The Establishments Which News
Readers Should Patronize.
SOME VERY RARE BARGAINS.
News Advertisers Appreciate n Good
Thing and They Know the Best sfedi-
um Through Which They Can Reach
the Popular Eye and Purse.

Shepard & Company's mammoth es-
tablishment Is thronged all day long
with Christmas shoppers who realize the
saving made possible by trading at this
place. They are we'll aware that the
stock OF holiday goods is complete aud
that their wants will be supplied by APP
plcation at some department. OF the big
establishment. Every article placed on
the counters Is with direct reference TO
gifts aud as one passes through the aisles
OF the store suggestions for appropriate
presents are found on every side.
The stock OF toys and games Is large
one. Probably the sale OF articles In these
two lines at this season OF the year Is
larger than In any other. Children
always expect toys and games at Christ-
mas aud Shepard a. Company's store Is
the place to buy them.
The doll department should not be for

pointed il she does not havea Maria Ann,

doll department is located at the head OF

ment is an attractive one. 3,

invited to go and look at the stock and no
one is importuned to purchase.
Neckties make good Christmas presents.
II would be hard work to find an assort-
ment as good as Shepard 81 Company's
in this line.
OF course the dress goods department
should not be overlooked. First class
patterns may be obtained at as low
price as can be found anywhere.

a CHANGE NEEDED.


Some % The BIots Upon the Republican
Administration.
There are just one hundred reasons
for a change in the presidency, but We
will mention only few Of them here.
In the first place, the president has
frequently degraded the civil service
and has openly violated the law rcgu-
lating appointments. Even Mr.. Reid
must know that the nomination made
az Minneapolis was made by the great
army Of oiiiccholdcrs. Mr.. Harrison
has used official patronage as personal
perquisitc. lie has used II not more TO
secure party victory than 70 obtain q
pcrscnsl triumph. n pursuance Of a
bargain he goes 80 far that even a re-
publican senate has 20 call halt and

sons for change. Corporal Tanner

leyIsm.


What is the present contention Of the
democratic party regarding revenue
legislation?
1t is exactly what Il was in 1857.
when Mr.. Cleveland then president Of
the United States through the votes Of
the democratic party and now again its
candidate for the presidency. declared
that "Our present tariff laws. the vi
cious. inequitable, and illogical source
Of unnecessary taxation. should be at
once revised and amended"
That is the position of the democracy
on this question. Republicans them
selves as long ago as 1882 in the mes
sage of President Arthur 70 the con-
gress Of the United States admitted
that these laws were at least inequita-
bic and demanded reduction Of tariff
taxation. and in 1854 in their national
convention they put It even stronger,
insisting that the inequalities Of the
tariff should be corrected. but they
have gone so far now that they support

his person and estate was appointed.
The care OF the estate has not been q very
onerous burden, bat Jimmy" has proved
himself veritable "Irishman's flea," for
whenever the conservator puts his hand on
him he isn't there. He fits about Denver
like a shadow, never staying at one board
ing place more than week at a time and
utterly oblivious Of board bills. Denver
boarding housekeepers, however, have a
way of finding the man who Is responsible
for the bill, and the conser vator has made
wide and varied acquaintance with these
industrious and long suffering people.
For one entire year after his return to
Denver Jimmy" settled down Co business.
He got an idea that be had an important
suit that might come up at any moment in
the county court, so he started in to attend
the daily ministrations Of justice at the court
house. Every day, rain or shine, warm or
cold, Jimmy" appeared promptly at
O'Clock In the court room, quietly took
seat and remained until noon. At 2 O'clock
In the afternoon he reappeared, and staid
until adjournment. He never spoke to any
one, and never manifested the slightest
emotion. unless some 'early bird" should
happen TO get into his particular seat, and
then his disgust was manifested by pro-
moved over TO let Jimmy" sit down. At
the end of the year Jimmy" appeared to
have come to the conclusion that he was
waiting a good deal OF valuable time In
courts of law, which showed deal Of sense
even il be was crazy. He shook the dust Of
the temple Of justice off his feet. He has
never been IN the court room since.
He never wants any money and is, there
fore, supremely happy. Once in a great
while his conservator can induce him to &C.
cept a new suit OF clothes, but Jimmy"
has developed into a philosopher of the
school Of Diogenes and despises luxury aud
the unervating influences of rich food and
fine raiment.
But no one in this world Is absolutely
happy, though crazy, and Jimmy" has
grievance. he believes he has been wronged
and defrauded aud so he has, for il the
twelve good men and true" who pro-
nounced him sane In 1887 had been sane
enough themselves to see that he was crazy
he would be sane to-day and worth
