one
in the state and is likely to be brought
TO the supreme court for decision.

An Earlier Story.
Grand Forks. N. D., Dec. 15.--About
sixteen insurgent republican members
of the next legislature met here in
Normanden this morning for the pur-
pose of laying plans for organizing
the house. Invitations had been sent
out by the secretary of he committee
but it seems that only a few cared to
participate in the conferences.

chosen chairman Of the meeting and
b. G. Sknlason of this city was elected
chairman Following a general dis
cussion as to the best plans to be
adopted in attempting to organize the
lower body Of the legislature, 1t was
practically decided to appoint a steer
ing committee. This steering com
mittee will visit Bismarck a week be-
fore the legislature convenes and try
to line up the insurgents in an effort
to organize the house along the same
lines as those adopted two years ago.
The meeting adjourned at noon ;E:atil
o'clock when It Is expected the steer

GOLD COINS.
Why Bankers Don't Like Them and
Prefer to Handle Paner

Why Bankers Don't Like Them and
Prefer to Handle Paper.
"Of the different kinds of American
money now in circulation the gold
coins of all denominations are the most
disliked in my business" said promi-
nent New York banker
stake greenback, silver or a gold
certificate or national bank note to
your bank and it is received and plac-
ed to your credit without a moments
delay. Not SO with gold. A few days
ago a gentleman brought to our bank
upward Of $4,000 in gold Of different
denominations and was much provoked
because we would not receive it and
give him s1edit with the amount the
face of the coin represented. This we
could not do because the law requires
that gold shall be redeemed only at its
actual value. Coins carried in the
pocket for any length of time naturally
lose something by abrasion-probably
but fractional part Of cent on ten
dollar piece. but it is loss neverthe
less-and therefore bankers cannot give
credit for gold deposits until the coin
shall have been weighed. In the case
mentioned my friend took his gold to
the subtreasury and was compelled to
wait there nearly an hour before he
could get notes for it.
''Every coin had to be passed through
the scales. and after the weighing proc
ess had been completed three Of the
coins-two five dollar pieces and ten
dollar piece-were returned to him as
short in weight. Before returning short
| weight coins the department stamps on
the face Of each coin a cross. The
owner is either left to send the coins to
the United States mint for redemption
or again put them into circulation.
Eventually the coins with crosses on
their faces will go to the mint and be
redeemed at their actual value. In
many instances there may not be more
than several cents shortage on $50
| worth Of coins. Business men, how
ever, naturally object to the inconven-
fence and get rid Of their gold as fast
as possible."-New York Press.
