" Gontroller of New York, being in
need of a million an a half, recently advertised for proposals: for
a loan'at 344 per cent. On opening the bids six times the-amount
was bid for at premiums ranging
from 134 to 2144 per cent. What
s is the use of tatting about hard
* times with such a showing.
CALIFORNIANS visiting the “Sunny South,” attending the Worla’s.

needs totravel in order to appreciate the advantages which this
State affords.

In New York the most disgraceful scenes occurred at Owen
__Geoghegan’s_ funeral, as well as
on the way toand from the cemetery. There was—a-struggle for
the chief mournership, and two

and several times both came near
being smashed.
C.B. Farwell, of Chicago, in an
interview, said he had been doing
all he could to unite the Republican members of the Illinois State
Legislature to vote for \Logan. for

of election.
Lr Quona left New York on Saturday night with $3,000 which he

The San fT
FORWARD, MARCH!
In beginning the year 1885, we desire to briefly
review the record of the year just ended ‘and point
out some of the things that have so far contributed
Our
constant aimmhas been to offer such inducements to
to thée~popularity and success of our store.the buying public-that they. find it to their own: interest to trade with us;and the large patronage we
‘have been favored with shows that our efforts have
not been thrown away. The four-pillars upon which
we have built our business are
J ustice,
Imp artiality,
One Price,
Absolute Satisfaction.
We have endeavored to keep at all times not only
the largest and most complete assortment: of Dry
;Goods, Fancy Goods and Millinery, but the Most
Fashionable and Freshest of everything in these
lines to be. found in the wholesale market.
In fixing prices on our. goods
WE DO NOr ASK OURSELVES
“How much will the people be willing to pay” for
this-or that-article?
BUT. THE QUESTION IS,
“How small.a margin can we add to cost price
and yet do a safe business?”
* We know we have been successful in building up
a large trade that is not confined o -Nevada City,
but extends to the surrounding country. We do not
believe this could have been done without a stric
observance of the rules that govern our business
pitethods5 iia Sie a alae ae
Thankful for—theliberalpatronage~extended-us
during 1884, we confidently hope that it will be accorded to us by the appreciative and discriminating
buyers dnring the year 1885
