“ As to dull times,” said? Mr. Wright in reply toa question askec by the reporter “the ovly sign we have yet seen is in the matter of sluggish collections. This could be easily overcome if those who are in the habit of putting their cash into the Bank in place of squaring their accounts, would just reverse matters. We think*we are within the mark in saying that at least one-half of our customers whose accountare past due, could as easily pay them as they can secure the next mea! they require—but from carelessness and “habit’ they add*to the book-keeper’s load, and run up the postage and stationery acccunt.

“Whatis the outlook for 1895,” asked the reporter. “‘We think it is good,” said Mr. Wright, “and are preparing for a good year’s business, We are making an entire change in the style of many cf our goods, and will have much tiner goods, for the prices asked, then ever before; and having again secured our little espace in Tue Examixer (to which we credit no smal] share of our increased retail business last year) — we hope with the use of ‘Printer’s Ink’—Selling Priees’—and other tricks of the trade, to be able, if called upon one year from date, to again have a good re port to make of the selling qualities of ‘Home Made Goods.’

THE GUEPUT LARGER THAN USUAL.

‘We have done our average trade,” eaid Mr. 2. C. Goff, one of the proprietors of Goff Bros’. Boot and Shoe Sesto, to the reporter, “ and feel that we have done well to do it, ae merchants hare been more careful than usual in buying boots on account of dull times. We have turned out more boots than usual. We put more handwork ov our inake of lcots than is put on the imported article, and our maike isbetter suited to Island wear. Besides we have heen cutting our prices, and now they compare favorably with what is paid for imported goods.”

“ Our bodts- are all - sold in the Province,” contirued Mr. Goff. “Tt bas also been ourprinciple to buy all the leather we can on the Island, We buy between $3,000 and $4,000 worth of leather a year here, and would buy more were it not for the fact that sowe kinds which we require are not made here.

We employ thirty-two hands, and our average weekly wages is $160. We have kept our employes busy, and the fac- tory has been going the full year, some- times workingat night. The prospects for this year are fair. I believe the trade will be careful in buying, and will buy only as required, which is tke better plan, as goods can be had very quickly.”

Mr. Gotf smiled as the reporter inter- | may require in a hurry.

TRADE FLOWING IN HEALTHY CHANNELS.

¥x-Counceillor Hogan, sash and door manufacturer, whose factory is on Navige tion Compary’s wharf, when spoken to re- garding the condition of trade said he had a fairly #Wtcesefal year. “I have employed from ten to twelve men during the year,” raid he, “and [think I have found work for them during that time. At present | have closed the faetory for a short time be- cause of a want of materia). This scarciiy of material is caused by the deep snow cf last winter, which rendered the lumberers unable to furnish the usaal supply. In tie meantime I will take advantage of the closing to make slight repairs necessary in such establishment at least once year.” ” “Tn general,” continued Mr, Hogan, o7 believe the trade of the Isiand sound and flowing in healthy channels.

When they come to an up-grade ora turn they are sure to topple over and cry help! help! and attribute their fall to poor } times. Now I maintain that with such, jand with those who take two days to do ;one day’s work, or who: put off ti!l toe morrow what may be done to-day, times | will always be poor.”

BETTER THAN THE LAST FEW YEARS.

“Comparing last year’s trade with that of the previous few years,” said Mr. New- son the well-known manufacturer and dealer in furniture, “LI should say that it has been somewhat better. I keep from ten to twelve hand« employed in my fac- tory, working chiefly on orders. I impert more furniture than formerly to suit» the tastes of the people, and | cannot complain of the way the public patronize me, es- pecially the newly-married couples.”

“Yon may say if you wish,” aaid he “that the Seaside Hotel at Rustico Beach, had a fair season last year. Many very fine | people patronized the hotel, and were charmed with the place. We hope to see them again this :e.son, as well as their friends. From-eleven to thirteen people are employed at the hotel.”

“fam fond of farming,” continued Mr. Newson, “and ‘am well satisfied with the results of my enterprise in connection with Warren Farm. The block, as you probably know, contains about five hundred acres, part of which isleased. I cultivate, about two hundred and fifty acres of clear land. The chief crops are wheat and hay.

farm.” A GOOP TRADE LAST YEAR.

Mr. W. D. McKay, of the Charlottetown Woolen Mills Company, when interviewed informed the reporter that their mill. was running in full blast now, and had been running during the past year continuons- ly. “We employ thirty hands,” said he, “and pay about $240 a weck in wages. Our trade during the past year was good. It isalso good at the present time, and we are looking forward to a good season coming. We are not overstocked with goods at present, our sales having b en about equai to the output.”

“We are now in new quarters for our stores,” proceeded Mr. McKay,“ which gives u3 a better advantage and more room to carry on the retail trade as well as the wholesale. The price of wool the past year has been low, but we are in hopes that the farmers may, during the next year, get a better price. Our mill is now working on patterns of summer tweeds = which are new in design to anything heretofore produced. - The manufacture of our own make of tweeds into ready-made clothing is with us working up « large trade, and we find a steadily increasing demand for this class of goods. We give a good, genu- ine article at a low price.”

THE LARGEST OUTPUT FOR YEARS.

Messrs. McKinnon & McLean, iron founders and machinists, report a good trade during the year. “We began work la-t year,” said Mr. McLean to Tur Ex- AMINER’S representative, “by furnishing the steamer Mayflower, owned in Pictou, with a new surface condenser and pump, and followed this up by putting new propellors in the tugs St. Lawrence and Lion, owned in Pugwash and Miramichi respectively. We also made an 80-horse-power boiler for the Hospital for the TIasane; a 30-horse- power boiler for West Kent School; a 35- horse-power rotary and shingle mill for William Matthews, Portage;a boiler and engine for the saw mill of Rose Bros, at East Point; a {new starch mill at Anag- ance, N. B; a rotary saw mill for E imunton, N. W. T; and we also shipped potato mot to Manitoba.”

“ Besides,” continued Mr. McLean, “ we completed the machinery for the Govern- ment steamer Hillsborough, which I would like to describe did Tae Examinen’s space permit. The machinery has already been started on the Rocky Point and West River ferries; and since started has never had a warm beam ora sign ef a cut in any of the working parts, which speaks volumes for the manner is which the work was performed as well as the material used. it may also be stated that durlng last year we furnished six creameries with boilers and one with engine, and fitted them up to the satisfaction of al! concerned, doing the work in competition with other outside manufacturers.”

“Our output last year was the largest since 1888,” went on Mr. McLean in re- ply to questions by the reporter. “We re from thirty-five to forty hands and expended in wages cver $10,500. Now, that our annual repairs and _ boiler cleaning has been completed, we are at work again with orders enough ahead in our foundry department to keep us busy until the firstof May next. As we cast every other day, no one need wait very long for any special castings which they I think that the past record of the firm will certainly war- rant a continuance of public patronage.’’

TRADE RVEN BETTER THAN USUAL.

“ The Soap Works,” said Mr. Lapthorne, to the reporter, “‘ were started eleven ‘years ago by Beer & Sons, with myself as man- ager, and they have been in continuous op- eration ever since, with a very good output of soap and potash. About six months ago | bought out the works and have been running them @n my Own account since. I have found trade even better than usual during that period, and it strikes me that the spring’s trade will be bigger than ever. We have been making thirteen brands of soap, all of excellent quality, besides put- ting up the celebrated Royal, Potash which gives the fullest eatisfaction.”

“The factory,” said he, “is fully equipped for the prompt execution of work. All the boiling is done by steam, and the cans for the potash are made ou the premises. If you know of any persons who have not t ied our makes of soap send them along.”

TRADE KEPT ON THE INCREASES.

“We had a very fair trade during the past year,” eaid Mr. A. Duchemin, of A. Duchemin & Co., sash and door manu- facturers. “At the first,” eaid he,. “the prospects were dark, and rumor seemed to indicate a continuance of the darkness. Bat, as the year advanced, thanks to our many friends and customers, trade in- creased’ “and kept on the increase all ; through the year.”

THEIR BUSINESS EXCEEDED EXPRCTATIONS.

Bruce Stewart & Co., Engineers and Machinists,slso had a good report to make. “T am glad to be able to eay,” said Mr.Stew- art, “that our business during the year has

_* Yes,” said Mr, Robert.

We employed twelve men all the year and are now, run- n.ng fall blast and Wave a large supply of pine od spruce on hand ready for next year’s work.”

ANOTHER VERY GOOD YEAR.

“ Business was very good during the past year,” wasthe repty made to the reporter's interrogatories regarding — trade by Mr. T. B Riley, proprietor of Riley’s tobreco factory. “I have recently added new machinery to my factory in hydraulic pumps, fpresses, etc.,and my equipment for the manufacture of choice tobacco is now very complete. Steady employment is given to twenty-five hands in ny fectory.”

HAD 4 GOOD YEAR’3 TRADE.

“ We have had a good year’s trade,” said Mr. Nichoison, of the tirm of Hickey & Nicholson, tobacco manufacturer, “ and look ferward to another this. year,;: Our output last year was larger than’ usual: We have employed about thirty hands during the year and paid thenr good wages.. Our manufacture of tobacco «is vastly superior to the imported ‘article.

Sir,—Summerside cannot compete for the “ Champion mean man.” A few years ago a clergyman in Charlottetown had a wedding, and the bridegroom not only gave no fee, but borrowed $2.00 from the clergyman for his wedding trip, and never returned if. In addition to this the clergy- man had to pay 24 cents for registering the license, and also for the marriage notice. In order to economize on this last item, he inserted it in the “Lost and Found” column.—* Found, on 25th inst., at Char- lottetown, a wife,.&c.” aud so got it in for 25 cents instead of 50 “cents.
