KING EDWARD HOTEL IN NEW YORK 47th Street and Broadway JOHN HOOD, President and Manager NEW YORK CITY, MARCH 2nd, 1908. MR. E. L. SMITH, Jackson, Georgia. DEAR SIR: I presume you are very busy at the store as I have not had a line since I left. I have a big job ahead of me to-day, but will take time for a line. The weather has been very bad, but I am standing it fine and have made good headway with my buying. You will think so when the bills begin to pour in. Conditions are ouite different in this market today compared with one year ago. Then they were scaice * \ and high with late deliveries. Now they are plentiful and cheap and can ship at once. I have bought enough goods for every man, woman and child, white and black, in Jackson and Butts County. Without doubt, I have bought the greatest line, and I think cheaper, than we have ever owned. The money panic hit these New Yorkers much harder than it did the South, and they are anxious to sell and you can name the price yourself and take them—that’s what I am doing—and there promises to be some sensational retailing soon at prices not heard of for two or three years past. Miss Swanson came yesterday from Baltimore and will be here this week. She is very enthusiastic over the styles and outlook for the coming season. Tell Mrs. King and Miss Minnie I have outdone myself buying Silks', Dress Goods, White Goods, Laces, Embroidery, etc., and that they know the old saying, “goods well bought are half sold.” If I have good luck I will finish this week. I am anxious to get back and open them up and start them going. With regards to all in the store, I am yours truly, R. N. ETHERIDGE. The above is a personal letter written by Mr. R. N. Etheridge, who is buying goods in New York for the well-known CIARMICHAEL-ETHERIDGE-SMITH CO., to Mr. Smith, a member of the firm. He seems delighted with his success in handling those New Yorkers to his own and his customers’ benefit. Andrews, Wm. L. Wilder. .J- 0. Gaston and H. G. Asbury are in the race for County Commission ers. Messrs Asbury and Gaston are members of the present board. They are ell strong and intelli gent eitiz ms and here’s hoping the best three wins.
