BEE HlvEFORCE!

proprietors and clerks-wheth-
er we go up or down. Unlike
the declarations ef political
platforms on the Tariff, Reve-
nue., &c, we shall not change
our position to suit any certain
class. Cur platform contains
FIVE PLANkS:
lst. TO sell everything ar
the very lowest possible living
prices.
I'd. To never knowingly
misrepresent an article to ei-
feet a sale.
Sd To treat everybody with
uniform courtesy, whether rich
or poor, white or black.
4th. To never sell on time,
thereby saving To our custom
ers the heavy loss consequent
to credit business.
5th. To mark everything in
plain figures at the selling pre-,
having but one price to all.
To our first four planks we
hardly think there will be IL
dissenting voice among he
trading public, but our fifth
plank may cause mnrmir of
dissatisfaction among some peo-
pie who are always wanting
something better than their
neighbor hat they dom de-
serve, and then ii may rufiie souae : l,u are
