The Cash system

AS will be seen from a "notice"
in this issue, MIR. j. L. Hopkins has
joined the Increasing number of mer-
caants VINO will her reafter sell goods
strictly for cash. He will mark his
goods down 10 a cash price and
keep no books. Mr.. Hopkins, after
years CT experience in the mercan-
tile business land he has been sue.
cessfuD is now convinced that the
credit system is all wrong and an
evil, both to buyer and seller. Here
after, when Saturday night comes
lie will have either the goods on his
shelves or the money for them in
his drawer. Some time ago j. b.
Hankins & Co, started out on this
plan. They are doing successful
business of something like twelve
thousand dollars year perhaps, and
have no book keeper and no books.
They have the pleasure and satisfac-
ton of handling the money instead
of making notes and drawing off
large accounts. After Hankins &
Co., came Gose & Groseclose. MIR.
Gose was in town few days ago
and speaking of the matter said /:
ave are entirely satisfied with the
results, and nothing could induce
US to go back TO the old system. We
not only keep out of trouble our
selves, but keep other people out of
trouble as well. We keep no books
and can tell at the end of each day
exactly how we stand" This is the
experience of these and other good
business men who have tried the
plan everywhere.
1t was said of certain firm that
they had done more business and
made less money in ten years than
any other firm in the country. They
are long credit merchants and every
few years have to go out of business
in order to collect up. 1t will mark
new era of prosperity in our coun-
try when the cash system is adopted
by all our merchants. Debt is what
Sherman said war is, and the mer
chant who encourages it is not ac-
comodating the people, but infict-
ing upon them serious evil.

The Correct View.
another

Mr.. G. H. Peery, a busy merchant
and farmer of Kelly, dropped into our
office the other day and laid down
a two-dollar bill, and said: "Give
me credit for this knew it mus t
cost something to run a newspaper,
just the same as any other business,
and you ought to have your money" !"
Now, that is just the view to take of
1t, and yet there are hundreds of our
readers who have not paid Us cent
since we have been In the business.
Some OF them we meet quite often
and they never say q word about
payingus If they owed US u large
amount they would pay it, but un.
fortunately for US, they think the
amount too small to bother about.
Dear friend, remember there are a t
least five hundred good men in
Tazewell, who owe us small sums
ranging from one to two and a half
dollars, which we need badly. If
you are one of the FIVE hundred
please follow the good example of
