1t is to be regretted that the
failure of the bank involves the
Etna mills, which are owned by the
bank. They will be closed also.
This is unfortunate although they
have been run only enthusiastically
for some months past because Of the
lack OF means to operate them full
time.
While we regret this bank failure,
yet inaSmCch as it has to come sooner
or later, it is a relief to know that it
is over and done with so far as the
general business interests of the city
are concerned. Its condition during
thepaSt two or three years, and more
especially during the past eighteen
months, has been a constant menace
to all sorts Of business. 1t was liable
TO fail any Gay. The other banks and
business men generally knew this.
Its failure was liable to precipitate
panic and a run on other banks. Con.
sequently these banks have been com.
pelled TO keep on hand a large cash
reserve: to restrict their lOaning oper-
ationS and TO refuse many good loans
while the cash lay idle in their vaults.
This was good judgment and sound
business policy, but the result was a
general stagnation of business and
worked many hardships upon those
who really needed accommodations
from the banks. The suspense is now
over and business will soon get back
into its usual channels.-Mail, 22d.

Thomas MurDhu.

But little has been said about our
candidate for commissioner in the
south district. He is a good, care
ful, conscientious business man, has
made success in life for himself
and possesses the frmness of char
acter and good judgment that will
make him splendid servant of the
people.
Thomas Murphy was born May /,
1914, in Davies county, Missouri.
He was raised on farm. In August
1861, at the age Of IS, he enlisted in
the volunteer service from Missouri
in the war of the rebellion. He was
with Col. Mulligan at the battle of
Lexington, and later, April 6, 1862,
was in the memorable battle of
Shiloh, (Tenn.) with Gen. Ben. NJ.
Prentiss. AT that battle he served
in the center Of the line of Gen.
Prentiss' brigade and with the bal
dnce of the brigade was taken 'ptis-
oner on the evening Of that day. He
served a long term in the numerous
rebel prisons, enduring the usual
hardships.
AT the close OF the civil war he
went west and travelled over nearly
all the territories of the western half
of the United States. He spent two
years in the service of the Indian
department with headquarters at
Fl. Sill,I. T., was with Gems. Sheridan
and Custer on the border of Kansas
and eastern Colorado in 1868, dur.
ing the whole Indian campaign,
which closed the spring Of '69. He
was also with Gen. Forsyth on
the Republican river in one
Of the hardest fought Indian battles
Of the frontier, so declared by the
Indians engaged in it and by every
one else familiar with Indian history.
Mr.. Murphy has been on the
frontier all Of his life and claims to
be one Of the pioneers Of county.
He travelled through this county be-
fore it was inhabited. He settled
here in '67 and with the exception
Of the two years spent at Fl. Sill, he
has lived here ever since. He locat-
ed on his present farm in Falls town
ship in 1879. He has always been
a good citizen, and has become
successful farmer and stock. grower.
His neighbors have shown their ap-
probation Of his good citizenship by
making him township trustee in
times past, and he will undoubtedly
poll very strong home vote for
commissioner. He possesses the
requisite qualities to make him a
splendid commissioner and if elected
the people may rely on his standing
for economy and retrenchment.

Died.

At 1910 o'clock Monday night, the
spirit of Miss Lizzie Richardson passed
peacefully to an eternal rest anu its
mortal casket was forever free from
the pain Of suffering humanity. The
deceased was a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Richardson of this city
and had been employed In her fathers
store until the impaired condition of
her health forbade her further pres
ence at her work. She began her
work at La Grange, No., but after
ward went to Quincy, ILL.,, where she
was employed with the firm Of Joseph
& Nelke. After seven years in the
employ of this firm, she came to this
city and again began her work in her
fathers store. She soon proved her
self very efficient aud was made the
purchaser of goods for the firm.
The deceased was a membor of the
Baptist church, CONSTANT chris
tian and a persistent worker while
her health permitted. She died as
she had lived, a noble example of
true christianity. All during her
long months OF her physical agony,
she displayed naught but the most
patient spirit. She was the friend Of
all good, the enemy of naught but
the wrong. Those who knew her
were her friends, and in her illness,
her sympathizers were many.
The funeral services were held at
O'Clock yesterday afternoon.
