its heart touching tenderness.
Lois Louise Davidson, the pianiste,
divided honorS with Skovgaard, and
both we're encored on every number.
She has rare merit and is a master of
the keyboard.
Eleonora Olson, a splendid singer
with a sweet and a powerful voice
captured the audience with her folk
songs. and the concert as a whole was
the best ever given in Canton. 1t

DO Our Farmers Want Il Home
Cream ery?

Heckmaster & Reynolds are in
shape to put in a creamery and do
business, and want the farmers to call
on them as they have a good PROPOSE
tion to offer, a proposition that means
good money to all of them. If our
farmers want a steady high price for
their cream the entire year now is the
time to secure it.. Make no arrange
ments with anybody for the sale of
your cream this season until you see
Heckmaster & Reynolds and learn
their plans, and besides they never
were in such good shape to handle
your cream and eggs as at the pres
ent time. Call and see them when in
town. Heckmaster & Reynolds have
made Canton a good poultry market,
always paying a higher price than out
siders, and they will make Canton a
first class cream market.
1t is important that farmers should
call on them.

Zinc Ore Importations.

The board of general appraisers at

decision reversing the ruling of the
treasury department imposing duties
upon the Importation of certain forms
of zinc ores, Under date of Feb. 8,
John Francis Strauss of New York,
one of the attorneys for the govern
ment, writes Hon. Calvert Spensley of
this city as follows:
Dear Sir: Answering your favor OF the 9th
inst, beg to enclose herewith c >py OF the
decision OF the Board OF General Appraisers
in the zinc ore ses. | regret to say that the
decision is adverse in general. We succeed
ed however completely in breaking down
he commercial understanding which the
importers tiled to make out, and this is one Of
the important foundation for the future liti-
my opinion. is a weak one and invites attack.
The Treasury Department will appeal the
cases to court and final decision will prob
ably not be reached for two or three years
In the mean time the duty of 20 per cent
will continue to be assessed so that the zinc
mina owners are assured OF protection"
The ruling in question, and which
has been reversed, it was said was
secured from the department upon the
solicitation of Congressman Babcock.
