CARD FROM MIR. FULTON.
Explains the Differences Between ia
our and Electric Light Company. b

To the Editor: Il has been very sell
dom in my life that l have felt called
upon % address the public, but mat
ter has been discussed by the public
for some time pas, based upon the
most wilful Misrepresentation. that 1
feel il my duty t. do simple justice 10
one OF our busiaeSs houses in this city.
Those who attended the Midway show
during our street fair and carnival just
closed no doub, remember the abuse
that was heapei upon the managers Of
the electric light plant, by the various
loud mou;hed "speelers." 1t was charg-
ell that he managers OF our electric
light plant refused to give the Jabour
aggregation electric light for the trap
eze, unless Jabour paid an eNtortionate
and unreasonable price therefor, and far
more than had ever been charged the
show people before.
Not one word Of this is true, II is who'll
ly and absolutely false. The charges
made the Jabour company by The elec-
tric light managers was exactly the
same charged our own people for light
ing booths in he fair, and no more.
The charges were less than that paid
by the Jabour show in the city Of Port
land.
Further, the agent Of Mr.. Jabour call
ell upon the electric light people and
stated that Jabour would require at
least GOO incan lsscent lights to run his
show. and that Jaoour would himself
pay for he same; this agent was in
formed that the electric light company
did not nave the necessary apparatus to
furnish this number Of lights, and it
would be necessary to go to an expense
of at least Sl0O In order 70 accommodate
the show people. This agent assured
Mr.. Trulllnger Of the electric light
plant that these lights would be requir-
ed and requested the apparatus. The
electric light people then, at an expense
Of over 800, procured the necessary

their statements, the astonishing thing
to me is that any sensible person would
believe any statement made by this
class Of people against business men
whose honesty and integrity is unques-
toned and who reside here, and have
done as much to build up our city as
any other individual in it.

NEW DIAMOND FIELDS DIsCoV-
Erred.

Advices reach us of new diamond
fields discovered in British Guinea.
Dealers consider these stones superior
to the South Africa diamonds and equal
in quality to those Of Brazil. Although
these new fields are not easy Of ac-
cess. ii is presumed that many adven-
turers will be attracted there. Things
of great value are always sought after.
That is the reason Hostetter's stomach
Rittars is always preferred by those
who need a reliable medicine for stom-
ach, liver, kidney and bowel disorders.
There is no medicine so good for dys-
pepsia, Indigestion, constipation. bilious
ness or mallria, fever and ague. It
also cures nervousness. insomnia, and
acts as a tonic to the run down system.

WHY WOODEN GOODS BA0.
Carelessness In the American Manufao-
turing Process Is the Cause.

Carelessness In the American Manufao-
turing Process Is the Cause.
Nearly all wooden goods. especially
those made in America. have the rep
utAtion Of bagging at the point Of
greatest strain when made into gar
ments and in some cases tailors make
1t point to call their customers at
tention to the fact that they will not
guarantee American-made goods from
bagging at the knees and elbows, at
the same time bringing forth a piece
OF goods that they claim to be i'm
ported, and which they will guarantee
against bagging for limited time In
some cases the goods are of foreign
manufacture, but as often they were
made in the United States. but by
claiming to have imported them bet
ter price can be obtained and bagging
Is the means used to induce the GUS
toner to pay the higher price. In some
instances the claim in just that certain
goods will become baggy when sub
jected to the strain of wearing, but it
Is unjust to claim that all American
woolens will bag There are various
reasons why American goods or any
other make will bag, the principal ones
being improper mixing Of stock, soft
twist and defects in weaving. In order
to cheaper the cost the goods Of wool
are mixed and If the operation is prop
erly performed the goods will not bag,
but II the various grades are not thor
oughly incorporated bagginess will re-
suit, for the cheaper grades have very
little telling properties, while the grade
that does possess felting properties is
intended to close up the fibers during
fulling, so that all danger Of bagging
will be removed. Thus If one grade
lacks felting properties, the second is
medium and the third is good, the
stock must be uniformly mixed or
some parts of the finished fabric will
be loose in texture, while other parts
will be we'll felted. On the cheaper
grades Of fabrics there is no pretense
Of claiming that they will not bag, ow-
ing not so much to errors in manufac-
turing as to the substitution Of inferior
stock. With the high grade Of goods
made for mems wear with a fair grade
of stock bagginess can be prevented
by careful attention to the various de-
tails of manufacturing. - Chicago
