attention, and the early risers, especial

heralds the approach of breaking day,
is visible much sooner than it was ten
days ago.

TEXAN APPROVES
GUARANTY LAW.
Texas viii Pass Similar Law at
Next Session of The State
Legislature.i

Dallas, Tex, Sept. l4.-A special dis
patch to the Dallas News from Austin
says:
Augustine De Zavalla, one Of the state
bank examiners, returned from various
points in Oklahoma Fridaymornine, where
he had been making for the department an
investigation relative to the various phases
of the Oklahoma bank guaranty law. Mr..
De Zavalla spent the day conferring with
the department of banking here and with
the attorney generals department. He
says the operation of the law in Okla
homa has been very satisfactory and his
findings have been that the bank guaranty
law is successful
The next legislature Of Texas will
probably be asked to pass bank guar
anto law, such measure being one Of
the laws recommended in the platform.
Mr.. De Zavalla will suggest some features
with reference to the law from his investi-
cation in Oklahoma. He says the law in
Oklahoma has tended toward strengthen
ing the STATE banks Of Oklahoma A laFGe
national bank in Enid surrendered its
national character and took out a state
charter This he thinks will be the effect
in some instances in Texas, should the
bank guaranty measure become a law.

Although this was the first day, every
room in the school building was taxed to
its capacity to hold the eager pupils.
In the enrolment by grades the sixth
