Mo. Editors' Comments Bank Receivers Eat White Bread An offer was made for the Peoples Bank Building and refused by the receiver, Mr. Griffin of Charleston. We don't know how much was offered, but guess the depositors would like to have the few remaining pennies coming to them. Mr. Griffin will continue to draw his salary and eat white bread.—Sikeston Standard. Merited Reward A recognition of real worth is the appointment of Tom Scott, retiring sheriff of Scott county, to the office of chief warden in the state penitentiary at Jefferson City. Mr. Scott has been a tireless worker for the Democratic party in this part of Missouri and has made an enviable reputation as a sheriff. His many friends are congratulating him on his selection for this important office, which is a well-deserved promotion.—Scott County Democrat.
