ALAW TO SAVE
= BANK DEPOSIT0RS
NEW SYSTEM SUGGESTED BY THE
FAILURE AT FARIBAUIT.'
Assessments Would Be Levied on All
State Banks and an Insurance Fund
Created for Payment Of Losses-Na-
tional Banks Expected In Time TO
Make Similar Arrangements.

sn.ci.1 to TIL. Journ.l. :. CO.,. ( -
!: Faribault, Mimi, March 9.-The fail
IRE of the First National bank has re-
suited, for one thing, in a demand for
the creation of some system by which
depositors will be insured against loss
when similar failures occur. A bill en-
bodying this principle has been pre-.
pared and. will be submitted to next
Saturdays meeting of the depositors
of. the bank for, their approval.
In the event: that it is Endorsed by
them, Senator Buck, who heartily ap-
proves the measure, will introduce it
in the senate. T., s.>.~.
The bill provides that an assessment
shall be levied on all state banks, the
amount derived from the assessment to
form fund from which losses shall be
paid. =,
When this. fund has reached $1,000
600 or 81, 100000, the assessments will
cease until a failure occurs; in which
event another assessment will be made
to cover the deficit in the fund. The
money belonging to the fund may be
invested*in municipal or school bonds
or other first-class securities. It will be
in charge of the state, which will be the
guardian Of the fund.
When state bank fails, the state
will appoint receiver, as is now done
with national banks, who wi settle it's
affairs, and, after realizing all he can
on the banks assets, if they prove
insufficient, will draw on this insur-
ance fund to pay the depositors their
claims in full.
'"If this bill, or bill similar to it,
becomes the law said a prominent
Faribault capitalist interested in the
measure, eve believe that it will not
only insure depositors in state banks
against loss, and force private banks
to become Incorporated under the state
law, but it will be a strong influence
to compel national banks to make SINH
lar arrangements. It stands to reason
that where depositor is absolutely as
sured against loss, he will generally
choose the state bank, and that if the
national bank wishes to remain in bust.
ness at all, it will have to make SINH
lar provision for the safety of the de-
posits which it solicits. ..~
"We had at first thought Of having
this bill introduced in the federal legis-
lature to apply to national banks, but
Washington is a good way off and we
are not in as close touch with our rep
resentatives there as here at home.
They have system Of bank insurance
with some such provisions as we have
incorporated in our bill in force in Can
ada, and there a bank failure is un-
known. I see no reason why the gov
eminent should not afford our people
similar protection.
