THE TAYLOR BALDWIN MERCAN.
TILE CO., INC, GARRISON.

These are the best merchants In
Garrison and they set the pace. Per-
sonally agreeable and men of good
mercantile efficiency, they have
worked up patronage which shows
they are on the right track. A
stringent rule of their business is to
stock only the merchandise which
will give complete satisfaction, so
they never have any apologies or
explanations to make. Every dollar
you spend with them does its full
duty, and they are always on the
lookout for new ideas to increase
the effectiveness of their efforts and
cater more closely to their trade.
They also have the postofice and 1t

our people have firm faith in the
rectitude and up to date way of doing
business of these gentlemen. Mr..
Peterson has been in the county al
most quarter of a century and no
man has a better record either in
business or private life. The other
members of the company are also
gentlemen of high character and
solid worth who have a clear title
to every dollar they possess. These
are the men who reflect credit on
the mercantile life of a town.

NEWS FORECAST
FOR COMING WEEK

New York, Dec. 21.-To the eye
of the prophet nothing looms up as
important on the horizon of the
coming week as the coming of Santa
Claus and the annual festival which
marks his advent. While the cry of
hard times" has gone up over the
land, it is unlikely that 1t will af-

ance of the holiday spirit.
President Roosevelt and his fam
lily will spend the day quietly at
the White House. AS III the past,
the chief executive will lay aside
all his official cares and devote the
day unreservedly to his wife and
children. The usual distribution of
gifts Will take place in official cir
cles at the capital, and there will
be numerous social functions of a
n holiday nature during the week.
Most of the senators and represeh-
tatives have already left Washing
ton for their homes to spend the
holidays with their families, and by
the beginning OF the week the city

Despite the financial panic, the
poor of all large cities and towns OF
the country will be provided with
Christmas cheer. In New York.
while the contributions have not
been as large or as liberal as in the
past years and many poor are even
poorer than usual. it is unlikely
that any deserving person will be
allowed to go hungry, although the
dinners and baskets may be on a
less elaborate scale than usual. From
Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago. s..
Louis, San Francisco and other CEN
ters of population come reports of
preparations for great feasts for the
unfortunate. in all of which, as usual,
the Salvation army is taking an i'm
portant part.
While Europe is not unaffected by
the financial stringency, cables from
London, Paris, Berlin and other cap
itals tell OF the customary manifesta-
tions of the Christmas spirit, and
report little falling off in the vol
ume of the holiday trade. King Ed

DEPARTMENTS WAR
OVER GARDEN HOSE
FRACTION OF DIFFERENCE IN
CONTRACTORS BIDS 5
Council Puts Controversy Up<to Park
Commissioners, Who Name Special
Committee Of Three to n
Investigate \

War over garden hose has broken ouI
between contractors and city depart
ments.
Yesterday the park commissioners nj
their meeting named Commissioners Rusal
ton, Walden and Kern a committee to ty
to reach a recommendation as to whth
of dozen bids shall be accepted for he
city's hose supply. The park department
is the principal user of garden or small
sized hose, hence Its recommendatins
carry weight.
The trouble has largely narrowed down
to test of strength between the CO.
tinental company and James Hellman
Hellman had the contract for yeas
furnishing Dolphin hose, but last year tie
Continental people underbid and got TIE
contract. l.
The contract was awarded last Octobd,
but 1t was nearly June before the gooS
arrived from Massachusetts, the freigf
blockade having tied up shipments.
The sprinkling season had arrived an
the department was put to great ineon
venience by the lack of hose.
The Continental people furnished two
year guarantee to replace bad hose, bu
over this further differences arose. Com
plants began to come In, 1t is alleged
that the hose was wearing out fast. Th'
contractor said this was due to the mis-
use rather than of the poor quality of th'
hosel The firm stocked up heavily on tina
brand of hose, and cited this as further
reason why it should get the contract an
other year
Now Hellman has underbid the Con
tinental company by fraction of a cent
and yesterday he told the park commits
sioners that he was entitled to the con
tract. He also gave q two-year guar
antee.
Park department employees say they pre-
fer Hellmans hose and as the council
has shifted the responsibility 1t is likel,
that the Los Angeles man will get th'
contract.
Both Hellman and Agent Bennett of thu
Continental people addressed the parl
board yesterday.
