BANK RULING
GOV. BYRNE THINKS FEARS OF
SOME BANKERS WILL PROVE
GROUNDLESS.

Aberdeen, Sept. 25.-Frank M.
Byrne, en- route to Lennon. gave out
a statement relative to the ruling of
the state banking department requir-
ing that so per cent of the legal re-
serve of all state banks be kept on
deposit in state banks of South Da-
kota. There has been considerable
criticism of this ruling by state and
national banks. and recently a dele
CATION waited on the governor in an
effort to have this ruling revoked,
but without avail, as the majority of
the bankers of the state seem in favor
OF the ruling and its provisions.
In speaking of this ruling, Gov.
Byrne said:
II am satisfied that this new pro-
vision will work out well in the end
and not entail any hardship upon any
person or institution. | recognize
that there is some apprehension that
this ruling will work hardships and
inconvenience in places, and yet
am satisfied that time will demon
strate that il will not.
For six years / have advocated
some system to guarantee bank de
posits. based on the simple PROPOSE
ton that when the state charters a
bank and grants it permission to use
the name of this state, we should &c
a step farther and provide some as
surance to the people who put theil
money into such banks hat they viii
get ii back again, not nine times GU
of ten. or 80 times out of 100, bui
100 times out of 100.
This proposition also was siren
uously opposed by bankers, acting IL
the best of faith and honest in theil
opinions, on the grounds that i
would disturb and disarrange theil
business, but now that this law has
been passed. and wen before IL has
gone into effect, all are anxious for
and all seem convinced that it will d.
no harm TO them, but will rathe'
work TO the advantage of the bank a
well as to the people.
Il also am satisfied that the Tea
bankers have of this order in ques
ton will prove to be as groundless a
i'm the case of the bank guaranty law
and that its real effect will be 7
strengthen and increase the useful
ness of the state banks.

BOY INSTANTLY KILLED
Steam Threshing Engine Explosion
Costs Life of John Hanson.

Woonsocket, Sept. 25.-The explo-
sion of a steam threshing engine on
the Paul Kenske farm, north OF
Woonsocket, instantly killed John
Hanson, jr., the 1S-year-old son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. John Hanson, and Sc
riously injured the owner of the out

fragrants. some of which were found
a quarter of a mile away.

There are hundreds Of people on the

hard for the average person to realize
