A. T. STEWARDS START IN LIFE.

.
The idea that A. T. Stewart began
life in New York penniless is 80
deeply rooted in the public mind that
it is doubtful if people will ever
comprehend the true facts. Very
few men have as good chance for a
commercial opening as had the great
dry-goods prince. His entire fortune
was placed in his hands when he was
20 years of age and he was allowed
to do exactly as he pleased with it.
This fortune amounted to con-
siderable over $4,000. The first
purchase which Stewart made was in
the shape of big consignment of
Irish linens in Belfast. A lot of the
$4,000 went into this primary tran.
saction, and after he had sold the
goods at little shop on the corner
of Broadway and Chambers street he
found that ne had nearly doubled his
fortune, so that year after he had
established his business he had
nearly $4,000 in cash and a good
credit already established. With
such an equipment at 81 years, his
subsequent success loses something
of its marvellous character, particu--
larly when it is remembered that
the war tripled the value of all the
| bip commercial housas Iiknsfhat of A
T. Stewart & Co.-New York Sun.

FILTHY CAMPAIGNING.

We have witnessed some dirty
campaigns during the last 40 or so
years, but for down right filthy
language some of the papers of this
legislative district during the last
few months exceeds all we have ever
seen. If people abroad read those
papers, which they fortunately don't,
they would think we were nasty set;
it would work deleterIously to our
material prosperity; it would deter
decent people from settling among us.
If this is to continue two months
or more, we will need a second edi-
ton of st. Peters in the district.
The man must be of a very low
mental calibre who would change his
vote against a man because he is
vilified by degraded paper, and the
editors of such papers insults the in.
telligence of the people when
they imagine such thing.
The very best way for citizens to
Tebuke this system of abuse. is to
vote the solid democratic ticket this
fall, where there ears wont be
offended with such disgraceful falsi
tications, and defamation of cha.
