And yet some clothina; men will exhanst enough wind for a well or

you think that they possess ALL the business qualifications in their
line, and that others must know nothing 'at all, because they know
it all. In- a few years they claim to have amassed such a fortune by
selling you clothing "way below cost" that they can dictate .to the
jobber and ."snuff out" the competitor; and yet when you look over
the Tax Duplicate you will find that some of these "Big Stock" and
"know it all" fellows, not a thousand miles from the Cheese City, who
"have more goods than all the other oiothing houses in the county"
will actually swear that they haven't one-third as much as some of
their modest competitors. ,v- V
How do you like it, Mr. Farmer you nho pay tax on 160 rods
of each acre of land youjpossess txAave a "Big Windy" tell you
that his brain is so big and his stock SO large that he can "knock
out" everything, and then when it comies to sharing the public burden
have him swear that his stock in trade is' not one-third as valuable as
that of an ignorant competitor? Where does the "wonderful suc
cess" of misrepresenting come in, in the advertisement or the affida
vit made to the assessor? Let us advertise facts, and not injure the
reputation of an honorable business by windy misrepresentations.

To-morrow a meeting of the cabinet will ,

who Is to succeed Corporal Tanner as 1
Commieaoner of pensions. '
The President already haa his message '
to Congress sketched In outline. The '
details will of course require many con
sultnlions with the members of his
cabinet and the party leaders. , ;
Representative Bcb. Buttcrworth, the
popular son of Ohio, who baa just re- :
turned from a trip to Europe, was given
s welcome home to-night that must have !
warmed his big heart to its Innermost parts.
At least three thousand people took part
in the reception which was held In the
old skating rink. Hon. S. 8. bhellabarger ,
delivered the address of welcome and a
number of other gentlemen, Including
Senator Sherman, made short speeches.
The reply of Mr. Butterworth was a gem
In Its way, and could have been made by

take the stump in Ohio for Governor
Forsker in a lew days. . The reception
was held under the auspices ot the Ohio

the Ohio veterans. ,
Almost a quorum of the Senate bas been
In Washington during this week. The
majority of the Senators were only here
for a day or two, ns they return from
their summer vacation,' and had little to
say on political matters. At least a dozen

Keystone State knocked them out In one,

Glorions "Brewster."
One of the features of the couuty fair
which attracted attention, and commanded
the admiration of the large crowd present
Saturday afternoon, was the exhibition
trot by "Brewster," the handsome stallion
owned by Finch, Lord & Nelson, of this
city. "Brewster" is a great favorite, and
Justly so, of all who know him. He is an
ideal animal a beauty in every sense ol .'
the word and possessing qualities which
place him in the front rank of the most
famous horses In the west In the exhi
bition trot Saturday a fine performance
was anticipated, and when the beautiful .
animal came upon the track his appearance
was the signal for applause from his many
admirers. "Brewster" seemed to under-...
stand what was expected of him for never
before did he move with a prouder step.
He was driven by Mr. Tbos. Drew, and
without any apparent effort he trotted a ,
half mile in 113, (a 2:81 gait,) a quarter
lu thlrly-five seconds, (a 2:20 gait,) and
came down the home stretch at a 2:10 gait. ,
This remarkable feat astonished all who
witnessed it and none were more greatly
surprised thin the horsemen aronnd the

fine exhibition, eta not prepared for any.
