Van Buren, Moving On.

Ifany OF our citizens wh, are lhc'ih-
ed to be dispondent over the old time
hobby of "hard tilnes," will take q
look about town, they will discover
quiet boom-not spasmodic-but one
all along tho line, with firm, lasting
foundation. New stores and new
dwellings are going up in every di-
rection, and some of the dwellings
will be highly creditable to cities of
fifty thousand inhabitants.
In point of business outlook there is
no town in the State that has greater
promise. The monthly pay rolls
amounts to large amounts: The Rail-
roads, $50, 900; Water Works, $4,000 /;
River Improvement, $40, 900; can0ing
Factory, $i5, 900; Building interest and
Cotton Compress, $25, 1000; Berry and
small fruits, $1,000; Together With II
number of smaller enterprises not
enumerated.
We candidy ask what better or
more encouraging outlook, considering
the financial condition of the county,
has any town or city in the State than
Van Buren,? The fact that railroad
employees are buying homes and build
lug new ones, foreshadows the per-
manency of our railro I'd interests and
enterprises and the greater enlarge
ment of their already extensive work.
DEAR PRESS Did you ever stop to
think what an immense amount of
cash was expended in Van Buren, by
manufacturing and local interest
daily? Did you know that:
Twenty-Five hundred dollars day
is the estimate placed daily ON straw
berries for the next 40 days?
That, seven hundred is daily paid
employees of the Mo. Pacific Railroad ;
and it will last forever?
That, the Government works has a
pay roll Of one hundred and fifty dol
lars day and that 1t will last for
six months?
Did you know that, the water works
is expending one hundred dollars q
day among our citizens and it will be
quite while before they can call
their work finished?
That, the Long Bell Lumber Co. has
an outlay ofone hundred and seventy
five dollars daily and 1t, like the above
nearly all spent in our city?
That, there is in consequence O
above more houses now under, ant
contemplated construction than there
ever was?
That, all who want to invest in rea
estate had better hustle out now an6
get them lot else some one else will
gobble 1t up?
Did you know that, the above Il
s., 1875 daily scattered over this littl'
8, 500 populated town and that 1t doei
not more than one-half represent thu
amount of cash daily expended?
See our future dear PRESS, see tn,
amount OF vegetables that will b,
ready in q few weeks for the Northern

of the eight millions of Strip none,
come drifting in; see our crops mar
keted, see our merchants In other tha,
above named enterprises, our farmer
In general. Our professional and offlc
men, salesman aud all, then you will
quickly see that our daily pay roll
Is much nearer 50, $50 day than yol

STORIES OF THE DAY.
nIeat at FIve pollars a Pound.

This morning an EVENING JOURNAL
reporter was walking up Market street
when he saw five diminutive fox terriers
in the store of dog fancier and dealer.
The little fellows had not been In the
world many weeks-just long enough for
their tails to be locked and not long
enough for them TO get over the kurt.
How much do you ask for your pupsY =
asked the reporter.
"Only $25 apiece for the males and $40
for the females. was the reply. THE
time WAS, not long since. either,
when the females sold for 500 but the
laws Of supply and demand have pulled
down the price fifty per cent And then
this financial scare has had some effect on
the trade. A man doesn't want C. give
50 a pound for a foX-terrier Ia such
uncertain times as these"
DO you have much trouble getting
rid Of them at the prices you have
quotedY
Ordinarily we do not. Pups Of this
breed are usually sold before they are
born. All of these are engaged but one.
That fat little fellow you see back there
in the corner was bought by the leading
actor in q theatrical company which
recently played here. AS soon as he is
old enough l shall ship him away. That
one crying 10 get out goes to a man
over In New Jersey
"You consider them worth the money!
CAS- the dog market quotations go,
yes. II is a mistake TO regard the fox
terrier as a pet. He is a sporty dog, and
his good qualities we're first appreciated
by the young bloods of England They
appreciated everything but his tail, and
this they locked The fad, including
the dock, soon spread TO this country
and the terrier has been the king bee
for some years"
What commendable qualities do you
ascribe to a fox terrier2'
"In the first place, he is brave, and
will fight to the death. It has rot beer
so very long since a 2i-pound fox terrier
killed 81 pound bulldog in New York
and won a $4,000 purse. That is bu
one instance. Then again the terrier il
clean house-dog; good ratter and /
faithful watch dog"
Some time ago you had litter o
Japanese terrier pups Did you sci

They were Barney McVey's."
What did they bringl"
"Oh, the same-$25 for males and 81
