Edwin Meese was partner in the firm
of Emil Buckow & Co. In April, 1881,

cisco, and who have been in trade there
since the year 1861, is the father of Mr..
Edwin Meese, the proprietor of the Sacrs-
mento house under notice. The San Fran
cisco house has the agencies for the most
approved and popular leading Eastern dis
tilieries, and buys also direct from the
best Eastern markets, and imports fine
wines and liquors from Europe also in large
quantities. The relation of Edwin Meese
s. Co., OF Sacramento, to the San Francisco
house named, gives them advantages in the
Sacramento market which other houses
here, it claims cannot boast OF, and enables
them, by buying in conjunction with the San
Francisco house and shipping in carload lots
(which of course is the most economical,
to save not only in freight and expenses,
bat to secure its stock at the
lowest possible rates. Added to this
consideration, is the fact that the Sac
ramen5o house conducts business
here at very much reduced outlay for
rentals and current expenses, and enjoying
the peculiar and well-known advantages
that make Sacramento so prominent as a
trade center, it is enabled to present 70 the
interior trade price-Gsts with lower rates
marked than most competitive establish
ments. Whatsoever is saved by the less
ened freight charges, low rentals and
economic conduct of the business inures to
the customers of Meese & Co., for all such
margins they enable their patrons to avail
Of In addition the patrons themselves
enjoy special advantages in buying here,
for they have less freight to psy for all
points north and east OF Sacramento, and
can secure the filing Of their orders some
three days earlier than il they bought
their supplies in the metropolis. Edwin
Meese & Go. enjoy city trade of excep-
tionaily fine character and large extent.

ing its claims to the country trade, and
uniformly such has been the success of
these agents that the business OF the house
has received an Endorsement at the hands
Of the people of the interior of which any
house might be proud. The business Of
the firm extends over Yoio Solano, Placer,
| FL Dorado, Calaveras, Amador and Yuba
counties, mostly, aud has found response
also in Butte, Tehama, Shasta, Pl1mas,
Nevada, Sierra and all the northern
region, and is now steadily gaining
f0othold in more southern regions.
Edwin Meese is a young man full of en-
ergy, cautious, discreet, and is possessed
CT that business tact which indicates the
| highest success as his aim, and which such
| qualities will surely command. One con-
| sideration remains TO be presented, and
| that is that liquors stored in the dry atmos-
phere, which is the case at Sacramento,
and where the thermometer indicates a
mean high temperature, age more rapidly,
and are turned out better than those kept
in the more humid atmosphere of the coast.
Now as Meese & Co. have admirable
storage rooms, and can secure for them the
very highest climatic temperature, the
| liquors they keep In stock are constantly
improving. These things are well known,
however, to all skilled buyers, and are
undeniable. To the matter of grocers,
family and travellers wine and liquor sup.
| plies, Meese Co. give especial attention,
and the local trade, which is constantly and
rapidly growing, is veri6cation of the
claims of the house in this regard. The
firm is agent for Sonoma blackberry wine,
made from the Lawton blackberry in Sono-
ma county, guaranteed to be perfectly
pure. 1t is extensively used for dyspepia
and all stomach diseases,
