Mr.. Consumer:

You can see by the foregoing that it is the man
or set of men that buy in large quantities
that can get the farmers corn 1t is the man
who can use the greatest number of cattle and
and pay the cash for them, that can get the
ranchmans cattle. 1t is the man that can use
the largest number of wagons that can buy them
the cheapest, and it is the man who can give
employment to the laborer for the longest
period that can secure his services; and so you
will find it, not only in the lines we have men
toned, but in alLlines. So it is when our six
teen buyers go to the eastern markets. The
ink is no more than dry on the hotel registers
before they are beseiged by manufacturers. job
bers, etc. Why is this1 Simply because they
all know in what large quantities the Graham
Combination buy and also that they pay SPOT
CASH for same, and they are all anxious to
secure their orders and make them such prices
as no ONE small merchant could possibly get
Just think of it! The Graham Combination
purchased for their Spring stock of 1893 over
One Million Dollars worth of goods

nrynn,s Grent speech.

New York Journal.
Nj. Brynns Labor Day speech at Chit
cego yesterday will furnish ample ma
terai for thought during the next two
months. Here is one text from 1t:
Man ls MOI satisfied with mere physi-
cal existence, neither will he be content
unless all avenues OF advancement are
open to him"
iLa. IS al answer to the Full Dinner
Pail" or Pig Philosophy argument If
The trough Is full the pig is happy and
content. lie does no; worry about the
fact that th4 butcher da sharpening tn,
knife ior his throat. Sufficient to the
cay Is the swill thereof. But the Amerl-
can workman is made OF different stun.
lie demands something more than sand
wlch and a quarter OF dried apple pie
in tin pale. lie demands the nights and
the oppo. Junities OF man. He demands
a fair staft in the race of life for MS
children. He demands the power to stand
erect ana say and do what seems to him
good, instead OF Bringing to the lord of
his bread and butter.
Mr. Bryan is a master of the logical
dilemma Here is one upon which he
neatly impales the advocates of govern
ment by Injunction
The thing forbidden by an injunction
would. without the injunction, be either
legal or illegal. If 1t would be legal, the
judge usurps the function Of the leglsla-
ture wnen he forbids it. II 1t would De
Illegal the injunction of the court is I'M
necessary, tor any one who violates the
law can, upon conviction. be made tc
suffer the penalties prescribed for such
violation"
Morklugmen often wonder why they nnd
/ 1t so hard TO accomplishe anything in poll
/ tics. They elect maiorities in legislative
bodies, only TO find themselves Betrayed
Mr. Bryan points out the remedy:
! Direct legislation brings the government
| closer TO the voter. There is more virtue
In the people than ever finds expression
through their representatives. To hols
that representative can act for the PEG.
pie better than they can act for them
selves is TO assert that he is as much In
terested In the people as they are in th>rr
selves and that his wisdom Is grcatel
than the combined wisdom Of mai orit.

SELLS Z. Z. STOCK.
Ofters OF 26 Cents on the 81 Ac-
copted.

At irregular meeting held Tuesday
evening the village council accepted
the offer Of 25 cents on the dollar for
the $7LM Of G. r. I F. & N. w rail-
rosd bonds held by the village Of
Luyerne. The action was unani-
nous: The question Of the disposal
ofzthe bonds had been thoroughly
discussed in the Herald and notice
published in this papeyxl last week re
qlestedthat any person opposed to
the sale Of the certificates Of stock at
the price offered appear before the
council and state his objections. No
one appeared for that purpose and
members Of the council therefore
fairly took it for granted that the
pr position was entirely satisfactory
to the. citizens. Members of the
council had discussed the proposition
with business men and other citizens
and With few exceptions the advice
was that the bonds be sold. The
amount of money derived from the
sale ofthe certificates, which have a
face value Of s., 500, is $l,s57 which
amount will be paid by Col. E. B.
Soper, the purchaser, Immediately.
The village bonds issued for these
certificates of stock will be due in
