The Waterman ssserls that what the
JOURNAL said in regard to farmers oppos.
ing the cider law because it touches their
pockets, would remove the foundation
from all proLibiiory legislation. Very
likely. Selling liquor Of all kinds comes
from selhshness. Were there no money
TO be made 10y it very little would be made
or sold. The farmers are no better or
~ofso in this respect than other people
Very many OF them will sustain the law

con, kick against H. The practical qucs

amendment was wise, in view Of the fact

Its a well-known fact, By
man rn tAis city and al over

positive exclusion of al others
from catching seals, aud that
. company, real aud only head

. I.Ornla. Now. all genuine
Alaska Seals mu t and DO come
through that port. DO not be
deceived, OF deceive yOur-elf
hat yOu can purchase as cheap
elsewhere, for they all come
through that cCmpanyand you
must ana 90 pay over one pro-
tit hrst, 40 matter where or OF
who you buy. By purchasing
of Ii. Llebes 6 co. you pay
only one profit, but if pur-
/ chased OF others you first pay
Us ore profit, then the whole
sale skin dealer. the whOle- ale
manufacturer, the lObber. then
the retailer; and II you pur
chase of dry goods, hat or cloak
stores, You have TO pay them
a per cent. thus paying four
or five extra profits.
Now, all Seals are sold at
au tiOn in London on Nov. 6
of each year, to the highest
bidder, and on Nov. 6, 81,
they advanced % per cent, on
Nov. 6, '63, advanced AZ per
cent Now, all fur dealers
must buy and do pay those
advances; there IS no possible
way of avoiding it. But II.
Liebes catch the Seals and do
not have to pay those ad-
vances, and by thus handling
the Seals raw grading, sort
ing and packing-fOr we ham
die more raw Seals than all
retail dealers in the world.
Now, considering all these
facts. which can be proved,
is it not a fact, beyond al
doubt, that by ordering ol
this firm you get from the or
iginal aud only first hands,
only real headquarters, and CT
a firm that is fully posted on
Seals, and know what they
are telling you to be facts, and
a firm that are famed all over
the world for selling at the
lowe prices and giving best
goods, and always making
good their word and promises.

everything closing higher than last evening.
London was materially higher than last even

the opening induced a more bulllsh feeling than
had been obtained yesterday, which resulted IN
decidedly strong and active opening. gains
extending to IS per cent, and in the first half
hour further gains of 1s69l5 per cent. were
scored in the general list, while Sugar trust
and Chesapeake and Ohio stocks moved up over
per cent each. At high figures there was
disposition among smaller traders to take
profits and the demand fell away and prices re-
ceded, but afterward moved up again. Toward
noon the market received a shaking up from
the sudden activity and rapid decline IN the
National Lead Trust, which responded to stories
OF further capitalization OF the trust ana II Ieii
