oh Yes! Paw as You Go.

A short time ago one business house
closed up, not because the sales were
insufficient, but because there was not
enough cash taken to run the busi-
ness. We learn from one of the pro-
prlet0rS OF one Of the best business in
StltutlOnS that the same condition
prevails with them and unless there
IS more cash taken in. they will seek a
new location. 1t is generally believed
that there is more money in the
country than appears in the general
run OF business. We heard a man re-
mark sometime ago that a certain
man owed him and had money i'm the
bank and would not pay him. 1t used
TO be said Of another man that he
loaned his money at two per cent. a
month and stood off his store bills for
months at time. The best thing
That could happen to this country
would be to bring business to a cash

EDITOR VOICE:-It is not often that
l Try 10 write Tor the press, but the
above utterances are so small that |
cannot help but take a little notice of
1t. The editor of the Clipper starts
out by saying a short time ago one of
our business houses closed up not be-
cause there was nobody to buy or that
nobody needed anything, but because
there was no money in the country to
do the business.
No, that is not what he said, but
that is what it amounts to. He only
lacked the courage to say so. He also
hints that there is another firm in the
same fix, but that they propose to en-
igrate to a more c0ngenial cline.

fraud on its face. Anybody with any
self respect would not be guilty of
making such falsifying statements.
Now, if the editor of the Clipper
would read up and inform himself he
will find that the same state of affairs
exist outside of ArgOnia and that it is
not confined to one or two localities,
but to every place and country where
the blighting influence OF Wall Street
is supreme.

Hudson's bribery sensation seems
to be boomerang. 'Those who live
in glass houses should not throw
stones" No one will object to a
newspaper exposing dishonesty in any
party, but they should stick to the
truth and be sure they are right be-
fore attempting to smirch the charac-
ter Of honest men. No friend OF Gov
ernor Lewelling, Attorney General
Little or Fred J. Close ever believed
for moment that they were guilty
of accepting bribe money and it is
no surprise that the Capital has
failed to substantiate its charges.
But the investigation will probably
do good, as it has and will be the
means of showing up the corrupt and
desperate schemes of the Republi-
cans. Let no guilty man escape.

The Republicans will make great
effort TO elect their tickets In the
cities and towns at the coming April
election. Meeting with good success
they will use the results for all they

They should not forget, however,
that at the fall election we will have
the Australian ballot and the rural
districts will take a hand. Then
they will get left.

An Eccentric New Yorker.

AL GSSCAbAAS ANS"
Albany Express:
In the Utica State hospital yes
terday died George Pendleton VIII
cox. one of the most eccentric char
acters in Mohawk Valley. He was
20 years of age. He sand his wife,
whose brother was Francis Spin
ner, of Mohawk, eX-treasurer of the
United Srates, were taken to the
hospital three years ago as both
were insane.
Mr.. Wilcox passed nearly all of
his life in Little Falls,
and was known to most of the res
idents. He and his wife were bril-
liant writers. Several years ago he
publishee a work which he called
1.-THE Philosophy of the Human
Mind He had great command
of language, and his eruditiOn was
perfect. He was a correspondent
for number of New York papers,
and wrote on farming and other
interests. He also contributed to
the Little Falls papers.
Some years ago Mr.. Wilcox
achieved considerable nOtOrie-
ty by procIaiming that a
horse conld live on only
one Oat and a dram of
hay day. He rode through the
streets behind an old horse, upon
which he was trying to carry out
his new-fangled theory. He fed
the horse the one oat and the dram
of hay each day. The horse finally
died of starvation. In the summer
of 1889 Mr.. WilcoX's mind became
demented, as did also that of his
wife, and the aged couple were re-
moved to Utica to spend the last
years of their life in an insane
ward-a part of the world, and yet
not of it. One day Wilcox got the
idea that he belonged to the State
militia, and being the only major
general in the state, said he ought
to have command of the entire
military forces of the state.
Considerable property was accu-
mulated by Wilcox, and at one
time he was worth $4,000. He
formed the Rural Grove Cemetery
association, and sold lots in it for
paste diamonds and flint lock guns.
He never was engaged in active
business.
