Dewey is still the conqueror of Man

not rob him of that grlory.
By means of counterfeit stamps a sys

According to the Augusta Chronicle

President Kruger still hates to give

the side with the most men rather than
the most prayers.
The British newspapers are very
much disturbed by the enthusiastic re
ceptions which have been tendered the
Boer peace commissioners in New
York r and what promises to be an ova
tion for them wherever they may go in
fhis country. The London Express,
for instance, is in a very bad temper
over the whole bnsinesis', and suggests
as a retaliatory measure that Mr.
Bichard Croker, of Tammany Hall,
New York, should be ostracized by the
sporting circles of the United Kingdom
because, as it says, he is a represents
tive of tha Irish in America who
ardent sympathizers with the Boers
canse and bitterly hostile to England.
The general tone of the British press
Is that the intelligent Americans are
a man in sympathy with Great Britain,
and only a few scrubby politicians
the Croker type and their Irish follow
era wish Lord Robers ill luck in South
Africa, This serves to illustrate the
iron-clad ignorance and arrogi
the average Londoner. He regards
as absolutely monstrous that others
sbonld question the justice of any
cause in whicj} he engages and resents
it as though it were a crime. It is true
that the administration at Washington
is with England in the war against
the Boers to, the extent President
MoKinley dares to go, but the Ameri
caa people in the proportion of almost
10 to 1 believe that the cause of the
Boers is just and wish them success
their gallant struggle for liberty and
independence. This fact, hewever,

the editors of British newspapers,
There is no good reason why they
shonld be excited by the cordial greet
ings which the Boer commissioners
have received since their arrival
thia country, because there is no dan
ger whatever that they will succeed
in drawing the United States into the
South African war or disturb the
friendly relations existing between
this government and that of England.
The audacity shown by the South Afri
can Republics in throwing the gage of
battle at the feet of the powerful Brit
ish Empire and the brave fight they
have made in the face of overwhelming
odds compel sympathy and admiration
even from their enemies. Their deeds
will be recorded in song and history,
while the conduct of England will be
execrated for all time.—New Orleans

Nothing can go out or my doors unless satisfaction gees with it, If Kpan’t pleas* my
patrons in every way, I prefer not sell at all. Buying
is a big item of expense. It is better to take your time about it and look around for
the-best store. It is better to spend a little time in making selections than to spend
a long time in regret after you buy. My proposition is to serve you better than any
body else, both as to quality and price. That is the basis on which I ask your trade.
