JUDGE GALLOWAY DEFERS
FROM JUDGE H. K. HANNA
SCHOOL DELAYED
BY FRUIT CROP
in desolving the injunction sued out
by the liquor interests of Independence
to prevent the county court of Polk
county form making an order declar
ing Polk county dry as the result of the
last Juno election Judge Calloway in
open court at Dallas last week took
jiint the opposite view of the const rue
lion of the state statutes to that of
Judge II. K. (fauna, of the circuit court
for Jackson county when tho latter
ruled that the charter of Medford,
which gave the citv exclusive control
and regulation of the liquor traffic
and repealed all laws in conflict with
its provisions, took precedence over the
local option law.
The Medford cast is taken up to the
Hiiprcine court on appeal of the dryB,
and notice of appeal from tho decision
of Judge Calloway in the independence
rase has been given by the wets. The
decision of the supreme court in both
those cases, the Independence case being
identical to that of Medford, will doubt
lens be watrhed with much interest on
the part of both tho wet and dry ele
meats of the .state. Judge (ialloway
also sustained the motion of the defend
ant, county court of Polk count v. to
lissolve the injunction sued out bv the
liquor interests of Dallas.
The Dallas in junction suit was based
upon the question of local option and
the legality of the local option law
itself upon several grounds, tho priu
pal one of which was that the title
the Act cont ins over 200 words and
that initiative and referendum ainenc:
meat to the const if at ion provides that
the title shall contain no more than 200
words.
a. arson oi huh city repre
nled the plaintiffs in ln.Hi cases and
District Attorney John II. McN'arv un
penned on behalf of the state. Doth
cases will probably be nppenled; the
defendants in the Dallas case having
mx months in which to perfect
appeal Statesman.
CHTOO, Oil., August 2."i. The board
of education met this morning at 9
o'clock for tho purposo of acting upon
a petition presented by li. O. Rolls, locnl
agent for the f'alifornia Fruit ( 'a liners'
association, nnd signed generally by the
fruit men of tne district, asking that
the public schools of the city including
the Chico high cshool, pnstpoue their
dato of opening two weeks in order
that tho services of the children for
that period may bo secured.
Tho hoard agreed to postpone the
opening of the primnry and grammar
schools one wmtk, making September
14 the opening day. It was decided
not to delay the opening of the high
school, which will be on September 7,
fin there are but 12 high school students
working in the fruit. These will be,
privileged to make up for the lost timel
if they continue working in the can
neries or packing houses.
About one-half of tho school chll
dren employed in tho ennnery nre said
to be from the normnl trnhiing school,
so the n arm n 1 t rns t ees will be asked
to postpone the reopening of this school.
Thr regulnr date of opening of the
primary nnd grnmmar schools of the
city hns been the first Monday in Sep
teiaber, which this year falls on Sep
torn her 7. Not for a long period of
time have the school authorities been
nailed upon to jwntpono the opening of
the schools in order that the children
may work in the canneries, but this
yesr, because of the extra heavy crop
of peaches, which fruit comes in large
quantities to the canneries, the cor
porntions feel that they are called upon
to retain the school children two addi
tlonal weeks. Seven days ago a hi in i
!ar petition was granted bv the board
of education.

(Sacrumeoto
Although there has been much out
cry from certain banking interest a-
gainst the Bryan policv of guaranteeing
deposits through an imposition of a
clight tax upon tho total amount of the
deposits, the plan has worked well in
Oklahoma, whero it hns been in opera
tion since last February.
Astatement by the banking board of
the new state at the close of Juno shows
that while the unsecured banks, all of
the National, had bmt deposits to the
extent of $000,000, those National
banks which had come under the opera
tion of the law had gained in deposits
lo the extent of $ii45,n0o. And the
state banks, all of which were secured,
reported a total net increase in deposits
..r $3(SK.OOO.
Taft nhs attacked this policy, which
eoiistitufen one of the planks of the
National democratic platform, but it
certainly wins favor from the public,
and is destined to grow in popularity.
Admitting that it imposes a slight bur
den tin po the ban king busi ne.ss gen
erally the eax required is so very small
as to be virtually inappreciable. And
the benefits far more than compensate
for the costs, not alone to tho depositors
but to the banks as well, which are
large gainers through the confidence
such n law inspires, especially during
periods of stringency and panic.
Some months ago, when a bank failed
in Oklahoma, the stato banking board
took charge and announced Its readi
chh to make immediate payment in
full to every depositor. Tho money
for the purpose was available in the
state treasury , from the small tax I
ied upon tho banks for that especial
purpose, although tho institution which
failed was almost destitute of cash,
II:ul there been no state guaranty fund
the one failure might have precipi
tatwl a general panic, in which nil the
banks would have suffered henvilv, ns
II as the public.
this Oklahoma law, embodying the
Bryan policy, is somewhat simitar in
um to that feature of the National
Banking Act which guarantees full
payment of the notes issued bv the
National banks. National bankers make
no objection to that provision, however
much any of them may be opposed to
tne isrviin idea of protecting deposit
irs against loss. Hut whv should not
depositors bo protected, as well as the
holders of bank notes.
So long as National banks are per
mileii to isue paper money, instead of
the government, there is no sound rea
son for the requirment that, their notes
shall be ho secured that the holders c
noi lose. Ami there is even greater
reason lot laws to protect depositors
