WE SURRENDER.
About ore year ago The Armour
Packing Co. establish'd a brum h
house here for the sale ar J dis
tribution of the inuny different
products of their world rouowned
packinghouses, situitudat vari
ous pLces 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
would continue to fl in the
breeze thatz’phyrs 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 tents ami quietly depart
ed and no more will our stieets
et ho to the sound of their deliv
ery wagons, n t will the hearts
ot those <<t our merchi'iits who
have accorded them a generous
support be made glad by the
hus' ling salesman.
This was a mystery to us until,
upon investigation, we discovered
that Rome had a v holesale house
or two, so called.
These houses decided that as
they came here firstand had al
ready slaked 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 eslabish
ad a business wt*y up into the
thousands.
We gather some consolation,
however, from (he fact that O'her
(companies are negotiating with a
| view to picking up this plum.
