“Henderson’s
Goods Speak
¥or
Themselves’.
WE
are in receipt
of large shipments
of NEW
GOODS by
very recent
arrivals.
These
GOODS
are direct from
the
MANUKFACTURERS.
We are therefore
in a position
to sell very much cheaper.
‘
We
are prepared
to sell both
WHOLESALE and RETAIL and
would
be glad to communicate
with all the small DEALERS
in this ISLAND,
as
we
feel assured
that
we
can sell them goods
as cheap
as
they
can import
them.
.
OUR
GOODS
are
not seconds,
neither
have
they passed
through
the
géé\]DS
of Commission
Houses,
hence
our ability to sell below ALL OTH-
NEW GOODS willbe disposed
of at
NEW PRICES,
and the old
Stock
willbe disposed
of at corresponding
PRICES.
[t would be worth your while to come
and inspect
our NEW STOCK
of
Goods,
and
see
the NEW PRICES.
‘
We
are not blowing our TRUMPET
as it is absolutely
unnecessary,
as
“HENDERSON’S
GOODS
SPEAK
FOR
THEMSELVES”.
~__ln
afew weeks
time we
willcelebrate
our FORTIETH ANNIVERSA-
RY in the MERCANTILE field, and
we are
therefore prepared
to give our
PATRONS
and the general
Public the benefit of our past experience,
and
also
to show them our appreciation
of their patronage
in the past
which has
placed
us where we
are
to-day,
and
we willendeavor
to merit that
Patron-
age in the future.
Therefore
when making
your Purchases
in the future
please
DO NOT
FORGET

OF
THE
COLONIAL COUNCIL
FOR
ST.
CROIX.
(Continied from Saturday’s
Avis.)
The Chairman
remarked:
My
reason
of placing the majority first
is
that
the
minority is purely
a
negative
proposal,
and according
to
definite
parliainentary
rules
you
cannot
amend
an
amendment
with a purely negative
proposal.
Ist Member ior Christiansted

remarked:
Mr.
Chairman.
It seems
to me that
the
ma-
jority of the Committee
are all merchants,
and
those
on the mirority
are
not
mer-
chants.
I donot
see
what objection
the
latter
could have to add
these
items
on
the list, the only reason
could
be
to
pro-
tect the merchants,
but
if these
recom-
mend
the additiona! articles,
I fail to
see
why they should
not be put
on
the
list

have
stated
my
reason,

I doubt

very much if ail the merchants
will agree

to have
the
items
recommended
by

majority put
on the list.

Ido not agree
with
the
last
Honorable
.
Speaker.
The
hucksters
are
not allowed
|
to import, they buy from
the
merchants
|
who are importing.
and they should
have
|
the
right
to
sell
th=
class
of goods

.

Many

I
have
not
looked
into this

matter
very
carefully,
but
as far asI
i
can
see
it would
be
beneficial
to
the

Community
if all cannad
goods could
be
sold
by
the
hucksters.
