Ihe Dollar ar Home.

The Mountain Echo has the right idea
of what the much-sought-after doIlar " i'll
do when it is spent in the locality IN
which 1t is earned. Just a little dollar,
on its mission sent, makes a lot of people
glad each time the coin is spent. You
pay it to the butcher for meat to give YOU
strength; he takes it to the grocer from
home it goes at length, some pretty bit of
cloth or lace his better half to buy, or
help her get her winter hat to make her
rival sigh. The dry goods man sends on
the com to pay his market bill. and
though the coin Is often spent, it stays a
dollar still, and every time tits spent at
home some act OF good is lone in boom
ing local industries. ere setting of the
sun. But if you take that shining coin
and break the local cham, the chances are
that from affair twill not return again. If
once it passes out of town, the butcher
and the baker, the dry goods man, the
carriageWright, The blacksmith, EVERYONE.
Will lose the chance to touch that coin
ere setting of the sun. Just keep the lit
tie coin at home, just keep 1t moving well
and every time it changes hands some
hody's goods twill sell. That single little
dollar has thu a wonderous power to
make somebody better a dozen times an
hour. 1t pays the bills and wards off ills
ne'er its power relaXes to s0othe the
doctor, buy the coal and pay for clothes
and taxes

Almost a Strike

Yesterday the announcement was
made to the Typographical force of the
APPEAL office that there would be 10
issue of the paper tomorrow in order to
celebrate the anniversary of Washing
tons birthday. There was a mild protest
against the order on the part of the
printers, who like work to such an ex-
tent that they are like the horse that
Dan Dennison drove, being reformed
with speed.'

dence to the comps and extracts from the

down. The proprietor made a short. but

informed them that Washington never
told a lie. they broke into loud a~pplause
and agreed 10 celebrate his birthday by
knocking of work. Only by this piece
Of delicate diplomacy was the strike
averted. There will be no paper issued
from this office tomorrow.

The Common Sense Harrow" to Be
Manufactured Here.
1t is with pleasure we note the
organization of the Common Sense
Harrow Co., a new company organ
| lied for the purpose of manufacturing
the Common Sense harrow which has
| been on exhibition in this city for the
| past month. The new firm is made
up of Messrs. j. H. Brown, inventor
and patentee, of Rural Retreat, Vir-
ginia, E. Roenius and J. B. Arpin of
Grand Rapids. They completed the
organization Wednesday evening by
electing the following officers:
President and Secretary-John B.
Arpin.
Vice PRESIDENT. III. Brown.
Treasurer-E. ROenius.
This company has already made a
contract with the Grand Rapids
Foundry Co. for the immediate manu-
| facture of 5000 of these harrows.
Agents will be put on the road in this
state to take orders for this most USE
| full andopractical machine. No man
ever saw the implement but what he
was impressed with its practicability
and usefulness and, if a farmer, gave
his order for one. Cheap, durable,
easily handled and a ready seller. We
are delighted to know that local CAPT.
tai was ready to take hold of this en-
terprise that will bring both labor and
money to this city and vicinity. To
start with $4,000 was put into the
treasury to meet present demands on
the first contract. Later the company
may do their own manufacturing but
for the present the Grand Rapids
Foundry Co. will manufacture the
first 5000 in connection with their
foundry business. This company
has the exclusive right in the state of
Wisconsin for operation, with an
option upon the entire northwest.
May the new industry grow in mag
nitIde and become one of the largest
manufacturing plants in the state is
the sincere wish of the REPORTER.
