self as armers' Alliance candidate for the
seat IN Congress made vacant by the death of
General W. II. f. Lee and meeting in this

the Alexandria Opera House. at which Hon.
jerry Simpson and other Alliance lights are
expected TO be present.
Mr. Turner states that his candidacy is
announced at the request Of many friends in
the Alliance and out Of il. While he believes
that the rights OF property should be guarded.
there are other rights more sacred; that while
1t Is the right of wealth that a debt should be

Which II was contracted. IL is the right Of

these later rights IN the administration of
our government for the last thirty years have
been disregarded that the Government has
Deen one OF corporations and not one of the

Mr.. Turner has issued an address IN the
voters of the Eighth congressional district
OF Virginia and in it be says: In Congress

It is best that some Of the most
regulations in a graded
should be uniform. and the
principal il usually given the power
to make them and also to abolish
them when found to be bad. This
does not signify that he should often
make such regulations against the
wishes Of the teachers, nor should
he, without quite a considerable
amount Of complaint, abolish a rule
which all the teachers wish to en-
force in their rooms, especially when
It effects his room least Of all. That
a principal allows rule to stand for
. time does not always mean that it
originated with him,or that it meets
his approval in all respects.

We earnestly invite your attention to what we
are going to say and do. We do not divide our
time but give it all to the interest of our business,
and what will be our business will be to your in
terest. Our whole life has been III this business;
we have familiarized ourselves as to latest styles,
patterns and colors now in use. Our store was
never so crowded before with both goods and Gus
toners, and we invite every one to call and look
them over, whether you buy or not. We bought
this stock with one particular aim-that there
should be none better. and an absolute certainty
that no better prices shall be offered you any
where, because we can sell and do sell these goods
as close as it is possible that they should be sold.
You will get full value for every dollar you in
vest. These little savings here and there in adj
dition to the quality of the goods certainly makes
the Palace Store a profitable place for you to trade.
We take a great pride in our dress goods and
trimmings department.; we have one room devot-
ed entirely to ready-made clothing, hats and caps,
boots and shoes. No eastern house can fit you
up nicer nor better than we can. Bear in mind
that we sell at one price and that the lowest.
Thanking you for past favors, etc.

A course Of study will not makea
scholar, and the fact that two schools
have curricula very much alike is
NOT always evidence that their work
10 equal. Our country schools have
courses ofstudy leading to our ninth
grades here, but we have not re.
ceived a pupil from the country yet
who can do the work Of that grade.
We believe that in some districts
where teachers Of good experience
and ability have been allowed to re-
main several terms, there are pupils
who could do the ninth grade work.
We would like to see such work
done in all Of the country schools,
a. it would be . help to both coun-
try and city schools. Such unity in
our country should Be realized. A
country course has been constructed
which il supposed to do all work to
the ninth grade, but the course Of
study must be properly taught in
order 10 bring results.
