Our Long Dress Goods Counters

are full of life and activity these Dec
ember days. How could it he other
wis wise with Winter just before us, and
such a superb stock of Winter Dress
Goods-the products of two con-
tinents--displayed in apparently end
less profusion on thousand feet of
counters?
The question is sometimes asked;
Why carry so large stock k,represent-
ing almost everything that is pro
duced abroad or at home? Would
not smaller line equally satisfy the
demand, taking less room and leav-
ing space for other lines of goods?
Our ansUer is: Dress Goods with
us are the great speciality of the
business, and we prefer to have not
alone a sufficient, but an oUert1ol0ing
stock, not being content simply to
meet the demand but leading 1t
alloays, and giving our patrons the
choice OF the worlds products.
Devoting ourselves not to general
merchandise, but to the great Dry
Goods business exclusively, we pre-
fer in that special business to lead
the country, devOting our whole
time and attention, with all the IA
cilities of our great organization, to
the service of our patrons in this
line. And with every added year
as the business grows greater and |
has become of national reputc, with
orders coming to us from every I
State and Territory of the Union
notably from New York, Boston
and other centers of commerce-we
feel increasingly satisfied to con-
5inue and still further perfect the
service to the great-public, IN the

which belong to the business of

capture, but we will get even with it

Mcintosh and the other prisoners were
taken to tine prison pen five miles south
west of Purcell and placed under strong
guard. AS but one of the marshals was
wounded and his injury is trif1ing the
charge of murder cannot be brought
against the men. They may be tried for
resisting arrest but it is the belief that
they will be released after Oklahoma

MORE TROUBLE IN SIGHT.
Some excitement is created by report
that large number of Texans who have
camped on the Washita are On their way to
Purcell. 1t is feared they may aetempt to
to rescue the prisoners. Hsuch an attempt
is made bloody conflict will follow.
THE TROUBLE PROBABLY AvERTEO.
KANSAS CITY. April 22-Tonight's adj
vices to the Journal from Purcell, /. T.,
says: The apprehended trouble from the
wounding and arrest of boomers has been
averted by the release of the captured men.
The Texans changed the course of their
march and fearing collision with United
States troops have encamped about five
miles from the Oklahoma border.
The two men supposed to be mortally
Yesterday now seem to be in a fair way
to recovery and unless through some IN
forseen accident there will be no deaths
resulting from the battle. The Texans at
first swore revenge, but have prudently
concluded to first take possession of their
lands and it they secure their quarter
the trouble drop.
The rush from the south into Oklahoma
still continues and viii do SO until after
Thursday when it is supposed the lines Of
march Will be somewhat weaker. The line
for sixty miles south of Oklahoma is prac-
ticallY like water in a pipe. Wagons
empty out at one end and fill in at the
other, always full. And so it is from the
south all day long the white topped
wagons pass through Purcell. which is
only across the river from the Mecca of
these pilgrims. The railroad is taxed to
its utmost and the Santa Fe has at last
solved the problem of running two trains
north on a single track against two run
ming south. With twenty or more trains
a day on this new road not a single acct
dent has occurred, the only mishap being
the breaking of the waterworks yesterday
morning which has caused a scarcity of
water, The telegraph operators handling
all these trains are constantly at work day
and night. That their work has been well
done the record Of no accidents will bear
witness. The business here is simply Won

FOR COMMERCE COMMISSIONER.
Ex-Governor Martin Strongly Endorsed 70,
the Present Vacancy.

WASHINGTON, April 20-The name of
ex-Gov. John Martin, of Kansas, has been
presented to the administration with
strong Endorsements for the vacancy on
the interstate commerce commission. The
existing vacancy was caused by the recent
resignation of Aldace Il. Walker, of Ver-
mont The salary of the commissioner is
$500 per year. Gov. Martin is eminently
qualified for the position, and it is under
stood that his Endorsements are of the
strongest possible character. He has been
an active figure in Kansas politics for
many years, and has been prominent in
the councils of the National Republican
party. He was member of the National
Republican committee during the cam
paign of 1854 and in that year was elected
governor of Kansas. He entered upon the
duties of his Office in 1885, at a time when
the railroad commission in his state was
still an experiment. During his admins
tration the utmost harmony between the
people and the railroads within the state
was established, and the system observed
at present by the Kansas rail-
road commission is accounted one
OF the best and most satisfactory
in the country. State control of the local
railroad lines was brought to perfection
under Mr. Martins administration, and
as governor he was responsible for the
policy observed He has necessarily be-
come familiar with the railroad problem,
and thoroughly appreciates the Importance
of the questions involved IN the relation
OF the government and the several states
to the railroads 1t IS believed mere that
he would make an excellent commissioner
and that no better selection for the place
could he made

~ upon hearing Of this. the husband
sought the offender, aud with pistol in
hand made him get down upon bis knees
and humbly apologize in the presence of
of two ladies who were in the store when
the irste husband entered. As a result
Oklahoma will gain an able dry goods
salesman.
