FROM THE " SUPPLEMENTARY NEWS " Printed by Ferousson and Mitchell During the Fete iii aid of the Bonevolent Asylum, on the Premises of Messrs, Guthrie and Larnach, May 24, 1876. /~\UR LOCAL INDUSTRIES. MESSRS. HALLENSTEIN BROS., Of the New Zealand Clothing Factory, followin? the example of some of the large manufacturers at Home, and more especially -with it view of preventing the importation of English clothing, intend opening an extensive Ketail Establishment for the sale of their manufactures, For this purpose, they havr fitted up commodious premises at the corner of the Octagon and Princes street, which are to be opened on Saturday, May 27. This branch «vill be under the immediate management of Mr. Laureusou, and under the supervision of Mr. B. Hallenstein, the head of tho New Zealand firm. Messrs Halleusteiu Bros., under the management of Mr Anderson, a partner in the wholesale and factory branch, staited the New Zealaud Clothing Factory about two and a-ha!f years ago. They commenced ou a comparatively small scale ; at present, they employ between 200 and 300 hands. They have had to overcome many difficulties and much prejudice, but now their goods, as will be seen fiom the ships' rranifests, are being sent to all parts of New Zealaud. In l>nnediu only they have found peisistent opposition on the part of the larger houses who are glutting this market with imported goods i and, no doubt, the retaileis find it to their adi vantage to push these in preference to local I manufactures. The proprietors of the New Zealand Clothing Factoiy have, therefore, very judiciously decided to introduce their manu • | lactures uirect to the large consuming population of Dunedin : and, in order to do so effectively, they have determined to sell a single garment at the wholesale price. The selling price is to be marked iv plain figures on every article, from which no abatement will be made. The business is to be conducted strictly ou the cash principle, and all goods must be paid for on delivery, but, any article not found suitable may be exchanged, or the uionej letumed. Aa will be seen from the garments presented by the New Zealand Clothing Factory in aid of the Benevolent Asylum, and now exhibited in this building, they are superior in style and quality, and at a proportionately lower price, than anything that can be impoited. But, irrespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support; an industiy which employs local labour, and is a direct benefit to the butcher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, merchant, and to all sections of the community.
