in 19 years the banks there have

positors so that, II no lawful heirs
claim the same, such funds go to the

answers were; There is no such law

made TO get a law passed requiring
the banks to publish the names OF

New Mexico Case.
Some years ago, in 1899, TO be exact.
Bernard S ROdey secured the passage
Of a law in New Mexico providing that
long to the common schools OF the
then territory; that all banks having
such money. should on the first OF
January each year, and for six days
thereafter, publish a list Of the names
Of the depositorS and the amount be-
longing TO each of such money, not
called for within three years next pre-

publish this notice. II provided that
the governor. the attorney general and
the district attorneys, should immedi-

cause such money to escheat to the
schools Of the territory.
said Mr. ROdey recently, concerning
this law:
NO banker during all the years,
ever paid any attention TO that law or
made any report or published any
notice under it In 1915, when the
bankers got through their great bank

How Names Arc CHANGED.
From the Brooklyn DNly Eagle.

"Who Was Who?' is the suggested title
for a new book to contain the names of
all persons who have changed their
names. A new publication will do that in
England. If the work is carried back far
enough it will be found that scarcely a
name a survived the wear and tear of
time. Some of the changes are inten-
tional, like our daily applications in court.
but most of them are due to bad spoilers

ton. Our Dutch ancestors had a habit

We arc bound to put away
unreasoning optimism. The
German is not yet beaten-that
is. save in M local section of
his great front. He is still able
TO strike. and there is not yet
any proof that Foch has decid-
ed to hold on to the initiative.
which he has unquestionably
wrcs;ed temporarily from Lu-
dendorff. Only when Foch as
sumes the offensive again can
we feel that the whole character
of the campaign has changed.
Pending that time. we must ex-
pect a new German attack, and
u new German attack is bound
to be n serious problem. But if
we have sti!l to restrain ouI OPP
tim!sm OF. confidence is now
firmly and justly established by
the results of the last two
weeks. We are most certainly
over the pitch; the ultimate
failure of the German campaign
OF 1913 seems assured beyond
doubt. We have not opened the
:cad 70 Berlin but we have shut
and barred the road to Paris,
and this was the real purpose of
our campaign of 1918.
