knowledge Of banking is common % al
intelligent people, and furnishes the al-
most unis fsal demand for law pfovid-
ing for guaranteeing deposits The trend
for some years past has been toward q
bank guaranty law Perhaps the Okla
homa law is deficient but il Is move
ment toward a general law providing for
the safety Of Individual deposits. Every
National bank that is a government de-
pository must give bond for the safety Of
such deposits. If the government is to be
made safe Why not make the individual
depositor safe, and in the same Or some
other way just as good.

1t may sound like ancient history, but
il is a fact, nevertheless, that Ethen Allen
Hitchcock approved oil leases on a large
area of the best oil lands in the Cherokee
country on the very day the tribe voted TO
relinquish their tribal government. Had
he done so a day earlier the Cherokee
agreement providing for allotment and
the final disintegration Of Indian auton-
omy would have failed Mr. Hitchcock
fooled the Cherokee Indians in way that
bordered closely on the disreputable.

A THOUGHT FOR YINITA.

Good roads and fine streets follow civili-
zation. AS a people progresses from the
primative to the more advanced stages,
ways and means Of transportation come
into vogue. In this Oklahoma country
the finest roads in the world can be had
at a minimum expense, because the soil
is such that roadbeds are easily made.
The hard freezing of the north does not
effect us here.
Every city should see to it that fine
roads, approaches, should be constructed
and lined with elms or other long-lived
trees.

As a rule National banks capital and
surplus are about represented by the cash
reserve which it must at all times keep in
its vaults, ia order to do a safe banking
business. Hence il follows that the bank
ing income and banking profits ore de-
rived almost wholly from deposits, which
are loaned out at interest The circula-
ton Of National banks is not so profit
able as the general public is sometimes
inclined to believe The truth probably
is that National bank circulation is per
haps Improbable to the banks This

The more President Roosevelt tries to

BOUND AND GAGGED HERSELF.
A Woman Hits Upon a Plan to Keep
Her Husband at Home.

Chicago, Feb. ga woman's scheme
of gagging and binding herself hands
and feet to the legs Of a sewing ma
chine and table, after scattering the
contents Of bureau drawers over the
floor-all for the purpose of winning the
sympathy of a husband who went to
church meetings instead of staying
home nights-was brought to the atten-
ton of the police last night.
Mrs. Christina Rossing, S55 West d.
vision street, bride of a few months,
was the woman. She is the wife of AL
bert Rossing, butterine maker.
Mr.. Rossing left home last evening to
attend church meeting, and when he
returned two hours later he found his
wife in the predicament described
above.
After she had been revived by ply
stefan she said two burglars had invad-
ed the house and bound her.
Rossing notified the police and three
detectives were sent to investigate. To
them the woman repeated the story she
had told her husband, adding too
graphic description of the two men.
1t was this minute description that
led to suspicion. After a little ques-
tioning. she said, sobbing:
ct was not robbed at all. 1 just pre-
tended 1t to win the sympathy of my
husband and get him to stay home with
me at night"

NOW IT IS POLITICS.
A New Bugaboo Has Appeared in Wall
Street.

New York, Feb. 8.-Operations in Sc
cur1ties have been checked this week
by the uncertainties Of the industrial
and business situation and by the shap-
ing of the probable issues for active
discussion in the coming political cam
paign. The world of stocks deems
that it is likely to be under fire from
both sides in the discussion and oratory
Of the political canvass and from this
augurs Ill of the effect on speculative
activity during the coming summer.
Sinister rumors early in the week con-
corning some of the banks and the
finances of several of the railroad cor
porations were attributed to bearish
professional sources and have passed
out of consideration.
Declining railroad earnings, the con-
tinued contraction in iron and steel and
reduction of working forces in several
leading industries have been forces in
the heavy tone of securities.
