DILLMAN, Editor. We save you always something, sometimes much. Many things you would like to have to prepare for winters coming. Many things you must have and maybe you've set aside a sum that you feel must cover your winters needs. There's the time of our usefulness.

You'er in pressing need of certain articles. It's the very time for us to shrink the prices. That's the way to win your trade and your neighbors. There is no good in selling summer goods cheap in winter. We name these prices in large plain figures.

We're bold about it for we know their merit. Proprietor and (Business Man'g'r. ASA LEA, committees of this county, for a joint of the Sub-Treasury plan by M. A. Housholder for the People's party, and W.

R. Cowley for the Republicans, the first debate was Id at the opera house in this city on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. R. II. Stctt was chosen as chairman, while A.

S. Dennisou looked after the interest of Mr, Cowley and Joseph Wallace that of Mr. Housholder. It was 2 :10 when Capt. Stott called the meeting to order and introduced Mr.

Housholder who opened in a 70 minute speech. The question under discussion as stated in the agreement is "that the Sub-Treasury plan as advocated by the People's party north and south is constitutional and to the best interests of the4 people of the United States as a nation. And Mr. Housholder was permitted to talk for 35 minutes and never mentioned the subject under discussion in any way shape or form. It was nothing but the regulation howl about some man having more money than some one else, that any man who had more money than his neighbor was nothing less than a thief.

He then said that the People's party proposed to loan money to the farmers at 2 per on non-perishable farm. Published every Thursday. Office in Advo-ATE block. Up Stairs, South Side Square. Rates for advertising made known on application at this office.

It was the great howl of the alliance last year, indulged in by the entire crew, that they were in favor of reducing the salaries of the county officials, the claim being that these officers received in many instances, twice what they deserved. The campaign of the alliance-peoples party last fall was that if they were placed in power that they would reduce these salaries. Every candidate on that ticket was elected in this county last fall and when the state senate passed the bill reducing the salaries of these officials about 30 per cent, every alliance county officer of Cherokee county wrote a letter to some member of the legislature protesting against the passage of the bill.

Come direct to headquarters when you want to buy good goods at reasonable prices. Our one price system is pleasing the people. We do not sell to your neighbor any cheaper than we do to you.

We do not whisper in your ear, (we will give you prices.) Our low prices seem to bother somebody. As long as our customers are satisfied, the merchants should be. They say we will brake up at these prices. All right come and help brake me up. It's the buying in large quantities where we get the advantage of them, it's the turning over large lots of stuff in one day that enables us to undersell them.

Our increasing trade evidence that the people ore satisfied that's what we want. We are not in business to please the business men its the masses we want to reach, we do not make prices to one POLITICAL PARTY that we would not give to another. We do not agree to sell to some men at 10 per cent, and charge others 50 per cent. Why because its not right, its class legislation and that is what the masses are kicking against. Our aim is to sell good goods at a living profit, treat everybody alike, buy my goods cheap for cash and sell them the same way.

In speaking of the prosperity of some of the protected Industries, among them the Hartford Carpet Company, Willimantic Linen Company and the tiouthington Cutlery Company, we find their dividends range from one hundred and eleven to three hundred per and the wages paid their laborers average less than a dollar a day. This is what they are pleased to call protection to American labor. These profits go into the pockets of the pro tected manufacturers to protect infant industries which have been sapping the vitality of the country for a hundred years, and the older and larger they get the more it takes to feed them, as the McKinley bill 6hows.

It is hardly necessary to explain to intelligent readers hereabouts the utter falsity of the statement quoted. Nobody ever read anything of the kind in the rdown-East paper called The Hartford Courant," for the Courant prints facts. No 6uch dividends are paid-nothing like them.

His words fell with great weight, and the general endorsement of the same by applause by the audience was evidence of their appreciation of his efforts in their interests. Following him came "Cash" Crouse, the Frisco engineer, who left his engine some three months ago to tell the wage earners of the state indisputable facts about the alliance legislature, which instead of assisting the railroad laborer's cause as promised, defeated nine out of ten of the bills for their relief. "Cash" has the house rerorts and substantiated every statement made. He had seen the actions of the alliance house defeat the "weekly pay bills," that was wanted by the people of this district at that time.
