Shoes ARE A NECESSITY.

We are closing several lots of johnson & Co
waterproof, flexible inner soles at $2.15, re-
duced from 2.65, 2.9O, 800 and 3.25. The
reason for this is, we are dropping out the
above styles from our fall line. We con-
slider them the most satisfactory shoe we
have ever handled, and the advantages
gained by purchasing this make of shoes.
lst the inner sole being water proof, the
dampness can not reach the foot through
the sole. 2nd. the increase of wear gained

fore us recVnmends his nomina-
tion on the ground that he, more
than any other so far mentioned,
combines in himself all the ele-
ments Of strength. 1t Is rightly
urged that in spite of his youth he
possesses the knowledge and abil-
ity rcquired; that he enjoys an en-
tensive acquaintance throughout
the state, and that the liberal ele-
ment which made its appearance
in the election two years ago would
have II candidate in Mr.. Lentz
whom it could support uncondi-
tionally.
ave doubt whether Mr.. Lentz
thinks of appearing as u candidate
for the gubernatorial office, but we
believe that he is too good a Dem
ocrat to decline the nomination If
1t were offered him. 1t is of great
at any rate, that II man
be nominated for governor VIII 10
can carry the united strength not
only of his own party but draw al
so far as possible the liberal Re-
publican element"

ONE of the invincible indestruct-
able war vessels of the United
States has met the enemy, in the
form of an ordinary fishing steam
er, and it required but two shots
from the guns of the latter to dis
able the "Man of War" If the
news is correct we would like to
be informed as to the advantage
of the great improvements, in the
construction of wars ships, of re-
cent years. The story is told in the
New York Herald.
New York, July 1S.-A special
to the Herald from Port Townsend,
Washington, says: News comes
from Behring sea that the Hawai-
ian steamer Alexandria, a seal
poacher, fired upon and disabled
the United States man-of-war Mo-
hican in Behring sea June 25. The
Mohican interrupted the Alexand-
ria raiding the rookeries and sig
nailed to her to lay-to which was
ignored. Then she fired couple
of shots across the bow of the Alex
andria. The latter put on all steam
returned the fire with six pound.
er, striking the Mohican amid
ship and disabling her machinery.
The Alexandria escaped. The lat
ter sailed from San Francisco last
April, well armed with crew of
nearly a hundred men, under com
mand of one of the Mclean broth
ers who became notorious a few
years ago for raiding Russian and
Japanese sealing rookeries.

WILD WESTERN WINDS.

They held II silver convention,
the other day, in Denver, Col, at
which some things were said that
had as well been left unsaid.
For instance the Republican sill
yer miner and smelter, e. r.. Hold
en-, of Denver, whose wild "west-
ern empire" despatch so disgusted
sensible friends of silver in his
own town that he found it advis-
able to try to explain it away,
broke loose again at the meeting.
Shaking his fist he said that 'sif
this crisis continues all institu-
tions west of the Mississippi river
will fail and when men become
hungry they become insensible to
reason. Then l am ready to act"
What the Republican E. r.. Hold
en- proposes to do in that event he
left his hearers to infer from the
violent shaking of his fist and they
yelled approval.
After the applause had died a.
way in an echo, the Populist
Governor Waite took up the wild
refrain and delivered himself of a
fiery speech.
He is reported as saying that
"the time may come for another
appeal to arms and the God of
Hosts and when we have Won that
battle-as we will if war is forced
upon us-we will send to Halifax
a far greater army of British Tor
les according to our population
than our fathers sent there after
the revolutionary war;"
This was also applauded which
gave the Governor courage to con-
tinue in the following strain:
"Who is Grover Cleveland ? And
who is Benjamin Harrison? And
who are their supporters in Wall
street or in Denver, that in this
nineteenth century they dare to
assume to draw into poverty and
exile half million of American
freemen No banker, no broker,
no usurer, and least of all, no ped
ding politician, has it in his power
to compromise this tremendous
issue. War has begun; it is the
same war which must always be
raised against oppression to pre-
serve the Liberties of man. Our
weapons are argument and the
ballot, q free ballot and fair
