SUNDAY NIGHT MUSINGS.
BY {. T. RAwALT.

The following dispatch from
Oklahoma furnishes the best ar
gument for the bank guarantee
law we have as yet observed:
Tulsa. Okla. Oct 2l.-With
one dissenting voice. the members
OF Groupe four of the Bankers
section. representing sixty banks
in the eastern part of the state. in
a meeting here today denounced
the state banking board for its
methods in dealing with the affairs
of the Columbia Bank & Trust
company. of Oklahoma City.
They also demanded that the
state bank examiner issue a state
ment regarding the condition OF
the bank. The guaranty law was
declared a failure.
The resolutions also recon-
mended that the state banking
board as il now exists be abol-
ished and that guaranty funds be
redeposited with banks from
which 1t originated and no inter
est be paid by banks while de-
posted with them.
We can imagine the consterna-
tion that must fill banking circles
when IT becomes evident that fail
ures have been made impossible.
The real truth is that banks. like
other mercantile establishments.
are continually seeking the de-
struciion OF one another. The
panic has been the ready tool
with which banks have destroyed
their business competitors. Un-
der a good guarantee law they
cannot have panies. /, follows as
a natural sequence that piracy
cannot longer endsnger an insti-
tuition that the present organizl-
ton OF society has made a neces-
sity The guaraptee idea has
come to stay. There is little
doub, that the following few years
will see it generally adopted and
even the Nationals will be com
pelled in self defense TO adopt
some form OF securing their de-
positors. Gradually the people
have come to the conclusion that
the same rule that makes tor safe
banking as regards the ordinary
borrower is a good rule for them
as loancrs to the banks. to adopt
for their own safety. We are very
glad to read the endorsement. by
the rule of opposites. of the Okla,

some specific aims for the guidance
OF school officers:
1. There should be in a commu-
nifty supporting the High School
something Of enthusiasm for the
school. a pride in 1t, and a WELL
marked willingness, coupled with
the ability, to spend money, and
spend 1t intelligently.
2. The school building, the library
the laboratory, all the equipment,
should be much more than barely
sufficient. Really creditable teaching
may be handicapped by unfavorable
conditions.
8. The teaching stan should con-
sist OF at least three teachers OF
academic preparation equivalent to
that usually represented by the B. A.
degree. They should have had some
professional training 1.-THE best evi-
dence Of which Is professional ex-
perience and success and should
have enthusiasm for the work.
4. As the very small school sell
dom has the atmosphere for devel-
oping mind and social efficiency
which obtains in the larger school.
the enrolment VIII lie "A factor in
considering schools for the accred-
tied list.
>. A school asking to be accred-
tied should have been completely or
ganized on the above basis long
enough to have graduated classes
for two years. and should have a
creditable class for graduation in the
year In which II makes it's applica-
ton. A school. some of whose grad
yates have gone on to higher insti-
I tutions. Is more acceptable than one
of which this is not true.
G. The high school should have a
sound and well balanced course of
study. and graduation from the
school should be based upon not less
than fifteen units of such work.
AT the close OF Supt Hussong's
remarks. Pres Hufty asked how
many would. before Thank CIV
ing visit the schools and show
tne interest called for IN rule No.
and a large number promised

Altogether the meeting was a
splendid success and others will
follow. The Christian church
had been secured tor this meet
ing but owing to Rev. Hester's s
illness it was later moved to the
Methodist church. Thanks were
extended to the Methodist peo-
pie for the use of their church
and to the Paonia band for its ex-
cellen, and enjoyable music.

Mac Scofeld, the only boy in the
class, took as the subject of his Grafton
paths to Power" and treated it in a
most exhaustive manner. His grafton
showed careful preparation and much
thought and was worthy of a college
graduate. Young Schofeld is of a
most studious nature and one of the
brightest young men Grangeville has
ever graduated from her schools. He
handled his subject in an excellent
manner and must have consumed con-
siderable time in its preparation. 1t
was far above the average high school
pupils work of this kind and what was
lacked in delivery was easily overcome
by the thought and thorough manner
in which the subject was handled.
Ethel DeArmond, who had as her
subject the class history and prophecy
acquitted herself with much honor.
The prophecy was amusing in parts
and smacked of much local humor.

and predictions of the future fortunes
of the class:

will always be famous DICTATOR.

food for thought and far above the
average paper prepared by high sch oil

much applause and the delivery was
worthy of praise
Miss Eunice Mcdonald recited the
class poem, an original production, far
above the ave rage and worth more

Justice is of course loudly demanded
Dy every litigant in court OF law, but
it Is a frequent intirmity of the human
mind to confuse Justice with ones own
cause The late Thomas B. Reed, &C.

to tell an amusing story to illustrate
this tendency
He was once retained by an enter
priSing client to prosecute an action.
On talking with the plaintiffs wit
nesses Mr.. Reed found that their sto-
ries were far from consistent SO he re-
ported the fact to his client and adj
vised that the suit be dropped. The
client was somewhat perturbed, but
told the attorney be would have talk
with the witnesses and let him know
the next morning what he had decided
to do True to his word. be dropped

Atchison, Kansas. is the central
point of four states, Missouri,
Kansas. Nebraska and Town, that
have on numerous years produced
a corn crop of a billion bushels.
According to the Globe, newspa-
per of Atcheson the government
estimate of the past years total
crop in the United States is 2,767,-
$4,000 bushels. Kansas began
the growing of alfalfa in 1879. and
If more had taken it up at that
time it is estimated that the state
would be much richer today. Now
hogs are marketed in the Missouri
river packing centers that never
tasted corn. How much better are
the opportunities in the Pacific
Northwest country for growing
hogs on alfalfa and other foods than
in the middle west. where alfalfa
does not thrive so we'll as it does

With the increasing number of
transcontinental railways coming
into the Northwest, the travelling
public is deriving numerous bene-
fits. the sum total of which is not
generally appreciated. Az the
competition becomes keener among
the various roads they are Offering
various inducements to attract
travel over their respective lines.
Comes now the Northern Pacific
Railway with announcement that
only water from famous Springs at
Detroit, Mimi, will be served on
its trains. The water is carefully
filtered and distributed along the
system, SO that all trains can re-
plenish their supply whenever it
runs low. Water of uncertain
quality causes more discomfort and
illness among persons who travel
than any other known cause. so
that this innovation ia one of i'm
