able to win two races in succession.
Last week Miss Harris M. won, but
it will take prophet to tell the win
ner over Lexington's fast track next

BARBED WIRE AND THE WAR
EST. Louis Globe-Democrat.)

Est. Louis Globe-Democrat.)
The part that barbed wire has
played in the war is reflected to some
extent by the foreign commerce re-
ports. This is peculiarly an Ameri-
can product, the Blidden invention
having been first utilized on a large
scale by John w. Gates at st. Louis.
The descriptions from the front show
the effective use made OF this simple
invention, which the late Senator
ingalls, said was suggested by the
manner in which he milk cows
avoided bramb1e bushes. It was wo-
ven and twisted into barrier that
seemed impregnable until the British
developed the use of artillery in such
amazing fashion. The study Of forth
fications has been followed from the
beginning of human history and it is
a singular fact that a simple fencing
device, designed for an untimbered
country should surpass every other
obstacle to progress OF a modern
army.

BILL WOULD PLACE
BANK EXAMINER UNDER
CORPORATION BOARD
IMPORTANT AMENDMENT TO
BANKING LAW PASSED uNANI-
MouSLY BY SENATE; INTRO
DucED BY BANKER

A bill which places the state bank
examiner and the records and files
of his Office under the control and
supervision of the state corporation
commission, was passed unanimously
by the senate late Saturday after
noon. 1t is s. B. 211, and was intro
duced by w. ID. Murray, the banker
senator from Grant.
The measure was prepared by At.
torney A.. B. Renehan, of this city,
particularly as a result of the con
troversy over the right of the state
bank examiner to issue or refuse
charters to banks. This right was
questioned by Mr.. Renehan in a re-
cent letter to State Bank Examiner
Rufus H. Carter, on the ground that
the constitution provides that "the
state corporation commission shall be
the department of government through
which shall be issued all charters for
domestic corporations" The Office of
state bank examiner vas established
and the powers and duties prescribed,
by the banking law passed by the 1915
legislature.
The bill passed by the senate Sat
urday amends the present banking
law, making it possible for the organ
izers of any bank refused a charter
by the bank examiner to appeal to
the state corporation commission and
later to the supreme court. Right of
appeal, in the event his decision is
not sustained, also is granted the bank
examiner. Approval by the corporation
commission of all steps taken by the
bank examiner in bank administration
is made necessary. Provision for the
issuance, by the corporation commits
sion, to every bank organized under
the 1915 law, of a certificate validat-
ing its creation is contained in the
bill. sat
Senator Barth, of Bernalillo, at
tempted to amend section 3 of the
bill, which amends section IA of the
banking law to provide that the bank
examiner, before he approves any APP
~plication for a charter, shall determine
whether the organizers ARE of good
moral character and reputation, whe-
Their the probable field of activity can
fairly support a banking institution
with safety to depositors," and, in the
event one or more banks are already
in operation, whether the probable
field of activity can reasonably sup
port an additional bank" He urged
that the bank examiner should not be
required to investigate the moral
character of any applicant for a bank
charter, and expressed fear that the
provision making it possible for the
examiner to hold that the field was
not large enough or not promising
enough would result in giving a few
a comparatively monopoly of the
banking business. His motion to
amend was tabled by a vote Of IL to
8.

GAMBLING BILL IS
PASSED BY SENATE
Will Go to Governor AS
Soon as House Concurs
In Amendments

The Llewellyn gambling bill, which
passed the house some time ago, was
passed by the senate late yesterday
afternoon, with minor amendments,
by a vote of 20 to O. AS DON as the
senate amendments are %concurred in
by the house the bill will go to the
Lgovernor.
This is the bill that some Of the
house members voted for on the sup
position that it would protect "lady
gamblers" and others in the belief
THAT 1t wouldn't. The measure re-
|peals the present gambling statute,
and provides a penalty only for "any
person who for money or anything OF
value conducts or operates any
game Of chance, by whatsoever name
known or played, or who willingly
permits any such game to be played
upon premises of which he is the
owner, lessor or occupant" Support
ers Of the bill argue that this will put
the professional gambler out Of bust
ness, as participants in gambling
games can testify without incriminat-
ing themselves, which is impossible
at present. Some contend that the
hostess at a bridge party where
prizes are given will be liable under
the act.
Four bills declaring roads state
highways we're passed by the senate
late yesterday afternoon. They fol-
low:
IS. b. 113. Road from TERRA

authorizing the state engineer to ex-
tend permits for the construction Of
irrigation works and power projects.
During the latter part Of yester-
days session the senate devoted It.
self to the consideration of s. B. 1853,
creating county boards of education
and amending the present law rela-
tive to the state board OF education.
The bill was considered by the senate
a committee of the whole, and
when 1t was decided to adjourn only
about half Of The 40 sections had been
passed upon. II was agreed to re-
sumo consideration or the measures,
as a special order at z:30 this after

The berth control bill introduced

sought primarily to impose a tax on
every Pullman car entering the state

tourist sleepers-but 1t also made it
a misdemeanor for any Pullman por-
ter to lower an upper berth unless the

Now that Alaska has risen to the

est in it's religious history is reawak-

there more than 100 years ago by
Russian traders, and various missions
were established. 1t was not the Cath
olic religion, however, but the Rus
sian orthodox faith.
The Catholic missionaries eventual
ly began work there, and it has re-
suited in bringing into the church
1850 converts, who constitute the
present Catholic population. All the
missions are in charge of the Jesuit
Fathers, to whom was assigned the
difficult work of building up the
church among the natives.
In 1916 there were % Jesuit priests,
10 Jesuit Brothers and 81 nuns of
different communities. The Sisters
conduct four boarding schools, five day
schools, six hospitals and one orphan.

The following order by the Presi-

the results obtained are so beneficial
and bear such direct relation to eff
