Guthrie, Okla., Jan. 7.—Oklr.hoim
having become first in so many tinny
it is only befitting tha',. it should be first
this presidential year in casting itb
sentiment for Bryan in order that tin
waves of its popularity may again reach
the farthest shores of the country. Gov-
ernor Haskell claims that Oklahoma is
for Bryan by 50,000 and he believes that
it doesn't matter what the Republicans
do the great commoner will be the next
president. Hence he wears a Bryan
button always in the lapel of his coat.
Oklahoma will have about 1,400 dele-
gates in the first state convention
which meets at Muskogee on Washing
ton's birthday, there having lieen alwut
140,000 votes cast for Governor Has-
kell at the recent election. It is esti-
mated that 3,000 peofle will attend that

Guthrie, Okla., Jan. s. Nearly every-
body thought the depositor's guaranty
law wfcich thu legislature passed liefnr'
the holidays was satisfactory alike to
depositors and stat.' and national
banks, but there seems to have arisen
an opposition to it on the ground that
the comptroller of tlie currency will
not permit the national banks to avail
their depositors of the protection af
forded Hence a committee of banker:
met here yesterday and adopted resolu-
tions asking that the law be amended.
They (Tilled on Governor Haskell in tin
evening and with the governor and
Senator ltoddie ami Representative
Williams, the authors of the law, dis
enssed the several objectionable fea-
tures, with the result that the commit-
tee went away app:wently satisfied that
the law is as good as conld be passed.
The comptroller of the currency has
refused to pass definitely upon the
proposition of permitting national banks
of the state to take advantage of the
protection afforded by the law and has
requested that a national bank make
application to the state banking com
mission, that this application lie refer
red to the comptroller, and then he
will take proper action. Hence the
banking commission awaits with a good
deal of interest the first application
from a national bank.

"Well, how are you, cap'n, and how's

A few weeks ago in a village a few
miles from Mexico City a citizen went
to the alcalde and complained thut a
boy ten years old had stolen and car-
ried away his donkey. He insisted
that the boy had carried the animal
on his shoulder. The police laughed
at the idea, but when the lad was ar-
rested it was shown that the state-
ment was true. The boy bad -carried
a good-sized donkey a quarter of a
mile on his shoulder withoufc-a stop.
He did the trick again for the benefit
of the police.
Various tests were made of his

very close place, somewhote between riches and starvation. So the jig's up and we
