Atlantic Tea Co.,
TEA IMPORTERS
AND
COFFEE ROASTERS.

We have just completed invoicing.
The result is very gratifying TO us. Not
so much for its money item value as the
fact that the year just closed has made
for us thousands of customers, showing
an increase far beyond our most sangu-
inc expectations. We feel grateful to-
ward every patron for the part they
have taken in supporting our honest
and successful battle against high prices.
At various times would-be competitors
have tried to mislead the public by as
sorting that we could not possibly sci
goods at the prices we advertise. This
persistent display of jealousy on their
part has materially strengthened us,
and while we appreciate the result OF
their conduct. we cannot but pity the
spirit that prompts such methods. We
fear no competition. We are not afraid
to advertise prices and the reputation
of our house is q sufficient guarantee
that you will find every article we sell
to be just what we say it is, and at just
the price we advertise. Victory always
inspires confidence. We therefore en-
ter the promising year Of 1891 with re-
newed vigor with a determination TO
beat our record of 1890.

NATURAL GAS FUEL.

Gas Bills, and Gas Bills Contrasted'
TO The Editor Of the Register.
SIR Your article yesterday headed Sen
eral Complaint was read and freely COM
mented on by consumers and others. II
YOU consult many consumers one column OF
your valuable space would suffice TO note
but small part of their remarks. Before
the introduction of meters we were in
formed that the cost would approximate
our first bills-some might be under, 9th
ers over
Secretary Scott cites two instances
where bills for Decemoe for five and ten
fires were 1855 and 81. - respectively, but
takes good care not TO mention those for
the same number of fires billed for $40, Sl5,
$50 or S25 each.
The assertion that lit is largely the fault
of the consumers that the bills are larger
than before meters were put in, y
may be told the marines, but won't be
accepted as a fact by the consumers who
during the month of December, knowing
they would have to pay for all the gas reg
stered, whether consumed or not, with all
their care and economy, found their bills
increased 10, 20, 80 and 100 per cent.
The gas, through perfect meters, should
show uniformity.
Do those in use do so. Ask consumers OF
like number of fires and you will lind a
difference of 10 TO 100 per cent.
The company secures the beneht Tor
three months, says Secretary Scott. Why
not amend and say six or seven months!
Yes, there is general complaint. Many
are running their meters this month, when,
if no decided reduction, there will be a
general howl and the number of coal fires
will replace the gas. GAS CONSUMER.

a Wife's Influence.

BRIDGEPORT. o., January -, '9l.
To The Editor Of the Sunday Register
SIR: In a late edition of the National
Labor Tribune there appeared an article in
reference to a member of the Local Union
having blacksheeped by leaving his work
at Wheeling creek and accepting position
at the Btna mines as track-layer, il being
non-unioh mine On the members of the
L. L. hearing of his action. summoned him
TO appear before the next session of the
L. T., which he did, and after having apol
ogized TO the lodge for what he had done,
asked to be reinstated to membership, which
was granted, but not until after fine of
$40 had been imposed and paid. Now,
there is one person TO whom the credit
should be given for his repentance, and
that one is his wife, she actually having
gone to the .Etna mines and took him out
and made him return TO his first love. Her
Labor friends presented her with fine
pair of kid gloves on Saturday last as an
appreciation of her noble act, and we think
she has established precedent that should
be initiated by the wife of every union
labor man under the same circumstances
and conditions UNION.

Out of Power.

The electric motors did not run last
night after : 30 o'clock, much to the incon-
venierce of the public. There was gen
eral complaint among the people who at
tended the theatres, and others when they
learned that they had to walk home The
trouble arose from the inability to raise
enough steam at the power house, as they
were using only one battery of boilers, the
other having been transferred to the new
station in the eighth ward. The one bat
terry could only raise enough steam TO run
the electric lights. Only about one-half the
usual number of motors will be used until
the new station is in working order.
