concession it can be called, is fully
agreed to on the part of capital, we

the value of their labor, 1t must upon
the principle of right be mutual, and
if there is necessity for low wages

of blood shed or serious trouble in the
rear future.

SEDALIA AND her BANKS,

This community is favored one in
more ways than one. Its banking
Institutions have all stood solid, firm
and reliable. Recently Sedalia was
startled by the announcement that the
Savings bank, one of its oldest and
most substantial banks would go into
voluntary liquidation and inviting the
depositors to call for their money.
This is the second time in the history of
Missouri that such thing has occurred
that bank has gone into voluntary
liquidation and paid depositors dollar
for dollar. without closing its doors
This is monument of honor and In.
tegrity to the men who managed and
conducted the destinies of the Sedalia
Savings bank. The unfortunate cir
cumstances which brought all this
about are painful in the extreme, but
from behind all this will shine the
character of those who stood at the
helm, as solid bulwark, to protect
those who had bestowed upon them
their confidence.
