S. IJpman & Co., Portland merchants, have dispensed with the old style of marking goods at even figures and lutve Introduced the system of selling at odd figures, according to cost, and of making change to n cent. This is n sensible and just move in behalf of buyers. Coppers should be In circulation nil over this coast. The prejudice against ll,?in, especially by the work Ing people. Is fallacious. A fnlr profit is nil that the merchant should expect, and the correct way of doing business it to mark goods as Up- nun & Co. do and nuke cliattge accordingly. The sooner that system become general the bet ter!! will be for the public Dakota wants to be n state, but Dakota is go Ing to lose its large colony of Mennonitcs, who went there from Russia.
