The Press and Banner. BY HUGH WILSON. Wednesday, Sept. 21, 1892 WE MUST WORK ON, - ? Th? I'nl Ollicrs Have Keen Divided Out. mill Von mill I Didn't <>?>t One ? \? "I'ree" or "I'nlimited" Silver l'.?r the (irrnl Mil** of J"*? We are Doomed to Kuril Our I,iv iiiij h.v llio Sweiii of our Brow. The polit icians have won I lie fat offices and the places of honor, but, my friend, you and I must work on. and make our living in ihe same old way?by hard work and economy. As the "lortv acres and a mule" never materuiized, so our dreams of government aid will never come. The sub-treasuries must be < 11 our own farms, in our own offices, or in o ir own shops?and their supply of the needed cash must depend upon our own individual exertions. The free and unlimited coitinge of silver will do neither you nor me any good, if we have nothing to give in exchange lor it. We Jnust have something to sell before we can get imyof the "free" or "unlimited" dollars. It ri.ju't mean that the money is to be given ' tree" ot anything In exchange. If we can g?ft. something to sell we can now get cart loads, or even car loads, not of silver, but ol f: -Id. They have stacks of' paper money in Washington to give out to people who have ( imeihing to sell?bonds, lor Instance. As we have no more elections for a time, ami as all the politicians have either been provided for or disappointed, we will now Jiave a season in wnien we can iook aueruur own individual interests. The (act Is, we attach too much importance to the choice of officers. While it is a matter of the greatest concern to the rival candidates as to which shall get the offices it is ol very little matter to the citizen, which set (jets in. Neither will help the man who looks to the farm, the shoo, or the store for a living. THE BANNER OF PEACE AND LOVE. The Happy .Marriage of Miss McCord an?l Mr. Hot Is. On the afternoon of September the Mth, 1S92. friends aud relatives assembled at the home ol Mr. John A. McCord to attend the marriage of his daughter, Miss Jennie, to Mr. T. H. Botts.

Last of all came the lovely bride, and hand pome groom. in a ocauiuui ana loucnmt: ceremony, Kev. Boyd, united their lives for weal or woe, "until death do them part." May their lives be useful and happy and may heaven wave over them the banuer or peace and love. DEATH OF MRS. ATKINS. A CJood Woman IIkm Gone to Her KeWHlil.

DO YOUR TRADING AT HOME. it i!* <* i ?i i? Aunrnu iui lauipun wliit li can be Hought in your Own Town. It isa feet that goods are sold atretnll In the small towns where rents are cheap, much lower than the same goods can be sold In the cities where rents and taxes, and living generally, are much higher. It is also true that your own home merchant Is more likely to sell you the right goods than the city merchant. The home merchant knows your need or want, and. it is to his interest to treat you squarely. The city merchant is a stranger who never expects to see you again, and may be less careful to sell you the right goods. Not one buyer in ten is a judge of goods and he must trust the merchant with whom he trades, no matter whether he is a friend or a stranger. The idea that a lew dollars may tie saved by ordering groceries is fallacious. The list price of some standard articlo may be a shade less, Din wiicii me ireigni anu urayage aie uiKcn into consideration, you can do just as well ut home? If you pay the cash. Kvery city newspaper urges tiio citizens to patronize home enterprises. Why should not the country people patronize their own home markets? Kon't run up your credit account until It Is near the danger Hue, and then send oil' your cash for goods. 15uy at home, where you see what you buy, and where you have a known dealer's guarantee. Stick to your home merchant, and you will do better for yourself than in sending oil' to strangers.
