Postal Savings System.

A notable financial feature OF 1911 is
the successful Inauguration OF postrl
savings System, which was started in
January Of last year with one such in
stitution in each State. So successful
was the experiment that 5,1s5 such Of
fees we're established, and now 10000
fourth-class offices, doing money or.
der business, are TO be designated as
repositories for postal savings. In se-
lecting Dostotiices as repositories, only
those which have record for efficiency
are chosen, ard the accounts OF the de-
positors are kept by the local offices and
not by the department in Washington.
This method differs from the system
followed In Great Britain, where the
accounts OF every depositor are kept in
the central Office. and a great economy
results from this innovation.
Postal savings deposits have kept
pace with the extension OF the system.
Amounting at the end OF the first month
to only s60,252 in the forty. eight ex-
perimental offices, they increased in n
half year to s77s,3l0 and now, after
one years operation, have reached a
total OF nearly $l5 100000.
Tais large sum has been distributed
among 200 National and State banks,
and 1t is expected that before the end
OF the fiscal year on June 80, next. that
the total deposits will have advanced
Ao,0Uo,0oo or SOC, 100000. When this
point has been reached the profits will
be sufficient to meet the entire cost of
the system. 1t is calculated that the
moneys thus received represent pre-
vious hoardings and were not taken
from previous deposits in banks
Many patrons of the system deposit
the full amount permitted under the
law, 800 in each calendar month, until
the maximum balance of $500 is reached
On July l, 1911, the first issue of
postal savings bonds occurred, and the
amount OF deposits thus converted d was
SAL 300 or the first issue OF bonds, So
per cent was in registered form. show
ing conclusively that the intention of
the purchasers was to retain the bonds
for permanent Investment and not to
use them, for speculative purposes. De-
positors of the system have applied for
s4l6,e20 of the second issue OF bonds
OF this amount. 1912 ,4so was in the reg
istered class American Banker.

Last Move Until Bond Issue
Election is Held.

Promoters OF the Oklahoma North
western railroad will not make another
move until the bond question is set
tied in Oklahoma City.
That was substantially the statement
OF John w. Shartel, the moving spirit
Of the proposed railroad from Oklaho-
ma City TO Woodward, when asked
yesterday IL any other cities along the
proposed route had been asked 10 put
up bonuses.
"The delegation from Watonga was
notified not 10 come at the present
time" said Mr.. Shartel "other towns
also were notified to hold up for the
present"
IL was learned at the office OF Mr.
Shartel that the proposed road will
open up new territory in the entire
western part Of Oklahoma for the rea-
son that the Wichita Falls K North
western railroad is rapidly completing
work OF its extension from Hamon, in
Roger Mills county, to Woodward and
from Woodward northwestward to
Liberal, Kan. The steel work has all
been laid from Elk City northward to
the Canadian river, according to in
formation given out at the Office Of the
Carnahan Empioympnt agency, and
steel gangs have been transferred to
Woodward. from which point they are
laying tracks in southwark direction
TO the river, which is about midway
between Woodward and Elk City. 1t
was said the recent bad weather had
caused a suspension of track laying and
construction work on the $4,000 mile
long bridge, but all work, according 20
report, is now in operation. This
means that everything will be rushed
until Woodward sees the first train
from the south on the Wichita Falls &

The Best Policy.

The young fellow who gets the idea
into his head that he can get any where
by being crooked, might just as well
make an assignment OF his success in
life at once, Ii can't be done. There
is never n session of district court that
this theory Ia not exploded. You can't
pick up daily paper but what you see
the downfall Of some maj, who thought
he could make some easy money !"
There is absolutely nothing to be
gained by being crooked. Every town
has its crooked men, and every one
OF them has label on his back that
can be seen for nine blocks. The num-
ber of crooked men who succeed in the
long run ia always in the scattering
column. Every closet in the crooked
mans house contains d grinning skel-
eton. Around every corner the crook
ed man must pass on his daily walk,
stands a ghost. The only person
crooked man fools is himself. You can
search the world over again and the
one bright and shining motto that
looms up at all stages of the game is
contained in these few words: "Hon-
esty is the best policy. Bert Walker.

That Heating Plant.

When the city put in a heating
plant many business houses took out
their old plant and attached to the
city mains. This cost considerable.
The cost was more to those who had
to change from hot water, as differ
ent radiation attachments had to be
made. 1t seems to the Freeman
Tribune that the council should not
abandon the plant until every effort
has been made to make 1t a success
In speaking of the proposition to
abandon the system the Journal
well says:
After an experiment running ov.
er several years, the city appears tc
be about ready to abandon the mum
icipal heating plant.
In this connection 1t is well to re
call the conditions under which thi:
plant was established. It will be re
