Not Profit But eash
THE CLINTON NEW ERA-
° The remaining days of this week—TRURSDAY,
FRIDAY and SATURDAY—we devote to the .final clearing out of 411 Summer Goods,
Stock -taking is over and we have just about $500 worth of Summer Goods left. Now we
have.a motto in this stole that not a dollar's worth of goods must be ettrried over from season
to season in fact we can't afford to 801 goods at the small margain of profit that we do if we
follow the policy of the ordinary merchant by carrying over large stocks of goods from one s3a.
son to another. We must open each season with a bright, new stock. New Fall Goods are
coming in every day. It take4 lots of time to get them marked and.put into stock—another
good reason why we want to get rid of this $500 worth of 1-;urinner,, Goods. You have still
many weeks left in which you can wear Summer Goods; evetrif you keep them over till next
summer it won't be a bad investment at the prices we're going to sell at. This is not a ease
of selling to tit /lice it profit ; a•; a matter of fact many of the goods tnentioned below are being
offered at HALF their original cost. They must be turned into cash by Saturday .night. A

Should Bad Promises' be Kept.
The Hamilton Herald (Independent)
says ;- •
It is not a question as to whether thei Liberal.
leadembefore and during the campaign of 1896,
made promises which have not been fulfilled.
It- cannot be denied that such iiromises 'were
• made. There is no question that thepre-elee-
fulfiltd. The real question is whether these
. promises should have beet falfilled.
•
2ff foolish. For any statesman m a growing coun-
try like Canada, unable to foresee 'the condi-
tions' of the immediate future, to promise' that
expenditures will be reduced is unwise. The
promises to abolish protection were insincere
as well as unwise; so were the_promisesrespect-;

e
preferential rate to Great Britain, a
cut of sai per cent has been made in
the tariff. The Liberals claim, and we
think fairly so, that ehey have made
good their promise of tariff i-eform,
thctigh a certain amount of protection
still remains in the revenue tariff.
The questioin for the .people to con-
sider is not so much the nature of the
peonalse made, but as to whether the
action of the G-overnment was right or
wrong -was it. in the public interest or
not. The Conservatives are opposed
to the English preference, end also in-
tend to restore all the duties to their
former. figure. That was their declar.
ation in Parliament. Therefore, the
man vvhc votes against the Laurier
Government simply because it has not
literally carried out a promise,. votes
for an Increase of his own taxes.
It is true that the expenditure has
increased -but it, is equally true there.,
has been wenderful expansion in the
country, and the increased expendi-
ture has literally added no burden to
the taiapayers. The Liberals elaimed
that the expenditure was too high for
a period when the country was mak-
ing little or no progress.'that much of
the expenditure was stolen or wasted.
The increased • expenditure under the
resent Go'Verntnent has gone for pub-
ic works and improvements ot a like
character, and the Oppesititm,haze ncrt,
been able to prove that one. dollier has
been corruptly -spent. , The Liberals
believe that the growing needs. of the
country under their wine ad ministration
justify the increase: Sir Unarles Tup-
per Niblicly stated that, the expende
ture of the country must increase. If
the inereased expenditure has been
justifiable and proper. -and we contend
it has- why should any tnan vol e
against art henest government simply
because one of their ante -election
promises has not been fullhlk d to the
letter, though followed in spit it ?
