SOUTH DAKOTA CONGRESSMAN.
He Has Good Many Suggestions to Offer
to the Republican Party.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Congressman
Pickler of South Dakota, ls back from the
meeting of the national farmers alliance
in Florida, and he has good many sug-
gestions to offer the republican party, in
order that it may win back the support of
the majority of voters of the farmers
party. He said today:
"The republican party should take up
the money question this session. The first
and only thing to do is to pass the free
coinage bill. Even that will not put
money enough in circulation, and
some other plan for initiation should be
considered. 1t is evident that we have
got to put more money in circulation to
prevent financial disturbances in the
western states. While am not welded
to the sub-treasury scheme, it is evident
that this or some similar plan must be
adopted. If the republicans do not pass
the coinage bill this session, the demo-
Gratis are sure to do it next, and, In ad-
dition, will adopt some method of getting
more money afioat. 1t can be seen that
It behooves the republican party to give
these matters fair consideration. If this
is not done, I do not see how the party
can win in the coming campaign"

the REQUESTS OF TWO uILLIoNAIRES.

TACOMA, Wash, Dec 7.-Engineers of
the Great Northern railroad have been
taking soundings in the Columbia river
for some time past at point between
Rainier and Cedar Landing, and have
been running lines on both sides Of the
river. This has occasioned considerable
speculation as to the point where the
Great Northern will cross the big stream.
1t is probable that the bridge will be
built at Rainier. The Columbia at that
point is narrower than at any other point
between Astoria and st. Helens, and the
adjacent country IS of such character
as to make it easy to get down to the
river from either side. The pass for the
road through the Cascades is said to have
been decided upon, and that the road will
go through pass near Sultan, also at fif-
teen miles south of Cady Pass

WHAT'S
WHAT'S
In a Name ? {?

Shakespeare says, "A rose with
out name woul smell as sweet" :"
nevertheless, Just at the dawn of
this last decade of the nineteen
century, in the year of grace 1890,
there Is quite good deal in a
name.
A clothier without a 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
Price 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 clothier 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 value to you. 1t
specifies 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.
The fit, the fabric, the fashion,
that extreme 'inesse of finish
you can't find in other makes,
When we call their suits tailor
made, we mean every suit is made
as much by hand as possible, no
machine button holes or flimsily
sewed on buttons, but enough said.
The name Stein, Block & Co.,
wholesale tailors, attached to ali
their work, speaks for itself.
Our fall goods are coming in.
We are receiving the best goods of
every kind in our line that can be
found.
The latest styles in hats, neck
wear and handkerchiefs continu-
ally in stock.
Shirts in quality, style, pattern,
workmanship and prices that will
suit you.
While we carry the best goods
to be obtained. we also carry an
immense stock Of goods to suit all
kinds Of trade. We do not carry
the cheapest grades, but will soil
you good goods at prices that will
surprise you !; cheaper than the
cheapest grades can be bought
elsewhere. 1t will be to your in
terest to see our stock. Step in
when you can. Well be glad to
see you whether you purchase or
not.
If you cannot come yourself send
your order and it will receive i'm
mediate attention. Don't forget
that we guarantee the price of
every thing we sell. Yours re-
spectfully,
