Drummers are coming to town in increased

Drummers are coming to town in increased
numbers-another sure sign that spring il
approaching. Almost every train bears sew
eral Of the fraternity to or from the city. As
10 characteristic of the whole class they carry
satchel cot tanning samples Of their goods,
etc. When here, they nearly all put up At
the Cony House, which hotel seems to pos
sess some peculiar charms for them. Many
tradesmen say that runners are a great nui-
sance. "They come into my store" says one,
"and wellniy Oh run away with me. They
know the size of my stock about as
well as l do, and if there is any
particular line of goods, in which l am

A runner comes into my store and before he

as he states, and almost convincss me in
opposition to my senses that am in want of
goods. If but one came along in . day l
could stand it very we'll, but when that one is
followed by three or four, all in one forenoon,
it is rather tough. They stand around under
foot when | am in or at hurry, entreating
me to order their goods As consequence
much valuable time is lost by me-" Drum
mers are a cheeky set of fellows and will re-
sort to every expedent to procure trade for
their firm. They will even go so far as to
forward goods which have not been ordered,
to dealer and then make him pay for them.
This is only in exceptional cases of course.
After all, drummers, as a class, are good M.
tured, reliable sort of men, and tradesmen
seldom have the heart to use them harsh
ly. An effort has been made in
commercial circles at different times to
root ont the drummer; but unsuccessfully.
1t is said that tradesmen could order direct
from the wholesalers at a much less cost than
through drummers. as the firm employing
the drummer must necessarily add his salary
and expenses, which often mount into the
thousands, to the price Of the goods.

Every dav, almost, something arises to bear
out this assertion. There is no better rail-

perintendent Tucker. and far and near the
careful yet profitable manner in which its af-
fairs are conducted. Everything moves
like clock work. The traius are
run with due dispatch. The employees
are gentlemanly and courteous. Very few
accidents occur on the road and none of that
terrible nature with which the running of
trains on other roads has occasionally been
characterized. The Maine Central is pros
pring financially and its business is con-
stantly on the increase The amount of its
freight traffic is growing every month and it
is found necessary to run special freights ;
but while the road is furnishing, its passen-
ger and freight rates are no higher than the
road can charge and live. The rates charged
passengers are less on an average than those
on any other road in Maine. We understand
the proposition of uniting the Boston & Maine
and the Maine Central under one management
is being considered, thus making common the
interests of the two roads. 1t is believed that
this will be the final result We learn that
