DRESS GOODS.

The stock of Wool Dress
Goods is the barometer of a
Dry Goods store. 1t indi-
Gates the character of the
entire stock. That's why
I'VE devote so much care and
attention to Wool Goods.
Our assortment would be
prominent in Chicago or
New York. It's more than
prominent in Minnesota; it's
exceptional. There's moth
ing like it outside of our
store, neither in regard to
qualities, quantities and
styles. We know that our
prices are always right.
We are never undersold,
and never will be. And it
stands to reason that our
large trade operations give
us frequent opportunities to
quote prices which cannot
be equaled by any other
house in the Northwestern
trade.

HARROUN's VIEW.
The County Assessor Says tn,
Rich Men Pay Most Taxes.

The County Assessor Says the
Rich Men Pay Most Taxes.
You often hear the expression, The
poor man bears the burden Of taxa
ton remarked County Assessor Har-
roun yesterday. "This remark is often
heard from men supposed to be reason
ably well-informed, and yet the tax
books do not bear out the assertion"
He then went to his books containing a
list of taxable property and the amount
of taxes paid in st. Paul and cleaned
therefrom the following items:
The total valuation of household fur
niture, horses, cattle. sheep, hogs,
wagons, carriages, sewing machines,
watches, clocks, melodeons, organs,
agricultural tools and machinery and
dogs is 81, 6SS,973. The rich people pay
their proportion of this, and besides pay
taxes on other personal property aggre-
eating $685. 56, or nearly seven times
as much. besides their proportion of the
other eighth of the personal property in
the city. Then take the real estate.
The district bounded on the north by
Minnehaha street, on the south by the
river. on the east by Arcade street,
and on the west by Dale street,
and including the territory between
Dale street and the river. embraces the
first six assessment districts of the city.
This territory is taken up almost ex-
clusively by large owners of real estate,
OH which expensive buildinga are To-
Gated, and in it there are but few poor
men owning real estate. The real
estate i'll this territory is assessed at
81, 500, 039. The remaining real estate
in the city is assessed at 49,, 4,OO6. In
this remaining district theae are many
rich men who own real estate, and part
Of it is held by syndicates and corpora
lions.
From these figures continued Mr.
Harroun, you can readily see that the
great bulk of the taxes are paid by the
rich men. 1t is clearly apparent that
they pay the great excess of taxation.
besides bearing their proportion on
property similar to that on which the
poor man pays taxes. There is no poll
tax collected in st. Paul, and, as a mat
ter of fact, thousands of voters pay no
tax at all 4"

GILBERT AS GUIDE.
City Teachers Are Lost in
Their Interpretation Of
Text Book Order.
The Superintendent Comes to
Their Aid in an Explana-
tory Circular.
Parents May Have Books Ex-
changed When New Ones
Are Required.
In No Case Must Teachers I'm
necessarily Harass Poor
People.

The question of text books has been
in state of confusion since the OPEN
ing of the fall school term, owing to the
exchanges required. The teachers them
selves seem at loss to know what is re.
CURED. Supt. Gilbert has issued the
following circular to principals, which
seems to be very explicit:
AS the matter of exchange of text books
and the purchase of new text books is not
yet clearly understood by the principals, the
| following instructions are given:
The smaller arithmetics will be introduced
into the A Third and Fourth grades by ex-
change. Pupils of the A Fourth grade hav-
ing old books will not purchase new ones.
The teachers of this grade will select suitable
examples from the books the pupils have to
carry out the course of study.
The graded school arithmetic will be intro
duced into the fifth grade AZ and 'B, by
exchange. Pupils in the sixth. seventh and
eighth grades will continue to use Fish's No.
arithmetic.
Harper's geography will be introduced into
the "B, sixth class by exchange Pupils
III the "a sixth class, will continue to use
Eclectic. In the "B, seventh class, pupils
possessing no history will purchase either
the Eclectic or Eggleston's at the option of
the principal and teacher. Those pupils hay
ing any reputable history should not DE COM
PEELED TO purchase others.
Harper's readers, first. second and third,
are TO be bought when the purchase of a
new reader by the child is necessary With
regard TO this and with Bregard to the geo.
graphical and historical readers throughout
the course, they are not to be 70 reed upon
unwilling purchasers. When possible, ma
jorty OF the class should have either one of
the Harper's readers Or the geographical or
historical reader mentioned for the grade,
but the purchase of new ones by those who
are willing to buy, and by those who have no
readers will be sufficient.
Let time work these changes. There are no
changes OF text books except these Indicated
here. In the matter OF exchange, all books
in the bona fide possession of parents before
the adoption of the new course of study,
when presented by the children who would
have used them in the schools but for the
change in the courses, will be exchanged
free, whether purchased originally for the
child presenting them or for some older
brother or sister Caution is simply needed
to see that there is no fraud worked Let
especial care be taken to satisfy the honest
parents of children in the schools. That is
more i'm oortant than the matter of a few
books. Either send TO me all dissatisfied
parents, or report to me their cases in full,
and will see that all reasonable grounds for
dissatisfaction are removed.
History and geography is taught in
lower grades of the public schools this
term than has been the custom in the
past,

AN EXPERTS FEES.
The City Railway People Kick at
500 Per Diem.

The judges of the district court have
been importuned to establish a schedule
of fees for expert witnesses. Hereto
fore physicians lave claimed a large
per diem in excess of the usual fee when
called to testify as experts. In the case
of Mrs. Cleveland against The st. Paul
City Railway Company, DR.. Stone was
called as an expert witness by Mrs.
Cleveland. She secured verdict of 81
and costs against the railway company.
DR.. Stone asked $500 day as expert
witness fees. Mr.. Horn, fer the rail
way company, objected to the taxation
OF such per diem in the costs, as he
claims it is excessive, and requested
Judge Egan, before whom the matter
was heard, for ruling on the point.
His honor stated that he would call the
attention of the other judges of the
court to the matter, with view of es-
tablishing rule governing fees in such
cases.
