CLAIM AeENcY.-The reader will please
notice the advertisement of A. W. Beman, in
this paper, as Licensed Goverhment Claim
Agent. All business entrusted to his care
will be faithfully attended to. In this connec-
tion wesdesire to say that parties having this
kind of business to transact should not be de-
.ceived by the circulars or statements of for
eign agents, to the effect lthatattey alone can.
do the business. This is all untrue. The
facilities such agents have do not exceed those
of agents in our midst. They have no spe-
.sas privileges---they always charge higher
prices, and.from the fact that many are locked
upon with the suspicion attending "sharks''
1T frequently occurs that there is delay and
loss in doing business through them. The
safest and best way is to employ a home
agent who is known and reliable, to prosecute
all classes of government claims. =,
