GUARANTEEING BANK DEPOSITS

GUARANTEEING BANK DEPOSITS.
 Everything is fish that falls into the net of the free and unterrified law makers of Oklahoma. They are not afraid to consider a proposition be- cause it is new, or to make experi- ments in fields as yet unexplored by legislative bodies. For this reason it is not surprising that Mir. Bryan's sug- gestiOn, made at the time of the bank panic, that the government should guarantee bank deposits, has been fav- orably received by the Oklahoma legis- lature.
 A law has been passed, which be- comes effective February 18th, under the provisions of which the state will guarantee the depositors in Oklahoma state banks against loss through the suspension of any of the banks. A tax will be imposed on all banks doing business under the laws of Oklahoma to provide a guaranty fund to indem- nifty the state in case it should be call tu upon lu Hldhe SOOO any NtAASAthSS under this guaranty.
 The effect of this innovation in fiscal legislation bids fair to be far-reaching. IL has created uneasiness among the officers of banks across the border in Kansas, who fear that if there should be another panic their depositors might withdraw and place their money in the Oklahoma banks for better security. Governor Hoch is already considering the matter of calling a special session of the legislature to enact similar laws. The people Of Texas are also inter ested, and are calling upon their legis- lature to follow Oklahoma's example.
 The New York Tribune fears that this will cause a rush of legislation in the southwest guaranteeing bank depos- its, which may easily reach congress. for national banks doing business in states where such laws are in force may find themselves placed at a dis advantage with the state banks, and ask congress to come to their relief with similar legislation. It believes that the effect O. such a law would be dangerous. for it would bolster up weak banks at the expense of strong ones. and would give encouragement to reckless banking.

RAILROADS INSIST ON
STOCK INSPECTION

Aberdeen. S. D., April 25.-By an act
of the legislature of the state of South
Dakota in 1905 il is illegal for railroad
companies to accept shipments OF cat
tie for movement from one part OF the
state except the owner or person in
charge shall produce for examination
by the agent of the railroad company a
certificate not more than 10 days old,
from a duly authorized inspector, officer
or veterinarian to the effect that the
cattle offered for transportation are
free from infectious, contagious or COM
municable diseases.
BY the same act IL is illegal TO al
low cattle to be shipped or driven into
South Dakota from another state with
out the required certificate of health or
inspection.
Strict compliance with these laws will
be required by the Milwaukee Dad and
no shipments will be accepted by it un-
less they are fully met. no matter what
delay may be caused the shipper.
This applies TO emigrant movables as
well as to full shipments Of stock, and
as the traffic in the former is especially
heavy at present 1t will behoove all
emigrants 10 attend to the matter of
having their stock inspected.
