WHAT'S A BARGAIN ?
It Depends Entirely Where You Gel It.
If a reputable house sells a reputable piece of goods at a price lower than any
other house sells it—THAT’S a Bargain. For the next week we will
show you the practical definition of the word ‘ Bargain.
Dress Goods—“A Torn Oyer.” 4
Great selling brings confusion to any stock. The popular department is always hit
hardest. Three weeks of Dress Goods Rush means stock disordered, con¬
fusion, overhauling. Re-arrangement bring to the front this week

A PLEA FOR UNITY.
Minor Differances Should not
Keep us Apart.
The Time is at Hand When the People
of the South Should Work
Shoulder to Shoulder.
M R. KniTOR:—The speech of Tom Watson
last week at Lexington proved conclusively
to my mind and also to many others that the
gentleman has found out his mistakes, at
least in attempting to break up the solid
South.
Political agitation of a right character is
wholesome and good for the body politic, and
will make a country more prosperous and her
officials more honest, but, under the circum¬
stances, which have been created by certain
political agitators, who can say that the
prophesies of the Chicago Inter Ocean (which
paper is intensely Kepublicau and says that
the Populists are headed by brainy and mad
adventurers politically, who will soon merge
their party into the Republican party) will
not be fulfilled? Our only safety—1 mean
the safety of the southern white people—their
continued existence as a disinct element in
the national growth and prosperity is their
political solidity, their actions as a unit
wherever their interests were concerned.
This has been well nigh destroyed by the self¬
ish ambition of a few demagogues who have
deliberately sacrificed the unity, harmony
and good feeling heretofore existiiig among
the white people of this section for their own
personal agrandizement and self elevation,
and unless these self same egoes who have
perpetrated the mischief shall start not only
a reaction but a hasty and hearty reaction
the solidify of the southern whites is doomed,
then comes in the balance of power to be
given to the weaker element in our midst.
Then vice will rule vitue, ignorance govern
intelligence and all that is necessary for good
government and the absolute safety of the
entire people will be relegated to the rear.
’Tis true we may differ in some minor
points but cannot we discuss those points
within the Democratic party, thereby keep¬
ing our party organization up, and at the
same time deal with questions that pertain to
our wellfare and for good government without
having brother arrayed against brother, fa¬
ther against son ami a general break up of
the entire social fabric of all that is near and
dear to us as true southern men descendants
of as noble a race as there is on God’s green
earth. I contend that we can come together
without making any concessions whatever on
either side, and 1 hope the day will soon come
when that desired end will be accomplished;
when shoulder to shoulder the white men of
this section will be found marching along
with "o division in their ranks and not u
single deserter to tell the tale to the enemy.
The interest of the majority are surely the
interest of the minority so long as we live m
the same country, ply the same vocation,
breathe the same free air and worship the
same God. To accomplish this end I would
that the Chairman of the Democratic execu¬
tive committee call a mass meeting of the
white citizens of the county to meet at some
near day to see if some satisfactory arrange¬
ments cannot he reached whereby harmony
and peace will prevail and our race come out,
as w 7 e should, on top.
Let us give no encouragement whatever to
the enemy. They are organizing now all
over the State, and unless we keep solid our¬
selves some power may be wrested from our
grasp. I only throw out these reflections,
knowing that the Democratic executive com¬
mittee is composed of true and tried men—
men who will make any sacrifice for the good
of the country and who will no doubt he up
and doing with their mightnll that is required
and expe ited of them just at this particular
time.
Let us select as our standard bearers, men
who are in full touch with the people; men
who, knowing the wants of the people, will
have the courage to try and obtain them.
Peace will reign, good government will fol"
low and prosperity will be written over the
door of every home no matter how humble
that home may be. J. Mce. I!.

Here is a proposition that is calcula
ted to stagger some people; but, on its
soundness, we are willing to risk our
reputation; “Good public highways
are a better investment to anv country
t j ian railroads.” Railroads build up
only towns. Good public highways
build U P >’ ot only towns but the coun
try as well. They are investments in
which all the people not only hold
stock, but realize dividends.

Our methods have destroyed dull seasons. Our idea of a
progressive store is a place where you can get only the best at
“POPULAR PRICES”

This is the ground work of good business.
Our trade in Spring Goods abounds—cannot help it. Our
magnificent stock of Clothing, Furnishings and Hats proves
this. They arc certainly unrivaled and as drawing as an art
school.
We are capturing the trade of all who learn our prices and
