The laws of the state provide for
the creation Of several departments
of the state guard, giving the gov
ernor the power to make appoints
ments, as commander in chief. The
case to be brought to pass upon the
constitutionality of the law limiting
the adjutant generals service to two
years will bring from the supreme
court a definite Interpretation Of the
constitutional provision, which would
seem on its face to retain commits
stoned officers in service Indefinitely
unless removed by sentence of court
martial.

GUARANTEEING BANK ,pEPosl1

GUARANTEEING BANK ,DEPoslTs
Both of the political parties in the
state have Endorsed the idea of guar
anteeing bank deposits. The Repub
lcan Endorsement Is an alternative
one, covering either postal savings
hanks or bank deposit guaranty
The Democratic Endorsement is in
line with the: positive declaration of
the national platform. T. ~
The approval of the bank deposit
4 guaranty idea in the Republican
platform was not given without the
dissent of a number of members of
the party and members of the party
i, will consider themselves free to act
rs they choose In this matter. The
. Republican national convention de,
elfned to approve the bank deposit
guaranty idea, and the whole matter
has been the subject of much discus
sion through the country. The re.
suit Of the national election would
not indicate that it was a winning
declaration, since its presence in the
Democratic platform did not seem to
bring many votes to the Democratic
national ticket.
Senator Pierce's bill to be presented
when the. assembly reconvenes will
be interesting, and will present the
whole matter; to the legislature for
consideration The Pierce bill con-
tains some features in addition to
those present in the laws of the
states that have approved. the guar
anty deposit. = The feature of the bill
that prevents any bank not partici-
pating in the plan from receiving
public deposits will attract attention
and interest from the national banks
IN the state that would either have
TO- come in and participate in the
guaranty plan or be shut out from
receiving deposits of public funds.
The Tribune has heretofore taken
the position that the guaranty of de-
posfts is matter of doubtful ex-
pediency and wisdom and has not
changed its mind. It believes the
way to insure bank deposits is to be-
gin 1T the bottom of the banking sys-
tenn, and that can he done by more
careful examinations of banks and
the prevention of unwise and illegal
banking methods. 49,,
s& Il is q pretty safe proposition that
any bank that keeps within the law
cannot fail or suspend and not pay
out its depositors nearly If not quite
in full. To guarantee deposits would
merely be to put premium upon the
unsafe and reckless banker, and
make the wise and conservative bank
ers stand his share of the losses

Phoenix. Ariz. May "A. H. Dem
rick. an electrical engineer in charge Of
all electrical and power construction I'M
der the Hall River valley reclamation
project. was drowned today in the sluic-
ing tunnel six hundred feet long, which
was cut through a solid mountain at
the end of the Roosevelt Storage dam.
A. L. Harris, chief assistant to Engi-
neer Smith, in charge of the cOnstruc-
ton at ROseville, was swept through
the tunnel with him. but emerged into
the river without serious injury.
The water in the tunnel is controlled
BY two sets Of gates, three in each set,
the sets being eleven feet apart and
about 200 feet from the head of the tun-
mel at the bottom of a shaft 40 feet
deep on the side of the mountain, The
shafts contain the machinery which OPP
crates the gates. The men entered the
tunnel from the top. Some one raised
the lower central gate, and the water
under a 9O-foot head in the reservoir
poured through. dashing the men
through 400 feet of rough, ragged tun-
mel to the river below.
Supervising Engineer Hill has gone to
the Roosevelt dam to investigate.
Demrick was about 50 years old. His
former home was in Detroit. He had
been with this project about six years,
and was accounted one of the best men
in the service.

MAY LEGISLATE
BY PROCLAMATION
Senate Tariff Bill Gives New
and Added Powers 10
President.

Washington, May THE senate tar
if bill inithe section which deals with
the maximum and minimum PROPOSE
ton. has, in the judgment of tariff ex-
perts. one very important feature. II
virtually vests in the president power
to declare a tariff war against any ma
ton. 1t is given to him to decide
whether any nation is discriminating
against the products Of the United
States in its system Of duties. This per
mits the government through the state
department and the other agencies pro-
vided by law to make agreements with
other nations as to trade and tariff con-
ceSsions. which can be made effective
By d proclamation of the president
without the necessity of anything in
the way Of legislation or treaty agree
ment.
The bill authorizes the president to
employ at his discretion persons to Sc
cure information or assist him I'm the
discharge of the duties, which would
mean that he can appoint commission
,.rs to go abroad and make agreements
with foreign nations.
Al the same time, attention is paid
TO the wishes of those who are not IN
favor OF reciprocal agreements The
proposition makes it impossible to have
any rate established lower than any
,rate i'm the tariff law. Any change IN
the case Of any nation must be a
change in the way of higher duties No
bargaining or concession can secure for
any country any reduction in the tar
if law.

BURDENS OF MILITARISM.
Jacob GoutS Schurman Says Load
Makes Nations Stsgger.

Chicago, May Jacob Gould Schur-
man of Cornell university tonight ad-
dressed the Sunday club~of this city. He
said. in part.
In modern times wars are comparative
" infrequent. The suffcrings Of the
wounded are small in our own time COM
pared with what they have been. The
financial load is enough to make the rich
est nations reel and stagger. TNO-thirds
of all the revenues of the United States,
it is said. are used to defray the eS-
penses entailed by necessary preparation
for future wars.
Taking Europe as a whole. something
like 100000 people are now III arms. all
Withdrawn from industrial pursuits in or
der that they may be trained for war
And their maintenance, OF course. is al
the time a burden upon the producers OF
the country. It is estimated that Europe
is regularly paying on her standing army
from six to seven billion dollars
While the wage eaTEers tend more and
more to become the advocates Of peace.
still It is alleged that we are building
our uavies larger annually.
Another force operating against mill
tarism and tending TO render friendlier in
ternational relations is the growing inter
course among the nations on the part
Of the traders, travellers, students and
missionaries.
when we turn from Europe TO Asia we
feel the greatest need Of mutual under
standing, appreciation and sympathy.
Nothing is more important than an in
crease Of intercourse between them and
US.

FOUR HUNDRED
NOW ON STRIKE
All Employees of Big Smelter at
Murray Demand an In
crease of Pay.

Four hundred smeltermen employed
by the American Smelling & Refining
company at its plant at Murray are out
on strike demanding higher wages.
The strike began on Saturday night
when fifty Austrians on the charge
floor went out Yesterday the strike
spread to the other crews at the smelter
and last night there was not man at
work. A large percentage of the stTik
ers are foreigners, Austrians, Greeks
and Italians. though there were some
Americans who have also struck.
When the time came for the men on
the I O'Clock shift to 90 to work yes
terday morning, the fifty who struck
the night before were at the smelter
gate and persuaded nearly all of the
crew to stay away from work. Some
of the workmen avoided the pickets by
entering the smelter by going over the
STAG pile These men were put to work
banking the eight blast furnaces in or
der to keep them from freezing during
the next few days. At 5 o'clock, when
the time came for another shift to go
to work, no one attempted to enter the
smeIter and from that time on the plant
was idle.
A committee from the strikers viii
meet with the officials today and it
seems probable that arrangements will
be made whereby the smeltermen viii
return to work pending final settle
ment Of the wage controversy.
There has been no violence and no
disorder since the commencement of the
strike No arrests have been made. and
