nsgn The following is the salutatory of
an Oregon editress; "Wehave served a reg
ular apprenticeship at working-washing,
scrubbing, patching, darning, ironing
plain sewing, raising babies, milking,
churning and poultry raising. We have
kept boraders, taught school, taught music,
written for the newspapers, made speeches,
and carried on ar extensive millinery and
dressmaking business. We can prove by
the public that this work has been well
done. Now, having reached the age of SO,
and having brought up family Of boys to
set type, and daughter to run the millin-

a newspaper, and we intend to establish it

people to the great west to her ad.

Chicago the superior advantages of

We do not urge the people to vote
for Mr.. Martin because he had lost all
his property by fire, but because he is
better man for assessor and treasurer
than Mr.. Miller, who does not want the
Office and would neglect its duties if
elected We charge, very distinctly,
that if Mr.. Miller is elected he will not
assess the county and will not perform
the other duties Of the office-that, in
other words, the election of Mr.. Miller
would not be the election of an assessor
and treasurer for Alexander county but
the appointment by ballot of Miller to
select for the people man, who, in his
opinion, would be able and COM
petent to do the duties of the
Office for which he is ostensi-
bly, candidate. A vote for Mil
Ter will be vote for Smith, or Jones,
or Brown-for the man Miller may Sc +.
lect to do the duties Of the Office he
cannot afford to ell in person. The in.
come Of the treasurer's Office is less than
81, 900 per year, and Miller would be
very foolish if he were to neglect his
own business for so triAing an amount.
On the other hand, Mr.. Martin can give
all his time and attention to the
duties Of the Office and needs even the
small income which it will bring to
him. He has gone by that point in
life when he can earn money by the
use of his muscle, and he has not, as
Mr.. Miller has, profitable business on
which he can rely for the bread which
We all must have in this world of appe-
titles and craving stomachs. We, there.

tinction of party to vote for Billy Mar

DAY" The carpet trade statistics this sea-
son show that while the trade is very quiet,
the prices Of both foreign and domestic
carpets have materially advanced. In an
ticipaton of rise this fall, large stock
Of carpets were held over from the spring
sales. The prices of foreign carpets have
increased twenty per cent and domestic
fifteen per cent, as compared with the
prices of last fall Among the finer quail
ties, Brussels appears to be in great de-
mand, and is generally preferred to vel
vets. The Brussels have recentlysbecome
very fashionable and in consequence the
demand is increasing. In many instances
velvet carpets are being removed to make
way for the more fashionable Brussels.
