Chester, April 22.?Mr. Joel Sitnril, the
contractor, began work last week on tko Presbyterian
church, and the workmen have torn
down nearly all the front of the building preparatory
to putting up the new front. While
the work is in progress, the congregation will
use the court house, not only for the regular
church services, but also for the sessions of
the Sunday-school.
Miss Fannie Moore and Miss Bessie Ilardin

LETTER FTSMTASTOXIA.
Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Gastonia, N. C., April 22.?The arrest of
Samuel Jeffries, of Galfnev City, for the murder
of Dr. J. A. White, of (Jnion county. S. C.,
twenty-six years ago, caused considerable talk
on our streets last week. Dr. White has three
sons and a daughter living in and around Gastonia.
They say they have always suspected
that he was the murderer, but until lately have
not had sufficient evidence to securo his arrest.
On last Friday night, as Mr. Sam Smith and
Col. Joseph McLean were returning from Mt.
Holly, they met a train, which so frightened
their horse that he ran the cart back into a cut
and against the running train. Mr^Smith was
thrown from the cart before tho tram struts it,
but Col. McLean was still in the cart a::d was
thrown violently agaist the bank and the cart
was completely broken to pieces. The wonder
is bow both of them, and the horse and cart,
could all have been in so narrow a space and
all escape with their lives. Mr. Smith had
one of his legs a little hurt and the Colonel
was slightly hurt in the breast, but they are
both able to be on the streets again. The horse
was not hurtat all. Since that "episode" Mr.
Smith has developed into so strong a predestinarian
that he believes whatever is to be, will
be, whether it ever happens or not.
Tom Craig came in last week with a drove of
fine horses, from St. Louis, and favors us daily
with exhibitions of his fine horsemanship.
Tom is certainly an expert horseman, and that
he has ever failed to induce a horse "to get a
move on him" has not yet been recorded,
Rev. J. M. Garrison, a student of the Duo
West Theological seminary, preached in the A.
R. P. church last night. He has been visiting
relatives in Mecklenburg, since presbytery,
and called on his way back to the seminary, to
see his brother, who is attending school here.
The spring communion service will begin in
the Associate Reformed church next Friday
night. Dr. Boyce will be assisted by Dr. Ross,
of Sharon, S. C.
Our tent is expected next week, and union
prayer-meeting will be held every night after
next Sunday, until the evangelist, Mr. Fife,
arrives.
A good many of our people will attend the
Sam Jones's meetings in Charlotte. bi?.et.
LETTER FROM UNION COUNTY.
Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Etta Jane, April 21.?Last Wednesday our
section was visited with a gentle rain that has
put the ground in splendid plow order and
given gardens and other vegetation a good start
to grow.
This community is somewhat excited over
the attempt now being made to unearth the
killing of Dr. Alexander White, which occurred
in this county on the night of the 24th of
August, 1865. Investigation will be made today
or to-morrow, ana then I will be ready to
. give my readers a fair and unbiased statemenr
of the results. It is poor medicine for society
for newspaper correspondents to take up such
.serious matters and launch out upon what they
think are the details, and in this way warp
public sentiment so as to defeat the ends of
justice, or subject innocent parties to great disadvantages.
Rev. R. P. Smith, preached at Salem yesterday
; the subject of his discourse being "Lot's
Choice," Genesis xiii, 11. Mr. Smith's short
ministration has made a marked improvement
on the people of this community?in that several
non-church going people are regular attendants
and speak well of him as a minister.
The grip still holds on with that tenacity
which the name indicates.
? Farmers have generally kept up with their
planting operations, and but little cotton is yet
*?' to plant. One noticeable feature is that the
ground has generally been well prepared?a
bright outlook for the agricultural interest.

LETTER FR03I LOWRYSVILLE. /
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Lowrysvtlle, April 22.?Several of our citizens
have recently been quite sick with the
grip. One young man, who claims to have
been attaoked with it several weeks ago, now
freely owns that he never had the grip before.
A negro woman on W. 0. Guy's place had a
leg broken below the knee last Thursday by a
tree falling on her. She was cutting the tree for
fire wood, and it became lodged. In attempting
to dislodge it, she was caught by it. Drs.
Anderson and Brawley rendered the necessary
surgical attention.
Mr. Jas. L. Guy was thrown by a mule last
Saturday, receiving very painful injuries, lie
is slowly improving. He has been kindly
treated by "the mule," for more than sixty
years. He is not usually so tardy in getting in
his mulish tricks.
Services were held here last Sunday night by
Rev. H. C. Clarksonofthe M. E. church. He
delivered a very appropriate sermon founded
on John xvii, 21: "That they all may be one ;
as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that
they also may be one in us: that the world
may believe thatthou hastsent me." w. o. ci.

having been made on Mr. Watt, who remonstrated
with him for what he had
done to the mule.
? E. D. Cason, who resided near Pendleton,
committed suicide, on the 13th instant,
by hanging himself on a tree. Cason was

suicide, Cason had been arrested on this
charge and would have been taken to
Georgia for trial.
? Turner, confined in the Richland jail
on the charge of murdering Finger, in
Spartanburg county, addressed a note to
Governor Richardson a few days ago, asking
to be transferred to the Spartanburg

raid the jail. The governor declines to
grant the request.

attorney Thos. Talbird, Esq., the case was
trans*" *ed to United States Commissioner

? Something of a sensation was created
last Thursday night at the little town of
Fountain Inn, in Greenville county, by
the release of a colored ...jsoner, named
Allan Foster, from the calaboose by a
crowd of people. Foster had a fight
Thursday afternoon with a negro named
Jim Perry and was badly cut. He was
arrested, but during the night a crowd,
among them Foster's employer, a white
man, came to town, broke into the calaboose
and took him away.
? Bill Scott, colored, one of the accomplices
in the murderof Joseph James, died
in Darlington county jail last Saturday
morning. When captured and confined
in jail Scott turned State's evidence, and
it was mainly on his testimony that Joseph
W.James and Lewis Williams were convicted.
Scott has been slowly wasting
away with consumption for some months,
and Saturday he was summoned to appear
before the Judge Eternal. He sent for
Sheriff Cole three days before he died and
said that he knew he was dying, and in
reply to the question, stated that "before
God his testimony in the case was the
truth." Joseph YV. James, white, and
Lewis Williams, colored, are now in jail
under sentence of death for the murder of
the father of James.
? The citizens of Lexington are yet dissatisfied
with the action of Governor Richardson
in respiting Wm. Leaphart, under
sentence of death in that county, and since
Leaphart was returned to Lexington jail a
second indignation meeting has been held,
mainly, it seems, to denounce the governor's
action in the premises. The principal
cause of complaint now is that the
contents of the affidavit on wfiich Judge
Wallace, who tried the case, recommended
the respite, and on which the governor acted.
The governor says that he does not pro,
pose to make the affidavit public until it isaccording
to his judgment, safe and proper
to do so. He does not consider it safe to
do so now. He says further that he shall
not be swerved from the course he con
ceives xne proper out; uy uuy luiiixuuatiuii

Clemson College.?A full meeting of
the board of trustees of the Clemson agricultural
college was held at Pendleton on
last Thursday, all but two of the members
being present. The board met to prepare
for beginning the actual work of establishing
the college, and was kept busy all day
Thursday and part of Friday. It was de
cided to begin the first work on the buildings
of the experiment station and labratory,
the intention being to have the station
iu operation before the other buildings are
completed. The executive committee was
instructed to make requisition on the
superintendent of the penitentiary for a
number of convicts to break ground for
buildings, cut wood for burning brick,
grade the necessary roads and clear the
grounds for the buildings. This work
will be begun as soon as possible.
The executive committee was instructed
to advertise for bids for one million brick,
to be made on the grounds, and sawing
the lumber needed for buildings on the
place. The committee will also investigate
the cost of doing this work under its own
direction.
Plans for the buildings were taken under
consideration, but not finally acted on,
and the adoption of by-laws and a curriculum
was postponed to the next meeting.
A committee was appointed to secure
information to guide the board in the selection
of a president for the college and a
director for the experiment station.
The meeting was earnest and thoroughly
harmonious and transacted a large
amount of business. It will meet again
on the 20th of May at Pendleton.
The Alliance in North Carolina.A
Raleigh dispatch "of Friday says: It is
I learned from the officers of the State farmers'
alliance that there have been issued
ninety-three charters to county alliances,
and two hundred and seven sub-alliances,
of which latter only thirty-two have been
returned. All the counties save Alleghany,
Dare and New Hanover, have county
organizations. Wake leads in the number
of sub-alliances, having fifty-seven, Chatham
coining next with fifty-two. The
gain in membership in the past year was
over 10,000. The State business agency of
the alliance is doing an immense work.
It has furnished two sub-alliances this,
season 12,000 tons of its special fertilizer,
and its sales of other supplies, mainly
provisions, average $40,000 per month.
The State business agent says that the
effect of the sale of special brands of fertilizers
made for the Alliance at a special
rate, has resulted in a decline of prices
charged for the brands, and he estimates
that this season alone the business agency
has saved the farmers over half a million
dollars in the matter of fertilizers alone.
Beginning of the Canvass.?R. A.
Meares, chairman of the meeting of invitation,
publishes the following notice in
last Saturday's Winnsboro News, announcing
the first public address of Capt. B. It.
Tillman in the approaching campaign :
Please announce, by arrangement of the
executive committee of the Farmer'3
movement, at the request of citizens of
Itidgeway and vicinity, that Capt. B. R.
Tillman will address the public at Ridgeway
on Saturday, 3rd of May, beginning
his canvass of the State. Major T. W.
Woodward, who had accepted an invitation
to join issues with Capt. Tillman,
has since published a card declining to
meet Tillman on the stump, giving as his
reason therefor that as a member of the
alliance he cannot properly lug that organization
in politics, and that on this occasion
he does not propose to be made a tool
of by any one who desires to ride into office,
"either upon the shoulders of Capt*
Tillman or on the back of the alliance."
A Card from Capt. Tillman.?To
the Public: Invitations to speak are beginning
to come to me. I desire to say
that all such letters should be addressed to
- - ? ?T T r....Ana ? n ctia ir.
U&pt. U. W OI1C11, uauicuo, kj. v., v.iw.4
man of the campaign committee.
The reasons are obvious. To canvas the
State thoroughly will require much travel,
and cannot well be done under three
months; and to save both expense and labor,
there must be some systematic arrangements.
Capt. Shell can also judge where and
when my services are most needed, and
arrange accordingly. If the State Democratic
committee would not call the State
convention till September, the canvass
could be deferred till the crop is almost
laid by, and I would prefer not to precipitate
a heated political campaign while all
are so busy. But I am ready to open the
ball whenever it suits the people and the
campaign committeethink best. Respectfully,
B. R. Tillman.

GRAND CASH SALE
Or One Hundred Cents on the Dollar !
1710R several years past a considerable
; amount of trade has been drawn away
from Yorkvillcto other points that rightly and
naturally belonged to Yorkville. The reasons
were obvious. Of late a groat deal of this trade
has returned to Yorkville, and to their surprise
many persons have found that Latimer's
goods were of much better quality than they
had been accustomed to get, and that they were
sold at a much lower price than goods of such
quality could usually be bought. Some observant
customers have tolcl^us that they could
buy CLOTHING, DRESS GOODS, MiDDiixERY
AND NOTIONS to ft much greater advantage
in Yorkvillo than in Charolotte, N. C.
We don't suppose anyone will doubt it, for
it is very plain why it is so.
Tlieabove has very little to do with what we
intended to say in this week's advertisement
when we first picked up our pen and began to
write. We have so much to do that itis almost
impossible to concentrate our mind on the
great scheme that we have mapped out for
OUR GRAND CASH SALE,
Which will commence to-morrow, THURSDAY,
APRIL 24TH AND CONTINUE
FOR THIRTY DAYS ONLY! Our purpose
in inaugrating this sale is to introduce the
quality of our goods into every home in York
county and bring about comparisons and
awaken the people to the realization of the fact
that QUALITY IS THE WATCHWORD and
that LATIMER S DRY GOODS STORE . IS
THE PLACE TO GET ONE HUNDRED
CENTS ON THE DOLLAR for your hard
earned money. In order to introduce these
goods in so many homes, it will necessarily be
at a great sacrifice to us, involving the loss of
many dollars, but it will bring uew faces from
abroad and familiarize them with the quality
of goods that wo handle and acquaint them
with our methods of handling goods. Don't
forget that
OUR GRAND CASH SALE
Will commence TO-MORROW, APRIL 24TH,
in the height of the season, and continue for
thirty days only. Every body should avail
themselves of this sale and secure bargains
that can only be obtained at LATIMER'S.
Wo don't want anyone to come to our store
expecting to get two dollars worth of goods
for 75 cents, for they shall be disappointed.
Rut wo want customers who know a bargain
when they see it. We expect to dispose of a
great number of bargains at a sacrifice, but the
goods thus sold will speak words of praise for
years to come and add wonderfully to our already
enviable reputation as dealers in reliable
merchandise, which in due course of time will
remunerate us for the pecuniary loss thus
sustained by
OUR GRAND GASH SALE.
Rargains are what the people want and bargains
are what they shall have. We mean to
sell those goods to whoever may want them;
wo propose to sell them to those who come for
them first and at a uniformly low price.
Think of Shallis at G per yard !
FINE GINGHAMS.
We believo we havo the finest lino of Ginghams
over brought to Yorkville, and we havo
them at any price that a customer might like to
pay, which argues very strongly that you can
oxpoct to secure full values in this line only
when you are dealing with reliable, experienced
merchants. We have been tola by
drummers who yisit every town and city in
the State, that we have the nicest, largest and
best lino of Ginghams that they have seen and
that our pricos are from 1 to 12i conts per yard
cheaper than any that they had seen.
IN WHITE GOODS
We have always been the acknowledged leaders,
and are now the great headquarters for a
vast territory adjacent to Yorkvitle. Remember
that you are to obtain bargains during the
NEXT THIRTY DAYS.
FINE SILK PARASOLS
Will be another attractive feature of our
GRAN I) CASH SALE. We have a large stock
of beauties, and there are few things that sisters,
wives and mothers would moro thorougly appreciate
than a NICE SILK PARASOL, as
a present from a brother, husband or father.
We handle every kind of goods known to the
Dry Goods, Millinery and Gent's Furnishing
Goods department, and we always guarantee
our goods to be worth the money asked for
them. Call and secure our bargains at once*.
STRAW HATS.
In this department we have excellod all former
efforts in buying Straw Hats, and consequently
we are in possession and have on exhibition
the nicest line of goods ever brought
to Yorkville, which are cheaper than ever
known beforo. Our Grand Cash Sale is now
going on. W. C. LATIMER.

of goods for the sake of a few cents in our

never misrepresenting anything to make sales.
We are fighting high prices not our good competitors.
DOBSON'S RACKET wants to sell
all the goods it can, and it certainly is getting
its full share and is selling more goods than
any house in Yorkville, in spite of all the
sharp competition that has worked so hard for
trade. Dobson's high-toned low-priced Racket
Store feels proud to-day of the large trade it
commands. Wonder how those poor heartless
fellows feel to-day who laughed at the Old
Chap's hard luck and said he could never do
any more good. The Old Chap hopes to-day
that they are not like the "runt pig, sucking

The MOST COMPLETE CRADLE in the

proved a complete success. Rest thine in existence
for
Wheat, Oats an?l Other Grains.
Has the following advantages ovor other
Cradles:
It has fourteen lingers, consequently saves
all the grain.
It is entirely wood, therefore lighter.
It is more durable and easier handled.
It is less difficult to repair a broken finger, as
they are made of 1-iuch round hickory rods.
It saves all the grain ; therefore it is the
cheapest.

INDIFFERENCE.
WE have made the statement in thocoluinns
of THE ENQUIIlElt on several occasions
that we sold goods at shorter profits than
a majority of the dealers in the same lines in
this and surrounding towns, and within the
[>ast few months a largo number of porsons
lave investigated our claim and found that we
not only sold goods cheaper than they had been
accustomed to buying them, but that our second
claim, namely, that we sold the very best
quality of goods, was also correct. Some people
who should investigate our claims have not
done so, and, of course, wo can't make them ;
but wo would again call their attention to our
claims, and if they should not find our claim
correct, why we will cheerfully acknowledge
that some one has got the inside track on us.
If you do not investigate, you aro to blame and
not us if you aro paying more for an inferior
quality of goods than you can get a first-class
articleat.
Call and get our prices on Plow Stocks, Plows,
Trace Chains, Ilcel-Screws, Crass Rods, Bolts
of all sizes, Leather Backhands, Shovols,
Spades, Dung or Hay Forks, Cow Chains, etc.
While we do not make a leader of these goods,
wo aro confident that if you get our prices wo
will sell you the goods wanted.

GENTS' FURNISHING GOODS.
Yorkvllle, N. .
"COME IN,"
"CET OUR PRICES,"
"SAVE MONEY !"
AS you pass up and down, in front of the
Adickos building, on the cornor of Main
and Congress streets, stop and look in at JOHN
MAY, JR. <fc CO'S NEW ANI) STYLISH
STOCK OP GENTS' FURNISHING GOODS.
Everybody is running over with words of admiration
and they can't be blamed for it. No
ono can see our storo?EVEN THE FRONT
WINDOW DISPLAYS?without coming to
the conclusion that Yorkville has a
REAL LIVE GITS' IMG STIEE.
We were ambitious to buy our Spring stock
on nTTnuincrio tn the taste of the nnrchasers
of Yorkville and of York county. From our
success, we are pursuaded to believe that we
have pleased the purchaser. We believe that
we can please alike the fastidious and the
plain in anything kept in a nice and stylish
Furnishing Store.
We started with a line of Clothing almost
complete, and each week there has been added
to this already large line of Clothing in
NEW STYLES AND NEW COLORS.
Our last bill was a superb line of PRINCE
ALBERTS and PRINCE ARTHURS. We
bave a Plain Blue and a Figured Blue. We
have a Plain Black and a Figured Black. We
have all sizes from 34 to 40. Such low prices,
too, were never heard of in Yorkville before.
A Fine PRINCE ALBERT COAT AND
VEST can be had at 823.00 and a fine PRINCE
ALBERT SUIT at ?30.00. We have
All Styles of Frock and Sack Coats.
Our line of ODD PANTS, both in fine and
cheap qualities, is complete. We can sell you
a pair nt pants anywhere from 75 cents to ?9.00.
"COME IN," "GET OUR PRICES" and
"SAVE MONEY." We claim, and
PUBLIC OPINION BACKS US,
That we have the nobbiest line of STRAW
HATS in the place, and we have the bill for
more. You can satisfy yourself by buying
from us. Any one can be pleased if he has
any regard for style. We have also a nice
line of LIGHT WEIGHT DERBIES. These
were made especially for the Spring trade.
We are glad to be able this week to advertise
a new and
Complete line of Dnnlap Hats.
The DUNLAP is one of the most popular
Hats brought to this or any other market.
Every one who has worn one will recommend
it. It is not only the most comfortable and
durable, but it is the most stylish. All of them
are made on the most stylish Spring Blocks.
COME IN AND LOOK AT THEM.
They look so nice and stylish that it is a pleasure
for you to look at them, and a pleasure for
us to show them. All kinds of Hats can be
shown you at our place. "COME IN," "GET
OUR PRICES," and "SAVE MONEY."
Our line of Shoes has been made doubly interesting
by the addition last week, of the
Celebrated Hess Shoes.
They have come and a sample of them can be
seen in the case in front of the store. Now
these Shoes have almost an universal reputation.
The very fact that they were made by N.
HESS & BRO., is a sufficient guarantee to the
quality of the goods. Another point of interest
is that you do not have to pay for tho repution
of their Shoes. They are sold at the same
price of less popular Shoos of the same quality.
We have a full line of their plain shoes for
?5.50 and ?0.00, and besides that we have a splendid
Patent Leather Shoe for ?5.50. In the case
in front of the store will be found, also, a sample
of all kinds of Shoes for Men, Women and
Children. Don't forget that
OUR THOMPSON SHOE
FOR THREE DOLLARS is a goods which
we can recommend as being a first-class article
and will do good service for the money.
A Nice Lot of Trnnks in Stock.

varying in size from 25 to 34 inches, and in
price from Four to Nine Dollars. They are

WE ARE HEADQUARTERS
For all kinds of Gents' Furnishing Goods. It
was our first aim to furnish Yorkvillo and
York county with a first-class Gents' Furnishing
store. We mean to make that department
still our care. All we ask is the sustenance of
the people.
Onr Dress Shirt Department.
We have just received another lot of those
nice Dress Shirts. They are beauties, and wo
can fit anybody. We carry a full stock of the
Anchor Brand Shirts with Cuffs and Collars
to match. We also have a nice stock of the
celebrated "Gold" Shirt. Our line of Negligee
Shirts is still as nice as the nicest and our underwear
is of the best material made. Ask
to see it before you buy.
IN CONCLUSION
We wish to say that we are prepared both for
the fine trade and the common, and we mean
what wesay when we affirm that we will make
it to your interest to examine our stock, for we
will positively not be undersold. When we say
that we are giving you a good article for a little
money, we believe what we say. If the
goods are not what we represent, we have been
cheated, and we know that such is not the case.
Remember these things, and whenever you
want anything in our lino, call on, yours for

All Kinds of Dry Goods at the Mercy

GREAT REDUCTION IN ALL LINES.
A Nice Shoe Tor Ladies in Lace or
Ilutton at One Dollar !
J^"OT by favor, but by merit alone, will we
maintain and increase our unrivaled reputation
as the most reliable, one-priced Dry
Goods establishment in South Carolina, we
having been among tho first establismenta in
the State to raise our voico against the old
order of things to the permanent benefit of all
classes or manKina wno nave always maue
Yorkville their Dry Goods market. True, this
class of goods could always he bought to a
better advantage in Yorkville than any of
her neighboring towns; but now the difference
is truly wonderful, and the NEW YORK
RACKET STORE, THE PIONEER ONEPRICED
STORE IS STILL THE GREAT
LEADER IN THIS VAST UNDERTAKING.
Many efforts have been made to stay our progress,
and impediments of mammoth proportions
have been strewn in our path ; but
all to no purpose, for as we reached them they
disappeared as "chaff before the winds." We
haye even encountered IMITATORS from all
sections of the county, and "imitation is the
sincerest flattery" as to our ability to accomplish
what we had Bet out to do.
Thus we are fighting against the credit system,
for money, for reputation, and for the people.
It is our prices and goods that crowd our store
with people from all sections, whilst other
people are sleeping over their rights and are
dreaming of ruin and disaster which will soon
over take them.
Our shelves are ladened with a tremendous
stock of Dress Goods, and in fact everything
that you would expect to find in a store like
ours, and at prices which are bound to tell.
In a few days we will be able to place on exhibition
a line of STRAW HATS that will
knock the hind sights off of anything that has
been brought to Yorkville. Come and see j
them and hear our prices.
Parasols in all colors, at from 25 cents up.
Umbrellas at from 45 cents up.
We are selling a Ladies' Shoe at $1, which
we believe would bring more than that at the
factory. They are worth more than we ask for
them and it is a mattor of considerable curiosity
to our customers to know how we sell such
a Shoe at so low a price. We are up to our
business and can furnish you these Shoes in
Lace or Button at ?1.00, cash.
Wo have a few Trimmed Hats for ladies that
we will sell so cheap that the customer will
think that our charges were only for wrapping
them up. They are bargains and you should
call quick and see them.
A complete line of Ladies' and Misses Corsets
is an attraction at our store. We have
them at from 25 cents up.
We have Children's Shoes at 25 cents per
pair. We have them at higher prices and in
many qualities.
Wo have in stock a handsome line of Ladies'
Slippers in all sizes and in all styles.

THE above illustration represents the CORBIN
COTTON AND CORN CULTIVATOR.
It hoes and hills from both sides of
rows at once, and thus prevents the breaking
down or covering of plants. The disks can be
readily reversed to throw soil away from
plants. The gangs vibrate, or may be locked
rigid or half rigid as desired. This machine
can be set to cut deep in center of rows and
shallow near the roots of plants. It will kill
more weeds and grass and pulverize the soil
better than any cultivator or harrow in the
world. It cannot be choked by weeds or trash.
The farmer who uses it will not have to lose
valuable time, and incur the expense of
having it sharpened, as he is compelled to
do with the ordinary harrow, plow or cultivator,
for the reason that the disks are made of
the very best steel and will neither bend,
break or crumble. The Cultivator will work
successfully on all kinds of soil. It can be
operated as successfully by a boy who is able
to drive two horses, as by a grown man.
Price, $25.

THE CAROLINA BUGGY 00.,
YORKVILLE, S. C.
TWO THINGS ARE NECESSARY. _
TWO things are necessary in order to do
a successful business in our line, and it is
our constant aim to meet these requirements,
and we think * s have succeeded. The first requirement
is to lave the kind of Vehicles that
the public want, and the second is to sell them
at BOTTOM PRICES. We rarely ever fail to
please in both these particulars. We always
try to keep on hand a large and varied stock,
consisting of CARRIAGES, PHAETONS, 8URRYS,
BUGGIES AND CARTS, and our object
in having these Vehicles is to meet the demands
of the public in our line. We now have on
hand a very fine selection of the Vehicles above
named, and should we be unable to please purchasers
with what we may have in stock, our
facilities for manufacturing are so complete
thatwecan turnout any style of Vehicle desired
ON VERY SHORT NOTICE.
We propose to sell Vehicles and lots of them,
and we propose to compete both in quality of
work, style and prices. We do not ask patronage
because we are running a "Home Enterprise."
Oh! no, we haye long since learned that
that kind of a plea is n? g?, and that in order to
do business, business methods must be used,
and thus compete with all others In the same
line.
Come and see us and talk Buggy to us. We
like to talk Buggy talk, and are confident we
can interest you.
We will now *ay a few words about WAGONS.
We don't manufacture the Wagons we
sell, but they are good Wagons just the same.
We know they are good, because they have been
tried by hundreds of farmers and others in this
section and pronounced to be the best. We sell
the "OLD HICKORY" and "TENNESSEE."
They are first-class Wagons, and at the same
time sell at a very reasonable figure. Don't
think of buying a Wagon until you see what
we can do for you, and if our prices are not as
low or lower than anybody's, we will cheerfully
submit to our competitors' making the sale.
Now, give us a showing.
REPAIRING.
All repair work entrusted to us will be done
promptly and in a proper manner. We solicit
this class of work and feel sure that we can give
satisfaction every time.
