MERCHANTS.

h1oW 1ndy nelp III OOOStlnS oiSoSS is question that should interest every member of this community Be cause a person is not a merchant or engaged in some large enterprise is no good reason for belief that there is nothing to do along the line of da- vancemeut. The merchant is inter
 ested in the city's growth to the ex- tent of investing in a stock of goods and it Is but fair to presume that when this city was chosen as place afor his. investment. it was with ap idea that the future development would warrant an expansion and the retail establishment assuming the DO siiion of wholesale and jobbing house. It is the duty of the citizen ship of every city to render every as sistance in their power to the mer
 chant who appreciates the home trade. Every nietehant has his rent to pay, his taxes to pay, his clerk hire and many other items, all of which goes to the betterment of the town in some way Every avenue of trade receives
 a benefit because of the establish ment of that merchant in our midst. If any public enterprise or entertain ment is offered, 1t is the home mer- chant who is expected to assist in a
 material way; if any civic improve ment is proposed. it is the home mer- chant who is expected to do his share and right royalty is it done, he is ex
 pected to show his patriotism on ey- cry occasion and 10 him every good citizen looks for an advancement in citizenship. Every dollar expended with him is dollar expended for Bisbee, every d2llar expepded Vith him is just that much towards a greater Bisbee- and tine betterment of the entire community Can as much be said oeta purchase made through a mail order house7 Do you know Of any interest such house has in the welfare of Bisbee? Do they assist in lessening the taxes of our city or in helping to conclusion aRy project that may be for the city's best inter
 ssts? Can you tell of an instance in
 which Tears Sawbuck & Co. have ever given dollar towards a charit- able or benevolent object in BiSbee2 Do you believe they are anxious to see this city grow and our retail stores blossom out to be wholesale or jobbing houses? If you cannot answer these questions in the affirmative, stop and think if yoa are in any WAY aiding and abetting Tears Sawbuck < Co. to hinder the home merchants frem Improving his business by en- Iargement and otherwise. T1se city n,ast be maintained. taxes nHst be levied and collected. but the outside house cares little for local require, ments while the nan whose invest n,ents are right in our midst must help to bearrthe burden It is qUes- tion for local patriotism to assert it- self and 'spass up the mail order house. Here you have an opportunity to exan1ine everything you buy before the order and yOu must take their word for what you get If you need assistance it is to the local, merchant you apply. no4 to tbe foreign house and in ordy that your local house may be in condition to help when it is needed, It is Che duty of every loyal citizen to consider before placing an order with any mai order touse. Pat rcnize your horae merchant. make him feel that you appreciate his com ing anoag you. sreak kindly word for him to your neighbor and friend and keep our mopes at home where t viii ac as rbe most good. In this say esery citizen 'cae besp to boost BIsbee can boost for as greater E D.stee. bat t .s a. tc < ali of tho lime and on the part of every citizen 1t is paid fop the mai; order hoass' requires you to seni the cash via ~bieh scc0mplIshes such things.
