your advantage to trade with us. Let
us, in few words, prove this asser-
ton.
BUYING LARGELY FOR CASH for
our seven California stores, if the
manufacturers have any especial adj
vantageS TO offer, or If they find them
selves in financial difficulties, we are
the ones they make the offer to in
preference to the man who takes four
months time in which to pay for his
goods. It's cash they want and to
cash they make special concessions.
ADVANTAGES TO YoU-our fire.
Quent Immense cash purchases
have placed dry-goo0S at your dis
posal for less money than you ever
bought for before.
SELLING FOR CASH we do not
have to keep set of accounts with our

cal force, and we don't have 10 add to
our profits i'm order to make in
tereSt on outstanding money. Giving
no discounts whatever, all goods are
marked at the lowest living prices and
all customers are treated alike. Again,
a customer buying for cash is not apt
to be as eXtraYagant in expenditure as
If running an account.

on expense of running business is
your saving i'm cost of goods. Our
cash system curtaiiS your expendi-
ture. Therefore, as you must trade

Then the nomination of candidates for
governor began. George X. Hit nomi-
mated John Boyd Thacher, and was fol-
lowed by Reynolds, of Allegheny county,
who proved to have a scheme that effect
ually shut off all other nominations fer
the head of the ticket. In a short-very
short-speech he named David Bennett
Hill. He couldn't have made long one,
unless he had reserved the name to the
last. For as soon as it was uttered his
voice was drowned in the shout of ap-
proval that went up.
The convention literally went wild. Hill
tried to stem the storm by declining
when he could get a chance to make him
self heard, but it was no use. The shout
"Hiu" ~Hill" went up in waves of sound
that made the rafters creak.
II cannot accept the Office you offer to
me-" shouted the chairman. But he
might as we'll have talked to the wind.

nomination when another candidate

unexpected one. Hits speech nom mating
John Boyd Thacher had been received with
enthusiasm. Delegates looked at one
another and expected that the nominal ion
would be made by reclamation. Even
Senator Hill himself, withethe gavel in
hand, had ordered the roll to be called,
and breathed a sigh of relief, evidently
believing the crisis had passed.
But slight built man from Allegheny

councils OF that party, threw fire brand

OAKLAND, Gala, Sept. PIT. j. Roberts.
president of the American Railway Union,
recently wrote Mrs. Leland Stanford in
behalf of the strikers who had been re-
duced to restitution on account Of their
inability to secure work. He has received

In reply, regretting that it is not in her
power to relieve the distressed strikers.
She expresses her obligation" to the
gentlemen who escorted her from the
mountains to Oakland
She says she sympathizes with the
strikers, whom she knows were led away
by excitement and did not expect to do
the company wrong. Mrs. Stanford says
she has made application to the railroad
officers 10 replace the men dismissed for
conduct during the strike. but regrets
that her entreaties have been ignored.
She hopes that in time the men will be
restored to their places, and promises to
continue her influence in their behalf.
