These questions--do they refer to Robbery! Fire! Murder! No; but they concern the wel- fare of humanity. Flash adyer- tisers, propping up flash goods by flash sentiments, are peering anx- iously and enyiously from the win- dows of their empty band-box stores at the thousands daily yis- iting PUTNAWS in search of SPRING CLOTHING, And are asking, What Is a Resident Manager? As the people who patronize PUTNAM go away with bundles under their arms containing | Nlen's, Boys, Youth's, and Children’s SUITS, OVERCOATS, UISTERS, AND ULSTERETTES, These dealers in Clothing have no opportunity to interrogate them, so we will answer the question: A Resident Manager, like the popular PUTNAM Manager, W. H. FURLONG, Esq., is a man selected who understands his business, to meet the wants of the public. MINER, BEAL & HACKETT, the Largest Clothing Manufactur- ers in the East, are the proprie- ‘tors of THE PUTNAM Strictly One-Price Clothing House, and are too busy manufacturing to come to Chicago and sit down and wait for trade. They spend their time in originating designs, and making. goods cheap, durable, and stylish, for their numerously, daily in- creasing thousands of patrons to buy, wear, and be satisfied. Every dollar taken in by THE PUTNAM is sent East, and returns from the East to benefit the West in the shape of Stylish and Well-Made Suits and Overcoats. W.H. FUR- LONG, Esq., the Resident Man- ager, is here to study popular pre- ferences for goods, and he seems to have hit the mark, as witness our monopoly in CLOTHING ALL CHICAGO. We save two profits to the cus- tomer by manufacturing our own goods, and still make enough to advertise liberally, pay fair sala- ries, and occupy the most com- plete and extensive Clothing Stores in the West.

May 1.—The temperance question was discussed incidentally in the House to-day in the debate on Carlisle's In- ternal Revenue bill. The leading advocates of temperance were as usual confined to the Re- publican side, but the discussion has shown that there are two districts in the South that can boast of a temperance apostle. Price, of Iowa, true to his Quaker appearance, insisted that the Government should not recognize, as it now does, the sale of intoxicating liquors, and to a protest from McMahon that it would not do to Kill the goose that lays the golden cgg, Price said that in lien of the whisky tax he would be willing to have a- taxJaw upon bank deposits and even upon in- comes. Finding Price asa temperance apostle willing to go so far, McMahon had no remedy but to declare that the objection to whisky- drinking was based upon a false sentimentali- ty, and that temperance men were pandering to A FALSE PREJUDICE, a statement which may hereafter be of some service to McMahon in the grog-shops of Dayton. , Updegraff, of Iowa,—for Iowa is the banner: temperance State in Consress,—denounced in- temperance, and intimated to a Southern, member that the ravages of yellow-fever} in Memphis might be attributed to the manu- facture of whisky. To this Casey Young, who represents Memphis, sardonically replied. that, though many had been taken by that fell dostroyer, the whisky distillers were still alive. Conger, not to be left behind by the temperance army, took Barber, of Chicago, to task ‘for hav- ing urged the passage of the Carlisle bill be- cause certain distillers in Peoria and Boston wanted to have it passed, and he asked what’ had become of the thousands of petitions against intemperance. Singleton, of Illinois, made & very puthetic attempt in bebalf of the class which he characterized as POOR FARMERS. He wanted an amendment adopted which would permit them to distill their own brandy from fruits that would otherwise be wasted, and he drew a vivid picture of the comfort which poor farmers would derive bencath the shadows of their own stills. Singleton’s appeal was not suo- cessful. Haskell, of Kansas, said that the poetie dream of the Illinois farmer Congressman, with its vision of the poor man beneath bis own vine and fig-tree, would not be realized, and that the amendment instead would turn every farm- er into 2 moonshiner and would allow every old woman to J FILL HER WASHTUBS WITH WHISKY, her milk-can with applejack, turn ber husband. into a drunkard, and make a colporteur of him to get his neighbors drunk. ‘The debate upon the bill was not concluded, although Conger’s first amendment, which pro- posed to charge 5 per cent interest on unpaid taxes dating from the expiration of one year, was defeated. ‘The House seems disposed to make no amend- ments to the bill which has been so carefully considered, and to pass it as it came from the Committees. Gen. Garfield rose in the House. this afternoon toa persona! explanation which he claimed was- demanded in the interests of truth. Hesentto the Clerk's desk to bereada circular which is said to have been sent by the advertising nrm of Rowell & Co., of New York, to various news papers, in which it was stated that Gen. Garfield- was in a great- measure respensible for the failure of the Ways and Means Com mittee to report a Dili placing wood pulp on the free list, and consequently Garfield was instrumental in maintaining the high duty on printing-paper. Inthe forcible manner charac~ teristic of Garfleld’s debates he stated that he was but one of a minority of five, and that 8 mi- nority could not prevent. the legislation which the Committee wished toenact. But toa direct question of Mr. Frost, of Missouri, whether he was in favor of reducing the duty on pulp and paper Garfield said, “Tho duty on paper and pulp is 20 per cent ad valorem. The average duty on other articles is 45 percent. I am willing to reduce it (just as low as possible) without crippling our American: industry, but further than that I am not will- ing to go fur any amount of clamor.” It will be for the public to determine after this statement whether the Rowell circular, to the effect that Gartield is opposéd to placing wood pulp and print-paper on the free Ust, is true or not, whatever may be thoughtof the method chosen for giving publicity to that state- ment. THE DEBATE. To the Western Associated Press. Wasutxcron, D. C., May L—The House went into Committee of the Whole (Mr.'Thompson in the chair) on the bill amending the Internal Rev- enue law, the pending amendment being thas offered by Mr. McKenzie, providing that the pro- ducer of leaf tobacco shall ve allowed, without: payment of tax, to sellleaf tobacco to other than licensed dealers, manufacturers, or ex- porters, provided they do not seil exceeding $7,000 in any one year. Ruled out on & point of order. Mr. Knott offered an amendment providing that sub-section 2 of Sec. 3,241 Revised Statutes (which requires a tax of $50 on each still manu- factured) shull not apply to distillers who manu- facture for theirown use wooden stills. Adopted. am. SINGLETON (TL) offered an amendment providing that noth- ing contained in this act shall be construed to authorize any interference by revenue officers with the exercise of the right of every individ- ual to manufacture and convert fruits grown on his own land into such form for family use as he may desire free from internal-revenue tax. Debate took place on the amendment and bill, and the temperance question was introduced. The amendment was rejected—ayes, 66; noes, 84. ‘The Committee then rose, and reported tim bill and amendments to tke House. Mr. Butterworth said the bill looked to perfect- ing the internal-reyenue system, and had no more to do with the temperance question than with the Koran. He represented a district which paid one-fifth of all the revenue collected icles in the United States, and be bad al tax on mani andnoton articior”
