Advertising Fakirs.

A fakir is the natural product OF
shrewdness and laziness-spend their
good money with the hope Of getting
some weary customer into their clutches
and making it all back again. Now, Mr..
Editor, we don't believe in advertising
it costs money, and when other people
advertise and get people into town, the
spirit Of "looking around" is paramount
with nearly all people, and when they
drop into our store and find they can
buy Vandiver or an Evans corn plan.
ter, with or without phosphate attach
ment, for at least S4 less than any other
planter in the market, they are going to
buy. And the same may be said about
cultivators, harrows, double shovel
plows, or any other kind OF farm imple-
ment; so what is the use OF us adver-
tising? And when any body wants a
new wagon he will not think of buying
until he sees the new Brown with it's
double straight front and rear hound,
and the best wagon made. Then one Of
the wonders Of the age is the new
Whitley solid steel harvester and binder,
so simple any body can manage it. Two
horses can pull it with ease. And when
people want surrey they know the
"Troy" 10 be the very best finished,
best made and most durable. And peo-
pie will buy the best And then the
Haydock buggies are on the same floor,
better made and better finished than
ever before. So what is the use of ad.
vertising them? And no well.informed
person will think of buying anything in
the hardware line without first seeing
the fine selection and good styles OF all
kinds Of hardware kept by the Hillsboro
Hardware Co. What is the use OF ad.
vertising when every body knows all
the above to be true?

Too Much Shooting.

South Fincastle was all excitement
last week over shooting affray which
took place in that hamlet last Wednes-
day, the Sth The shooting was done
by George Kendall, and the man he
made a target of was Thos. Butts. The
immediate cause of the trouble was an
order for meney which Butts held against
Kendall. The report runs in this way :
That when Butts presented the order
for settlement to Kendall he did it in a
brutal and profane way, and on the re-
fusal of Kendall to settle Immediately
he rushed upon him, which act Kendall
resented by drawing his gun and dis
charging it in Butts abdomen. There
is also the counter charge that Kendall
was too quick in drawing and firing his
gun.
The Riply Tribune, of May the 1lth,
says that Butts is still alive, but with
slim chance of recovery. Hints are also
given that the present difficulty, which
resulted in the shooting, is but the re-
newal of an old quarrel over former
debt. Meanwhile Kendall was placed
under arrest and taken to Georgetown,
where he will have an opportunity of
showing whether the shooting was that
OF malice or done in self.defence.

Adams county has discovered gold in
paying quantities-so says the New Era.
But in her modesty she is raising no
Oklahoma yell. The stiffness is mis-
leading. Say, neighbor, is it fact or is
it theory? If you really have gold in
paying quantities, why don't you have a
picnic or hold the Fourth Of July next
week? Old Highland will come down

severely. All the low ground is under
