He Accepts Invitation of Governor

Ways to Defend Act.
CFrom a staff correspondent

(From a Staff Correspondeht.)
LINCOLN, Dec. 2S.-(Special.)-Governo
Snallenberger has accepted an invitation
from Governor Haskell to attend a con-
ference between these two and the gov
ernor of Kansas to discuss a way to de-
fend the banking law of Oklahoma, which
is now pending in the supreme court ( the
United States.
Governor ~Shallenberger is much i'm
pressed with the banking law Of Texas,
which goes into effect January /. This
law provides that the state banks must
guarantee their deposits either by taking
out an indemnity policy or by a mutua
arrangement. He has received a copy of
the Oklahoma law and has the opinion OF
Attorney General Thompson that it would
stand the test Of the constitution In Ne
braska-
LAS Governor Haskell suggests said
Governor Shallenberger, kansas, okla
homa and Nebraska are mutually inter-
ested In the question of the guaranty of
bank deposits. 1 notice that the laws in
Nebraska and in Kansas were attacked
from different points so 1t seems to me
the suggestion for a conference is a good
one. The attorneys in the case should get
together and see what can be done. l shall
wire Governor Haskell that I approve his
suggestion"
The telegram sent by the governor OF
Oklahoma was as follows:
GUTHRIE, Okla, Governor A. C. shal
lenberger, Lincoln Nebraska, Kansas and
Oklahoma nave mutual interests in the
banking law question. Our test case origl-
mated in state court. Our law fully up
held by our supreme court. Case now In
United States supreme court on appeal
from state supreme court. VIII probably
be reach about February or March. 1 be-
lieve all three states are mutually inter
ested in the Oklahoma case and therefore
have decided to invite conference and mu-
tual cooperation between Kansas, Ne
braska and oklahoma. Kindly advise me
If you think well of this conference and
cooperation.

dragged from the alley to Davis barn, n
distance of twenty feet and left in the

who became nervous when he did not
reach home. He lived two hours after being
found, but did not regain Consciousness
Davis was supposed to have $500 on his
person, but all that was gone when he was
found. His watch was not molested. The
shot entered just above the right ear, so
close that his hair was singed. Three bad
gashes, each Of which fractured his skull,
were inflicted on the head above the left
eye.
