You can buy a straw hat for a quarter, a suit of
clothes for $6.75, and a grand piano for $59.
But you get what you pay for. You can buy a
straw hat for S4O, a suit of clothes for SBO, and
a grand piano for SIB,OOO. And then again, you
get what you pay for. Strictly speaking there
are no real “bargains.” The cheap man gets
what he is looking for-cheapness. And the man
who wants merit, pays for it. Our goods are of
the latter class and sold at the lowest, prices pos
sible, consistent with quality.

NINE STATES WILL
HAVE ELECTIONS
Kentucky and New York of
Special Interest.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 29
(Special)—Elections will be held in
nine States next Tuesday. Governors
are to be voted for in Maryland, New
Jersey, Rhode Island, Massachusetts,
Kentucky and Mississippi. In Penn
sylvania, Nebraska and New York a
few minor State officers are to be
chosen.
Though the campaigns in several of
the States are more or less exciting
they are attracting little attention be
yond the borders of the Common
wealths in which they are held.
The most interesting State contest
in the East is probably that in Mary
land, where a governor, state comp
troller, attorney general and clerk of
the court of appeals are to be elected.
The issue this year is the election
laws enacted by a Democratic legisla
ture.
Rhode Island will elect a governor
and other State officers. Republicans
are confidently predicting the defeat
of James H. Higgins, the present gov
ernor. The campaign is to a large ex
tent a duplication of that of last year,
which resulted in the election of a
Democrat governor, while the Repub
licans elected the remainder of the
State ticket.
In Massachusetts the Democratic
party has split into two factions and
each has named a State ticket. The re
election of Governor Curtis Guild, Re
publican, is regarded here as a fore
gone conclusion in view of the lack of
harmony in the Democratic ranks.
The election in Mississippi will be
of a purely perfunctory character,
merely to confirm the results of the
Democratic State primary held last
summer. The successful candidates at
the primaries, all of them Democrats,
of course, w r ill be certain of election.
The new governor will be E. F. Noel,
who will succeed James K. Vardaman.
Kentucky in Limelight.
The campaign in Kentucky is one of
the most interesting in the entire
country and all signs point to a close
contest. The Republicans are making
confident prophecies of success in the
election of their candidate for gover
nor. The bearing that the election
will have on the United States sena
torship has given added interest to the
campaign.
Pennsylvania elects a State treasur
er. The independent movement in the
State which was so prominent two
years ago has been abandoned and as
there is to be a straight party vote the
Republicans expect to carry the State
by the usual majority.
The contest in Nebraska is for a
justice of the supreme court and re
gents of the State university.
In New York City.
The country is taking more interest
in the local campaign in New York
than in any of the State contests, un
less it be that in Kentucky. The only
State officers elected in the Empire
State this year are two judges of the
court of appeals. The Republicans
and the Democrats have nominated
the same judicial ticket and so there
is no contest. In New York city inter
est has been created by reason of the
fact that the Republicans have fused
with William R. Hearst’s Independ
ence League on the county ticket, the
Republicans taking five-elevenths of
the ticket and the Independence
League six-elevenths. The union of
the forces have been severely crit
icised by many of the most influential
Republicans in New York city. It is
expected that many of the more con
servative Republicans will refuse to
support the fusion ticket with the re
sult that Tammany will win by a larg
er majority than usual.
A number of cities throughout the
country will elect municipal officials
Tuesday. The fight for municipal con
trol in San Francisco, Cleveland, Cin- j
clnnati and Columbus is being stren- j
uouslv waged. Especial interest is I
manifested in the contest in Cleve- i
land , where two mayoralty candi- !
dates, Tom L. Johnson and Congress- J
man Theodore E. Burton, are men of
national prominence.
His Dear Old Mother.
“My dear old mother, who is now !
eighty three years old, thrives on El- I
ectric Bitters,” writes W. B. Brun- !
son, of Dublin, Ga. “She has taken i
them for about two years and enjoys |
an excellent appetite, feels strong I
and sleeps well.” That's the way El
lectric Bitters afloct the aged, and the
same happy results follow in all cases
of female weakness and general de
bility. Weak, puny children too,
are greatly strengthened by them.

TOASTS PRESIDENT ON
RED HOT GRIDDLE
N. Y. House Heaps Blame
on Roosevelt.
NEW YORK, October 29. (Special)
In a market letter issued by a prom
inent stock exchange house the blame
for present conditions is placed on the
President. The document is a rather
remarkable one and reads as follows:
“Credit has been assassinated and
business must largely cease. How
has this happened? To us it is plain
that the manager of our great busi
ness nation is a man ignorant of bus
iness principles and of erratic mind,
unwilling to consult with the various
business specialists who could sug
gest proper orderly methods to pur
sue.
“At a time when the financial cen
tre of the nation, the great reserve
and clearing centre of the richest
country in the world, was rocking on
its foundations, what does he so? Ab
sents himself with swashbucklers and
clowns and passes his time in pursu
ing bobcats and slaying semi-domes
tic fat bears.
“He comes forth from such environ
ment and scolds that Wall Street is
paying for its debauch and the rest
of the country is all right—and his an
swer is that great Pittsburg failure,
a $45,000,000 manufacturing corpora
tion. Why? Because its credit has
been stopped. What will be the end?
Citizens Labeled
“There are three kinds of citizens
in' this country. First, those who
learn from knowledge; second, those
who learn from experience, and third,
those who never learn. He is today
discredited with the first. He will in
six months be discredited by the sec
ond, and his only hope will be by a
demagogic appeal to the last class.
“Those that the gods wish to des
troy they first make mad. What
did the original Mad Messiah, compar
ed with this man of violence, who
has taken the mantle of prosperity
bequeathed by the martyred McKin
ley only to drag it in the mire of na
ional adversity?
“Credit has been assassinated. The
mob has stamped, only death and ex
haustion will stop them. From now
on the liquidation in Wall Street that
has been epidemic will be sporadic.
The titanic struggle is about over.
Sown to Wind
“In ignorance, in self-conceit, he
has sown the wind. The whirlwind
will blow far over Wall Street. It
will blow north and south and west,
and the harvest will be bitter fruit.
“With men like Morgan at the helm
Wall Street will quickly get its bear
ings. Now let the followers of the
Mad Messiah stand to their guns. They
need to. And when their own hour of
need comes we trust and pray that
he will be with them to raise them out
of the slough of discredit and not be
in the lair of bobcats and fat, harm
less bears that run away to save their
lives from predatory violence.”
SO SOOTHING.
Its Influence Has Been Felt By So
Many Americas Headers.
The soothing influence of relief
After suffering from itching piles,
From Eczema or any itchness of the
skin,
Makes one feel grateful to the rem
edy.
Doan’s Ointment has soothed hun
dreds.
Here’s what one Americus citizen
says:
W. T. Weekly, of 312 Spring street,
Americus, Ga., who for many years
has been with the Sheffield-Hunting
ton Co., and now has charge of the
stock of paints, wagons and farm im
plements, has used Doan’s Ointment,
and has found it thoroughly reliable,
as is always the case. Speaking of
his experience with this remedy, he
says: “I learned the virtues of
Doan’s Ointment by using it for ec
zema, and itching hemorrhoids, from
which I had been a sufferer for many
years. It was a constant torment, day
and night, and I could find no relief.
It is impossible for me to describe
mv sufferings. I tried all kinds of
ointments and salves, but nothing had
any appreciable effect until I got
Doan’s Ointment and began using it.
It was more as an experiment than
anything else, and I had no faith |
whatever. I was surprised to exper
ience immediate relief and since us
ing it I have been free from all ter
rors of itching skin diseases.”
