and person buying a genuine
Singer sewing machine is not
taking any risks by way of ex-
perimcnting on a new kind Of
machine, but gets kind that has
stood the test of over thirty. five
years, and that has won the vic
tory over every other sewing ma
chine in the old and new worlds
Wherever you 60 abroad or at
home, it is the genuine Singer
sewing machine.
Furthermore, in last weeks
issue Birely ~ Son advertised the
"genuinc" Singer sewing machine
for S27, and | will say that they
have not had a Genuine" Singer
sewing machine in their store
since the Singer Co. have opened
their branch Office in Mineral
Point. Ii Birely & Son can pro-
cure and sell a genuine Singer
sewing machine for the above
figures and the style they quote, |
would advise all parties 20 buy
the genuine Singer of them, and
the Singer Go. will give them $50
for every such machine. Now |
will ask, how can person put
any confidence in q firm that will
advertise machines they have not
got? | advertise nothing more
than what | keep in stock, and
from this date | shall also keep
the bogus sewing machine, and if
parties will prefer (for the sake Of
4 few dollars buying bogus |
will sell him either II Stewart or
Canada Singer for SIS cash.
Having been schooled, as it were,
in the handling, operating, and
repairing of the sewing machine.I
cordially invite the public to give
me call whether they want to
buy or not.
All genuine Singer sewing ma
chimes repaired Tree of charge,
no matter when, where, or of
whom bought.

thing in order was the supper, which
was indeed u most bountiful one;
and which had the effect Of making
every one sociable and good naturcd
during the entertainment that fol-
lowed, except in one or two in
stances where it produced II dccid-
eddy opposite effect. There was
excellent singing and music, and
some very fine speeches in response
to toasts. At about ~ O'Clock the
entire entertainment concluded,
and those whose good fortune it
was to be present, well fed, instruct
ed, benefited, and entertained re-
paired to their homes.

WHY DON'T YOU CROW !?
The above cut represents the Stewart
Coon choking the Genuine Singer
Company's rooster.

GALENA, Sept. IS, lS79.-This
is to certify that we have this day
carefully examined and compared
two Sewing Machines of the SIM
ger pattern, one manufactured by
the Singer Manufacturing Compa-
ny Of New York and the other
manufactured by the Henry
Stewart Manufacturing Company
of New York. Both machines
were perfectly new and OF the
latest patterns made by both
Companies. And we find that
the material used in the Stewart
Machine is equal in every respect
If not superior to that used in the
Singer Company's machine. We
also find that the bearings are
wider, the workmanship better
in the Stewart Machine than in
the Machine made by the Singer
Manufacturing Company. We
further commend the Stewart
Machine for It's loose balance
wheel by which the operator is
enabled to wind the bobbin with
out running the machine. which
is not found on the machine man
ufactured by the Singer Company.
We still further find that the de-
vice for taking up lost motion in
the driving wheel Of the Stewart
Sewing Machine is the best, and
that the Stewart machine runs
lighter and stiller than the Singer
Company's Machine. And fur
ther, where there is difference
in the two machines, the snper-
iortty is shown in the Stewart in
every instance. The machines
are of the same gauge and the
parts interchangeable.

Hon. Robert Wilson for State
Senator.

AS will be seen from the proceed
ings Of our Senatorial Convention,
which we print elsewhere in to-
days paper, Hon, Robert Wilson
has been selected as the Democratic
candidate for State Senator for the
twcnty-eighth senate district, com
prising the counties of Iowa and
and Richland. The Democrats
Of this district have good reason to
feel proud of their candidate. Two
years ago, IN suggesting Mr.. Wilson
as II suitable candidate for Cover
nor, this paper said: with true
"modcsty and Difference ON our
part, we have the assurance Of the
"pcoplc and Of politicians in Iowa
county, that in mentioning Hon.
Robert Wilson as M eminent rep
rcscntntive of the people and ms
highly respected by politicians Of
"all classes, We do no violence to
public sentiment, while we pay n
tribute of just and well meritcd
"honor to n universally esteemed
citizen and early settler of tho
State in saying That none could
"bo t'uoi 10 the people Ms their
Governor
What we then said Of Mr. VIII
son is true of him to-day. He is u
man emincntly qualified to serve
tho people in any capacity to which
they might please to call him.
His name suggests u striking con-
trast to that class of politicians
which constantly clamors for Office.
He did not seek the nomination
he did not want it, but his party
saw fit to select him MS candidate
for State Senator, and of course he
consents to allow his name to be
used.
II We are not badly mistaken in
our calculations Mr.. Wilson will b,
the next Senator from this district
His nomination is favorably received
throughout the district. lndopend.
cnt Republicans will vote for him
Greenbackers will vote for him, and
Democrats will turn out en- mass,
to work for his election. He viii
be elected by large majority.
