seven saloons in town, who pay
s175 each into the town treasury,
on the first of day of May, amount

The town council has so far
amended its contract with the Point

POINT PLEASANT, w. VA,
GENTLEMEN:
Your are the only dealers in your
town authorized to handle our goods.
Any others offered for sale there
have been obtained indirectly and
are not warranted by us.
Yours Truly,
PINGREE & SMITH.
There is a wholesale system of
thievery and vandalism going on
around town, which will ultimately
land some one in the penitentiary.
Almost every night some ones
premises are entered and property
carried away or destroyed. Garden

are after.
Frank Stortz has bought the ice
business from his father, and will
supply the people of this town with
good lake ice on his own account.
Like-the good boy, he is, he will
not deliver ice on Sunday, and
those who want ice on the Sabbath
day, will have to secure it on Satur-
day evening. He is now ready to
take your orders.
This is the season when the city
sharper comes forth into the coun-
try seeking whom he may devour.
Be very careful how you deal with
strangers-very few angels are
travelling around in disguise these
times.
Ii we could run this office for
cash, we would have no occasion to
dun'our patrons, but as we don't do
so, we must send out bills and a
collector. Some people forget their
promises and have to be reminded
of their duty to their fellow-man.
The REGISTER does not print the
Fair catalogue this year. 1t has
been printed at this Office every
year except two since the organiza-
of the Fair. We hope the company
may get good job, and get their
work in good time.
No ono who wants to work need
be idle, so far os this town is con-
cerned. The demand for laborers
is greater than the supply.
No grander field is afforded any
where for wood working establish
ments than is presented by Point
Pleasant, because of her close con,
nection of the forests of the Great
Kanawha Valley, where the besr
timber in the world is to be found

furniture factory at Henderson i,
