sition upon the people by issuing rev.
enue stamps to unauthorized dealers,
Mr.. Hammond has drafted a bill to
be presented before the next legisla-
ture, the provisions of which are in
tended to correct this alleged evil.
According to the provisions of the
proposed law, every one who applies
for a United States liquor stamp

nue. department for such a stamp,
declare for what purposes he intends

prima facie evidence of it's posses
sion by the person. A failure on the
part of any applicant for a stamp or
holder of such stamp to file a state
ment or any false statement shall be
punished by fine of not less than
$500 or more than $1,000 or by i'm
prisonment in the county Jail not

Making up for Past Economy.
The average amount per mile spent
by the railways of the United States
for maintenance of ways and struc.
lures in 1907 was $3.50. In 1908 It
was only s1,423 and In 1909 it was
only s1,336
These figures show that during
the period OF depression following the
panic of 1907 the amount of money
spent for maintenance of way and
structures was not sufficient to keen
the roads In good physical condition.
and they are now forced not ONLY to
spend enough adequately to maintain
the properties but also enough In adj
dition to make good the deterioration
that took place during the period of
depression.
IT Is quite true that there has been
large increase In expenditures for
maintenance, but 1t has not been as
large relatively as the figures given
to the newspapers indicate.
