UNCLE SAM OVERPAYS
BIG TRUNK LINES

Washington, D. c., June %
Many of the big trunk lines are be-
ing largely overpaid by the govern
ment for carrying the mails. A saw
ing of about 100000 can be eff
fected without doing injustice to the
transportation companies. Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock said this ey-
ening following an investigation:
THE inquiry brings out the fact
that of the 394 companies reported
on, 27S are making profits from
mail transportation while 116 are
mourning losses. The rate of profit
and loss varies widely with different
companies.
The Investigation which has in
volved a vast amount of work, was
instituted by Mr.. Hitchcock under
authority granted by an old statute
that had never been effectively en-
forced. The railways were never be-
fore required to disclose the cost OF
carrying passengers and express, as
well as the mails.
In readjusting the compensation
of railways for mail transportation
in conformity with the conditions
shown by the inquiry it will be nee
essary to increase the pay of certain
lines that are now carrying the
mails at a loss while reducing the
compensation Of the systems that are
making unreasonable profits from
this service. BY making such read
justment on basis OF 6 per CEN
profit to all railways carrying thu
mails 1t will be possible to save tn.
government approximately $4,000.
900 year.
This will pave the way still fur

THE POSTAL SAVINGS
SYSTEM IN MINING TOWNS

1t is interesting to note the pat
ronage of the postal savings system
in mining towns in which is has
been established, says the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal. The SER
vice was inaugurated on Jan. 3,
1911, one postoffice in each state
and territory being selected; the
system is being extended to other
cities as rapidly as practicable. and
it is expected that in time practically
every money order postoffice will be
designated as a savings depository
office. Up to March 81, 1911, 4S de-
pository Offices had been establish
ed; at the head of this list stand
three mining towns, Leadville, Ana
conda and Globe, holding the record
both for the total amount of depos-
it's and for the average balance per
depositor. Globe, Ariz., had the
highest average balance per deposi
tor, $S7.15, with a total deposit of
$15,339. Leadville, with popula-
ton of 1903, according to the last
census, had the largest amount on
deposit, $34,679, and an average
balance of 1922 per depositor.
In contrast with this it may be
noted that Rutherford. N. j.. town
of 7.O45 people, had on deposit only
s1.4S5, or an average of s17.6S per
depositor. Cohoes, N. Y, city of
$4,000, had on deposit only $1,O54,
or an average of SIT per depositor.
The average balance per depositor
was uniformaly high in the Offices
established in mining centers. Some
of these may be of interest. The av-
erage balance at Anaconda, Mont,
was $73.57; Carson City, New,
s67.63; Pittsburg, Kas., $500;
Johnson City, Tenn, $57.S5; Dubois,
Pa, $3S.40; Oroville, Calf, $3.50;
Couer d. Alene, Idaho, 1886;
Deadwood, S. D., $44.19. The aver
age balance per depositor for all Of
fees was $46.S9, from which it will
be seen that the mining towns have
as a whole, appreciated the estab-
lishment of the postal savings sys-
tenn more than the industrial cen.
tiers.

Redfeld. June "a peculiar
situation exists in this (Spink)
county with reference to the saloon,
license question. At recent meet
ing of the board of county commits
sioners, which is made up of men
who personally are opposed to sal
oons. the board, on a techicality. re-
jected the bonds of the retail liquor
dealers in towns within the bound
aries of the county which at the
spring elections had declared in ia
vor of license. The town boards
had approved the bonds, but without
the approval of the county commits
sioners the saloons cannot do bust
ness after July 1. The liquor in
terests have carried the matter to
the state supreme court, but it is
hardly believed probable that a de-
cision can be rendered before July
l, the time being too short If the
supreme court sustains the action of
the county commissioners it doubt
/ less would result in numerous sal
oons being put out of business in
other counties of the state, as CON-
paratiyely few of the boards are
made up of men who favor saloons
and on technicalities they could re-
ject the bonds of the liquor deal
ers. Regardless of this possibility,
| if the supreme court sustains the
action of the county commissioners
in this case, there will be no saloons
in Sphinx county during the coming
two years.
