i - If so, we ar? not talking to you, as no one could influence
“feyou to buy from any one else; but this is to those who have
been buying shoddy Shoes from merchants who do not care
for any thing but the profits, and regardless of wear.
Just ask your neighbor about our Winter Shoes and
they will tell you about them better than we can write. It
is poor economy to buy Shoes for winter that will not
serve you ten months or one year, even if you can get
them for 15 cents a pair less. We are going to keep and
sell Shoes that will give satisfaction to every one who buys
of us. We want to sell you and your family your winter
goods and will save you money sure. Youjs,

Ths senators and rrpr«Hntativ<* are com¬
ing back to town for the long winter mm-
Sion. Many of them lirlng their wives and
fnnitlies, nml soon the social season will
be in foil Wait. The regular social sea¬
son in Washington i» ushered in by New
Year's day, but nil through December
there will be ninny dinners nnd small par¬
ties. A larger number of congressmen
than ever before will live in hotels this
winter, a sure evidence of hard times. It
is cheaper to live in n hotel than to keep
house in Washington. >lo«t of the con¬
gressmen who can afford it rent houses
and “live.” The others merely “board.”
A majority of the senators take houses. A
senator’s term is for six years, and he has
a certainty before him for that length of
time at ionat. The poor representative,
however, must lords forward to the possi¬
bility of defeat in the coming year, and
with this staring him in ths faoe he can¬
not afford to rent a bouse and settle down
as if he meant to live here. 8o be take#
to the hotel, and boarding houses. Thirty
of the 85 senator* lire in hotels--five or six
of them In one house. Probebly three,
fourths of the members of the boaee of
representatives live either in hotels or
boarding house*. In one hotel, on Penn¬
sylvania avenue, not far from the capital
may be found 80 or 4tt representatives and
their families, liestdes a number of sena¬
tor*.
To Win Tries
This is the time of the year when con¬
gressmen begin scheming for re-election.
Now they lay plans for capturing the del¬
egates to their district convention* or for
winning votes enough to give them an¬
other term in case they are nominated.
Between the two the life of a congress¬
man Is not a happy one. Ho must spend
most of bts leisure hour* dictating or writ¬
ing letters to constituent* who are anx¬
ious about that appointment which ha*
never come. Speeches on thu tariff and
other questions must he prepared—any¬
thing that will help along on the road to
popularity.
tlongreosmen sometimes adopt queer ex¬
pedients to gain the good will of their con¬
stituents. Year* ago a member from a
western state was very touch afraid be
would lie knocked out in the approaching
campaign. lie bad not managed to make
himself a power iu congress. In fact, his
constituents had never beard of him doing
anything besides voting with hla party

“Yes.”
“Then why don’t you introduce a bill
to have the capital moved to the principal

“The very thing.”
A Beward Ter Oeslss,
And he introduced the bill. It worked
to a charm. The peoplo of his district at
once concluded ha was a great man and
with mnch enthusiasm sent him bock for
another term, so that be might press his
removal bill and secure its passage. In
the next congress he reintroduced tfaeeame
measure, and though it was promptly pig¬
eonholed til the committee room, and of
conrse be never got a chance to make a
speech on it, fcis peoplo stood by him and

During the recent debate in
on the federal elections bill a member ol
congress asked a newspaper correspondent
to take luncheon with him. Over the
oysters the statesmen spoke as follows!
“Will you do me a little favor?”
“Certainly.”
“I belong to one jiarty and your paper
to the other , That Is no reason why you
should refuge to give me a little lift, is it?”
“N-»o.”
“Well, this 1* what I would like to have

W AS0INOTOX, Nov. 27.—United States
Treasurer D. N. Morgan has submitted
to Secretary Carlisle his annual report
on the operations au<l the condition* of
the treasury. It shows that the net or¬
dinary revenues for the fiscal year 18W
were $885,819,638—an increase ut $80,-
881,844 over those of the year before.
The next ordinary expenditures were
$388,447,554—an increase of $88,454,623.
There was, therefore, a decrease Of. $?,-
772,779 in the surplus revenues, reducing
them to $2,841,674.
Including tho public debt, the total
reciptawere $782,871,214, and the total
expenditures were $773;003,898. The
public funds amounted on June 80, 1892,
to *7H<1.331,805, and on June 30, 1893, to “
*740,038,(155.
After setting apart those sums of gold,
silver and United Btates motes, which
were held for the redemption of certifi¬
cates of deposit and treasury notes, there
were left a reserve ‘or general fund erf
$187,012,740 in 1892, and $1«8,108,891 in
1803. These amount*, howevet, included
certain sums of certificates of deposit,
bonds atid coupons, which were unavail¬
able for any other purpose than the set¬
tlement of the treasurer's account and
which, if canceled, would have left an
actual available working balance of
flM.W3.KSfi and on the two
dates respectively. By Wept, 20 thi*
balance bad been diminished to $149,-
250,268, owing to a deficiency in the
revenues.
In seven month*, beginning with last
December, up wart is of $81,000,000 the redemp¬ was
drawn out of the treasury in
tion of note* and the gold reserve was re¬
duced during the saute period by $29,*

of lost $18,000 $15,000,000 in the of revenue, gold, put U»e the treasury

notes, issued in tiro purchase of silver

Mr, M nr Inn's Report.
The secretary of agriculture, in his
report, regrets the vague character of
tbe department organization. He de¬ a
vote* considerable space to • review of
what he regards as an anomalous part¬
nership between the. government of tbe
United States and the governments of
the respective states for the conduct and
encouragement of state agricultural col¬
leges and experiments. Referring to the
experiment mm appropriated stations, for he the use of the state
says:
“This appropriation is unlike any
other public of moneys the United legislated States, out be¬ of
the treasury
cause there is no officer of the United
States authorized to direct, limit, con¬
trol or audit its itemized expenditure!.’'
He suggests that the stations should be
entirely divorced from the department
and the sum appropriated the charged di¬
rectly to them, or that secretary
should have some power to direct and re¬
strain their disbursements so as to in¬
sure a He legitimate adds expenditure view of the

he took charge as 2,487, ami state* that
there are now on the payrolls only 1,994,
a reduction of 508.
During the fiscal quarter of the first
year he reduced tbe the expenditures in com¬
parison with corresponding quarter
of last year by over $36,000. He presents
a table giving fiscal the appropriations and his for the
current year, estimates for
next year, showing a net saving in his
estimates over the appropriations for the
