ing a just thing in giving him
his 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
experienced by the prisoners
would follow, but now that mat
tiers have settled down in the old
groove it is probable the council
will reconsider quite 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
lean 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 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 il
was tested by being ROLLED
around an iron bar and pounded
to ascertain whether the galva
nizing would come off anC
whether the anneal ng was al
right. Every test was satistac
tory as the samples in our store
will prove. But there were PEG
pie then who wanted nothing tina
was made where the govern
ments were of monarChial form
Americo-maniacs, if the tern
may be allowed, and who INSISTED
upon their cattle scratching thel
backs upon American wire. W.
ordered a hundred coils and pu
it through the same tests exaCtl,
that had been given the Europe
an article. The wire broke a
100 pounds, the galvanizins
: cracked when it was hammered
and the annealing was imperfect
The result is we have a hundred
coils of beautiful looking wir
on our hands that we would no
l sell at any price, because it woui'
f iniure our wire trade for ever
: Talk about cattle rubbing thei
backs against it, why, if a cal
should tall against it, it woul
break in pieces.
For good, strong economical
fencing the Jones Locked shoul
be adopted and it should b
} made OF the wire we sell. Tn
stays cost six cents each and tn
washers necessary to fasten tn
wire to them about tw
cents. The stays may be use
from six to thirty feet apart al
cording to the character of tn
| ground and the purpose 70
f which the paddock is to b
used. People who have trie

5 large stock of wire, stays an
washers, and we will be please
to supply the material or any il
formation concerning it to pee
