AND STREETS, WHOLESALE WINE AND
LIQUOR MERCHANT.
[See grocers and tobacconsts1
This is one of the OLDEST liquor houses in
the State, having been established in 1855.
As has been stated elsewhere, the estab-
lishment is wholesale grocery and provi-
sion store also. 1t enjoys by its admirable
business location all the advantages to be
derived from immediate proximity to points
of shipment by rail and boats, and can fill
all orders with the utmost promptness and
dispatch. He imports his stock direct, and
reaches his customers with prices but
slightly advanced upon producers figures.
The most of his line of liquors he brings
by sea voyage, to insure improvement by
age and the voyage He pays especial at
tention to French wines, brandies, old
ports, etc., and claims that his stock in
| this line, as well as in all other liquor lines,
cannot be surpassed. He has the most ap-
proved brands of WHISTLES known in the
country. Mr.. Chesley has the exclusive
agency for the new remedial agent for
which so much is claimed, and known as
Rock and Rye, and which the manufacture
ers present as pure old rye whisky and the
best rock candy This is claimed to be not
| only an alleviator of all bronchial, throat
and lung affections, but in many cases to
work radical cures of these complaints. 1t
is unnecessary to refer to it more in detail,
as its sale has become universal, and the
term " Rock and Rye" is as familiar as
household word. 1t may be added that the
Rock and Rye sold by Chesley is the only
genuine article sold on the coast. All not
bearing his trade mark is spurious. His
trademark is protected by law. The ex-
tent of the local sale and shipment of this
remedial beverage, through this house, is so
great as to be phenomenal. The success of
this house has been of steady growth, and
enables it to supply the trade, as it does,
at prices as low as can be obtained in San
Francisco or elsewhere.

SUCCESSORS OF JoNGHACs), IMPORTER
AND WHOLESALE DEALER IN LIQUORS
MIR. Strutz' place is at 209 J street, be-
tween Second and Third. He is an i'm
porter and wholesale dealer in fine French
brandies, foreign and domestic wines and
pure Kentucky WHISTLES. This is the old
est exclusive liquor house in the city, hav-
ing been established by j. G. Jonghaus in
1851. Mr.. Strutz has been connected with
the house from the day it began business,
having been head clerk, until 1862 At that
time Mr.. Jonghaus transferred the establish
ment to Messrs. Fox Il Strutz and departed
for Europe. Mr.. Fox was at the time
senior partner in the house of Fox & Por-
ter, in San Francisco. The firm continued
as Fox & Strutz until 1867 when Mr.. Fox
retired from business, and Julius Strutz
became sole proprietor. The building &C.
cupies fire proof brick, 20xl00, with wine
cellar extending to the alley 2Oxl60 feet.
He jobs to the full extent OF any interior
demand at better rates than San Francisco
houses.

JAMES I. FELTER AND CO., IMPORTERS OF
WINES AND LIQUORS.
This house, occupying the old pioneer
store established in 1861, at 70 Front street,
between X and l., now consists Of j. III.
Carroll and James [. Feller. The commo-
dious one-story and basement store, size 25
by 100 feet, affords them fine store-room
for the display of their goods and for their
bottling department, where they have
number of men constantly at work putting
up in cases wines and brandies, which they
ship principally to Utah and Colorado.
This firm also imports direct its cognacs,
wines and Holland gin, and consequently
pays but little tribute to San Francisco, as
its purchases in that city are very light,
and are only for a line of goods manufac-
tured there, such as bitters and cider, etc.
This firm is also sole agents here for Reeds
gilt-edge tonic, Kennedy's East India and
the celebrated Damiana bitters. The store
location IS directly upon the line OF the
chief railways of the State, the cars OF
which roll to the door of the warerooms.
But few feet distant are the chief wharves
of river shipment. These are peculiar adj
vantages to this house, and which must be
shared by all its patrons.
The volume of business done by this
firm from the Goth of December, 1878, to
the Goth of December, 1879, has very
largely increased, their trade having ex-
tended over greater extent of territory,
and having direct connection with one of
the old distillery companys in Louisville,
KY, their facilities for conducting large
and extensive trade are second to none on
the Pacific coast The reasons why the
liquor trade here enjoys special advant-
ages are in part climatic, and well under
stood by dealers.
Soon after the commencement of the
new year the firm will, in connection with
their wholesale wine and liquor business,
open jobbing cigar department, and their
orders are now being filled by Eastern man.

as their own, they are certainly entitled to

Where the artists of the State will not
only be at liberty, but be solicited to hang
their works, that the people may see them

shows commendable spirit in its desire
to encourage art culture, while it plainly
admits that its interests lie to no small ex-
tent in the advancement of art. The en-
trance to this gallery is convenient both to
the winding stairway and to the elevator

outline of an establishment worthy of
great elaboration in writing an establish
ment of which Sacramento may well feel
proud, and one worth special visit at any
time, and which will well repay for the

Slavery Of Farmers Wives,

'.7 r {.
No single newspaper article Of the
present decade created profounder
sensation than the Chicago Tinaes' ed
itorial on the slavery Of farmers wives.
1t enforced thought and inquiry, and
thus awakened the public mind to an
enormity that hitherto has excited but
little attention. 1t is not urged that
all farmers wives are drudges. Many
Of them perform no more work than is
essential to vigorous health. But
thousands and tens of thousands of
them are worked into their graves.
These are the women who build the
fires, cook meals three times a day
for force Of men. feed and milk the
COWS, do the washing and ironing for a
dozen persons, make the butter and
cheese, do marketing, put up the fruits,
cultivate the kitchen garden-the
women who commence their round of
toll by starlight in the morning, an
hour or more before the stronger men
are out of bed-and end it near mid :.
night, hours after the same strong men
80 to bed and sleep. The farmer,
working hard himself, and hearing but
few complaints from his toiling wife
doing his work and seeing that hers is
done asks no questions; and no doubt
feels that while his wife can get
through with her work, it would be
needless expenditure of means to hire
servant to help her. When at the
age Of 40, from hard work and child.
bearing. she takes on the appearance
Of a woman Of 60,he concludes that she
didn't have strong constitution, :"
and that she would have Jared better
had she been the wife of a carpenter
or shoemaker. We repeat, that the
slavery to which we allude, is not the
lot of all farmers wives. Many far.
mers are as considerate for the health
Of their wives as they are for their
own health; but the fact is undeniable,
nevertheless, that, as class, the wives
are over-worked. The insane asylums
tell this story; the worn and exhausted
appearance Of many Of the women
themselves tell it, and the average of
their lives tells it in shape that can.
not be misinterpreted.

MANLY SENTIMENTS.

The Globe has received from the
chairman Of the county commissions rs
of Blue Earth county request to send
iu bids for the printing of that county
for the ensuing year. The Globe will
do nothing Of the kind. and the coun.
ty commissioners of that county ought
to be ashamed of themselves for going
outside their own territory to secure
the work which can be done as well
or better at home. There are two
large and well equipped newspapers
and printing Offices at Mankato, the
county seat, and third Adjustment
at another town in the county. This
ought to supply all the competition
necessary and the taxpayers Of Blue
Earth county should be, and doubtless
are, willing to give their business to-
their own citizens.
We venture to say that no one thing
has done so much to develop Blue
Earth county as her newspapers. They
have been constant advertisement of
the advantages Of that region, and
without them the county would be al
most a terra i''cognita. If there was

Letter from Mr.. Glassford.

Elk RIVER, MIMI, Jan. 5th, 80.
Editor Princeton UuSon:
Iii your last issue my attention has
been called to all editorial, stating
that the business men of your place
had sent to the r. R. Co. letter of
comp laint, stating that M. j. Costel-
10, my clerk in the depot, was care
less, not accommodating, saucy. etc.
This is surprise to me. No such
complaint has been, nor is now made
By the business men Of this place,
who come in personal contact daily in
business transactions with Mr.. Costel-
10. x.g F.. Va. E....a s-s... .... g..
Regarding the six persons signing
the letter of complaint, not one Of
them do business, personally, at this
depot. The letter in question having
been sent me for investigation by the
sup't Of the R. R. | am personally
acquainted with all of them ana
doubt if Mr.. Costello knows all Of
them by sight. ".' s-z.1
I gave personal charge of the r. r.
business at this depot nearly year
ago, to Mr.. Costello; my Instructions
to him were to accommodate, all, and
especially the business men Of Prince
ton, to the very limi: Of the rules and
regulations Of the company, and no
farther; this l am positive he has done
while when was in charge I fire..
quently disconnected myself and was
censured by the company in my en-.
deavors to accommodate.
Few young men, I am inclined to
think, in these parts, would do the
business with as much promptness and
as much correctness as Mr.. Costello,
If either Of the complaining parties
will put themselves in his place for
short period, and have the annoyances
attending the life of a R. r. agent and
operator, they would look at the mat
ter entirely different.
1t is my desire, as it always has
been, to accommodate the citizens of
your thriving village, and ifany one
who may see this article will demon
strate to me when and to whom Mr..
Costello has been saucy, or in what
way discourteous or neglectful, I will
see that it will not again happen.
/ think there is misunderstanding
some where. if not some personal mall
ice which | hope the pending investi-
CATION will dispel.
IF you will kindly find room in the
columns of your valuble paper for

greatly oblige.
