Novice" has misquoted ks" state
ment in the REGISTER of the 9th inst.
We stated that you could get IL pounds
of standard granulated sugar at Pilot
Knob for 81 instead of 16. This is no
especial customer" but holds good
for all, without regard to ''race, color
or previous condition of servitude.
At the time the above mentioned arti
Gle was written sugar cost $50 cents
per pound; since then the price has
lowered and at the present writing it
costs cents per pound. Let Novice"
inquire at some of the Pilot Knob stores
as to the price of sugar, and the hOr-
rors of the Mckinley bill, like death,
will be robbed of half of their sting.
We may also mention that the Pilot
Knob merchants are (pardOning slang)
strictly in it," and sell everything else
accordingly low.
