sundays Gainesville HeSperian
..rs. June 18 was memorable
asy in the mercantile history OF
GAINESVILLE, and a day not soon to
h. forgotten by Messrs. Sig Simon
: Rro 1t was the day on which
they began business in Gainesville,
and their opening last night was
sOre enough event. and is worthy
II more than passing notice.
THE building is one of the
hsndsomest in the city, and the
n,onrietors have displayed enter
nrise and good taste in the Orna-
msutation. When the lights were
,urned on last night the show win
dows and handsome interior were
hesutiful to look upon. The large
force of clerks had been working
hobiud closed doors for several
days and the results were to be
seen last night in the artistic dis
nlay of all manner OF seasOnable
snparel for men, women and chill
drep. The fixtures, show cases
and furniture are neat and bright.
Special provision has been made
70, the comfort and convenience of
customers, and in every particular
;he establishment is a credit to the
proprietors and to Gainesville.
In response to invitations al
most the entire city turned out last
night to inspect the new store and
to receive as souvenir of the Oc
casion pretty buttonhOle bouquet.
Gainesville welcomes the new
firm.
Mr.. Sig Simon came down
from ArdmOre last night and was
accompanied by the following
party: Col. c. e.. Jones (late Of
Troy, Pike county. Alabama), T
F. Seay, Simmer Boyd, Charley
Bennett, II. H. Beyars, Miss Ella
Pnlliam, Miss Ida Glover, Mss c
Chastain and Miss Olive McC latch
ey.'
The above is but consistent will
the usual push and vim of the en-
terprising firm of Sig Simon 4
Bro. The volume of busines
transacted by them in ArdmOre
and the universal esteem lin whicl
the firm name is held by our peO
pie speaks stronger than words tn
merits of such dealers.
This venture at Gainesville mus
not be looked upon as manifesto
ton of an intention of leavin
ArdmOre. On the contrary
shows the everlasting push fO
business, to conquer trade in Othe
fields. The most binding assul
anee, however, that they will RI
main in Ardmore is in the recer
purchase of the Charles DuriO an
George Holder lots on the sOut
side of Main street, lots now OccI
pied by number of small wOOde
buildings. These are all to
torn away, and a substantial tw'
story building of brick or stOn'
covering the entire lot, will
erected and occupied by them
soon as completed. This is Il
spirit OF ArdmOre's business me
which has given her first rank
the Territory, and of such peOp
We are proud.

The uncertainty in regart to
the settlement of difficulties be-
tween the United States and Spain
has resulted in the detaining Of
some 40 Spanish freight vessels
at Liverpool. These vessels, but
for this fact, would he engaged in
carrying our cotton abroad. AS
a consequence of the detention of
these vessels and the uncertainty
of the successful termination of
peace negotiations at Paris, the
ocean freight rates have been
materially advanced. These freight
ers could carry 200, 900 bales of
Southern cotton abroad, were
they IN active service. Thus the
farmer has to take lower pric es
for his cotton, and feels the war
in a practical way long after the
actual fighting has ceased. The
jingoes got the glory out of the
war, but the farmer Is paying the
freight and selling his cotton
lower than at any time since 1860.
