WHATS
In a Name ?
WHAT'S

Shakespeare says, "A rose with
out name would smell as sweet"
nevertheless, lust at the dawn of
this last decade of the nineteen
century, IN the year of grace 1890,
there 10 quite a good deal in
name.
A clothier without name and
reputation Is heavily handicapped
in the race for trade. People like
to buy from dealers whose estab-
lished record is guarantee for
fairness and honesty.
Our name, A. NATHAN. The One
friCe Clothler, has been before the
| public Of Northern Montana for
years and has an established repu-
tation for honesty, fair-dealing
and hearty endeavor to please
customers.
The reputation of a c]othier is
the accumulated evidence of many
transactions with many customers.
A good name can only be founded
on continued merit in merchandise
and fairness in dealing. We can
be surpassed in neither.
Our name has a value to you. It
specifies a place where you can
save money by buying better
goods for less money than else
where. Try us and see if this
good name is not we'll deserved.
| Perhaps you may hear our Gus
toners speak of the tailor made
clothing we carry, the work Of
Stein, Block & Co., wholesale
tailors. There is so much in them
to talk about it can't be half told

from this district.
lie shOnld receive the nomination
unanimously. There should be no
dissenting voice in the convention.
His services to the Democratic party
arc known Of all men. No man 10
North Carolipa has done as much
work for the party as be has, He
has never refused his services TO the
party. There has never been any
hesitation on his part, There has
been 10 middle ground with him The
enemy have known his position at
all times, and wherever they haye
been strongest, there is where his
blows have fallen thiCkest and heav>
lest.
In the campaign of 1888, at the
time when the fortunes Of the Demo
cratic party were trembling in the
balance; when DOckery was making
the mountains ring with telling blows
against ue, no man Ia sill North Carr
DINA could be found willing to fol-
low him save Mr.. kitchin.
1t Is needless to say there was no
enthusiasm and no interest and no
life in the campaign Of that year un-
| til Mr.. kitchin met and vanQujshed
Dockery 10 his own stronghold.
| Bat, from the time he first met
| Dockery at Taylorsville aud the

erers go" were flashed over the State
bv the correspondent Of tho NeJcS 4
Observer, the whole State was alive
with hope, courage and determine
ton. The press then was ablaze
with the exploits Of Mr.. kitchin IN
tits unparalleled campaign. Will
it be silent now?
Mi. Kitchin first made reputation
as q campaign of consummate ability
in 1872 in his canvass with Judge
Thomas. We next find him in tie
mountains in 1876 dong hard work
fot Vance and Democracy. We mex
find him redeeming this district
Then as Elector-at-Iarge in the
Cleveland campaign. la all of these
campaigns, he made briiliant,thriIling
a I'd powerful speeches.
No man In North Carolina, save
| Ieb Vance. is his equal on the stqmr
before the people,
We think Mr.. Kitchin should bt
nominated because his services de
serve recognition at the hands Of the
party-because be would make al
able and courageous represen tatiye-
because his political principles anC
convictions have been such and ar.
such that they will cause him to ad

COTTON COVERS ITSELF

The papers row announce that
Mr. VIM. +. Jackson, OF AugQsts,
Ca, has perfected machinery for the
manufacture of cotton bagging from
the bark of cotton stalks.
TIE readers Of THE DEMOCRAT
will remember that on May ?. 1892,
under the heading "WIll not Cotton
Cover it8elf2," We sal! editoriany
the following:
There is q car7ent report now that
the Ju:e Trusts are combining with
stronger forces than ever.
The practical question is, what can
the cotton producer do to shake oil
his dependence upon the jute manu-
facturers? 1t has occurred 10 Us
that the cotton stalks can be made
10 furnish matcrisI for covering the
cotton. The cotton stalk has
strong bark covering; and The Dem
OCEAT is Of the opinion that some
machinery may be put into opera
ton whereby the bark Of the cotton
stalk can be turned into suitable
fabric for a bagging to cover the cot
ton. If this can be done, the qQes-
ton will be settled.

that these forms OF oppression are
not prohibited by law. There are no
people on earth who have greater
reverence for law than the farmers
of these United States, bat they
know that no tyranny is so dpgrad-
