The Old Hardware Store.

Let the old men, if their memo
ries 90 back to 1860. recall the old
hardware store, and they will recall
that on the shelves % per cent came
from England and 3 per cent we're
produced in the United States. Let
-. go into the hardware store Of
1892 and they will find that upon
the shelves of that hardware mer-
chant 5 per cent is from abroad, 30
per cent is made at home by Amer
lean werkingmen. Yes, made in
American shops by American work
ingmen from American raw material.

And yet enc half of the Ameri-

The City Republican Ticket.

The Republican nominees for
councilman for the various wards
and for the board Of education will
be voted for before our next issue.
In regard to the character of the
men who have been named by the
Republicans as their candidates, it is
hardly necessary to speak, as they
are all well known in this com.
munity.
The candidate for councilman in
the Fourth ward, DR.. Joseph p.
Perth, has been one of the most
efficient members who has ever occu.
pied a seat in the council. He is
an untiring worker and accomplishes
good results. BY his work he is
best known, and he should be re-
turned by "A large majority. Mr..
Albert kroeger is n good man, but
he will never devote the time to the
duties of the office that DIR. Forth
will. Besides, Mr.. kroeger has no
desire to lee a councilman, was not a
candidate. and was forced to make
the race. We think, if questioned,
he will himself say the Fourth ward
could not have Il more faithful rep.
reseutatiye than DIR. Joseph P.
Perth.
Mr.. Frank T. Tirrell comes from
Fairview, and so does Mr. McClung,
and so territory will cut no figure.
Mr. lrrell will make a faithful
councilman. and although he is in a
Democratic ward, he will make a
strong race.
John 4. Steininger and Henry
Wagner will no doubt be elected in
tho Second ward, and Mr.. Hoefer'.
