The rush at C. B. Montague's on last
Saturday to get cheap goods at the new
cash store-was 6 great" that a young
cos.ntr.vman who had imbibed a little
too freely concluded that such a rush
was is tended for personal harm, and
iu order to get out of the way he crawl
ed under the sidewalk. After the rush
was over one e-f tbe clerks found him
there in the ditch and marched him
out. Breathless and trembling in his
boots he said that he thought they were
going to rob him. Hia condition was
uch that for safety he was quartered
by the Solite city marshal and given
entertainment until morning. lie set
tled his bill to the generous recorder
and marched homeward, a sadder bat
wiser man. The man was from a
neighboring town where business la
rather dull and was not used to such a
rush of trade.

Hie steam saw-mill about four miles
from town, belonging to Jennings &
McPherson, burned down last Friday
morning about 2 o'clock. Nothing
was saved. No insuraace. As the
mill has not been running for a year
or more it. Is supposed to be the work
of an incendiary. The loss is probablv
o(XX). Messrs. J. D. Walton and 2. T.
Bryant, two of our most excellent
citizens, lost about f 400 each, having
invested that much in themill. If, as
supposed, this is the work of some
fiendish scoundrel, we do hope the
guilty party will be brought to justice.
Every good citizen is interested in fer
reting out such a crime, an4 for self

cating some other place as a
better one than their own to
do their trading in. Lebanon
is not entirely exempt from
those who ought to be loyal to
and work for the upbuilding
of their city, but who are un
fortunately quite the reverse.
Much capital has already been
driven away from Lebanon by
this course, and many con
templated enterprises that
would have enhanced values'
in this vicinity have been
abandoned through the ma
lign influence of chronic
cranks. At us all work to
gether for oilr own homes ami
our own people-, and the dav
is not distant when we will
have as projierous an inland!
town as there is in this State.
Merchants here in every line;
will sell you gootls as fow as
they can be sold anywhere.'
They are always with you to
help to assist m every public
enterprise. Montague voices
the sentiment of the inerean-j
tile community of Lebanon,
when he says tfiat he will sell
you anything that .von want
C7 . af
from his mammoth ftock at
the lowest living rates. His
stock is a very largo one, and
the gmxls must be sold. Drop
in ami be convinced. There
is no good logic in building up
other cities at our own ex
Ionse. The farming community
understand their own interests
well, and they ktiow that to
make their land valuable and
sought after by buyer, a good
prosperous town in their
vicinity is just tho thing to
attract newcomers, and they
almost universally patronize
their home towns. Our inter
ests are identical. Let our
motto be, "Home against tho
world."
CLOTHING.
We make mens', bo3's and
children's clothing a special
ty. Our spring stock is now
arriving ; call. in and examine
them. The low price of wool
last year has sio reduced the
prico of tdothing that ' a good
suit is now within the reach
of every one.
TBUT JJ yon owe Montague anything for
clothing pay it now.
TO .THOSE WHO OWE ME.
1. must insist on lull pay
ment being made by those in
debted, to me within the next
thirty days, as I cannot wait
longer. A word to the wise is
suiUeient ; I have no time to
send personal duns, and I
need the money now.
Respectfully Yours,
C. B. MONTAGUE.

line of boots and shoes, as well
as a very large assortment
Our styles are unsurpassed,

of gimlet-eyed shoemakers are
