WE SURRENDER.
About one year ago The Armour
Packing Co. established a branch
house here for the sale and dis
tribution of the many different
products of their world ronowned
packinghouses, situated at vari
ous pluoes in the United States.
We rejoiced with many of
our citizens and felt proud of our
city, when we understood that
world renowned house recognized
our worth, and hoped their colors
w< uld continue to fl in the
breeze that zephyrs over, around
and through the many hills and
beautiful valleys of modern
Rome and her surrounding dis
trict.
But alas, the Armours have fold
ed their tentsand quietly depart
ed and no more will our streets
echo to the sound of their deliv
ery wagons, nor will the hearts
of those of our merchants who
have accorded them a generous
support be made glad by the
hus l ling salesman.
This was a mystery Io uh until,
upon investigation, we discovered
that Rome had a wholesale house
or two, so called.
These houses decided that as
they came here firstand had al
ready staked out all the claims
Mr. Armour could not have their
candy, and forthwith proceeded to
work with the view of driving this
intruder out. Howwell their plans
were laid is proved by the
results.
These Romans are whales even
if they do swim in shallow water.
They drove Mr, Armour out of
Rome even after he had estabish
“d a business way up into the
i housands.
We gather some consolation,
however, from the fact that O'.her
companies are negotiating with a
view to picking up this plum.
