This wholesale establishment is situated on Hampshire street , between Fifth and Sixth . All varieties of wines , liquors , & c. , are kept on hand , from the common cheap articles to the costly champagne that pleases the epicure . Mr . A. has obtained a reputation as an honest , straightforward business man , who believes in keeping a pure article and selling the same at a fair profit . There are many occasions when alcoholic stimulants are necessary , and to such parties we would comment the above named House. " (pg 107) . "Quincy Tribune- For several years this paper has been regarded with great favor by the citizens of Quincy , especially those of German descent . It is the peculiar province of this paper to be 'Independent in everything- neutral in nothing '. The proprietor , T.M . Rogers , Esq. , is too well known in Adams county to require any mention in this sketch , but we will say that he is highly capable of managing a newspaper , and gives to the Tribune such qualities of character that cannot but make it a successful enterprise . There is a large job office connected with the Tribune , where every style of printing , from a hand-bill to a book , is attended to with despatch . A wholesale department is situated on the lower floor , where a large assortment of everything in the line of stationery , blank books , & c. , is always kept on hand. " (pg 106) .
