ALL BANKS CANNOT GUARANTEE FUNDS Comptroller RidgIey lnterprets
 Oklahoma Law STATE BANKS STAND ALONE National Banks Cannot Avail Them. selves of the Oklahoma Law Which
 Provides a Guarantee For
 State Banks.
STATE BANKS STAND ALONE

Washington, January 20.-W. B. Ridg- ley. comptroller of the currency, today forwarded letter to Governor Hoch of Kansas regarding the right of national banks in state to mutually guarantee the deposits in other banks In his letter the comptroller says:
 T find that there seems to be some confusion as to the position taken by this office in regard to the right of a na- tional bank to participate in the guar antee of deposits in other banks on the plan provided for in the law recently pre- scented for the state of Oklahoma.
 "The position of this office is clearly given in a letter written to G. J. Robin son. cashier of the First National bank of Lawton, Okla, and since then to a num- Der of Oklahoma bankers, who have made inquiries on the subject. This letter says: You state you think that none of the officers of national banks in Oklahoma desire the present statute of Oklahoma 10 be applied to national banks, provided the national banks of Oklahoma can ere ate some sort of a guaranty fund of their own. You are further of the opin- ion that all of the national banks of Okla homa desire to create a fund for the pur pose of guaranteeing all the deposits in all the national banks of Oklahoma and you request an opinion from this office wheth CT any objection would be made to this plan.
 The principle has been well settled by judicial decisions that a national bank
 
 tions of a third party, except in con- nection with the sale or transfer of it's own property.
 I do not understand that the national banks of Oklahoma propose under any plan to enter into an unlimited guaranty of the deposits in other national banks. The plan, however does contemplate that national bank shall segregate part of it's funds and place these funds in the hands of third party to be appointed, to the payment of depositors in another national bank in the event of the failure of that national bank. l think such contract or guaranty is prohibited under the general practice in a number of eases. l am constrained to say here that until the Attorney General shall be of a con trary opinion, it will be the duty of this office to dlsapprove of any plan by which one national bank shall become liable or shall appropriate any part of its prop erty for the payment of deposits in other national banks.
 Some time ago, through the Secretary of the Treasury, l made application to the Attorney General for an official opin- ion as to the rights of national banks within the state of Oklahoma to accept the provisions of the state statute relat- ing to the guaranty of deposits in bank.
 ''The Attorney General very properly re- piled that he could not give an official opinion upon the subject until he had heard from the Comptroller, it being con- trary to the custom to render opinions upon abstract questions of law"

to establish this meteorological labora- tory, the health board. by unanimous vote, recommended a non-medical man for the position of bacteriologist.
 With satisfaction we call attention to the improvements that have followed the creation of a health department for the city. Health affairs have been looked after as never before and the improve ments in the public milk supply conse- quent on the activities and supervision of the city health officer, has been marked and noticeable Public reports made by this officer to the Mayor and Aldermen during the last three and half years, furnish the consecutive record of activi- ties and accomplishments.
 l With satisfaction we call attention to partment since the installation of the bacteriological laboratory.
 . The plan outlined by the health au- thorities warranted the expectation of better and better results in future. The plan contemplated further Improvements that would safeguard, more and more the lives and the health of our citizens. The effect of the ordinance recently adopted by the Council will be to disor- ganize the health system of the city and to most seriously cripple this progressive development.
 We gladly bear witness to the fact that during the last four years our alder men have shown uniform willingness to carry out suggestions so palpably made in the interest of public health, and we can but think that the 10 aldermen who voted for the passage of this disorgan- izing ordinance. did so under mistaken ideas and conceptions.
 We are of the positive opinion that a disorganized health department can never grapple with the large problems to be met by Greater Birmingham. Unity, organization. cohesion in the health sys- tenn will alone give us results.

Railroads Get "Stuck."

Baton Rouge, January 20.-The Louisi- ana state railroad commission at it's meet ing this afternoon decided that it could not make rule prohibiting railroads from receiving liquor offered for snip- ment into prohibition territory. petit ton for a ruling of this nature was asked for by the St. Louis, Iron Noun tain and Southern on the grounds that whisky shipped into prohibition territory and not called for was dead weight on the roads hands, as it could not be dis posed of on account of the prohibition laws.

Whereas, The City Council of Birming- ham at it's last meeting passed an ordi- nance separating the office of bacteriolo- igist from the city health department. and Whereas, This action was taken over the protest of this board of health and its official representatives, and Whereas, This board is unanimously
 of the opinion that the city health de- partment can never reach high effective
 ness while thus disintegrated Therefore. Be it resolved that the Jeff ferson County Medical society, in its
 capacity of Board of Health, views with regret and concern, this action of the City Council which disorganizes the city
 health department and must seriously cripple the effectiveness and utility of the
 department.
 Be it further resolved that this society

more than the Falls.

promised to High street,
Mayor Simonton-I have not promised
the work to anyone. think it has been
generally understood, however, that the
work was to be done this year on High

road that needs it more.
Aid. Hagan moved that the appropria-

against the motion; Aid. Hagan, Staples

said he would probably veto the motion.

Old Orchard, which was burned last sum-

this summer.
The dedication of the new st. Sylvia's
Catholic church will take place early
i'll the summer. The new building is
architecture in New England. The greater
part OF the interior work is done, and the
grounds are fast being graded. The new
church will have some handsome fittings,
while in the old st. Sylvia the regalia and
interior fittings are of high order. 1t
possesses number of articles OF more
than ordinary interest, including one Of
the most interesting and valuable speci-
mems Of carving of any church on this side
of the water. The cross on the altar is one
of the finest specimens of the work of
Joseph Mayer, the famous peasant who
has won almost international fame as the
Christus in the Passion Play at Oberam-
mergua. Besides being consummate
actor, the peasant who won so much fame
in the role is one of the. most proficient
carvers OF his country, and his name is we'll
known on the other side of the water
The specimens of his carving are as beau
tifully done as those of the chisel of an
ancient sculptor. The cross in st. Sylvia's
is one of the best examples of his art, and
is deliberately carved down to the minutest
detail. The cross was presented to the
Bar Harbor parish number of years ago
by one of the summer residents, who
secured it in Europe at no little trouble,
and is one of the most beautiful of the
many adornments Of the picturesque
chapel.

POWER LINE.
Work of Stringing Wire will Begin
Snnn.


Work on the electrical power transmits
sion line from Ellsworth to Bar Harbor is
being pushed forward rapidly in the hope
OF having it in operation before the full
tide of summer business sets in at Bar
Harbor.
The poles have all been set from the Hall
steam mill on Water street, in Ellsworth,
to the Trenton bridge. The wire has ar
rived, and work Of putting it up will soon
begin. Instead of copper wire, as first
proposed, aluminium wire is to be used.
This is in line with the company's policy
Of having the line OF the best possible
construction. The aluminium wire gives
greater strength with less weight. The
wire will be three-eighths Of an inch in
diameter, as against one-quarter inch
copper wire.
From Trenton to Mt. Desert island the
wires will be carried 125 feet above the
water by means OF steel towers 1875 feet
high. This is to meet the government
requirement as to height Of wires above
navigable waters.
The steel poles for the line through
postoffice square in Ellsworth have been
ordered
