THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
SACRAMENTO TRADE AND BUSINESS
/ DIRECTORY FOR 1881.
Superior Inducements offered by Our
Merchants and Tradesmen-Low
Rates the Rule.

The close of the year is the season when the stock
Of avery msrchaut and tra1esnan is full, fresh, and
placed at The lowest living rates. There are very
many reasons why Sacramento as business center
is the most advantageous place IN which to purchase
Chief among these may be set forth: Its central
location aud the ease with which orders for ship
meut can be filed Orders for goods OF every de-
| scriptiop reach Sacramento daily, in time TO be
| filled and shipped the same day. Sacramento mer-
chans save large freightage fares to their customers
of the interior by reason Of 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 high rents and long
TRANSPORTATION routes. There reasons, however,
equally potent Competition here is closer and
! more evenly balanced, and the stocks are selected
| with more care, our tradesmen enjoy the advan-
tages of selection in variety and quality that are NOT
equally open to dealers in larger cities, who are
forced to large stocks and compelled to rapid gales.
The Sacramento public too, is more critical and ex-
acting and tradesmen here are obliged to reach and
fill high standard OF excellence as against their
| more pretentious neighbors. These and other rea-
sons will present themselvs to the thoughtful buyer
and extend into all the realms Of trade Sacramento
wholesale and retail grocers and merchants, manu-
facturers and Dealers have in pst years shown that
| they can and do offer decided inducements 10 int
| rior BUYERS which they have always recognized and
| improved and still will avail themselves OF. The
| holiday seasons approach induces more lively COM
petition and brings to the front still better grade
OF goods and fact merchants assure us that
in most classes of goods finer quality better work
mansh;p and more chece designs prevail than in any
previous year, and of holiday goods especially is
| this true. In accordance with our annual custom
we pre- sent herewith list OF merchants whose pru-
| deuce and Judgment have CHI 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 owes TO patronze 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 examination, that
| as varied assortments and rare goods, at as low
rates, 70 be had at home as Ia larger marts It,
| however, does not now need argument to establish
the advantages of this market, Tor the fact is that
| the people have proved them by the most practical
| tests, and to day the market area OF the city ex-
| tends throughout Northern and Central California
| south long distance and east to the further Terri
tories and the trade Of Sacramento is established
| beyond all que ,tion The reasons cannot be gain
seyed, and with their statement, which will suggest
Others equally forcible we introduce the reader to
