. bill which proposes that all soldiers of the
late war shall receive the difference between
gold aud the value of the ereenbacks which
were paid them during the war, at the time
Of payment. The passage Of this measure
would take about $500. 900 from the
Uoitsd States treasury. 1t looks to Us as
though the soldiers of the late war had al.
ready been dealt with generously enough.

The Organ Business.

The following conversation of our
reporter with Mr.. Paulson, our enter
prising dealer in musical instruments,
NAV not be without interest to some
of our readers:
Reporter.-How is business, Mr..
Paulsonl
Mr.. Paulson. With me it is very
good, indeed. The outlook now, COM
pared with that of year ago, gives
promise of q prosperous season.
R.-For what instruments does
there seem to be the most demand.
Nh. P.-Those possessing the great
est purity of tone, power and dra-
bility; and are frst-class in every re-
spect.
RI notice the Western Cottage
organ among your stock of instru-
ments.
Mr.. P.-Yes l have to keep all
grades of instruments. for the reason
that some people are always looking
for a cheap article.
R.-What do You sell the Western
Cottage organs for!
Mr.. Prom $50 to $I45.
RI understood other dealers sold
them for much larger sum. How
can you afford to sell them for those
pricesl
Mr.. P.-Because l buy the goods
for what they are worth and sell them
accordingly.
RI notice Mr.. Youngman adver-
tises the Smith American organ in the
Herald of April ID at low figure.
Mr.. Pro say and to do are two
different things. Mr.. Youngman is
two fold wrong. First, in misrepre-
senting goods, and second. in adyertis-
ing organs for sale that he cannot get
at any prices. save possibly some sec
ond hand instruments.
R.-What proof have you of such
statement
Mr.. P.-I have letters in my possess
sion from ". w Kimhall, of Chicago,
Ill. who has control of the agencies in
the Northwest. stating that he had
applied to him for terms, which he
had refused to give while having one
agent in this vicinity.

Mr.. Pho, have sold a large
number of instruments in st. Croix

ty as st. Croix Falls.
R.-Finally, what do you consider
as the most encouraging feature of the
trade at present.
Mr.. P.--The iiaproyment in the
method of doing business among the
manufacturers. The horde Of impecu-
Nous, dishonest adyenturers, who
have been attracted to the organ trade
because Of the fancied large profits,
is being gradually weeded out, and
the improyident tramp. who writes to
the manufacturer for his lowest, bed

money enough to buy square meal

pointed in the reply received. and
