ANN0UNCEME NT! |!

Anticipating an early spring, and an increased demand for all
seasonable Dry Goods, we have made our purchases much earlier
and much larger than usual. Our selections have been made in per
son, and not on orders, and we fauer ourselves that we have not
only the
BEST STOCK. BUT THE CHEAPEST M
WE HAVE EVER HAD.
Taking advantage of the war which has been going on for a short
time between the large wholesale dealers, we have made our purchases
at prices never before dreamed of. We have searched the markets
thoroughly for such goods ~ W e knew would suit our customers;
and, owing to the war above alluded to, we have been enabled to buy
them almost at our own prices. We will give our customers the full
benefit of our experience and our advantages in buying, and we COR
daily invite you to come and let us show you what we have. We
have no fears about pleasing you.

Its condition, financially and otherwise, was
well known to the community. Its officers
had made contract with syndicate without
having called the directors attention to the
matter until after the consummation of the
contract, and we were, therefore, called upon
to ratify what had already been done. That
had been the universal practice, and was and
is the one thing the state and city directors
insisted upon changing. In other words, we
insisted upon being conferred with before the
act. and not to be considered simply as apart
of a ratification meeting. The contract with
the syndicate was an extraordinary one. Mr..
Frick, although not at that time member OF
the board, was very earnest in urging me TO
aid in ignoring that part Of the contract which
provided for the sale of s., 900, 900 ofpreterred
stock. Believing with him that this would
probably result in the transfer of Maryland
great road to those not in sympathy with us,
acted with Mr. Mayer and others, and we
succeeded in defeating that proposition. I'm
mediately after, not being satisfied with the
financial statements made, offered resolu-
ton for the appointment of committee to
investigate the affairs of the company and
ascertain its exact financial status. Such a
proposition, coming from one representing
public interest, was met with just such insin-
uations as stated in the Sun of the 18th, that
it was made for political purpose, and one
gentleman had the temerity to say so IN the
board meeting, but no one has attempted
since to repeat the remark. Now that It is
sought to create the impression that politics
has something to de witf-this matter, desire
to say that the time has passed when the
attacks of the B. and o. officers, by abusive
articles against those who represent the public
interest, can longer serve to distract attention
from their own shortcomings and their i'll
advised action, which may jeopardize the
millions Of money that the state and city have
invested in this road; but ! shall not now
enter into any detailed discussion of the
matter, but shall reserve that for report to
the board Of public works, who, by the con
stitution Of the state, are charged with the
duty of protecting the states investments in
all works of public improvement
II can only express again my regret that
the officers of the company have published
the resolution, and have brought this matter
to the attention Of the public before the whole
case could have been properly presented
Ex-Mayor Hodges and Thomas NJ. Lanahan
have also spoken through the press, fully en-
dorsing Mr.. Germans views.

DON'T BLOCK UP THE WAY.

Ifyou have no liking
For the march of life,
And had rather tarry
Than to join the strife;
Ifyou think the labor
Far exceeds the pay,
Take your choice, but, neighbor,
Don't block up the way.
Let these young men pass you
With their bucklers bright,
Rank and file they may be-
Novices in fight;
But they'll win the battle
Eager, strong are they;
Hear their amor rattle
Don't block up the wa.
More, yes, more are coming;
Aye, the highways teeml
These are early reapers,
See their siekles CLEAN
Working while the sun shines,
Little time to play,
Reapers come, and CLEANERS
Don't block up the way.
See the veterans marching
Gray, yet full of FIRE;
Action" is the watehword
Passed from sire to sire;
They will ne'er give over
Till they gain the day;
Toward the goal they're tending
Don't block up the way.
Take the wall, oh, idler-
Inthe shadows hide;
Never stand a minute
'Gainst the human tide!
Tides must ebb and flow, man,
Currents have full play;
Make room for the workers
Don't block up the way.
