WORD
WITH YOU
IN REGARD TO
WRAPS and JACKETS for
LADIES, MISSES, CHILDREN.

We have not the least hesitation in say
ing that We are showing this season the
hnoat and largest lines of Now Wraps.
Jackets and Eewmarkets. ETC., that was
ever shown in Helena, and have marked
them at priees that should, and certainly
will, sell Thorn very rapidly, in spite OF tho
hard times and scarcity OF money.
One among the many rich Novelties we
are showing in this department, 10 the La
dies Long English Homespun Cloth Capes
with Undervcat and Storm Sleeves, for cold
weather protection, High Collar, edged
with Marnbout. and trimmed with Cut jet
Nail Heads. They are pronounced very
handsome by all who have seen Thorn. Be
sides VIC are showing a great variety OF La
dies and Misses Fur Trimmed Rector
Jackets, in beautiful styles and all the most
popular colors. They are being sold very
rapidly at the very low prices we have
placed on them, and we would advise ar
early inspection, before the assortment al
sizes is broken. Parents and GUARDIAN
that are interested in Cloaks for Children
now at the commencement of school ant
the cold season, should be particularly in
terested in our Cloak department. We arr
offering some very rare bargains in Chill
dren's Cloaks this week, and are selling
them for very much less than you can bu,
them for later in the season.

ne interest alone u a small class OF the
community engaged in manufacturing in
duatriss. The principle of the Mckinley
bill rests upon the exclusion of foreign in
dustriss and segregation of the commercial
interests Of this country from that OF other
nations. What will the farmers do this
year il they are limited in the
sales Of their surplus products TO
tie home market Where would
they ind purchasers for 500, 100000 Of sur
plus products. This best illustrates the ne
cessity of commercial intercourse between
nations, and tho doctrine that we should
buy from others what we need by eqchang-
ing the products of our own land. On this
great question which affects the interests of
every citizen ths democratic party ia abso-
lutely united, and is gaining assistance for
the interests of the great mass of people
daily. The fight should be pushed viRor-
ously."
II am surprised that more attention has
not been given in the north and the west to

s~ylvania some years prior to the war. Gov.
Black is a native of Somerset county, Penn
sylvania. In l8 1872, when The present governor,
Robt. Il. Pattison was first elected gov
ernor, Mr.. Black was elected lieutenant
governor. In 1886 he was the candidate OF
the democratic party for governor OF Penn
sylvania, but was defeated by Beaver. In
1890 he was again chosen by the democrats
for the second place on the state ticket of
the keystone state. He has been alife-long
democrat and always active in the councils
of his party. He is the present president
of the National Association of Democratic
clubs, in which he takes great interest; in
fact, he was one of the promoters OF the
organization %throughout the union. n

more than a year rast he has had full
charge of the New York Worlds Washing
