THE charges against Minister Egan are
at last becoming definite. They were
suppressed heretofore by both interested
parties. BE is now charged with specu-
lating in nitrate mines and using his Off
eial position to further his private inter
ests, and his son vas occupying an official
position under the Balmaceds govern
ment. To another man not given to in
trigue and more scrupulous in his politi
cal and private conduct, this would moi
be regarded as conclusive Of his partialit,
for the Bslmaeeda party, but it hai
made Egan unacceptable to the Congress
sionalists.

WRONG THOUGH CONCEALED.

The people Of Sussex and of no other
section Of the United States pay tax to
keep any factory running. The only
tax the people pay is when they take
money out Of their pocket and buy an
article manufactured in a foreign
country, upon which a duty has been
levied, in preference to buying that
article at home with no duty imposed.
Certainly we would not advocate a tax
upon the people OF Sussex to run Treats
factories but IL q foreign firm were
manufacturing the same articles, and

Of Sussex would buy it in preference to

Shoes are all upset to-day
and the Department will be in
some confusion for days to
come while the moving goes
on to better, brighter, wider
quarters across the aisle. To
many persons it looked as if
our Shoe business could not be
improved upon, but we knew
better, and you shall see what
our experience teaches us when
you find our ideas developed in
the new department on the
East of Main Aisle instead of
on the West.
Shoes are a study; leather is
a study and the shaping and
sewing are studies. We believe
we are always improving on
past endeavors. We shall now
improve on the comforts and
conveniences for our custo-
mers when they are looking or
buying. If buyers ever keep
a Shoe that fails under any fair
usage they have no one to
blame but themselves. We sell
only good Shoes, and if there
are any flaws we want the
manufacturers to know that
they have not given us what
we paid for, and our customers
will do us a favor when they
bring back imperfect Shoes.

In response to my query he replied;

prevent Bailey from robbing the COMPANY

The latest heard from Wytheville is 70
