The Arnold Brother», two young men of Welsh extraction, lately from Mis souri, hut more re« ently from W arren ton, at the mouth the Columbia riv e /, arrived in Wasco on Monday and regis tered at the Westered H otel. The C h ris tian hum«*« of the two brothers are John and H enry, hut that is a matter of small impnr ance, mik I will not euatde you to distinguish «me from the other »hould you form their acquaintance. To say there i« a distinctioif without a d iffer- ence lietweeu tlieae twin brothers from their appstarauee to the ordinary olwer- ver cast be in no wise clasaili«-d as an ex- agerattou. They aeem to lie identical. There is, at present, a slight difference Id th e ir dress, although they generuiiv dress a lik e. They are th irty years of age and weigii 171 pounds each, and are. evidently, young men of a high order of iuteliigem*e and grxsl morals. They have spent a year in the saw m ills of Warrenton but having heard inocli of the wheat fields of Sherman they were desi rous of seeing for tinoueeives and taking a hand iu the hat vest work for a season. The hrotners say they have turned down many tempting offers iu the line of show work, but the calling does not appeal to their tastes. They secured work with FXward Sink on Wednesday and thin k it possible they may remain in Sherm an county. I l any of tn eS h er man county girls bec*»me acquainted with the Arnold Brothers «ye «uiutioii them to lie careful for they w ill surely fin«l, when they think they are talking to •‘one’’ th*-y will probably be talk n a« to the other. j MèCOY, ATW OOD CO. ftinee opening up oar business in the O. T .G o . building, under the cash ays* lent, we have ix-en more than pleased wiih the general results, and find ti at the cash syetem is the only syetem to make friends «.nd liold them after you have ntade them. W hile we realize that we have not la-eo doing biieineas under this syetem long enough to thoroughlv demonstrate (Ilia fact, hut we feel that if carried out on this plan, we will surely make friends with the general public, hence increas ing our business, and by doing so, eat) offer better inducements to our custom ers in matters «if trade. Horne of our town'» people, as well a» some of our country f: tends, are saying that it cannot be poasibie to m u a cash business in Wasta/ or Sherman county. More especially the way we are pr«»pos- mg to do it, ms they s/y we are getting the "double-shot," as it were, on our customers, by asking them to pay once each month, and if they have not got the money, offering to loan the money to t«ay for what g'»si» they have lx mg hl during the preceding month aud charg ing 10 per cent interest on the amount loaned. This is exactly w hat we are offering to do, hut do not think that this applies to everylxaty, as we are not loan-' mg money to people that are not resp^»u- sihle. nor aie we selling gtxxJs to those that are not responsible. For if we did, we would be working on the same old plans as have been carried for years lx»- fore, resulting by over charging aud making responsible customers pay all liie had account» incurred by selling to irree|xmsible customers. This kind of husiues« we are cutting out and mean to keep it up; for the simple reason that the dealer and consumer cannot prosper under such condition»; for no other rea- »on than th i« : That tha rnnrancht» are obliged to a»k the «rhole»nler lor credit, which mean» a great deal of money amt if the merchant» are leaponaibie, they will grant th« credit retpiired, which on the fa«-e looks very g«x»d, hut how about the price»? The moment lliev g rt you into (heir clntche», up g»x$» the price« on all the gix/ds you want to h u t, »imply because they have your hand» tied. The consequence* are that the country merchant» are obliged to »et the price« up on the cuHtomer». hence the high price» for mo«t everything von buy on the credit •yatein. Not »o with the cash «vstern, a» soon a» M r. Wholesaler Hilda you are paying cash lor good», he c«-me» to you with all kind» of propoei- tloun and w ill tell you that the prices are the »ame, but a» voii a re a p ie ttv good fellow, and a« you ate pa) lug cash, t«e will gtv< >ou diacounta for what von buy from now on, etc. Hence, the country merchant get» discount« on the inerchaiidise lie bay«, ha» no interest to pay on over due bill«, and beside«, get« hi» goods on the cheajiest m arket. Con sequently, lie «ells the consumer at a much tower figure, which range» 10 to 50 per cent cheaper than the old busted up merchant ha« been doing for year«. Home of our cronic kicker» and knrx'k- %r« are telling our friend«, that if weonly sell g«xxl« at a discount of 10 per cent, and if we, a» banker« charge 10 per cent for the money we loan to pay the ac* c« unt. the cAatomer» just break even.
