,eeu expected would follow his
His case OF all others |
vas peculiar. Under the circum.
tances considering all the facts
.elating to the gentleman per
his public career here
md his trial by the military COM
mission, the Government is do
ng a just thing in giving him
mis- freedom. In the heat of
battle and when every one was
exercised over the events of Jan
uary it was not to be expected
that any other result than was
by the prisoners
would follow, but now that mat
terS have $ tiled down in the old
groove it is probable the council
will reconsider quite a number
OF the cases and pursue the same
course that taken in the case OF
V. V. Ashford. Among the
masses on both sides OF the poll
teal fence such action would be
endorsed.
If there is any doubt in the
minds OF the people who use
wire fence regarding the quality
of the wire we sell; if there is
any one who believes that Amer
Ican galvanized wire is superior
in quality to the European arti-
Gle, the little story we tell here
should convince them OF their
mistake. Our European wire
has been tested at the iron works
and shows a tensile strength of
200 pounds--that is to say the
wire was stretched by machinery
and when the indicator showed
200 the wire parted. Again it
was tested by being rolled
around an iron bar and pounded
to ascertain whether the galva-
nizing would come off and
whether the anneal ng wa, all
right. Every test was satisfac-
tory as the samples in our store
will prove. But there were peo
pie then who wanted nothing that
was made where the govern
ments were of monarchial form
Americo-maniaCs, il the term
may be allowed, and who insisted
upon their cattle scratching then
backs upon American wire. We
ordered a hundred coils and put
it through the same tests exactly
that had been given the Europe
an article. The wire broke al
100 pounds, the galvanizine
cracked when it was hammered
and the annealing was imperfect
The result is we have a hundred
coils of beautiful looking wire
on our hands that we would not
sell at any price, because it wouic
injure our WIRE trade for ever
Talk about cattle rubbing theil
backs against it, why, if cal
should fall against it, it woulc
break in pieces.
For good, strong economical
fencing the Jones Locked shoulc
be adopted and it should be
made OF the wire we sell. The
stays cost six cents each and the
washers necessary to fasten the
wire to them about two
cents. The stays may be useC
from six to thirty feet apart &C
cording to the character OF thu
ground and the purpose 70
which the paddock is to b
used. People who have trie'
the fence like it and recommen'
it to their friends. We have
large stock of wire, stays an,
washers, and we will be please
to supply the material or any ii
formation concerning it to pee
pie who use fences.
We have lately received tn
Cutest and best tea strainers IN
aginable, and we sell them for
quarter each. They are mad
with a spring fastening that fit
around the spout and prevent
4 the strainer from webbing.
You should try one if you wan
a good thing.
Dietz Oil Stoves that are goo,
bakers, broilers and genera
cookers can be had from us TO
. about the same price that yo
pay for a good wood stove. Tn
Dietz is absolutely tree from III
pleasant odors and without tn
slightest danger Of explosion
Kerosene oil is cheaper than an
other fuel and the result is thu
a meal cooked on one OF thel
averages for fuel about thre
cents, In a warm climate ther
is nothing more convenient {
better taan a Dietz Stove.
