COAL BIDS RECEIVED AND
REFERRED TO The COUNCIL

Bids for furnishing Il cargo of coal
for the city were received last evening
by the board OF public works. Two
proposals were submitted, one being
from the Peoples Fuel company, the
other from the Portage Coal and Dock
company, but no action was taken In
the way of recommending the accept
ance of either, the whole matter being
referred to the council for disposition.
The board voted to ask permission
of the council to purchase two thous-
and feet of cast iron pipe and fittings
also a considerable quantity of six-inch
and eight-inch pipe which are required
TO connect the city water system with
the new electric pump.
The matter of enforcing the regula-
lions relative to the use of hose and
sprinklers was discussed again at con-
siderable length and ii was decided to
send n man around to warn house
holders and water users to comply
with the rule restricting the use of
sprinklers to certain hours daily. The
shutting off of the water supply will be
the alternative for failure to comply
This action is felt to be necessary
owing to the great amount of water
that is being used for sprinkling pur-
poses this summer, and which it Is
feared may result in a shortage of wa
ter unless restricted.

POSTAL BANKING
STARTS JULY |
PROPOSED NEW SYSTEM TO BE
STUDIED CAREFULLY BEFORE
GOVERNMENT ACTS TO
MOVE CAUTIOUSLY.

A Washington dispatch says: Uncle
Sam does not intend to be big banker
i'm haste. He will look over the field,
and before his postal savings bank ip-
stitution assumes giant proportions he
will try to learn proper constructive
methods. President Taft realizes that
as far as this country Is concerned the
postal savings bank business is an ex-
pertinent. Precaution is the word.
Start Banks July I.
During the fiscal year which begins
July 1 it is the governments intention
to spend 100000 on the beginnings of
postal banking. A board OF trustees
will be brought into existence. The
members will be the postmaster gen
eral, the secretary of the treasury and
the attorney general. 1t will be their
duty to designate the postofflces which
shall be given rank as repositories.
The legislation as originally present
ed to congress made repositories of
every money order office and such
other offices as the postmaster general
might name. 1t was decided that this
was giving too much power to one man
and the closer the study of the bill by
the administration the more apparent
repositories should be the concern Of
the full board of trustees.
Until the board of trustees takes
action IL is impossible to say how
many repositories will be designated
at t':c outset 1t is the intention Of
the postmaster general and his cabinet
colleagues to make close study of the
situation before reaching a decision.
Where Banks Will be Located.
The probabilities are that at first 20
postofflces i'm each state, the offices In
the larger cities to be included in the
list, will be made repositories, and that
for experimental purposes few post
Offices i'm smaller communities also will
be designated
After the repositories are establish
ed In the great cities n month or two
will tell the story II is believed that
foreigners i'm New York. Chicago. ST.
Louis and the other big cities will take
their money from its private hiding
places to give it into the keeping of
Uncle Sam.
Test in Courts is Expected.
The thought seems to be general
among the lawmakers that sooner or
later the courts will be called upon to
decide the constitutlonalty of the pos
tai savings bank law. II is contended
by the officials who doubt the laws
constitutionality that to establish de-
positories to receive the peoples mon
ey and to pay interest on it it Is not
government function, and that no ex-
pressed or implied authority can be
found for it in the constitution.
No one seems to be able to suggest
the class of individuals or the class OF
corporations that may bring the law
to test. 1t Is probable that its work
ing will be watched for while, and IL
il does not i'm any way disturb the
equilibrium of banking or any other
business 1t may be that the courts VIII
not be approached.

expense thus involved was entirely
needless and added to the cost or the
manufacture product an altogether
artificial element. The South can
manufacture cotton goods more eco
nomlcally than any other section. and
hence can sell them more cheaplv.
This will eventually mean an all
round gain.
1t IS one of the anomalies of Amer
lean history that the New England,
instead of the Southern, States snouIu
have become the cotton mill center
OF the Western world. Get his fact is
no so remarkable when 1t IS reInem-
bered that from the earliest colonial
days dlmOS every circumstance of
New England life tended to develop
Industry. whereas every circumstance
Of Southern life tended to develop ag-
riculture.
There has always however, been
something contrary to nature In ship
ping cotton a THOUSAND miles, or many
thousand miles, from the soil where
it grows to New England or old Eng
land to have it manufactured Sucn h
condition was bound to change and
now the full sweep of the change
seems in progress. There Is every
indication that the South will become
the great cotton mill enter of the
world.

The SOuth's Cotton Mills.
(Atlanta

o'"i nal
Mr.. David Clark. editor OF the Tex
ule manufacturer, has complied a
directory Of Southern cotton mills. A
decade or so ago such a directory
would have resembled the famous
chapter on snake in the history of
lreland-there would have been no
mills to mentions; certainly there
would have been very few.
But today, as Mr.. Clark's publica-
ton shows, there are seven hundred
and eighty mills in the South. They
represent nearly twelve million spfnd
les, two hundred and fifty-three thou
sand looms and more han two hun
dred million dollars of capital stock.
Such a showing is significant and
principally SO for this fact: II tndi-
Gates the South's recitation of the
law that. as a rule, raw material ear
be manufactured best and most
cheaply in the region where it IS pro-
duced. Where cotton is grown, there
it should be spun. Yet for a hundred
years h South shipped its cotton to
England and to Europe and then
bought 1t back again as MANUFACTURE
ed articles.
This mean costly waste not only to
our own people, but to the rest OF the
world as we'll. The transportation
