is the proposed national central bank.
It is the' common belief that it will |
form the basis of the curative legis- j
hulen to be recommended by the
nil uetary commission, an.l President ,
Taft, in his recent Boston speech, sig
nilied his own favorable disposition :
toward.', the l>i'oj"ct.
"A bank of the people and for tin
people," is the definition of this iusti j
tutlon made by George M. Reynolds
president of the American Hankers' :
association, in bis Chicago speech. j
li" pointed out that under the pro-I
pose11 plan the pcopde were to be tha
stockholders, for anyoiii would be
privileged to buy the bank stock just
as he might a government bond.
j A small interest on such an invest-
nvent would be guaranteed by the gov-
! ernment; any earnings more than suf-
j ficient to pay the guaranteed interest
would be shared by the government
and by the stockholders.
Political control of the great bank
I would be made at least extremely dif-
ficult, by the life appointment of tho
officers, it is declared by those advo
eating the scheme. Integrity of opera
: tion it is claimed would be assured
by tho board of supervisor;-, appointed
j by the president, the secretary of the
j treasury and the comptroller of the
currency, (subject to the approval of
the senate) for alternate terms.
Thus would be met the objections
I founded upon the history of the old
1'nitvd States bank, lliat the Central
Hank might be prostituted to political
uses .mil be made a powerful engine
for tin perpretuntlon in power of on ■
party. It is not intended that the Cen-
tral Hank should support the credit of
the nation.
If the national government needs
funds, it must continue in the old way
to borrow money from the world at
lai'.ae by the sale of bunds.
Tie single purpose of this projected
bank would be to safeguard the bus-
iness interests of the people in their
private relations. If there were need
for more money for business purposes
file 11 ink would supply it by notes
and if there were a plethorta these;
notes would be withdrawn rapidly.

longed opposition when laid before

Another Blow to Law Violators.
Guthrie, Okla.— The Oklahoma su-
preme court has handed down a de-
cision iu the interstate shipment case,
reversing tho decision of the criminal
court of appi ais and holding that the
control of the interstate commerce
laws ovet interstate shipments in Ok-
lahoma ends with the delivery by the
carrier to the consignee.
The supreme court decision by .lus-
tlce Williams, all other justices con-
curring, holds as follows: The laws
of this stale, by virtue of the police
power, attack immediately after the
consummation of i!v delivery by the
carrier to the consignee. That is,
liquors are subject to seizure as soon
as the consignee has received the
quor trom the shippers.
The criminal court of appeals, m a
series ot opinions by Justice Doyle,
has estableslied the principle that the
interstate shipment is not subject to
state law until the consignee has si-
