GOLDENBERG’S **STORE NEWS,"* January 5th, The advertising of bargains which exist only in the fertile imagination of the advertiser is easy enough. Such are not the methods of this store. Nor do we advertise some- thing as a wonderful bargain unless we have enough of the advertised goods to hold out a good part of the day. It is easy enough to lose a few cents on an article in order to ad- vertise it at a ridiculous price—if the quantity is small. We could do it, but we won't. We haven't an iron- clad conscience—we have enough business sense to foresee that such dealings will eventually hurt—come back like a “boomerang.” The business of the first day of our JANUARY CLEARING SALE far exceeds all expectations. Folks who came for the adver- tised reductions FOUND THEM, and we turned nobody away with the excuse “all are sold.” We regret to have to say these things, but it was in us to say, and it had to be said. WRAPS CUT. ENGINE COMPANY'S EQUIPMENT The Proposed Railroad Extension Discussed at Length. SOME OTHER MATTERS There was a regular monthly meeting of the Mt. Pleasant Citizens’ Association last evening, presided over by President J. W. Somerville, at which alleged inefficiency of the fire department, or one company there- of, and street railroad facilities were the principal matters discussed and passed up- on. Extra charges by express compani and the extension of the city limits and the police patrol were also considered. After Mr. Campbell, from the committee on sireets and sidewalks, had informed the association that he had latd before the House appropriation committee the associa- tion's request for the extension of Kenesaw avenue and Lowell street to the Zoo Park, and that the committee seemed very favor- ably disposed, the committee on schools was instructed to ask the House appropria- tion committee to provide the sum of $4,540) for equipping the village school house with steam heat and sewer connections.

Pleasant had been duped by Full yard wide Androscoggin muslin, ree the Metropolitan Railroad Company. He duced to & eaplained how, about two weeks ago, he sic. yard. and others had accompanied President Har- _* - ries and the directors of the company over G-quarter ““Mohaw! bleached sheeting the ground of the proposed extension of wohacsa ee the company’s road up to and around Mt. Pleasant, and how a day or two later the House of Representatives had passed a bill providing for the extension of the road only to 18th street and Columbia road. Mr. Somerville said he desired to say, however, that the bill passed was not that of Presi- dent Harries, but was one introduced about a year ago at the request of President Phil- Ups. It was the earnest desire of President Harries, stated Mr. Somerville, that the road should be so extended that it would make a loop around Mt. Pleasant. He knew, therefore, that President Harries was as much disappointed as were the peo- ple of Mt. Pleasant when the House only authurized the extension to 18th street and Columbia road, and he had every reason to believe that Mr. Harries would do every- thing in his power to extend the road in the near future up to and around Mt. Pleasant. President Somerville’s remarks gave rise to a very general discussion of the matter, during which it was stated that the reason why the directors had overruled President Harries was their belief that there was not Population enough to warrant the building of the road to the extent urged by him. It was also stated that the people could not expect any relief in the matter from the Capital Traction Company, as that com- pany appeared to be perfectly satisfied with the present situation. It was decided that the association and people of Mt. Pleasant should do everything in their power to de- feat the House bill and secure the extension of the Metropolitan road to Mt. Pleasant. ‘The matter was finally disposed of by the adoption of a resolution directing the com- 1o$c. yard.
