Hon. John Pickett.

In this issue Of The Progress will
be found the advertisement of Hon.
John Pickett, who has engaged in
the general commission business.
As will be seen by his card he will
give special attention to consign-
ments of cotton and western pro.
duce.
There is scarcely a better known
man in the State that Mr.. John
Pickett, whose most successful career
as State Treasurer, closed with the
the present administration. Truly a
man of the people, able, conscieu-
tious aud brave, he has endeared
himself to the masses everywhere,
and the great army Of toiers gener-
ally, by his manly work IN their in
terest aud chivalrous defense against
tue assaults Of scheming politicians
and exposure of plutocrats who
sought to extort from the wage
earners the fruits OF his hard earned
toll.
Successful as an official he will be
so as a business man, and those who
intrust HIM with their interests will
make no mistake. Promptness,
business dispatch, methodical and
careful, be will make it rebound to
the interest Of all who place their
business in his hands.
His office is on the corner OF
Crockett and Spring streets where he
will always be found during business
hours.
