as a protection 10 the public and ter'
ror to dishonest men who have other
peoples money in their keeping
The statutes OF Oklahoma regarding
this matter are more stringent, in fact
than those Of Illinois, and a banker
convicsed Of such crime is ameniable
to the law governing larceny. Several
cases similar to that OF the Meadow
craft Brothers have been recorded in
Oklahoma during the past eighteen
months, and one conviction has been
secured In Pawnee county most
flagrant violation Of the act has been
presented TO the courts aud il is the
hope Of every well.meaning man that
In this case justice may not be too soft-
ly tempered with mercy This law
protecting depositors does not provide
penalties for misfortune. II does not
assume that bank may not be insol-
vent and its officers guiltless Of wrong
doing It does not propose to punish
one man for the act Of another. But
it does assume that when an officer Of
a bank knows that the institution has
been wrecked he cannot honestly take
the money of depositor and throw it
into the wreckage. 1t is a law that
honest men approve and its strongest
friends are men in the banking bus.

GOOD LAW AND A JUST DEolsIoS

The statutes Of Illinois, like those OF
Oklahoma, wisely and Justly provide
that the officers Of bank operating
under local laws who accept a deposit
knowing that the bank is insolvent
shall be deemed guilty OF a crime and
subject TO punishment therefor. The
justice and expediency Of such a law
are so clearly apparent and so gener-
ally conceded that one would natur.
ally expect no opposition 10 its en-
forcement from intelligent and honest
busiaess men. To take money on de.
posit knowing that il cannot be drawn
out knowing that the depositor must
lose part or the whole Of il, is as inn
moral as larceny. And bankers who
are capable OF playing such a conf.
dence game as that are quite as dan.
gerous to a community as the thieves
who constitute large contingent of
the criminals in our pen al institutions.
But in Illinois this law has been
fought through the courts for three
the fight in a confirmation of its con.
sututionality by the supreme court
1t is said that the money expended in
this protracted litigation was furn.
ished by state bankers other than the
parties to the sut. The prosecution
began in 1898, the defendants being
the Meadowcraft Brothers, who ad.
mitted the acceptance Of deposit un.
der the conditions named in the act.
but denied its constitutionahty. They
had social influence, wealthy friends
and political pull" aud all these
advantages were utilized in their be.
half 1t was long, hard fight in
which the best legal talent was en-
ployed, but the courts were firm in
their adherence to the right as they
saw it-as the disinterested people Of
he state saw it-and the law stands
