'""What ails this heart of ? mine,"" is
the heading of a poem in one of our
exchanges. " We haven't read it, but

The old query, whether the dog
wags the tail, or the tail wags the dog,
has come up in this county in a most
distressing way to puzzle the brains
of the opposition. The Republicans,
from principle, take, no stock in the
Independents, and the independents
desire to la4h them in.' It's a distres
sing question, and one that is causing
much dissension in the Republican
ranks. Next Tuesday will settle it,
After that both dog and tail ;will be
defunct. . , ,
A MASSACHrsirrrs ' farmer's wife
carries a tliree-pound Colt's revolver
with which she bombards the laborers
when they don't do their work to suit
Lher. The Savannah Neivs throws
out the idea that "a few yeai-s ago
she might have made a ' fortune by
hiring to the Republican1 committee
and coming South to manufacture
campaign issues."' . ! t

If you have not read the Messenger
(which has a large cfrctdation among
the -colored people here) get a eOpy
and look over its - columns. It con
tains verv iuterestins readinsr. When
an independent picks it up he drops
it, after reading about six lines,"and
looks as though he had bitten a-Crab
apple by-mistake for a sweet -orange.
What shall it profit a man to get a
gold mine if he fall in with freeboot
ers and lose his own body? And what
gain is there for Democrats to rush
into Republicans'' arms only to be
embraced and quietly and gently
eased into a back seat? '

We never stop to ask what it costs
to produce goods. Our New zYork
buyers gamer them in with; the
ready dollars and we put but our
small profit on and let them" go and
mako our' values make our business.
We believe tht just in proportion as
we can offer inducements to pcoile to
buy our goods they will buy them;
We are not egotistical enougn to sup
pose that our tremendous. trade is
because it is us. Oh,. no; it's becaiihie
we sell goods cheap.
Take, for instance, eur lot of Ker-

il ior 4 s eents, ana we, as merchants,
are entitled 'to one profit and no

into the "Racket," and we propose to

Of course our competitors, fight us
hard and say all kinds' of unkind
things of our stock; and, really, it i3 no
wonder. . Suppose you had spent years
in building up a business even though
vou had grown rich at it, it would
be a source of exceeding great! per
plexity to have some one open up by
your door and sell goods in many
mes ioress tnan you couut by them.
There are but a few hundred oeoole
to be affected by. our values on the
one side, and there are fifty thousand
consumers on the other. Of course
we could not stoD to consider the few
hundred to the detriment of the fifty
thousand. We have a good deal of
