ment of Justice is pursuing with vigor its
policy of urging TO a final determination

the constitutlonality OF the law, which, in
effect. prohibits railroads from owning and
operating coal mines, has passed through
its several stages to the supreme court,
whence a decision is expected very soon.

bacco company and others is now before
the supreme court of the United States on
a cross appeal. the government appealing
from the decision Of the lower court, dis

The old boards in charge of the colleges
have resolved upon closing up their busi-

the old board will not make use of any of

Systematise State Business.
In accordance with plans made by Sec
rotary of State Hayward many months
ago the state win soon adopt a system
of better accounts for the employees and
agents who are compelled to travel. An
account book will be furnished every per-
son entitled to travel at state expense
and in this will be entered the items OF
expense from day to day so hat a com
plete record may be had. The most ex-
tensive travellers of the state are the
board of control and the railroad com
mission. They expend a large amount OF
money IN travelling over the state on Of
fetal business. Next in Importance Is the
! food and dairy department. whose ipspec-
tors do a great deal Of travelling. and the
mine inspectors, factory inspectors and
others, do a great deal of travelling. The
plan was worked out last year and blanks
are being prepared 50 that there will be
uniformity in this matter. The state now
has a law requiring duplicate vouchers for
all bills against the state. so that the
four state officers whose duty II is To
audit all bills will have all facts as 10
expense before them. This. with the new
plan OF having the per diem charged in
parts Of a day. the day being divided into
hours, II is believed viii greatly lessen
the expense Of state government.
