THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
SACRAMENTO TRADE AND BUSINESS
DIRECTORY.
Superior Inducements offered by Our
Merchants and Tradesmen-Low
Rates the Rule.

of every merchant and tradesman is full. fresh and
placed at the lowest living rates. There are very
many reasons why Sacramento as business center
IS the advantageous place in which to purchase
Chief among these may be set forth Its central
location, and the ease with which orders for ship
ment can be filed. Orders for goods of every de.
scripton reach Sacramento daily, in time to be
filed and shipped the day Sacramento mer-
chants large feightage fares to their customers
of tine interior by Of our location They are
nearly all direct importers and sell at rates equal
TO- and in large line of goods, less than merchants
at the commercial port OF the State, who labor
under the disadvantages of nigh rents and long
transportation rates. There are reasons, however,
equally potent Competition here is closer and
more evenly balanced, and the stocks selected
with more care, as our tradesmen enjoy the advan-
tages of selection in variety and quality that not
equally open TO dealers in larger cities, who are
forced to large stocks and compelled rapid sales
The Sacramento public, too, is more critical and
acting and tradesmen here obliged to reach and
fill high standard of excellence against their
more pretentious neighbors. These and other rea-
sons will present themselves to the thoughtful buyer
and extend into all the realms of trade Sacra-
mento wholesale and retail grocers and merchants,
manufacturers and dealers, have in past years
shown that they can and do offer decided
inducements to interior buyers, which they
have always recognized and improved and
still viii avail themsel, es of. The holiday sea
sons approach induces more lively competition
and brings the front still better grade of goods
and as a fact merchants assure us that in most
classes OF goods finer quality, better workman
ship and more choice designs prevail than in any
previous year, and Of holiday goods especially is
this true. In accordance with our annual custom
we present herewith list Of merchants whose pru-
dence and Judgment have chosen our columns as
mediums for presenting their claims TO the people.
While to the general public abroad these houses
offer superior inducements, upon our own people
they have peculiar claims, and no Sacramentan will
forget the duty he to patronize first his own
townsmen and those who contribute to the pros
perity and maintenance of the city of his home
aside from which, he will find on examination that
as varied assortments and goods, at as low
rates. are TO be had home in larger marts. It,
however, does not now need argument to establish
the advantages of this market for the fact is that
the people have proved them by the most practical
tests and to-day the market area Ct the city ex-
tends throughout Northern and Central California,
south long distance, and east to the furthes. Ter
ritores and the trade OF Sacramento is established
beyond all question. These reas ms cannot be gain
said and with their statement, which will suggest
others equally forclble, we introduce the reader to
