ANNOUNCEMENT, II. !.
A Word to the Public.

For the season of 1888 we have concluded to
dispense with canvassers in the field, to great
extent and the consequent reduction of our ex-
penses will enable us to g i've our customers this
benefit in price all lines of goods handled by us.
Notwithstanding the increase in price in nearly
all machinery over 1887, we shall not make any
advance We have made arrangements for the sale
of the old standard lines in which we have dealt
for years. We know them to be the best in the
market, and as they have always given satisfac
- tion we have no desire to handle cheaper and
INFESTED machinery, which is being placed upon
the market, much to the annoyance and loss of
both buyer and seller. There is no satisfaction
in selling, and no profit in buying machine
which is liable to fail when it is most needed
We keep constantly in stock complete line
of extras for all machines handled by us, so that
repairs are never delayed s..-.... .....
Confident of giving satisfaction, we respectfully
solicit your patronage, and shall be pleased to
see our old patrons and the public generally, at
our office, either in Sank Centre or Belgrade.
Thankful for past favors, and hoping for a
continuance, we are yours, 80 49,. ..-

Mr.. and Mrs. w. S. Dean, Mrs. M. Hogan,
Miss Hogan, Henry Capser, and Charles
F. Hendryx visited Lake View Academy
on Saturday evening last to listen to the
literary exercises of the students, The
party was warmly greeted by the genial
professor and his sister and neices and
made to feel that they were welcome.
The literary exercises consisted of read
ings, Rotations, essays, declarations,
and debate. The question was on the
justification of secession from the Union
by the southern states, and both sides
brought vast amount of patient re-
search to the discussion. Tbs presiding
officer was in doubt as to the relative
merits of the arguments, and reserved his
decision Several of the visitors were
requested to address a few words to the
students, which they did. Henry capser
is an old pupil of the Academy, and he
recalled with pride and satisfaction his
career as student, speaking words of
encouragement to the students. After
the exercises the regular Saturday even
ing calisthenic exercises were INDUCED in.
They consist principally in dancing, than
which no better exercise could be desired.
The academy is not only prosperous,
but the indications are brighter than ever
for the future. There are noY seventy
young men in attendance, all doing ex-
cellent work. tits pleasant home school
the learned head governing more as
kind and indulgent father than peda-
gogue. He has the respect, esteem, and
confidence of his students, and better
understanding between principal and
pupils will be found in no educational
institution in the land. 1t is model

few minutes later the fire was in almost
every part of the building. A general
alarm was then sent in, and the firemen
were soon hard at work. In the meantime
the flames continued TO spread until it ap.
pesred as though the entire block would
be destroyed, and the people living on
Diamond street, in the rear, began TO move
out.
Chief Evans sent word to Allegheny for

responded, but before they got down to
work the fire was communicated to Has

suits witnesses and browbeats judges and
juries-a regular old bulldozer.
Some years ago he struck a brother
member of the bar with chair, while two
men held the latter. Old Sol is a sumner at
that sort of business. Think it over
Striking man with a chair under such
circumstances. How long has 1t been since
he made an unwarrantable attack on Judge
Taylor and threw an iDkstand or soma

only the other day, as Albert Ayres came
from the witness stand did this bulldozing
attorney tell him within a few feet
Judge Woods that he "lisd like a dirty
dog" or something similar. A lady re-

with the same virus. Ritter and old Bill
Henderson and Coffin were after Demo-
Gratis, and yet, this committee is made to
appear as q set of sublimated scalawags

sprouting, and old Ritter, who bargained
with Perkins TO swear away the liberties of
honest men, receives the courts high in

famous as that for which Coy, Bern
hamer and the other Democrats

the Republican criminal is made, by a
process of hocus pocus, as some sort of a
reason for convicting Democrats. To seek
to circumvent Republican rsscars crime

the purity OF an election from the machi-
nations of Republican indicted for the

Woods puts in plea for Perkins, 1t is

c1arge, comes to the rescue of Perkins-and
wants to know Whist motive Perkins could
have for telling q lie. As well ask what
motive Judge Woods could have for be.
coming the apOlogist OF Perkins. Perkins
had hargsined to damn his soul with per
jury if he could escape the penltentia1y,
and that was motive enough. He was
ready to swear, and though it Was proven
time and again that be was a liar, Judge
Woods would have him regarded by the
Jury as man who lied in tneir pressncs
without a motive. This insuferabls
scoundrel had agreed to swear Coy into the
penitentiary, if he could, and yet he is moi
only used Tor such a dnmnabls purpose
but he is referred to by Judge Woods as s
witness without a motive, or a witnes.
with righteous motive.
Such is an outline OF the charge of Judgt
Woods. His duty was to state the law; with
that he should have been content, Sellers
and Claypool were paid by the Government
to state the facts-to present the testimony
This they did with such ability as they
could command, and in addition to theiI
harangue, Judge Woods comes in, and,
from the bench, makes plea for convic
ton, and this the Jury doubtless accepted
whether he referred to the
law or the facts as in soma
way mandatory, and the verdict, which
outrages lay ard facts, was the result.

WHILE the laborer is spending all of his
labor-his eapital-fOr the necessaries OF
life, the capitalist is spending more than
that amount for luxuries, and yet necesss-
ries are taxed with higher duties than lux
uries. Still the laborer must give part of
his wages every year to make himself
poorer and the rich richer. This is high
protection Tribune.
That is the situstion. The demand is
first to get rid Of our taxation, which is
simple robbery, and then adjust; the
tax will be lightest on necessities and
heaviest on luxur1es. 1t is the Democratic
idea. 1t is honest, Just, corEmendable.
Honest men favor the policy, and if kept
