we have had the exclusive sale of the
Rockford Quick Train Railroad Watch
for the past three years. No OTHER
PARTY CAN BUY THEM FROM THE FAC
TORY, OR HAS ANY RIGHT TO SELL
THEM. 1t seems to us much like boys
play to get angry and advertise prices
because they cannot buy the goods.
We trust the publication of prices will
continue through the whole list, as we
have no money to advertise goods not
in stock. Such desperate efforts will
not deceive any. The people know
that we have never cursed the place as
ready to be fenced in, because we were
going 10 leave it. They know that We
are not travelling experimental insti-
tuition, and they will continue to buy
their Watches, Silver Ware, ETC., of
the Old Reliable Ravenna jewelers.,

GOVERNOR TssETEEz

The wires announce that Cover
Tor F. 4. Tritle Of Arizona has
sent his resignation to the Presi-
dent. In speaking CT the above
the Sai5 Lake Tribune pays the
Governor the following well merit
ed compliment and shows where
the influence came from which
forced his resignation to make
room for some impecunious believer
in rotation in Office Governor
TritIe had to stoop to accept the
Governorship in Arizona. La every
walk of life he is superior man.
AS Governor he has won the admir-
alton Of all parties In Arizona.
They have seen by his work that he
is one who could adorn any station
with grace, and that trust in his
hands is secure. None outside of
the Territory know what he has
been to Arizona. When he was
made Governor the Territory was
under the control of roughs they
gave him notice that if he inter
fered with them that they would
kill him. He laid his hand upon
them at first it was so soft that
they thought it vas velvet, but it
closed tighter and tighter until
they realized that under the glove
it had a grasp Of iron, and their
occupation was gone. He has ad-
vanced the schools; he has done
more to save the country from the
savages than the military; he has
been at the head Of everything
which promised progress; he has
carried his honors with cordially
which brought every man to him
and with a dignity which left it inn
possible for any man to presume to
impose upon his good nature, and
all the time he has been driving a
private enterprise to the full extent
of his ability, that through him
others as well as himself may be
blessed. He will go out of office
leaving a feeling toward him which,
could Arizona put on Statehood,
would give him the highest honors
in the gift of the friends that he |
has made. He is an honest and
manly man.

A STEP IN ADVANCE,

The next move in this age of id
vancement, is the receiving o.
messages by telegraph operators BY
use of the typewriter. A cores
pondent of the American Book.
maker, writing from Cincinnati
under date of July 18th, says:
Zone Of the wonders of modern
times, the typewriter, was used in
receiving messages at the Office OF
the Western Associated Press in
this city for two days last week.
The young operator who used it is
: Nashville boy. he first began
practicing with an upper and lower
case Remington typewriter late in
August Now he is the most bril-
liant receiver in the service. No
sender can get away with him.
His type writer nanifolds fifteen
copies with ease, though in prac-
tice it is only required to make
nine copies. He punetuatss per-
fectly and spaces artistically IS he
goes along, and his copy is the JOY
Of the telegraph editor and the
printer. In writing manifold the
typewriter is noiseless. Aside from
its speed, the ease of the operation
to the writer in comparison with
that Of using either the stylus or
the pen is an immense sonsidera-
ton. The difference is a thousand
fold in favor Of the typewriter.
Scriyener's paralysis is the tele
graph operators skeleton in the
closet. The typewriter bids fair
to leave the operator without
skeleton. He can use one hand to
adjust his receiver while writing
in an electric storm as we'll as while
writing with a pen, and even better.
The experiment, or rather the ex-
hibitien, Of the triumph created
quite an excitement among the OPP
