The Davies and Thomas Springdale foun-
dry and machine works at Catasauqua, Pa.

coo per month.

But SO Far There IL No Sign ofIt. Tho
Cloud OF Uncertainty Still Hovers
over Business.
r. G. Dun Il Co.'S Weekly Review Of
Trade" New York SAYS
The cloud Of uncertainty does not lift as
vet. Strong confidence is expressed in
nearly all markets that trade must improve
with the new year but it is yet too early to
expect important changes ifthey are really
on the way. In the main the conditions
continue unaltered. The proposal OF an
income tax is not calculated to inspire con-
fdence, nor does It encourage hope that
uncertainty about revenue laws will be
speedily terminated.
Money from the interior s;il foods this
market, commercial inactivity causing the
amount OF idle funds 10 swell beyond h'I
precedent and rates are so low that specula-
ton might be dangerously stimulated II
feeling of hopefulness prevailed,
Thusit may be fortunate that diminished
earnings repress ardo' in stock speculation
and heavy supplies in sight deter specua-
ton in products. -

The syndicate of Eastern investors
who desired to take up land in the
Carson Valley, are now investigating
the southern part of the State.
They say the land is held very
to purchase, and that the high rail-
road freights are also a drawback.
They are turning towards the South
ern part of Nye county as it is on the
same isothermal line in Los Angeles
and will be cut by the new railroad.
1t is pity that people of this part
of the State are so short sighted as to
raise the price of land as soon as in
vestors show up.

Jones' Farewell.

The farewell of Jones to the Re-
publican party contains some poetic
quotations, to which with, the kind
permission of the Senator, we would
suggest the following in addition:
My boat is on the shore,
My bark is on the sea,
Before | leave Tom Reed,
Here's double curse to thee.
The Shylocks at the board
Brought famine to the feast,
Ye robbed the h, n ,st west,
To feed the thieving east.
We stood in marble halls
Where votes were bought and sold,
And saw the hords of men
Bow down to British gold.
The loom has ceased to hum,
The anvil rings no more,
The hungry wolf of want,
Stands warder at the door,
The marts of crime are worn
With tread of crimson feet,
For men have left the herd
And garner not the wheat.
And everywhere the gold trust
Has held it's cursed sway,
There's rust upon the engine wheels,
And ships rot in the bay.
My boat is on the shore,
My bark is on the sea,
And may God bless the day
That lived to set me free.

THE DRUMMER NUISANCE.
Men That Newspapers viii 90
Well to Copper.

The class of men who work the
press more than any others for free
| advertising, are the drummers. A
| very smooth set are these peripa-
tetic representatives of San Fran
cisco houses,
Here is about the way they ''work }"
a newspaper. As soon as they reach
a town they realize that a LEGAL notice
of their arrival will be of great ad-
vantage to them with business men.
Ii they are strangers it saves them a
good deal of trouble, explaining who
they are, and If known the men
whom they expect to deal with will
be all ready for them. They make
for the newspaper and rush in with a
beamy smile and outstretched hand.
"Are You the editor of the Daily
Whanger? Well I'm devilish glad to
see you. Jim Page often tells me
about you. He considers your pa
per about the best on the coast.
Don't know Jim Pagel Why of
course you know Jim. Well he
knows you; he just swears by you"
The editor tries vainly to recall
Jim Page, and finally the drummer
persuades him that he once years ago
was out to the Cliff House with him;
went on a big toot with him and
wound up with big dinner at Tor
toni's, If he can't exactly recall it,
the vivid way the drummer describes
the racket soon persuades him that
he has known Jim for over twenty
years. Then the drummer throws
down his card. He is representing
the great house of wholesalers, Ket-
chum, Grabbum & Co.
Then the drummer begins to spin
some yarns, (drummers always tell
good yarns.) Then the editor must
spin few and presently an hours
time is consumed Then the drum
mer takes him down the street for a
drink, and before he gets through
another half hour is gone Then the
editor is expected to GO back and
write the following:
"Billy Smith, the affable young
drummer of Ketchum, Grabbum & |
Co., the leading San Francisco
wholesale Honor dealers is in the city
greeting HIS hoste of friends. he is
one of the livliest men on the road |
and the house that can secure his
services is indeed fortunate"
New if there is any reason in the
world why local newspapers should
keep continually putting up the
of San Francisco
houses, who never advertise in a pa
per in the State, and who are run
ming home opposition to the mer-
chants who do advertise, we would
like to have it pointed out.
The APPEAL has long ago estab-
ished tariff of 81 90 for drummers
whenever they want notice of their
arrivals in this city.

Hints to the Z. NJ.

Our new Postoffice is a very fine
thing as an architectural proposition,
but in some respects it has its draw
backs. People desiring to mail let
tiers are obliged to climb a pair of
stone steps some distance from the
street. Parties III vehicles have to
hitch their horses to the telegraph
pole when they mail letters. Now
it might be good idea to place a
mail box on that telegraph pole so as
to save steps and it could also be
hung in such way that man in a
buggy could mail u letter without
getting out of his vehicle. A hitch
ing chair with snap on the end
fastened to the post or even hitch
ing ring would be welcomed by a
good many people, There is now
not even a sill. in the door whore a
letter can be mailed after the office
is closed at night.
The old Pustoffice had small desk
where people could lay their mail
when they had number Of letters
to read, hut there is none in the
new one, Several changes could be
made which would he great accom-
mediation to the public and cost but
trifle If the Washington author
tiles will not make the change we
suggest that the Postmaster show his
public spirit by making them him
