'3IES. WINTERS AGAIN
: WISHES SEPARATION
.' Mrs. Bertha E. 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.
