How 10 Avoid the DuII Season.

 Some thirty New York merchants gave public iatervIsws 8 year or so Ego of the nsfnod they employed to avoid ihe dull season in trade. All of them agreed that since they had adopted the poltsy of aa vertising in the widely read newspapers steadily through the sumtnar they had no dull seescn in their trade. Mos: of them stated that, instead of lessening their Ad vertising In the dull season of trade. they increased 1t, and found ii to be profitable The merchant who can offer the people whsL they want, or what they are certain to want al au early day. can Alwsys have plenty of patronage. He must moi only have the article ihAs is wanted, but be must have it ss good Re 't can be had any where; and he muat rot onls advertise it, but he must a3periite il with artistic and | literary httrRctIve1NEs.

When the joint resolution to in
Struct our Senators and Representa-
tive in Congress to favor the exten-
sion OF time asked by the Central
Pacific Railroad Company in which
to pay it's debts to the Government,
comes up for action in the Assembly,
the lNDEPENDEET expects some IDem-
bers Of the Silver party to amend it
by adding, "Prouided it does not
interfere with the free and unlimited
coinage OF silver" It is not right TO
hamper our Senators and Represen
tatives with instruction to support
any bill that could possibly conflict
with their duty to Nevada on the
silver question.
The people who want this extension
of time do not all reside In Wall
Street, but they are nearly all mill
ionaire gold bugs, and if our Senators
and Representatives are not tied up
by cast iron resolutions they could go
TO the advocates Of the measure and
say "Give us fres coinage or pay your
debts" and in this way win votes for
the paramount industry Of Nevada.
This was the argument made by
every Silver party paper in the State
against the Nicaragua Canal resolu-
tions and it seems to us t? have the
came force in the case Of the Central
Pacific Railroad Company.
II the proviso We suggest is not
made q part OF the original resolution,
the Silver party ss represented IN the
Legislature, will be open to the
charge of favoritism in dealing with
two great rival corporations. Be con-
sistent though the heavens fall.
