Oregon, through Its next legislature, Is to adopt li e Oklahoma stule bank tn law. tho keynote of which Is de posits guaranteed to the customers f every bank In the state, provided tho efforts of A.

As soon as ths bonks are balanced and the accounts owed by the bank put In such shape that pay ments niuy be made the crodltors will bo puld in full by the state official, first out of the cash on hand, and when that Is none chocks will be drawn iisulnft tho reaerve account held by tin- slate iretiHurer.

If there Is a deficiency th state fund will bear the Ions, while If there should be more tlnwi enough It will be turned over to the persons to whom the money would belong In the usual cloning; up of the affairs of the Institution. These aro the special features of i the Oklahoma law, which is supposed be tho one statute In operation In the 1'nlted Htiites ulvinir tlie most com TAX DELINQUENTS PAY HEAVY FINE Ths tax collection department of tho sheriffs office Is maklnff an effort to 'clean up the delin quencies of personal taxes as far as possible, t hief Deputy Mar tin suys that he believes th amount unpaid Is less than It has ever been before, and ths, most bf It Is due In small sums, the great majority being; llttls more than tl. Recently statements haT been malted to all the personal tax dellnijucnts, and this Is bringing; many responses from those who apparently had forgotten that their taxes had not been paid. As the taxes became delinquent In April, when 10 per cent pen alty was Imposed, and Interest Is now being added at the rata of 1 per eont per month, 18 per cent must be added to the orig inal tax to pet the total figures that have to be met depositors of !

Winters has begun second suit for divorce from George A. L. Winters in the circuit court. In March, 1907. she entered suit on the ground of desertion, but reconciliation of some degree took place, although the 'wife did not take the trouble to dls miss the case. Now she Is trying again 'on the ground of cruelty. i Mrs. Winters alleges that on June 80 her husband threatened her life with a chair, and that he did many other things to disturb her peace of mind. She asks permission to resume the name or Ber tha E. Bohle and to be awarded $30 per month allimony. They were married In Portland December 21, 101. " Dine at the Nortonia. A nice cool place for luncheon and dinner Is the Hotel Nortonia. Meals served eirher In dining-room or on roof garden. The Hotel Nortonia has the onlv roof garden in the city, and over looks the whole city and Is proving quite popular for dinner parties. and by the fact.that the present bank Ing law of the state Is vague, am blgaous, Incomplete and in many cases ineffective. Mr. Orton has decided to concentrate his efforts during the com ing session towards putting the Okla homa bankirit; law on the statute books In p'ace of those now them. The Oklahoma law was Incorporated In the constitution of that state about a year ago when the tcriitoiy was ad mitted to statehood, and was the re sult of long and careful consideration by the framerg of tlie constitution. Its essential feature Is tho protection of the depositors of any and all banks of the state, which protection Is se cured by means of a reserve fund kept on deposit with the state treasurer and made up of contributions from all banks doing business in the state. It is believed this will provide abso lute protection to depositors and guard them against loss or delay In payment In the event of the suspension or fail ure of a bank no matter its size or strength. According to the provisions of the law each bank Is required to pay from time lo time a certain percentage of Its total deposits into the st-ite treas ury. This percentage Is fixed by law and at all times each bank must have on deposit with the state treasurer such an amount as will meet the ratio. The total fund created by these pro portional assessments Is invested In safe and steady paying bonds and other gilt-edged securities, so that it In times of financiai prosperity will be come a stendlly increasing fund to be held In reserve against the time of fi nancial depression and need. Payments Come Promptly. In the event of a bank failure the suspended Institution Is given Into the eharpe of the bank examiner or other official designated by the law and pay ment of the depositors begins as soon as ths amounts due them have boon plcte protection to the bonking institutions. I luring the past month or more Mr. Orton has been making nn exhaustive study of tho law in order to bo able to fight the passage of the bill of his adoption through the two houses of the legislature. lie has securud practically all of the discussions and articles written both for and against the law. It is evident that there will be a big fight made by many of the bank ers on the measure, and If It do-s finally rass both houses It will be on'y after a hard battle. Many of the bank ers object to tho tax levied upon thorn for the creation of the state fund, argu- I ing that their banks, which are or course solid under all conditions, should not be mndo to pay for tho wildcat methods of less conservative Institu tions. It Is believed by Itlr. Orton, however, that the members of tho egls lature will take the view that the bank ing fraternity as a class should stand back of their business -, in the protec tion of all depositors who entrust their money to the keeping of banks. Wheth er the bill passes or not It will un doubtedly be made tho storm center around which will be waged one of the big legislative fights of the 1309 session. BRICK FIRE HOUSES ARE RECOMMENDED At a meeting of the fire committee of the city executive board yesterday aft ernoon the members recommended to the council that all fire stations In the future be constructed of brick Instead of the present style of frame buildings. The members also recommend that ground be secured for the erection of a machine shop for the fire department. A request from City Electrician Bav arian for supplies for the new under ground system on the east side caused the members to instruct the city auditor to write to Cltv Attorney Kavanaugh for an opinion as-to the manner to pro ceed in requiring the Home Telephone company to furnish the material. The telephone company Is sunnosed to pro vide this material free of charge, ac cording to its franchise. Everybody should be Interested. page 5.
