ANOTHER RECORD BROKEN.
J. j.. o'Brien & Co.'s Great Sale
- Sweeps Everything Before It.

J.s" il. O'Br1en O CO.'S Great Sale
-; Sweeps Everything Before 1t.
%, Although }. j. O'Bren g. Co.'s special
sales are famous for the attractions Of
fersd. and the crowds that attend them,
the great special sale that they commenced
: this week is breaking all previous records
both In attendance and in the marvellous
bargains given.
This sale. as announced by their MAN.
moth full-page advertisements in THE
GAEL. is the result of gigantic special
purchases made by Mr.. J. j. O'BrIen dur
ing his recent visit to New York. These
purchases were made at the time the
financial stringency was the greatest,
when many manufacturers and importers
were forced to turn their stocks into cash
regardless of loss, and the goods were
bought by Mr.. O'Brien at sacrifice that
will prDbably never again be equaled.
4 hese purchases EN- mbrace all the latest
and choicest productions in the new sea-
sons goods, and combined with the firms
enormous regular importations make up a
stock cf sucn vast magnitude that lis i'm
mediate reduction became imperative,
hence the sale, which, occurring as it does
just at the height of the fall season, and
sff0rding buyers an opportunity to replen-
ish supplies with new aud fashionable
goods at astounding reductions from regu-
lar prices, is sweeping everything before it.

EDITORS NOT IN IT.

The Inspiration Of the Pres will Net be
Ciogged by the CAGES Of Public Once
During Mr.. Cleseiand's Administrations.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-The Post
says: THE assertion that editors are
not generally to be recognized by the
new administration is true. Mr.. Cleve-
land believes that mis- predecessor suf-
fered through the charge of having
subsidized the press and he does
not intend to run the same gaunt-
let. The decision is also to be made
particularly applicable to newspaper
men who desire to be postmasters in
their towns.
Mr. Bissell has had the names of
some country editors. presented to MIN
in connection with various post Offices.
but has declined to give any encour-
agement to the office-seeker. He lays
down the principle that in small towns
all the utteranees of the newspaper
over which the postmaster-editor pre-
sides would be regarded as the views
of the administration. while on the
other hand all praise Of Mr.. Cleveland's
acts will be discounted because it
eminatea from the recipient of Official
favor Therefore. Mr. Bissell does no.
propose to appoint any editors to be
postmasters, and the president will OBJ
serve the same ruie in disposing Of
