noon, when all of the usual purchasers
were up town.
MIR. johnson was satisfied that growers
and shippers favored the auctions as the
best means of getting good prices for
their goods. He said, however, that
many of the producers were so tied to
local commission men, through advances
made on their crops, that they had no
option in the matter of shipping.
On the matter of the Gamers refusing
to attend the sales Mr.. Johnson said that
their main objection was that they were
placed on an equal footing with peddlers.
They did not relish this idea, believing
that they should be given a preference in
the buying.
Mr.. Johnson said that the system would
probably be revived next spring. and
that in the meantime an effort would be
made TO obtain more concerted action
in favor OF the plan.

KNOCKED DOWN AND ROBBED.

Alleged Adventure of Belated Citizen
with Footpads.
A man named Mcdonald reports that
he was assaulted at an early hour yester-
day morning on Seventh street, between
X and l., by two sootpads. He says they
sprang upon and knock ed him down with
brick and then robbed him of silver
watch and few dollars in money.
Mcdonald declares that several men
witnessed the assault but were apparently
afraid to interfere. If this be true it
would be interesting to know who the
brave citizens were that they might be
presented with leather medals.

Will cure You, is true statement of the
action of AYERS Sarsaparilla, when
taken for diseases originating in impure

has enjoyed a reputation, and made
record for cures, that has never been
equaled by other preparations. AYERS
Sa4saparilla eradicates the faint of he
