We sell Rogers, Peet make season after season, instead of boosting Schloss Bros, one season, EL. P. Co.

A Word on Styles Our competitors assured you a few neeka ago that the coats are "cut longer" this season, and as you well know, swagger suits last season carried Rogers, More 't-M mure 2 4 iMh4 ft iiVcA AJj "1L" olul- and deep center vents and side creases on the Than in Any Other Make. but this season fashion journals of any standing are emphatic in their criticism of fan-tail coats or coats vlvi 1 with any side vents or with deep center vents, and they assert that will note, too, the proper length is 32 inches.

that as soon as we bejjan to suuiunucs on siyxcs our advertisements our com- petitors do not say another word about coats "cut longer" than last season. When we say 32 inches -they fall in line and average on 32 inches, even if "lift "'Vi i forth for and during the remainder cf said term of two years wholly excluded. and forejudged from exercising and using the same and every one of them, and be wholly excluded and ousted from and disqualified from holding said office and from concerning in any wise in and about the holding" of or exercising the saidotiioe or mayor of Kansas city, and from exercising the powers and receiving the emoluments thereof for and during the term for which he was elected as aforesaid. "It is further ordered and adjudged that said defendant pay the costs of this action." XAQIlfER AOT QUALIFIED. Attorney Hale, representing James S.

Gibson, county attorney of Wyandotte county, against" whom ouster proceedings have been brought by Attorney General Coleman, won a partial victory before the Supreme xoart yesterday by persuading the court, to order-that the findings of fact taken in the Gibson case by Special Commissioner H. G. Larimer shall not be conclusive, if assailed: The ouster proceedings 'against County Attorney Gibson were-- brought on the same grounds as those" on which Mayor Rose of Kansas City, was ousted by the Supreme court Friday. Same time ago the court ordered H. G.

as special commissioner, to proceed and make findings of fact on the testimony he had previously been appointed to take -in -the -ease. -Ordinarily findings of fact are accepted by the court as the true Judgment. Attorney Hale objected to this point. He argued that the special commissioner could not render findings of fact that would not be prejudicial to his client. He introduced numerous affidavits tending to prove his point.

He also mentioned the fact that Mr. Larimer is a radical prohibitionist, so would scarcely be qualified to sit as judge in the Gibson case. Larimer was originally appelated to take testimony in the case, and Mr. Hale argued that his duties shoyld end with that; that any further actiorfv-an tils part would be prejudicial' County Attorney Gibson's case. The court, after Mr.

Hale's argument, modified its order, holding that if Gibson's attorneys assail any point in the findings the objection may be argued before th coii rt. The court also reserves the right to make any changes in the findings that the evidence may make justifiable. The court also modified another portion of its recent order. This order was to the effect that the state and Mr. Gibson bear equally the costs in the suit, so far incurred.

The costs are estimated at about $800 and Gibson was instructed to pay into te court $400. Under the order Issued i esterday Gibson is to-pay -Into the court now $100 and an equal amount when the, first, $100 has. been used up, LIST OP THE OPINIONS.

Will Contest Larimer's Findings of Fact. sasY will 'not be permitted to -Qualify in case he is re-elected mayor, as he has been ambitious of doing. This point was settled definitely by the Supreme "court yesterday. Ouster proceedings were brought against Mayor Rose by Attorney General Cowman several weeks ago and to evade 3udSmnt Rose resigned his office laSt Tuesday. He thought that by bo doing the Attorney General would have secured his, point and would drop ouster suit, instead, Mr.

Coleman pushed' the suit and Friday a decree of ouster was entered against Mr. Rose. Mr. Rose and his attorney contended that the ouster decree would not affect his qualification for holding the office of mayor of Kansas City, Kansas, and Mr. Rose.

announced that he would be a candidate for re-election. He waa confident that the ouster decree would not Interfere with his re-election. The Supreme court shattered his hopes yesterday "with a decision debarring him from, office of mayor during he two years' sterm for which he was elected in April, 1905. Ills term, had he not resigned, would not expire until one year from now, consequently it be useless for him to become a candidate for re-election this soring he had: The journal entry entered in the case by the Suprme court debarring Mr. Rose from office, reads as follows a "Tk.ft court finds that the defendant Was at the regular city election held in Kansas City, in April, 1905, duly elected to the office of mayor of said clty and on April 12, 1905, regularly installed iri'the said office, having duly qualified taken the oath prescribed by law and thereby and thereupon be-i -came the rnayOr of said city for a term of 'two "years, expiring on April 12, 'That by reason of the acts and default' Jillftfprl irt th a notitinn artet oVi nwrt by the evidence the said defendant has forfeited the office of mayor and is dls- qualified from holding the same during tha Jlilll form "Wherefore It is by the court considered, ordered and adjudged that the said defendant.

Holding Valued at $2,506,131 The Prairie Gas and Oil company, which is the Kansas branch of the Standard Oil company, filed Its annual statement with State Auditor Wells yesterday for assessment purposes. The statement places a valuation on the total amount of Standard Oil property at $2,506,136.92, which Is an increase of $352,241.48 over the amount reported and assessed last year. According to the statement the Standard has property in ten Kansas counties, apportioned as follows: Allen, Anderson, Chautauqua, 871.63; Franklin, Johnson. Labette. 880.68; Miami.

$115,063.60: Montgomery. Neosho, Wilson. $1,064,166,136.92. These figures show that the greatest amount of the Standard's property is held in Wilson county. This was also true last year.

The report this year shows a big decrease In the amount of the Standard's property in Labette county, also In Wilson county. This decrease Is due to the fact that the Standard made several large sales of pipe Use in these two counties to the Kansas Natural company during the year. Last year the board of pipe line assessors acepted the Standard's statement as filed and made their assessments upon that basis. It is probable that It will follow the same cours this year since the valuations placed on the different items are praotically the same as they were lat year. The section of the statement referring to pipe line, places the following valuations per mile upon pipe of the various sizes used in the oil and gas fields: Two-inch pipe, per mile, $172; 3-inch, $312; 4-inch.

$446; 6-lnch, $776; S-inch, 10-inch. 12-lneh. $258. The statement gives the par value of the stock of the Prairie Oil and Gas company as $7,500,000. The statement was filed by Theo.

M. Towe. tax agent, whose address Is given as 28 Broadway, New York city. May Mertavce Heni(i(M(i. The Supreme court rendered a decision yesterday holding that persons who have homesteaded government land nut have not made final.

proof may place a mortgage on the property If the money secured thereby is used In the Improvement of the homestead. This decision is of great Importance to people who have taken up government land. Under a previous decision it was held that homestead land on which final proof had not been made could not be mortgaged. The decision rendered yesterday makes such a proceeding legal and reverses the former decision. The opinion was handed down in the case of C.

M. Stark and H. M. Morgan, which was appealed from Graham county. The opinion was handed down by Justice Porter.

In the course of the opinion he said: "A mortgage upon government land made by a claimant holding under the homestead act prior to final proof, for the purpose of securing money to improve the land or for any purpose, provided It Is not intended thereby to transfer the title in evasion of the statutes, is not void nor In violation of the statutes." Service ia Coart.
