NEW YORK, March 12.-The old
carriage firm of J. B. Brewster &
Co., which failed last October, has
been reorganized, under the title
of j. B. Brewster & Co. James b.
Brewster is the president of the
new company, which starts with a
capital of $4,000. Most of the
stock has been taken by the old
employees of the house, and as far
as possible, the old workmen,
many of whom have been with the
firm for years, have been re-em-
ployed. The operating expenses
of the corporation have been re-
duced from $4,000 to $4,000 an
nually. Mr.. Brewster said last
night: eve start in again full of
hope for the future. Our failure
was caused by excessive expenses,
and we will avoid that rock in the
future"

PRINTERS TROUBLES.
The Typographical Union Investigat-
ing the Ely Charges.

The committee appointed by Typo
graphical Union No. 46 to investigate
the charges preferred against e. G. Ely,
prominent member Of the union-who
is accused of having made an effort to
nave reduction made in the wages
paid the printers in the State Ofice-met
yesterday, heard the testimony in the
case, and adjourned until another day
this week without taking any action.
Ely denies that he had suggested any
reduction in the wages, and intimates
that the reference made to the subject
at recent meeting Of the State Board
OF examiners, when the affairs of the
State Office were being discussed origi-
mated with Governor Budd. He claims
that the Executive has a letter written
by him last October in which he pro .
tested against any reduction in the rates
paid in the State Printing Office.
1t is said on behalf of the Governor
that he is equally positive in his denial
OF having entertained or expressed de-
sire to have wages reduced. And so the
matter stands. The committee of the
union printers has the testimony in it's
hands and Will make it's report sometime
this week. The issue involves the ques-
ton of Mr.. Ely's continued membership
in the union
Some weeks ago there was a shooting
scrape over the same matter. A couple
of printers attacked Ely and he shot
one of them in the shoulder, but the
wound was only a Slight one and Ely
was not prosecuted

FOLSOM'S FUTURE.
The Local Paper Looks for a Great

The Telegraph of Saturday has this
to say concerning the future Of its town:
"A better appreciation of the situation
as to the advantages of Folsom, and
more Of a spirit of unity on the part Of
her citizens in regard to her develop
ment are two Of the needs of the hour.
A united community can exercise tre-
mendous power in transferring a town
into a city, city into a metropolis, and
this development can be retarded for
years through the lack of unity and CO.
operation. At the present time Folsom
is in possession of advantages, both nat
ural and artificial, second to no other To-
cality in the State. and there is no
known reason why they should not be
utilized to their utmost capacity. Within
the past year numerous Improvements
and business ventures of a substantial
nature have been made and launched in
our midst, and as time rolls on others
of even greater dimensions will be pro-
mulgated and carried to successful ter
mination.

of the American Land and Lumber

Va :th better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle eefforts-pleasantef efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
iy removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts It is therefore
all important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
ard the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup Of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and 2 res most general satisfaction.
