Mr.. Chas Peyser's aim in life is TO
be on TOP and make a success Of
manufacturing a first class cigar. and
his ri Tropico brand, Which is nation
81, Is evidence that he is succeeding.
But Peyser's mind is active. He is
quick to observe . point Of vantage,
and equally prompt 10 pre-empt HE
same. A case in point is his latest and
best five cent smoaker, "Peyser's
Chief"
OF course it refers to the firemen's
tournament, and there is where his
strong business common sense asserted
itself, in creating cigar named after
Chief G. H. Campbell, Of pure Havana
filler, with an excellent Sumatra
wrapper. It is beauty, and its
smoaking qualities are the talk and
admiration Of the town.
He placed the brand Of cigars on
sale Saturday night, and they took
like wildfire among the fire laddies,
and BY Sunday evening the Postofiice
Drug Store had sold two boxes.
Not only is the cigar well made and
attractive, but the box has q finish in
Chief Campbell's likeness that IS IN
keeping with the cigar, and the Bor-
ders aiming ling Of the box. Score an
other success for "Peysor's Chief.''
You will find the cigars for sale at
all the principal stands In town.
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1894-11-09


The Banner is requested to note the
fact that the claims set up by the Ma
rion Times and and New Capitol that
they were the first to mention the ad s.
visibility OF abolishing the county
treasurer's Office is an error. City Tax
Collector Simon Benjamin, when q
county commissioner four years ago,
suggested the abolition Of the Office
Is useless, and requested the Hon. III.
w. Long when he was elected to the
legislature to took into the matter and
introduce bill to abolish the office.
Mr.. Long reported that the Office
could not be abolished without chang
ing the state constitution, so the mat
ter was dropped.
Hence the glory taken BY the papers
named disappears as they wrongly APP
propriate what justly belongs 10 Mr.
Benjamin.
However, the local editor Of the
Banner in his campaign canvass Of
1888, advocated the same matter;
doesn't care who knows or don't know
it, wants no commentator for his
suggestion and would be pleased to see
any measure adopted 10 relieve the tax
payers Of the county from maintain-
Ing useless Office.

and doffed his cap and bowed like little
