Pedestrians gazed upon new delivery
wagon of local business firm yesterday that
brought mp the rear Of a minstrel parade.
The wagon is painted in yellow, upon which
the owner prides himself as being the origin
ator of the design. The color, yellow, is
significant of jealousy displayed towards a
business competitor after whose wagon this
one has been copied. Such may also he the
business conducted by this firm. A gorgeous
street display does not warrant quality of
goods or a reliable stock like that which is
being carried by the firm it is intended to
injure. Trusting the public will consider
the insinuation and its source | remain,
