Aside from the profit that comes
to us as a result Of our equitable
business methods, there is possibly
a greater, or at least an equal, salts
faction in seeing the same familiar
faces ofmany who have been regu-
lar visitors and patrons since our
opening, March IL. 1866. One can
not help feeling at least secret
pride in this recognition Of conf
dence and trust. People would
hardly trade with us continuously
SO many years if we did not give
them satisfactory service. While
we would gladly see the town grow
more rapidly. and are contributing
our tuli share TO that purpose, we
OF course are more directly inter
ested IN our own growth as dis
pensers OF merchandise, and it is a
qualification to know that while we
have gained in cur output of goods
and amount OF sales every year, this
season bids fair to Guido all previous
ones by large majority. We con-
less that the increase is a surprise
to US. although We think we deserve
tive hope SO at least. We are
working just as earnestly and cater
ing just as carefully this year as we
did when we opened our store on
the corner 27 years ago. There is
yet room for Improvement on our
part, and there is yet room for more
patrons. All are welcome, and all
receive like treatment.

In these latter days there be liars and
lies and many of them too. House lies
and horse lies, hen lies and hog lies, and
don't mention it, but fish lies, too. On

innocent $50 called white lie. and the lie
of malice prepense, or black lie. Lies
that even good liars are ashamed OF, and
lies that are told for the truth and believed.
Ofthis latter we should class the follow
ing taken from an excellent little paper
which at present shall be nameless.

There is much force in the insistauce Of
Italy that If the constitution and laws of
the United States do not permit the Fed
eral Government to prosecute those who
violate the lights Of foreign residents. then
the C. Institution aud laN should be amend
ed. That's all right and sound jdrispru-
dence on the part of Italy, but what has
that goverumt to say to the demand
made tw ice over by this country for the
extradition of an Italian who was charge d
with murder here and fed TO Italy to es-
cape trial? What did she say at the time?
Why, that the constitution aud laws OF
Italy did not permit the surrender of an
Italian subject tor trial in another state.
This we think very greatly weakens the
force OF Itaiy's demand.

engines, a set of hook and ladders are in

night could have pulled "Foit Hemlock"

glad that our council have taken steps to-

The leading Republican editor of one OF
our metropolitan journals, in speaking Of
President HarIison's journey through the
South says:
Had the force bill which passed the
House. been endorsed by the Sehate, re
ceived Executive approval and prepara-
tons been made for carrying out It's dras
tic and menacing provisions. Benz jsmi-.
Harrison never would have made the tri.
umphal journey from the Potomac to the
Rio Graude, which he has just completed.
He could have gone over the same ground
with entire safety aud without any out@a
manifestation OF public disrespecu, but he
would have forcbly re,llzed the existence
OF a public sentiment of unqualified aud
deteImlped, if not resentful, condemnation.
The Force bill failed. The President
sees now for himself that it wouli not have
been a measure promotive of public peace
and prosperity"

NEW STORE UNDER THE
OPERA HOUSE

Our large store room under the
Opera House is crowded to the
doors with new and seasonable
goods. We have all good kinds OF
clothing for boys, youths and men,
selected with judgment and business
experience. In all our forty.one
years of buying and selling goods,
we have never shown a stock so
we'll selected, or one that we could
take as much pride in showing and
naming prices.
There are but few things in the

anywhere else. This assertion not
'nly includes this and adjoining
