To THE FRIENDS AND LOVERS OF Music,
Henderson, n. c.,
Greeting:-I desire to call your atten-
ton to the fact that am now employed
by Otto Sutro Il Co. in their superb
Temple OF Music, Baltimore, Md. This
establishment is the largest and most
complete throughout the entire world.
1t embraces everything pertaining to
music, with over a million copies of sheet
music always in stock. The house i'm
ports on a very large scale sheet music
and band instruments of every descrip-
ton. Mr.. Sutro himself makes an an

customers the opportunity of receiving
his personal selection of the latest foreign
editions of both instrumental and vocal
music, and furthermore can guarantee
to furnish any piece of music published.
Besides being importers, the firm OF Otto
SutrO & Co. are wholesale dealers and
publishers which, with the above advan-
tages, gives them better facilities for
supplying the wants of the musical world
than any other house in existence. This
building fronts on Baltimore street,

eight stories high, four stories of which
are used exclusively as sales rooms for
p'ohoo anu vi tHE 'oCClhNdS iclHo

Being employed by the above firm,
desire to solicit the patronage, both

that of teachers, to whom we make spe-

SENATOR SHERMAN admits the Cour-
age and ability of President Cleveland
in a way few other Republicans do,
however much they may be SO impress
ed. He says:
Cleveland is, perhaps, the broadcast
minded man that ever sat in the
Presidents chair. Beyond any OF
his predecessors he has the courage
and the faculty of pushing all cabal
aside and of addressing himself di-
rectly to the people. Friends, personal
following, party, are nothing to him as
compared to the welfare of the people.
With my natural distrust of all Demo
Gratis might be tempted to look upon
this phase of Cleveland'S conduct
merely as a bit of the ablest oi
,olitics, but in honesty | must admit
that | have watched this man in all
the crises of the national life in which
he has had part, and | cannot shake
off the conviction of his superb abilities,
and his magnificent patriotism.

Taxation Without Representation.

DIR. Hemphill of the Calvary Presby-
terian church, San Francisco, lately gave
a Sunday evening lecture on "Woman's
Rights and Wrongs" in which he de-
clared his unqualified support of wom-
ans right to vote. He called attention
to the different standards of education
for the two sexes; the fact that only
within the present generation women
were permitted to enter the professions;
to the different standard Of wages, where
women who do the same work as men
as well or sometimes better are paid 25
per cent less; to the different standard
of taxation, where women who are prop
erty holders are compelled to pay in tho
same ratio as men. and are yet denied
the right of franchise.
The action of our forefathers in emp
tying the British tea into Boston harbor
was mentioned in connection with the
injustice Of taxation without representa-
ton, and the speaker said that IF taxa
ton of men under these circumstances
is tyranny, taxation of women under
similar conditions is downright infamy"
