Beginning at the Bottom He Ascends
the Ladderof Business Success.

There is scarcely a reading
person throughout vur land who
has not read something of the
great merchant of New York, who
a few years ago waudered pen-—
niless througb the streets of that
c.ty but is now worth bis millions.
While people bave wondered at
this, many of them have never
stopped to consider that almost
every business commun.ty has
its self-made men, who, though
their success may not have com
passed such extremes as the great
New Yorker. yet their acheive-
ments are equally remarkable and
creditable. Every man cannot
do business in the metropolis,
else the smaller cities and towns
would be unknown, and there ure
men conducting business in coun-
try towns who, had circumstance
ziyen them the advantage of such
» pupalation as New - York, there
is no telling what they would
have accomplished.

Greenville has some men of
tis kind, and the purpose of this
urticle in the REFLECTOR is vo call
ut ention to what one of them
has done right bere in our midst.

SAMI. M. SCHULTZ.

in the year 1855 Sam’! -M.
Schuitz was born in the city of

three years later young Schultz
went to New York and engaged
in such work as a boy of his age
could perform. At the age of 15
he weut to the State of Minnesota
where he spent four years on &
farm. Having relatives in Tar-
boro, Mr. Schultz, then 19 years
old, came to North Carolina. He
took a position with D. Lichten.
stein, a wholesale grocer of Tar-
boro. He had occupied that po-—
sitiou Onl six months wheu his
talent and tact for business had
sO impressed his employer that
Mr. Lichtenstein decided to open
a branch store in Greenville and
put Mr. Schaitz in charge of it.

So in 1375 we find Mr. Schultz
in Greenville with a stock of gro
ceries and furniture. He opened
in what was ‘hen the only brick
store in town, aud when new ones
were built lutier his place was
styled the Old Brick Store, under
which name it become famous
through Pitt aod surrounding
counties. He conducted thie
business successfully fur Mr.
Litchenstein through seven years
and then became a partner with
him. Under the copartnership
thus formed the business was car-
ried on for seven years longer,
when Mr. Schuitz purchased the
interest of his partner and be-—
come sole owner iu 1889.

ry added tothis building which
with the large basement it con-
tains makes it practically a three. |
story building. This building was
equipped especially for a grocery
and furniture business, and Mr.

Schultz moved in on July 15th*
His new quarters are admirably
adarted to his large business and
we are satisfied he will go on
meeting the success that has
crowned his efforts here during
the past twenty years. He carries
a complete stock and does a large
business both wholesale and re—
tail. He 1s also our largest ship-
per of country produce.

When Mr. Schultz first came to
Greenville in 1875 the motto of
his business was ‘“‘quick sales and
smal! profits”? He made such a
cut in the price of groceries as to
produce almost a sensation at

never turned his back on any ay

ing to pass favorably upon Mr.

The*decision of the Acting At-

question raised by Auuitor Hol-
combe as tothe legality of Mr.
Ransom’s appo ntment to the
Méxitan mission, in view of the’
existence of section 2, article 6, of
the Constitution, which declares

. that “no Senator or Representa-_
tive shall, during the time for
which he was elected, be appvint-.
ed to any civil office under the
authority of the United States,
which shall have been created or)
the emoluments whereof shall.
have been increased during sach

This provision apparently fitted |
the case of Mr. Ransom, for he)

Senate before his term of office as

sitting there all alone, contented as

a toad under a cabbage leaf. Coke
addressed him.
“Senator Vest,” said he, ‘‘who

Senator Vest was somewhat sur-
