THE PosToFFicE.

Postmaster Ross again comes To the
front as a demonstration of the growth
and development of Missoula: he has
been doing this sort of thing very reg
ularly for three or four years. The
postal department statement published
yesterday morning in The MissnElian.
showed that the business of the Mis-
ssula postoffice has increased in a year
almost one fourth. In this division.
there are but two offices which make
a better showing than Missoula. One
of these is Seattle. where the .xposi
zion gave n boom to the postoffice
trade: tn. other is boise. Idaho. Of
the 1rst-class offices in Montana not
one reached the percentage OF gain
which Missouia attained. The busi-
ness of the postofficc is as good a ba =
rometcr as can BE- found of the condi-
tian of the city: the showing which
Mr.. Ross makes is positive evidence Of
the increase which has taken place in
the commercial activity Of the city.
Added to this is the statement that the
Western Unions business in Mlssoula
Is five times what il was four years
ago. And the railways add their testi-
mony to the evidence already sub
mittnd.

STATUTES OF LIMITATION May Be Imposed By
 State. DECISION OF JUSTICE sAYRE Need Not Have Application to Itself
 or Officers The Case is That ef the ssate AEsiast Issdsre Biey of sfArenso Coaa- ty, In which DIscriminatioa
 Was Alleged.

l That the State. as a sovereign body.
 may impose statutes of limitation
 which have no application to itself. or
 its oficers, but to. which the citizens are amenable. was the opinon of Jus
 tice sayre of the Supreme Court. in upholding the constitutionaiity of Sec ton 3s7ssof the Code of 1896. against Q
 decision of invalidity by the Circuit Court of Marengo County. | The statute provides that citizens ar e given five days in which to appeal from a decision of the Commissioners Court relative to taxes. while the Tax Com missioner, as an officer of the State, is given ten days.
 The issue was brought to the notice of the Supreme Court through the case
 of the State against Isidore Bley. Bley contended. In the Marenxo Court. that the statute entailed discrimination. and was therefore unconstitutional. The court sustained him. thus rendering the inference of uuconstttutionality. Jus tice sayre. however. reversed the lower cours
 Bley had been ordered. by the Tax Commissioner of Marengo. to assess for of the Demopolis National Bank. Bley refused. declaring that the stock had already been assessed The Commits sionsrs upheld him.
 The Tax Commissioner appealed to the Circuit Court of Marengo, demand ing that Bley be required to assess the stock. The attorneys for Bley entered the plea of unconstitutionaiity of the statute which gave the Tax Commos- sioner Ave days more latitude than 1t gave the citizen. urging discrimination The Circuit Court concurred.
 But the Supreme Court, through Judge Sayre, holds that the State is g sovereign body. and can enact such statutes Of limitation. by which 1t Is not barred, while the citizen. on the other hand. is barred. In his opinion he says:
 "The argument is that the State may not discriminate between parties. The full force of the argument must be con- eeded in its application to causes be- tween citizens. But the Tax Commits sioner was proceeding as an officer of the State and in the interest Of the State in the exercise of the highest at- tribute of sovereignty. the imposition of taxes.
 Tn pursuance of the principle that the soveregn can do no wrong. appii- cable to republican forms of govern rnent, 1t has always been held that the State may deny it's remedies to sloth- ful persons having grievances, and 90 secure the repose of society by the en- actment of statutes of Limitations by wbich if is not itself bound unless by It's own express consent. Nullum tenn pus occurrit reEf.
 '"rhe State might have committed the limitation against itself entirely. There Is still less ground for complaint against what 1t did"

WEATHER CoNpITToNs.

Generally fair weather has prevailed and now continues in the cotton belt and along the Atlantic coast though cloudiness has increased in the South, under the influence of an extensive low pressure area, the center of which is moving eastward over Missouri This disturbance has caused very general rains over the central and middle districts with snow along the northern border and over the north slope of the rockies. It has also induced higher temperatures from the Gulf coast northward to the lake region and brisk to high winds at some interior and Lake stations. An area of high pres sure. moving in over Oregon is giving fair weather in the far west and southwest, with lower temperature throughout the Rocky Mountain and Plateau regions.
 Conditions now favor partly cloudy weather In Alabama during tonight and Friday.
