Water sufficient to develop nearly

STATE Banking LAW is UPHELD.
Cashier Strubfe Liable for ALLEGED
False Statement.

Cashier strubte Liable for Alleged
False Statement.
In the case of State of South Da-
kota, plaintiff in error, VS.. G. L. Stru-
BILE, defendant in error, which has
been decided by the supreme court,
the validity of the state banking law
is upheld in every particular where 1t
was attacked.
Struble, as cashier of the Egan
State bank, on demand of the public
examiner, furnished hat official with
a sworn statement of the condition Of
the bank at the close of business on
Sept. 9, 1908. The statement was al
legged to be false as to the true con-
ditions, and suit was brought against
Struble under the banking law, which
provides a penalty of a penitentiary
sentence of not less than one year
nor more than ten years for this Of
tense.
Attorneys for Struble demurred to
the complaint on the ground of uncon-
stitutionaiity of the statute, and the
demurrer was sustained by the trial
judge. The public examiner brought
the case to the supreme court, which
has overruled the trial court.
The main points raised in the de-
murrer were that the legislature in
authorizing the public examiner to
provide a form of report to be re-
CURED had delegated its powers to an
individual; that the law discriminates
between state and private banks, and
is special legislation, and that the
statement made to the examiner,
though false, did not make the cashier
liable under the law, and it was not,
as required by law, certified to by not
less than two of the directors of the
bank.
The court holds in the first claim
that 1t would be impossible for the
legislature to fix a set form of report
to meet all requirements, and that the
law confers upon the bank examiner.
no powers which in any way encroach
upon legislative domain.
On the second point the claim of
discrimination is set aside by the
language of the statute, wherein 1t
says: where reference herein is
made to banks, bankers or banking
in any manner, the same shall be con-
strued as applying to any corporation,
association, firm or individual so en-
gagged in business as herein Defined"
The contention that the report had
no force in it's failing to receive the
signatures Of the directors as required
is set aside as trivial, as the report
sworn to by Cashier Struble declared
it was a true and correct statement
of the financial condition of said bank
at the close of business on Sept. 8,
1908; that the statement as made
gives the true and correct financial
standing of the bank. and that all
questions are truthfully answered"
The court holds on this that the
fact that it (the report) is averred
to has been made in accordance with
the provisions of section 52l1 is a
sufficient averrment that it was prop
erly verified and attested."

Where it is practical, the govern

with the Highmore experiment sta
ton. In other cases they attempt to
work with experimental farmers, who
are willing to take up the work with
