Our Logan contemporary continues
to misrepresent the HERALD in the
matter of the depositing of a portion Of
the County Funds in the Phillipsburg
Banks for which the Banks pay but one
per cent. Once for all let US say, the
HERALD has not defended the banks in
that matter. We have only stated to
our readers what the bankers said to
us, that they did not want the money if
they had to pay over one per cent. for
it, unless it was deposited for some de-
finite time. In some counties the
banks pay a greater interest and if our
banks can pay more than one per cent.
we say they should do it. If they can
not afford to allow a greater interest,
then it is better that the county gets
one per eeut than nothing at all. The
HERALD has 90 means Of knowing
whether they can or cannot afford to
pay more, except their word, and they
pass for truthful men. We have not
defended them, but merely stated what
they have SAID aoout the matter, a nd
this being SO, re ask the Logan Free
man to try and suit telling so many
falsehOOds about our position.

an editor and is an old bachelor. Last
fall it will be remembered he was the

It seems to make the Logan Freeman
mad as q hornet for the HERALD to
favor some of the reforms that the
Freeman Is in favor of. It is plain to
be seen that our Logan cotemporary
would rather have no political reforms
at all than to have such reforms pro-
posed or favored by Republicans, The
Freeman is so blind, and lop sided and
bitter a partisan, that it believes or
seems to believe that there is nobody
but demagogues and mOnopOlists out
side the Union Labor party. Some
people are so narrow and bigoted that
they are always thanking God, like the
Pharisee, that they are so much hOher
than other people. The Logan Free
man is a political Pharisee. Accord
ing to that paper the Union Laborltes
are the only honest patriotic people
All others are hypocrites and bent on
destroying the country. Yes, neigh
Dor Boyd, climb up out OF your little
narrow rut, and get on to q broader
platform Come up higher.

All who have been over the new premises say it is the best equipped building in the State for the furni- ture and undertaking business. The firms great increase of business during the last ten years compels the change. They will have an immense stock of furniture; thrice as much as formerly. They occupy the whole building, which is 41x110 feet and five stories high. The main store is the whole width of the building, Nos. 8, 10 and 12 Church street. They have erected a man. moth wire sign forty five feet long and eight feet high, with gold letters, so that he who runs may read. A fine elevator takes pa- irons to the various furniture warerooms. The firm has the hearty good will of the public.
