Sunday, and details of the bloody work
which are slowly filtering out indicate

while the number of wounded will run

on the lips of all who attended the last
Legislative session a good word for the
Legislators from Union county and es-
pecially the member OF the upper house,
who is Beresford man. There were

he met every requirement and gained
a reputation of sincerity which materi-
ally :assisted any cause which he cham
pioned. Mr.. Frieberg was the only
senator that was member of both the
judiciary and Appropriations commit
tee-two of the heaviest places In the
senate. He was the author OF the capi-

to consider its action. The bill as
amended, which allowed new state
house to be constructed only from a

to the extent OF $3.50, 600 is the one that

THE CATALOGUE HOUSES AND THE HOME
MERCHANT

The catalogue house Is an uumixed
evil to any community that patronizes
it. It is a mistake TO suppose that these
houses can furnish the same grade and
quality OF goods cheaper than the local
dealers There is very good reason
why they cannot. In the. first place
nearly all the leading wholesale houses
refuse to sell their goods to the Gaia
logue houses, for the obvious reason
