The purview of this article is limited to such matters in relation thereto as are conformable with State law, and if any provision herein be in conflict with the State law on such subject, the same shall be taken and considered in the manner prescribed by State law as now in existence, or hereafter provided. The provisions of this article are and shall be deemed separable, so that if any thereof be inconsistent with the State law, such inconsistency shall not operate against the whole of this article, but the inconsistent provision, if any there be, shall be treated as provided in this section.
