STRAUSS IN
NEW YORK! !
"DELMONICo."
New York City, Sep. 2.

New York City, Sep. 2.
To My Friends in York 1
suppose that some of you know
that I am here. Although my ar
rival was not heralded with as
much pomp, fuss and feathers as
was the arrival of Mr.. Bryan, l
am here just the same.
I wouldn't have you to think
that I am stopping at this little
side street restaurant, named in
the first line of this letter. l
just came around here on the
pretext of writing a letter so that
l might see the ''keeper" feed
the animals, and law me, he sure
feeds them Some of them take
as much feeding as a we'll devel-
oped mud mill ! Any when they
have finished, whip out a $50
bill to pay for their meal, ask
for no change, and as they walk
out cuss the south and west for
wanting only money enough to
buy a soup bone I!
But friends, this is not what
l came to New York for. I came
to buy bargains in Dress Goods,
Clothing, Shoes, Neckware, Ho-
siery, etc., and these fellows up
here have seen that 81 got the
boodle," and they are just trying
to sell me everything they've got
at IS cents on the dollar !! They
say if I'll take all they have,
they won't touch the other fel-
lows at all. They say that they
want to convert their goods into
cash before the election, for then
there will be a P-A-N-N-I-C-K
A AP-A-N-N-I-C-Kl says 1, whats
that? Can't we have it right now, what's
the use in waiting until after the elec-
ton ?"
Oh you see this fellow, Will Bryan, a
Nebraskan upstart, came in town and
he has fairly turned the town over, and
the state too for that matter, and he has
put the working people to talking the
money and financial question, and in con-
sequence thereof business has become
unsettled and prices on goods just bought
and put in this stock, have declined so
per cent!
swell, my friend, that is just whst I
came to New York for-bargains Not
to talk politics and If you have any new
goods that have declined so per cent. that
will suit my customers, trot 'em out and
I will sure stop the decline on some of
them. It's what money buys that want,
and you tell your troubles to the police.
