If there’s a hole in a’ your coats, I rede ye tent it; A chiel’s amang ye takin’ notes, And faith he ’ll prent it. —B urns . T. K. Roberts, the founder of the Gold Hill Miner, has disposed of his in terest in the paper to his partner, E. E. Phipps, who will continue the publica tion of the sheet as a Peoples Party organ. The A dvertiser wishes the new’ man agement success. There exists betw’een Ashland mer chants and townspeople a lack of co- operation from which no benefit can possibly be gained. The merchants are most rigidly opposed to the people send ing out of town for anything, but they never stop to think that the merchants themselves are to be blamed. Instead of buying certain articles of commerce from our home people, they send off for them because they can buy them some what cheaper. Vegetables and dairy products come under this head. As a natural consequence, the importation effects the price of the home article, and our home people, unable to find a satisfactory market for their products at home, are disinclined to patronize home merchants when they can do as well or better elsewhere. If home merchants would make it a point to find a market for home pro ducts, home people would try to make a market for the other things that the merchants have to sell, and, in this way, local business would increase.
