WEDNESDAY, UCT. 16, 1889 The poor crazy man is in jail, by order of Judge Sullens. He has been there for some six weeks and the county is footing the bill at one dollar a day. He could have been sent back home or to the asylum at Nevada for one fourth what it has already cost the county, yet the Banker President of the court keeps the poor imbecile in close confine- ment as though he was guilty ofa capital offense. There is about as much humanity in the Judge’s make- up as there is financial ability, and everybody knows just how much of the latter he possesses.—Butler Record. Dempsy Disney, a poor unfortu- nate, was running the streets a ter- ror to women and a nuisance to men. He was consequently confined in the county jail. His brother in Kentucky, when informed of his con- dition, wrote to Mr. Colyer that he would send for him. When the court met it was found that he was not a proper charge of the county, not having been a resident of the county for oneyear. As an induce- ment for the brother to come for him the court instructed Mr. Col- yer to write him that they would pay Dempsy’s fare back to Ky. Pending negotiations he is confined in the jail at 50 cents per day instead of $1.00 as claimed by the Record. If the court can dispose of him this way it can well afford to pay a little extra and save the cost to the coun ty of another permanent patient at the asylum. The Record was never known to do Judge Sullens justice, and its attacks are so little and con- temptable that that they are un- worthy a journal that lays claim to respectability. Judge Sullens should take lessons of O. D. Austin, the suc- cessful financie Secretary Noble has rendered a decision to the effect that Senator Manderson’s rerating was illegal and that under the decision Senator Man- derson has returned the special cer tificate given him by Commissioner Tanner. Under this decision most if not all, of the Corporal’s reratine certificates will be cancelled and the beneficiaries will have to disgorge. Tanner was but carrying out the idea held by most G. A. R.’s, that as the savior of the country, they own it, and consider it no robbery to takes one’s own wherever found. Now the query will naturally arise, since the republican party has re- fused to let them rob the treasury, what attitude will it place the grand army towards that party. Will the praetorian guard desert, and if sc, where will they go? But then we prophesy that at the proper time the republicans will introduce a Sweeping and nonsensical pension bill in congress that no democrat can support and retain his self. spect, and will then claim that the democrats defeat every measure meant to help the old soldier. The following quotation, from the pen of Private Dalzell, expresses the feeling of the old soldiers of the Union toward the administration for the shoddy and disgraceful way their best friend, Corporal Tanner, has been treated: “In Heaven’s name, what? Say it over slowly; spell it out word by word, ye hypocrities of hell! Republicans charge their pen- sion commissioner with granting too much pension! Tell it not in Gath; whisper it not on the streets ef As- kelon, lest the democrats revile you andthe soldiers despise you for knaves and hypocrites. In this sign alone we won the campaign and elected General Harrison. expressly on the promise of larger pensions. This alone elected Harrison; noth- ing else.” Acorrupt plot to hang the jury in the Cronin case at Chicago has been discovered. The defense in at- tempting to buy up the jurors offered from $1,000, to $5,000.

That is the duty of the property owners, but it is the duty of the city officers to see that they are built and repair- ed. If the existing ordinances are not sufficient to enforce this then other ordinances should be adopted. Strangers visiting our city take no tice of the condition of the sidewalks and cleanliness of streets the first thing and nine times out of ten form an estimate of the city from these things. One gentleman, high up in official railroad circles, who was vis- iting our city last week got a severe fall on one of our principal streets caused by a defective place in a side. walk. What kind of an impression will this gentleman form of our city? MISSOUR! STATE ‘BANK A Consolidation of Two Large Finan- cial Institutions. ienced Financiers. Its Managers Exy In another column will be found the ad. of the Missouri State Bank of Butler, Mo. This institution be gan business on the Ist day of tie present month, andis successor to the Butler National Bank and the Walton & Tucker Investment Co. The Missouri Siste Bank has 57 stockholders, 55 of thei living in the county, embracing many of our most substantial and well known citizens. The officers, Judge Suilens, Presi- dent; Judge Powell, Vice-President; Wm. E. Walton, Cashner aud J. R Jenkins, Assitant C: the same offic that for many years so successfully managed the Builer National Bank. The Missouri State Bank begins business under unusually favorable auspices. It suceceds the Butler National Bank and the Walton & Tucke Investment Co., and has the good will and prestige, as well as a large and yery protitable combined business of both institutions. Judge Sullens, President an Judge Powell, Vice President, are both old residents, substantial, ex perienced and conservative aud re cognized wherever known as gentle men of high character. Mr. Walton, cashier, has been an active and successful business man here for 19 years. He organized the Butler National Bank in 1880 and was its first and only cashier. In 1882 he organized the Waltoa & Tucker Investment Co. Probably no man in the county is better known than Mr. Walton. Both in stitutions did a profitable business. Much credit is due Mr. Walton for the untiring energy, industry and good practical business ability ex- hibited in the years of continuous labor bestowed by him to build up from a small beginning to the very large as wellas profitable business now centered in the Missouri State Bank, of which bank he is naturally and properly one of the its principal business officers. Mr. Jenkins, assistant cashier, has been a citizen for 20 years, having served two terms as clerk of circuit court and has had several years of practica’ experience in banking. His record as an honorable and success- ful business man is without a blot. The other employees, Don Kin- ney, Frank Allen, J. A. Norton and M. H Pigott are each experienced and well trained in his special de- partment of business and all enjo: the good will and confidence of the public. The Missouri State Bank with its large and growing business in the hands of the practical experienced business men that have devoted years of their lives to its building up and with a board of directors of our best citizens backed by half a hundred responsible stockholders— with nearly two millions doilars un- der its control and almost unlimited funds at its disposal, is an institu- tion of real merit and merit to the city and county and will be a source of pride to the community as well as profit to its many stockholders. shier are New Yorkers can now go to the theater at all times of the day.

Mrs. Kellner says that half has not been told of the suffering of the farmers living in the drought belt of Ramsey county. There have been three successive failures of the crops and over a hundred families are not only on the verge of starvation but without sufficient clothing to pro- tect them from the weather even at this season. Dozens of men, wo men and children are without stock- ings and many of thelittle ones have no other covering than ordinary gun- ny sacks with holes cut for the head andarms. For weeks these people have been subsisting upon roots and herbs, unti! now their supplies are wholly exhausied. Some flour has been sent in from the outside, but not enough to give each of the fam- ilies a supply for even one batch of bread. Unless relief is received very soon many must die of hunger. The matter of affording relief to the suffering has been referred by the mayor of St. Paul to the cham- ber of commerce and by that body placed in the hands ofa specie! com- mittee. Skins on Fire.
