BANK GUARANTY
 LAWS ATTACKED


 Washington. November 29-The attack on the constitutionality of the bank guaranty laws of Nebraska. Kansas and Oklahoma came to the front, today when attorneys for a number of banks in Kansas filed a brief in the supreme court of the United States attacking specifically the Kansas law. The ques tion of the constitutionality of the three laws shortly will be argued oral IF ly before the court.
 It Is argued in the brief that the acts by arbitrary and capricious discrim- nations" between depositors and other creditors of the banks render the law unconstitutional Ii is urged that de- positors have no voice in deciding whether a bank shall or shall not com ply with the bank guaranty law, and hence the result will be that depositors in order to obtain the advantages of benefits of the law must deposit their money only in banks which do accept the law and that this means discrini- nation Against and destruction of the business of the banks which do not or cannot comply with the conditions of lhe law.

tbe citizen's property and take it for pub lie use without his consent, but always upon the payment of due compensatlon. Fo,. this reason I have always contendeu that railroad officials and railroad eln- nloves are uuasi-public servants. They not only owe a duty to the public, but they owe legal duty The state having conferred upon the railroad corporation the extraordinary power to take the cit- izens property without his consent, upon the payment of proper compensation, IS for that reason held to the very highest standard of accountability. They are re- ouired to exercise the greatest possible care and prudence in the operation or the trains and, the administration of the prop ertv of the railroad company. For this very reason. in case of the destruction Of life or injury to persons or any damage to the property of the public due to the negligence of it's officers or employees, the corporation will have to respond lib- erallv to the injured party for such neg- ligence This, of course, requires the manapement of a railroad company to de- wise the most perfect rules and regula- tions that can be conceived of Tor the purpose of protecting tbe lives Of the public. the lives of its own employees and the property of the public.

SPLENDID RESULTS
 FROM CORN CLUBS
Reports From Boys Show Re-
 markable Yields
AN AID TO THE STATE
Mississippi Corn Production Has Been Stimulated Greatly Ky the Work of the Boys Corn
 Clubs

Jackson, Miss, November 29.-(Speeial) Commissioner of Agriculture II. D. Blakeslee is sending out blanks for the official reports of the activities of the Boys Corn clubs of Mississippi. He is able now to state the five highest scores and they are the astonishing totals of PA bushels per acre, for the winner of the state championship; PIT bushels next, POS bushels next, 192 bushels and IFS bushels. The names of the winners will be announced later. In addition to this Commissioner Blakeslee reports that there are over 1000 of the corn club boys in the state who have averaged as high as 14O bushels of corn per acre, and twice as many more who have gone over the 100 bushels per acre mark, while crops of 30, 70 and 60 bushels per acre are com mon reports
 This corn club work among the boys has stimulated the corn production in the entire state,' said Commissioner Blakeslee 'The showing how 1t can be done by these wide-awake chaps has made their elders sit up and take mo- tice and use their methods. This has also had the effect of pulling the states average on corn acreage to 2012 bushels per acre. When you think of the hum dreds of thousands of acres cultivated by shiftless negroes, and unprogressive whites, it will be seen that the progress sive ones must be making big yields to pull the average from 121s bushels per acre six years ago, up to the present figures"
 Commissioner Blakeslee has figured that the increase in the corn crop in six years has meant 19,20o,e0O bushels of corn worth s15,O0O000 to Mississippi and that if this was loaded in 5O-foot cars and 1000 bushels to the car it would make 19,20O car loads, or train of cars 1S0 miles long, sufficient to reach from Jackson to New Orleans.
 There was an increase of some 100000 acres in corn in Mississippi this year, and still not enough to supply the de- mand, as grist mill at Natchez recent ly had to buy five cars of corn from the west.
 State Superintendent of Education J. N. Powers today received notice of meeting of the members of the board of trustees of the Mississippi State Nor nal college to be held at Hattiesburg on Saturday, December g.. The matter Of selecting site will come before the meeting. The building committee took a long trip a few months ago, inspect ing similar institutions of learning and had with them MT. F. c. Churchill of the firm of De Buys, Churchill X Labouisse Of New Orleans to study the architecture and features of the institutions and in corporate the best of what he saw into the Mississippi institutions buildings Steps will also be taken at the Saturday meeting to adopt plans, it is under stood.

 Three Hundred Present
 Count of the delegates which was taken at the afternoon session showed that in the neighborhood of 300 delegates are in attendance upon the session, and that all of them are enthusiastic over the meet ing which has been arranged.
 A feature of the convention is to be found in the fact that while the delegates are swapping views regarding the possi- bilities of the state, it's resources and ad- vantages they are not confining them selves solely to what can be done, but 10 what will be done.
 As a result of this determination, plans were being formulated tonight for the establishment of an advertising fund with which to get down to real work. It was pointed out during the day and night sessions that the convention now assembled here is more for the purpose of showing to the world what the state s possibilities are, than for showing these possibilities to the citizens of Alabama. t is taken that Alabamans are already aware of the resources. while the out side world is not An advertising fund, as a consequence, is deemed necessary for the fulfillment of the convention s purposes.
 sThe modus operadi for this fund has not yet been determined.
