THE
White Sewing Machine.

ITS HISTORY AND UNPARALLELED SUCCESS.
For nearly twenty years prior to
1876 the members of this company
had been engaged in the manufact-
ure of sewing machines, principally
under contract with other persons
or companies, to and by whom, the
sale of their goods was controlled in
this and foreign countries.
In the spring of 1876 an oppor-
tunity was offered to, and readily
accepted by, the members Of the
company, whereby they sold all their
old machinery, tools, patterns, ETC.,
to company that was DESTROYS to
manufacture for itself.
During the negotiations Of this
sale a new machine and new COM
pany were conceived; and, stalking
our reputation as manufacturers, and
our prospects of success, on the
quality Of our productions, we
launched the White Shuttle Sewing
Machine upon the market, and made
our first shipment in August, 1876.
With this brief summary of histo-
ry we would simply state a few facts:
It is an acknowled ged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands
pre-eminent among first-class ma
chimes, for it's simplicity and light
running qualities. 1t is mechanical
fact that the White Sewing Machine
is made from the best material and
of excellent workmanship, and allits
wearing parts are adjustable, so that
lost motion can be "taken up" in an
instant. 1t is an undisputed fact that
the durability of the White Sewing
Machine is sustained by a written
warranty for five years. 1t is a pro-
gressive fact that the White embo-
dies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing ma
chimes, together with advantages
peculiarly its own.
1t is a gratifying fact that the
White gives universal satisfaction,
and that it is steadily and rapidly
increasing in public favor. This
fact is further substantiated by the
following statement of sales, made
the third year of its existence,
amounting to 54,ssa machines. No
other machine ever had such a rec
ord of popularity. For sale by J. A.
WALTERS, agent for none, but
dealer in all firstclass sewing ma
| chimes; also pianos and organs.

times. 1t is now time for the chronic
of1ice-seeker to begin to look about him,
to bestir himself in view of the coming
struggle. Az for ourselves we have no
aspirations, but there is one office in the
gift of the people of Mower county, that
we have an interest in, aud especially are
we interested in the incumbent of that
office. 1t is the Office Of County Super
intcndent of Schools. We have already
heard mentioned the names of something
like six aspirants for that position. Two
of these parties are professional men,
Now, Mr.. Editor, we desire TO put ON
record our solemn protest against this
office, with It's honors and emoluments,
being given to any professional man, or
to any person so engaged in any other
business as to take any portion of his
time from school work. For $4,000 we
believe person should give to Mower
county the whole of his time for the two
years he will occupy the position. No
business man, no professional man, can
do this, as it follows, as d matter of
course, that, if his business or profession
is at all lucrative, it must of necessity
require portion Of his time and attention,
that time to be taken from the taxpayers
of the county. We have no fault to find
with the present administration, but if
there must be a change, let it be for the
better, and this cannot lie accomplished
by giving the Office to professional man,
and if any attempt of the kind is made
by the Republican convention of this
county, we shall, for one, set our peda-
gogic foot on the nominee. Ten years
experience in the schools Of this county
has taught us that the incumbent of that
Office must be from the teachers ranks.
His or her soul must be in the work.
We wouldn't have them do the work
simply for the love of it, for love is a poor
diet, but we believe there are individuals
in this county who would take the POSI-
ton for lis money value only. The com.
mon schools of Mower county today
rank alongside Of the best district schools
Of the country. 1t is for the taxpayers to
say il they shall be kept so. Let US look
well to the disposition made OF our $1,000
a year. Let US see to 1t that the pension.
er of our bounty earns his money. H.
