able consideration from congress. No better
amendment to the new banking law or one which
would meet with more widespread approval on
the part of business men, could be suggested.
Nobody knows better than the men in CONNER
cial life that there are in every national bank
certain directors who attend board meetings at
their pleasure and take but a languid interest in
the affairs of the institution.
People who intrust their savings to a banking
institution, and especially people of moderate
means, like to feel that the band has the invulner-
able armor of watchfulness. It is soothing to
their souls to know that the directors of the bank
are exercising constant and solicitous vigil over
their deposits. They smile with satisfaction
when they hear some one say the president OF
their bank is tighter than the bark on beech
tree" and are ready to caper with joy when the
board of directors turns down proposition to
finance doubtful perfect.
The value of being known cerful bank
a bank whose every official is always the
alert, and in whose Judgment depositors can re-
pose the fullest confidence, should appeal tt
financial institutions as a matter of business
The controller of the currency bureau, in calling
attention to this laxity the part of bank di
rectors, is voicing a sentiment which finds al
echo throughout the length and breadth of the
commercial world. The banks should welcome
such amendment as Controller Williams suggests
and congress should see that it becomes part O.
the banking laws.-Lousville Times.

VETERAN OF INDIAN
CONTINUED from page ~

Sergeant Wilson says, that General
Mackenzie started out to round up a
large war party of Comanches. The
trail led through the desolate Staked
Plains Of northern Texas, a country
cut up with high plateaus and deep
gorges, and the trail was a wearisome
one to man and beast. Late one after
noon the scouts reported an Indian
camp few miles ahead and MacKen-
zie decided to halt for the night and
attack early in the morning. His OBJ
Ject was to secure possession of the
squaws and children and carry them
Off to their reservation, knowing the
bucks would soon return to their fam
ilies
But the war party was aware of the
presence of the troops and shortly be.

| attack and stampeded nearly all the
horses of the cavalry. Mackenzie
swore long and loudly in his chagrin
Finally he ordered Captain Huyler to
mount his troop with the majority OF
the remaining horses and try and gel
IN touch with the hostiles, hoping by
this maneuver to secure the STAN
peded mounts. Huyler's command
trotted off and disappeared over g
high plateau. An hour later the SOUND
OF sharp firing was heard

This caused fresh outbreak o.
profanity on the part of General Mac

exclaimed, and he surveyed the groul
surrounding him. He noticed Ser

that the ducks had not been so nu-
merous during the spring and breeding
season for many years and which was
wholly due to the fact that the new
federal law operated to a great extent
in preventing them being molested.

duced by Representative Thompson, OF
Minnehaha. Salaries range from 5000.
in the smallest counties, to $4,000 In
the largest. Mileage is only allowed
for overland travel. and all railroad
fare and other expenses are to be for
actual money paid out as shown by

county prisoners will be paid for on
basis OF actual cost. The sheriff Is
allowed no per diem or mileage for con-
veying prisoners to penitentiary or In

only remuneration for his actual ex-
penses.
Figures which Mr.. Thompson has
collected show that counties are spend

believes a great saving will be effected
by having these fees turned into the
county and cutting out extra charges
for transporting prisoners and insane

FAVORABLE REPORT MADE ON
ROSEBUD NORMAL SCHOOL


Pierre. 8. D., Feb. 22.-The public
buildings committee OF the senate has
favorably reported the bill to establish
a normal school at Bonesteel. Thg
Rosebud people have made deter
mined fight for the normal but re-
ceived a check when the house refused
to abolish the school at Springfield.
There We're enough votes In sight to

on whom they had counted, dashed

stitution still extant, and considering
the attitude of the house on approprta1
lions. they have an uphill fight to get
the Bonesteel measure through.

which held several sessions with for
mer State Auditor Henry b. Anderson
as witness. has since examined DR..
@. q. Redfield, member and secretary
or the state board of charities and cor
