It is rumored that there is a proba-
bility Of the town council dlscarclng
the use Of arc lights. and go back to
the Kitson lamp. We hope such step
will not be taken. In our opinion Man,
ming has as good electric light system
as any town or city in the State. In
fact, we know OF no town that has as
GOOD: to return to the lamp system
would be taking q backward step and
we hope there is no grouoo for the
rumor.
We direct the attention OF our read
ers to the advertisement Of the Sum-
merton Mercantile Co. This concern
carries an immense stock and with tt-at
progressive spirit which has prompted
the members of the concern, it proposes
to offer inducements to unload as much
of their fall and winter stock as they
can, before these goods become unseas-
enable. Read the advertisement and
then compare the prices with those OF
other towns.
