Looks Like a Combine.


The county court met Monday.
June IA, for the purpose, among
other things, of receiving bids, if
any, from the various banking
institutions, that wished to be.
come the depositary for the funds
of Charlton county for the next
two years, but only one bid was
sent in, which was from the Men.
don State bank. and that was
withdrawn before nocn, the hour
set by law for opening bids. On
the first day of the regular May
term of county court there wer !,
three bids, but court did not meet
in time to open the bids and they
were returned to the three banks
that made them. namely: The
Mendon State bank, the Farmers
bank of Triplett and the Bank of
Keytesville.
An effort was made at that
time by several other bankers in
the county to prevent any bids,
but was unsuccessful. This time
what looks like q bankers com.
bine had matters 80 completely
under control that the one bid
which was made was withdrawn
after that bank got in telephone
connection with one of the mem
bers of the supposed bankers
combine which is oonstitutionally
and otherwise opposed to paying
the county interest on her du.
cats.
The questions now arise: Were
the bids of May 8 made in good
faith? If 80, why were they not
made again?
Can il be that these bidders
have been promised larger
share of the county's deposits
than heretofore and have bowed
down to the subtle influence of
what is apparently a bankers
combine and induced to believe
that q crumb for nothing is better
than q whole loaf if even q small
rate of interest is to be paid?
A large number of Missouri
counties are now drawing inter.
est on their deposits and there is
no reason why Charlton county
should not be doing the same
thing, provided the bankers com-
| bine is put out of business.
It is unfortunate for the banks
which put in bids Monday, May
8, that they diG not again make
bids, and thus have placed them
selves beyond the suspicion of
having "jined the combine"
( We don't think much of q
thing when it bears the stamp of
not having been done in good
faith. If a bid was worth while
Monday, May 8, it was none the
less so Monday, June IA.
The county court has done all
it could to rectify its mistake of
not meeting before noon Monday,
| May 8, to pass upon bids at noon
that were then on file. The failure
of the court to act at that time
gave the bankers combine more
than q month to get together,
and it has done 80.
+ Other combines are illegal.
Why not q bankers combine?

Letter from s.Aunt" Millie.

Mrs. Mary DlvllDlss or this city
is in receipt of a letter from her
aunt, Mrs. DR.. Bowman, who will
also be remembered in this com.
munity as Mrs. Millie c. Adams,
who made ber home near Bell
scho olhouse for many years, but
now lives in Sherman, Tex. She
says that her twins, Rolfe and
Reg, are now pact 80, and Nolan
and Harry are % and 26, re-
spectively. Rolfe is married and
has baby boy whom he named
for DR.. Bowman. Reg is sill
single. Another son, Clarence,
is in Salt Lake City, Utah, and
Harr, is in Peoria, Ill. Mrs.
8owman's eldest son, Birdie
Millard, is travelling advertising
ae ent for the Illinois Traction Co.
at Springfield, ILL.,, and has three
boys. Her second SOD, Minnis
Adams, is living at Alvs, Okla.
Mrs. Bowman says she has eight
grand children, all boys, except
Minnis Adams eldest, which is
her only grand daughter. Dr..
Bowman has gone to the harvest
fields of Oklahoma and Kansas
and expects to remain till after
threshing time. Mrs. Bowman
admits that she will be SO years
old next November, but the tone
of her letter would indicate that
she still retains much of her old.
time vim, as che acknowledges
that she can still talk q little.
She sends her love to each and
everyone of her kin and friends
and says to tell them she is still
Aunt Mile, Cousin Millie and
Miss Millie to the whole of Char.
iton county just as she was 20
years ago. Mrs. Divilbiss has

Another Brunswick Burglary.

The sneak thief has again been
plying his nefarious vocation at
Brunswick. This time he visited
the residence of B. F. Dameron
at an early hour Wednesday
morning and stole a purse con.
tanning between So and 81, that
belonged to Mrs. Dameron, from
a table in the room in which Mr..
and Mrs. Dameron were sleeping.
The intruder awakened the oc.
oupants of the room, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Dsneron arose to make an
investigation. They found the
empty purse lying on the kitchen
floor, but the burglar and the
money were gone.
The Brunswioker says that
the boldness with which burgla.
ries have been committed in
Brunswick during the past few
months is astonishing. 1t looks
as if Brunswick will have to es.
tablish a system of all night
police to protect the property of
the citizens from the depreds.
