What the Sitter Says.

That the citizens of So. Londonderry
are to be congratulated upon the splen-
did appearance of Main st.
That the wood pile nearly opposite
the hotel is beauty.
That there is always something
charming about wood pile.
That slab wood is particularly so.
That when the Peabody House gets
filled up with summer boarders they
can look the pile over for gum.
That a half dozen city folks setting
on those slabs hunting for gum will be
sight for blind man.
That punches of shingles are quite
ornamental when thrown around pic
turesquely.
That handsome job of that kind can
be seen near the post-office.
That these are not the only ching of
beauty on Main st.
That below the dug-a-way they are
numerous and charming.
That the property owners down that
way must be dreadfully stuck up"
or they would not display so much
beauty in front of their residences.
That the SITTER does not wish to be
invidious or to slight anyone.
That, therefore, it will, on the 9th
day of May, give the names of Main
st. residents that have taken SO much
pains in the ornamental line.
That the week thereafter it will pay
its respects to other streets.
That the caucus last Saturday even
ING fully demonstrated the saving OF
the SITTER that nine tenths of our peo
pie were utterly opposed to machine
politics and politicians.
That Londonderry Will not this veal
send a delegation to any convention
that will vote for any man for any pc
eition that has the slightest smear o.
machine" grease upon his garments.

General Spinner, who first introduced
women into the United States Treasury,
left on record q striking testimonial to

rortunity to study the question than he,
who at one time had 1000 women

handling money. He testiiies that they

HE NAIL Trade.
a Review of the Situation Prospects
OGGOOd Trade had.

a Review of the situstiOn-PrOsPeet
GOOD Trade had.
During conversation with several
mil men REGISTER reporter learned
the following information about the
uailtradr, which to say the least is not
at all tlatteriDg and especially 80 to the
owners. The general impression about
this country that the nail trade is brisk
and will be very lively this season, is
beyond doubt grand mistake. In
the first place, had any such thing been
the case the card rate of nails would
have been advanced some time ago, but
instead Of that the manufacturers have
held several meetings, not for the pur-
pose Of advancing the card rate, but to
get reliable information from all sources
available, so that they can know exact
ly how much lower the card rate ought
to be put. Nails 81 the present time
are selling for s. a per keg to large buy
eTs and information from Western
States indicate that nails can be brought
in the Wheeling market, at $50 and
S235 keg in large quantities, and
the general Prsdic ion among the larger
buyers is that nails can be bought at
- % per keg in less than three weeks,
this really seems 10 be reliable from the
simple fact, that merchants who formal
~ bought $1,000 % worth Of nails per
order, aye nov buying in quantities OF
from ID toto kegs lust u sufficient guam
tity 10 meet immediate demands. This
shows con '!usivey the telling among
the buyers, and ~ one gentleman re-
marked the reason they take this stand
Is, that they know the capacity Ofevery
mill in this country and also know that
the Production Is lar IN excess of the
COLsumpttOu renee they know that
nails viii be selling for less money in a
short time than they now 10, II tue
buyers hold oil aud let the agents Of
the manufacturers come around IN m
eager manner 10 sell TO them, they viii
buy and 1T reduction Of 10 To ID cents
On the k,g under present IudHS
prices.
The manufacturers like the buy rs
will rot carry any stock of nails IN the
face of the present market, Simply be
cause they are afraid that prices VII
continue To iail and that tue nail trade
for tins year aud - will b. y repetition
of l>IT amt IS At which time the trade
WAS 80 dull that mil stocks m this vi
CiUity sold ~ low as 81 cents on the
dollar.
In this immediate vicinity we find 10
rall faarOrles, whose joint capacity
amounts TO over 10000. This is about
oue-thlrd oflhe amount OF nails made
yer week in the IuiIed States and will
give our readers slight idea Of the
large number Of nails made in one
week steady ruo OF the nail factories
throughout the United States. The
manufacturers know from the tone Of
the letters received from their largest
customers, that they are waiting until
nails reach a certain point to buy in
large quantities.
