lsSiSnment.
Universal surprise and regret was ex-
hlblted by the people OF the city when ii
was announced last Saturday morning
that the Bank of Milbank had closed its
doors and made an assignment for the
henetl! OF its creditors. The bank was
one OF the oldest institutions in the city,
and was owned by VIM NJ. Sargent of
Minneapolis, and d. w. Diggs the resi-
dent manager of this city, both of whom
are largely interested in the agricultural
Interests OF this section, having two
large farms, one at Corona of over 600
acres and the Home farm adjoining
Milbank, consisting of over 2,200 acres.
The assignment was made to Hon.
S. II. Gold, of Big Stone City, al
gentleman whose integrity will assure
the creditors fair treatment and whose
business ability and acquaintance with
the value Of the landed property will
turn the assets to the best account As
yet no exact statement of the liabilities
or assets OF the bank has been secured,
but the assignee and accountants are at
work upon the books, and it is generally
hoped that when a statement can be
made it will show assets that will fully
meet the Indebtedness. The assets be-
ing largely in lands and farm property II
may take some time to turn them into
available funds, but it is hoped and be
lieyed that this can eventually be done
without serious loss to the deposltors
the earnest desire OF both Mr.. Sargent
and Mr.. Diggs, the latter Of whom has
always stood high in the community, be
inc one of the oldest settlers in the
county, and one of the most active busi-
ness men OF the city, ever ready to
forward all public enterprises and pro
mote the general good of the commu-
nifty, and his friends seriously regret the

eduess can be effected OF course since
tile failure many ramors have been
atloat. but these should be taken with
due allowance until such time as an
authentic statement can be made OF the
exact condition OF the affairs of the bank.
and well grounded opinion can be
formed. Until such time let judgment
be suspended. One of the most deplor-
able features of the failure is the loss to
deposltors, this loss in many instances
representing the savings and accummla-
tons OF years of those who can i'll afford
TO suffer, and on behalf of them it is
earnestly hoped that the failure will not
prove disastrous one. Another
dealorable feature is the general shak-
inc Of public confidence which follows a
shock OF this kind, but we are pleased to
state that in this instance it has had no
serious effects, the other two banking
institutions OF the city being on per-
fectly solid basis and standing ready to
meet all obligations.

Morris is and always has been
proud of her public schools. There
are fine well-equipped buildings and
neat and attractive grounds. The
teachers employed are always of the
best and that the people appreciate
their school advantage is shown by
the uniform record of large atten-
dance. The school will open for the
coming year On Tuesday, Sept. 5th,
and that the coming year will be one
of growth and progress, no one doubts.
The free text book system has been
adopteu in accordance with the las
passed last winter and Mr.. D. T.
Wheaton, clerk of the school board,
will have something to say to readers
of The Sun in next weeks issue con-
cerning the change. The corps of
teachers for the coming year is as fol

On Saturday last Guy T. Gould,
a United States Postofice Inspector
from Chicago, passed through Morris,
having Harry Vandref in custody.
Harry Vandref was assistant Post
master at Browns Valley for a long
time and is now under arrest for hav-
ing rifed registered mail. Vandref
proved himself an expert in his
wrong doing. It seems he worked
only at night. He would carefully
and slowly steam the registered pack
ages till they were easily opened.
He would then appropriate the con-
tents and carefully re-seal the pack
ages and send them on. No one
would be the wiser till at destination
the registers wound be found to be
empty. The peculations continued
for about year and it seemed next
to impossible to find who was to
blame. Finally Mr.. Gould took hold
of the matter. and by careful detective
work, located the guilty party.
When confronted with the evidence
secured against him, Vandref made a
full confession. Again it is illustra-
ted that no person can tamper with
Uncle Sans mail in any way without
being caught sooner or later.

We Never Sleep.

This is the striking and probably
very appropriate motto of the celebra-
ted "Pinkerton Detective Agency" !"
which has seldom failed in any at
tempt it has made to track and hunt
down criminals, be they ever so cum
ming. At any rate, whether the de-
tectives "never sleep" or not, it is
pretty certain that a man who knows
'the Pinkertons" are on his trail will
not sleep very much nor very soundly.
This not sleeping may do very we'll
for detectives and Crooks" but it
does not suit the travelling public nor
the Burlington Route. Accordingly,
this enterprising line-the Chicago,
Burlington & Northern-has placed
in service the unsurpassed vistibuled
trains of the famous Pullman Com
pany, which ensure the through pas,
senger an undisturbed and delightful

accomodations can secure them in adj

Times are sure to be "hard" and
money scarce for some time to come
Plans for the future, therefore, will
have to carefully made. Through
out this Northwest the credit system
has been generally adopted, aud mer-
chants have extended accommoda-
ttiens in large amounts toau classes OF
their customers, and new il any OF
| them are having hard time to tide
over this period of general business
depression, it is because they have
been too lenient for their own good,
That this credit system has occupied
an important place in local business
affairs can not be denied, though for
tunately it has not been carried SO fan
as to threaten the solvency of any OF
our business men. The system is
now being discarded in many inn
portant places, and whether any
changes in business methods will be
made here or not remains to be seen.
Meanwhile it will be interesting to
note how those who have been the
benefciaries will requite the favors
shown them under this system;
whether or not those who have been
helped through close times in the
past, by being freely given all the
credit needed, will now remember
their obligations. When paying time
comes, it seems to us that home busi-
ness-men and home emerchants should
receive first consideration. If they
do not, and if land payments and 9th
er outside obligations are allowed to
take the bulk of the proceeds of the
present crop, and home businessmen
are given only what is left, or what it
is convenient to pay them, some radi-
cal changes in local business meth
DDS may be confidently expected.
Those who have been helped
through this and other seasons now
have an opportunity to show how
much they appreciate these past fav-
ors and at the same time to what ex-
tent they are worthy of credit in the
future.
