ADVICE TO MERCHANTS.

The Most Important Time and the
Most Direct Way to Reach the Trade.
"Strike while the iron is hot ;" an old, but
q practical saying. The month of June
presents the time of the year when every
enterprising merchant wishes to UNLOAD"
his stock OF spring goods and make room
for midsummer merchandise. 1t is very
important that they proclaim their ad-
vantages in the special offerings now-now,
when the people are in a better financial
position to accept the offers made by mer-
chants in their various lines of business.
Judicious advertising is the only way to
reach the great public. Summer snap
schemes and unreliable newspapers do not
accomplish profitable results. The only
legitimate, square and beneficial adyertis
Ing is that placed IN q newspaper which
reaches the general public and is circula ted
among those who are readers that will ap-
preciate the true motive OF honest adver-
Using.
The MORNING NEWS offers unusual ad-
vantages in next Sundays issue for adver-
tisers. Being the very best medium to reach
the public, the merchants will readily see
that this paper can bring results more per-
manently effectual than any other adver-
Using offered
II the merchants Of Savannah want to
take advantage of the profitable advertising
offered in the midsummer number of the
MORNING News, they will send in their
copy early to-day. to secure space in the
leading journal of the southeast. and there
fore be benefited by the superior results
offered in Sundays issue.

The chairman announced that the cleo
tion Of permanent chairman and secretary
for the district was in order.
P. J. McEneneauy, Alderman OBrien
and William Gibbons were named. Secre-
tary Corish put the vote. The vote upon
McEneneany's name was so nearly unani-
nous that vote was not taken upon the
other two names and he was declared
elected permanent district chairman for two
years. j. J. Corish was unanimously elected
permanent secretary.
This was step further than was taken
by the other districts, to which
It did not occur that there
was any necessity Tor permanent district
organization. 1t is not plain just what is
intended to be accomplished by district Or
gantzation. 1t has not been authorized by
the county executive committee. The First
district meeting adjourned after about
three-Quarters of an hours session.

A FIGHT ON SHERIFF ROMAN.
A Story of the Substitution of His
Name for Col. MERGERS.

A Story of the Substitution OF His
Name for Col. MERGERS.
Some of the friends of Sheriff John T.
Roman tell peculiar story with regard K
the substitution Of his name for that Of Col
George A. Mercer In the First and Second
districts.
81 have it that it was intended TO kill
Romans chances FOR another term as
sheriff." said one Of them to a MORNING
NEWS reporter after the First district meet
ing bad adjourned.
BY using the sheriff in an attempt to
kill off Col. Mercer as a committeeman at
large ID is hoped to provoke the antagonism
OF Col. MERGERS friends, so that. when cleo
ton day comes, IL there is an opposition
candidate in the field for sheriff they will
give him their support in preference to
Roman. That is the way it was given 20
them, and am inclined to believe there is
good foundation for it.

Things were looking ugly when Central
Railroad Policeman Blakewood ran across
the street and sent in an alarm for the

held them for the wagon. while the other
disturbers made themselves as scarce as
possible in the neighborhood. The wagon
was at the scene about four minutes after
the alarm was sent in.

Political mass meetings for nominating
purposes have now passed into history so
far as Chatham county is concerned. Here
after the people will express their choice
through the ballot in the primary. All the
city districts, and it is supposed all Of the
country districts as well, carried out the
dictates of the party as expressed at the
recent theater meeting In the city districts
the programme was a cut and dried affair.
The politicians had been cGucusing for
days and had settled upon tickets
and arranged their plans 80 that
last nights meetings were merely form.
A caucus ticket had been agreed upon by
the districts for the committeeman at large
1t was the understanding that this COM
mittee was to be supported at all the mass
meetings, but the First and Second districts
failed to do so. The Third and Fourth
stood solidly to the agreement The Fourth
district supported the caucus ticket
handsomely, only % negative votes
being cast, out of over 800.
The First and Fourth district meetings
were little prolonged. and we're marked
by the usual features Of mass meetings, but
the Second and Third districts rushed things
through and carried out the prearranZed
plans in remarkably short time.
The Third district was the only one to de-
clare in favor OF court house primaries.
