olIT or IT'S OWN MOUTH.

The lies which are being circulated
about the Carnegie establishment, the
rates of wages paid, the cause OF the

newspapers, are simply outrageous. II
Is blot upon journalism that such
mendaci:y should be employed for q

What the reading public want most, in
reference TO this matter, are facts and
honest statements, not lies and indis-
criminate denunciation. The demo-
free trade party will learn, before the
present political campaign 10 ended ,
the truth of the trite maxim that
honesty is the best policy. The CAM

cracy by means of q monstrous and
concerted system of lying The false.

Furniture Arrivals.

All day long yesterday furniture men
were t1ocking into town. The Morton
house was . swarming mass Of sellers
and buyers. There are dead loads of
them, and they are all enthusiastic
over the outlook. Any one that gains
the impression that they came here TO
loaf and to make the welkin ring is sadly
mistaken. No one in the city works
any harder or any more industriously
than the buyers and sellers. The y

folding beds and walnut side boards.
