To AN INDULGENT PUBLIC:
We do not propose to
write you Lecture, Sermon, or
Essay.on the fraiities of Human
nature, but wish to have con-
fidential chat with you on that
subject, as far as it is connected
with the Watch and Jewelry bus
mess. When we first started in
this business in the spring of
1878, it was with high hopes
and high and holy desire to do
Justice to all both in good sold,
work repaired and to reap pc
caniary reward, sufficient to help
us oyer the rough places of life,
In our short experience of ap-
premiership previous to that
time ne did not claim 10 know
it all, but expected at all times
to keep practical and reliable
journeyman. But alas! How
quick the tide turned. A few
watches stopped, perhaps from
the neglect of the owners it
might have been our fault. Soon
it was said by some shat boy
is not fit to fix q watch;' why I
bought watch key from him
and my watch stopped the next
day, . fnot, Mis, gust such unreas-
enable remarks drove away the
large trade of my predecessor,
then my journeyman had to go.
Then there avas trouble in the
jewelry store. Youth and mex
perience battling with the colo
heartless world. Many, eccept
some steadfast friends, ready to
fulfil the old adage, when q
man commences to 60 down Hill
give him a kick" But with a firm
belief that truth and right would
prevail l held on with a pluck
and energy that had it been ap-
piled to other business or other
places, would have enabled me
to count my dollars by the thous.
ands instead of hundreds. But
the past has gone and cannot
be retrieved. Thirteen years
have nearly passed away. and
with the struggles and triumphs
of business here and in the trade
work shop of, Phila, 1 find that
l have dearly bought the exper-
fence that now enables me to
say l am competent to put in
good order any work that you
may leave with me. | devised
a Watchmakers Record for my
own use but conceived the idea
of placing it on the market for
sale. Attempting to do this I
found / was unable to meet the
requirements of my Increasing
trade, so called from the city my
former helper Mr.. VIM. Shep-
pard, who is too we'll known to
need any recommendation from
me as this is his native place, he
worked at the business here for
three years, and several months
in a fine jewelry and repair store
in Phia. whsre he would yet haye
been had not this opportunity
offered at home. Thanking yoa
my friends Tor your past favors
| would respectfully solicit the
future patronage of all, assuring
you that ali work will be done
as promptly and at as low a
price as is consistent with good
workmanship. | have not time
to tell you about the goods l.
keep for sale. A new stock of
Clocks &c, &c. Call and see us.

blown down in many places and some

A VETERANS OPINION.

General Sherman, who generally
knows what he is talking about,
speaking Of the ticket, says:
Il think there could not be a more
powerful ticket than Harrison and
Morton. think that every man
who fought for the preservation of
this government should vote for these
men. They are both strong Union
men one is a soldier and the other a
statesman-bOth we'll tried in the
cOuntry's service. Harrison I think
viii be as strong as Mr.. Blaine would
have been OF course, I would rath-
er my brother John had got it, but
the Republican party should be the
judge and select its own standard
bearer. There has never been a true
Union man sent to represent this
country in any foreign lands under
this administration and it is time for
a change. Cleveland is seventeen
years younger than L He should
have shouldered a musket and have
gone to the front Everybody capa-
bic Of carrying a gun should have Of
fered his services. Then the war
should not have lasted as long as it
did At Vicksburg and Gettysburg
we were short handed, and if those
men who hung in the rear had gone
to the front the war would have been
over a year sooner than It was.
The candidates named now are
wonderful good Harrison is a man
OF great character, good habits and
lineage. He is good every way and
a fit and proper person to 90 to the
White House. How it is a fair and
square race between the two parties. 5"

Congress Proposes to Crush out
the Trusts.
HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, August 8.-AIr. Shaw
Of Maryland, from the committee on
accounts, reported the resolution ap-
propriating $4,000 to meet the ex-
pense of the committee on manufac-
turers in investigating trusts.
Mr.. Breckenridge Of Arkansas,
stated that the investigation had not
proceeded far enough to enable the
committee on manufacturers to re-
port a measure of relief.
Mr.. Brewer of Michigan had read
letter from the Michigan condensed
milk company, complaining of the
sugar trust, and suggesting that in
order to remedy the evil the govern
ment should allow the free importa-
ton Of sugar for 60 or 80 days.
Mr.. Springer of Illinois, called at
tention to the provisions of a bill re-
Gently introduced by him, to tax the
products of trusts, and said the en-
actment Of such a law would effectu-
ally abolish trusts, pools and combin-
atoms. It would not be in order to
offer this bill as a substitute to the
pending resolution, but when the
pending resolution was disposed Of
he would ask unanimous consent to
present his bill for immediate con
sideration. His bill would not bring
in any revenue but put a stop to the
trusts forever.
Mr.. Breckenridge thought that the
investigation now in progress should
be persued until the committee was
in position to recommend legislation
which would tear out these trusts by
the roots.
Mr.. Spinola of New York, said
there was but one way to deal with
the trusts, and that was to declare
them contraband of the public good
and public interest, to declare them
to be Illegal and to attach penalty
to the passing from one hand to an
other of certificates of a trust. He
would frame a law so the penalty
would be the same for passing GER
tifcates of trusts as for passing coun-
terfeit notes. This question must be
reached by cold law. He was op-
posed to the passing of any bill which
would recognize trusts and legalize
them.
Mr.. Conner of Illinois, was con
vinced that as to some trusts the com
mittee had sufficient information up
on which to base legislation.
Mr.. Weaver of Iowa, said that the
question presented was whether the
trusts were stronger than the govern
ment, and he favored the Springer
bill as being thorough, sweeping ant
crushing in its provisions.
