FRIDAY. SEPT. 2, 1893
A MISUNDERSTANDING
The Marietta Hardware Company
Changes Hands,

A deal was closed Thursday where
by Mr.. G. S. Benedict, formerly of
Tunnel, now of Pueblo Col, who has
been in this county visiting relatives,
came into possession of the Marietta
Hardware Co., corner of Gilman and
Maple streets, West Side. He becomes
sole owner and takes possession Fri
day morning.
Mr.. Benedict left this county about
three years ago and located in Pueb-
10, where he has been connected with
the Pueblo Ice Co. He recently re-
turned on visit to his parents with
the expectation of returning to the
west, but finding Marietta a good bus
mess location, has given up his busi-
ness in Pueblo and will make Marietta
his home.
Mr.. Benedict is hustling young
man of sterling qualities and we pre-
dict for him bright future. There
will be no change in the name, but
will go on as heretofore, the Marietta
Hardware Co.

Not So Green.

The M town bound cable car appar
emily was in the hands of a green mo-
torman. At least that was the way the
crowd of passengers accepted it when,
after each stop, it started up again with
a violent jerk, which threw big men
around like skittles. Straps were of nc
value.

on and made his way to about the mid
die of the car. He lost something of hi.

but he said nothing Next a big man
made a parabolic swing, landed and
nearly knocked him through the win.
dow Then the face of the little man
grew very red. He pushed his way tc
the front door and. shaking his finger
in the motorman 8 surly visage, threat
ened to throw him of the car and run
the thing himself. The motorman
"sassed" back, but the excited little
passenger talked fast and dared him &c
do it again. Then he shut the door and
waited, and every one held his breath
when the bell rang.
But the fight did not come off. The
car started as gently as molasses. and
never once from Prince street where
that one little man stood on his rights
up to Fiftieth street did the car start In
any but the smoothest way.

reason why the party custom of giving a
second term to a faithful servant should
not apply to him.
Mr.. Hamilton will be present at the
convention, and will make an address

THE 'copperhead" press of '6l-'65 was
the most Justly and cordially hated in
stitution of the North. 1t delighted to
rail at the president and the commanders
of the armies. 1t found fault most as
siduously, but never gave its voice to the
support of the government in its extrem-
ity. 1t was traitorous in tone, if not in
act. America has few journals to-day
that are actuated by the "copperhead''
spirit, and they will gointo history, if re-
membered at all, as Infamous obstruc-
tionists. Van Buren, county has one such
newspaper. Last week it said the pat
riotism of Mckinley was a hoax, and
then jeered at the patriotism of the
American people themselves. We would
suggest that the driveler who writes such
rot would do well to leave this country
for one where he does not consider pat
riotism dead, or else he offer his patriotic
self as president in Mr.. McKinley's stead.
1t is surprising that intelligent people
can stomach man or newspaper that
cannot muster patriotism enough to rise
above such nauseating, picay unish parti-
sanship as is shown in this instance.
