Mr.. Philip Prayer, of Socorro
proprietor of the only wholesale liq.
uor house in that city, paid Lincoln a
visit Tuesday. This is his first visit
over in this part of the country, and
he seemed to be very we'll pleased
with his success. HIS house keeps
everything in the saloon line, and
can lay down goods in this county
cheaper than any other town in the
territory. Parties dealing in wet
goods would do we'll to give this
little gentleman a trial order.
People of this county have much
to be thankful for. The rainy sea
son came just at the right time anc
stopped when the grass had started
nicely, so that it cured well before
frost. The crops over the countr,
were never better, aud the demand
at fair prices is good. THE GOLDEN
ERA has especial cause to feel thank
full. Its circulation was never larg
er; its advertising never better, anc
to the party that sent its editor tha,
fine. large turkey, it extends its per
sonal thanks. No name was at
tachrd to the fowl, but we only wisl
that he, she or they could take din
ner with us to-day.
