MIR. Scott, the Alliance lecturer, spoke at the
Deer Creek school house Friday night to a full
house. We think he surprised some of the Al
lance fellows more than he did the Republicans
as he told different story from what we have
been hearing from such sources. He abused no
party, neither did he try to discourage anyone,
except that he raked some of the Alliance fell
lows over the head for abusing Republicans and
running the Alliance in politics He said ::
1--WE want Republicans and we want Democrats
to join the Alliance and we must have them to
make success. The Alliance is a business,
not political organization " As he is a Re-
publican in politics he understands the differ
ence between business and political organi-
cation. We doubt if the Alliance portion. of the
audience believed his theories or liked his lee
ture.

Three Dinners and . Contract.

Every one knows that the road to .
mans heart is through his stomcch, but
even a wife who wants a new spring
bonnet does not use the knowledge to so
good advantage IS the shrewd and willy
salesman.
short time ago there came to New
York a man who had the giving out of
an order for $200, 900 worth Of material
in his hands-something or other about
railroad construction, 1 believe. The
competition for the order was something
tremendous among the different firms
furnishing such material. The salesman
of one Of the firms invited the man with
the mission TO a dinner, and instructed
the chef to serve absolutely the best
dinner he could, without regard to price.
a few days later he repeated the invita-
ton, and within a week and half a
dinner was eaten, and the two men might
have been taken for friends of lifetime
when they got TO the cigars. An hour
afterward the contract was signed.
AS the salesman's commission on tho
order amounted to good many thous-
ands of dollars, he could afford to pay
for the dinners.
