Eggs and Economics. "

The fact that 500, 900 a month has
been paid the farmers Of Dickinson
county this spring for eggs has made
the matter Of egg protection Of inn
portancc in this section. The Kansas
City journal in discussing the matter
with contemporary makes these
strong points; In an editorial the
Times Of Sunday attempts to rcfute
the arguments Of Kansas contcm-
porary in regard to the effect Of the
Mckinley tariff on eggs as related to
the Kansas producer. The most con-
spicuous feature Of the article Is the
employment Of Democratic present
and absent at the same time' logic
and msstatcments Of facts.
For instance, speaking Of the tax on
eggs in connection with raising reyc-
nue., it says: But this tax doesn't
do that. 1t simply puts the 1900, 600
people Of New York city under tribute

The Kansas City Times squirms
through two columns of fine print in
an attempt to answer the proposition
that n protective tariff increases the
home market for home products. The
Dickinson county farmers who have
been putting 100000 Il month OF
New York money received for eggs
down in their pockets are satisfied to
let well enough alone.

More evidence that Kansas is civ
ilized. The forthcoming report Of
Commissioner Harris of the bureau OF
education will show that Kansas has
the greatest proportion Of her school
population enrolled in the schools Of
any State in the Union, the per cent
being S7.66. The next States In order
are Maine SIP, Iowa S6.33, South
Dakota Sl.0i. The percentage of
New York is 70.43. 1t is u significant
fact that the four States which head
the list are prohibition States and
that New York, a high license State,
is fifth, and is II per cent below Kan
sas and II per cent below South Da-
kota, the lowest prohibition State,
Louisiana, the home of the Louisiana
lottery and the paradise OF the prize
fighters, is the lowest with 1878 pei
cent.

L. Where TO Buy?
=. When to Buy?
3. What to Buy?

Are three questions to which the people
OF DICKINSON county are giving considerable
thought with reference to the commodities
OF life We have few suggestions to make
to enable you to solve the problem as regards
Dry Goods and Groceries,
Man1testly the the best firms with which
to trade are those that employ that wonder
tul power CASH. The firm that buys for
cash and makes thousands OF dollars in dis
counts that the credit-buying firm never get.
The firm that sells for cash CAN and DOES
sell on much smaller margin than the credit
selling firm. We fill both these essential con-
ditions in the conduct of our business Our
goods are bought and paid for SPOT CASH
and sold on the same basis We claim there
fore to give lower prices on all classes of mer-
chandise than other merchants. Are we not
therefore entitled to your consideration when
choosing where to buy?
To the second question we would suggest
that the best time to supply your various
needs in our lines is when the stock is most
complete. Everyone likes a wide variety
from which to select styles. Having Just put
in 100000 Of Seasonable Dry Goods and
fresh Groceries we believe now is good time
what you buy but DO ask for the opportunity
of showing you our entire stock before you
invest dollar in Spring Goods.
| Have you been In to see us since our re-
opening, March 3lst, with an entire new
stock? Well, if you haven't, you have hardly
| been treating your own interests right. We
invite an inspection-we want every pur-
chaser in this county to come in and see us.
We will certainly save you money.

SIDEWALKS.


The old prOverb, "all things come to
him who waits" it would seem is about
to be verified in the matter of better
sidewalks in our city. Never was any
city of the Importance and size Of Lake
Charles as deficient in this respect, and
it affords us pleasure to state that this
blot upon the fair name and fame of our
city is at last to be wiped out. An or.
dinanee has at last been passed by the
council and promulgated by the mayor,
which, if rigidly enforced, will give as
good banquets as are found in our sister
cities. The following is a copy of the
ordinance:
Be it ordained, ETC., LIST. That the
proprietOrs or lessees of all town lots,
when the bitches are being made or will
hereafter be made, are required to put in
(curb the sidewalk witty plank two
inches thick and as wide as the depth OF
of the ditch, such plank to be secured by
substantial stakes, aud TO grade said
sidewalks to conform uniformly to said
CURLING, and to keep them graded and
weeded.
ri. Upon failure OF SAID prOpfletofS or
lessees to put in said planks and stakes
and to grade, ns required by article ! Of
this ordinance, that the constable be
ordered to have the same done at the eX-
pense and cost Of the prOprietOrs or
lessees.
3D., That any person or persons found
driving a vehicle of any kind whatsoever
across the bitches or on the sidewalks,
or any person or persons riding or hitch
ing horses on the sidewalks, will be sub
iect to fine of not less than five, OF
more than twenty-five dollars for each
and every Offense.
4th. That any person or persons racing,
running or driving horses at furious
gait through the streets Of this town will
be subject to fine Of not less than five, or
more than twenty-five dollars for each
and every ohense.
9Th. That this ordinance take effect
from and after its PRONUNCIATION.

THE SHOPPING WoMEN AGAIN.

It viii be remembered that after the
memorable campaign Of 1892, following
the passage Of the Mckinley bill, Sena.
tor Sherman said Of the disaster that
overlook his party, ''tle shopping wo-
men did it, There was much truth in
this. Immediately after the passage Of
the ubiquitous measure the burden Of in
creased prices Of the necessities Of life
were felt, and when the merchant ex-
planned to his fair customers that the in
creased prices were due to the higher
tariff, not only were the women indig-
nant, but also their husbands who had
to foot the bills.
Another tariff bin has been passed
which, instead Of increasing, has lowered
prices fully % per cent, and the people
are already reaping the benefit.
We took occasion to walk down Ryan
street day or two ago and interviewed
some of our leading merchants. We
first visited Mr.. kaufman and interrO-
gated him as to prices. He said with
scarcely an exception goods are lower,
the reduction being more marked in
some lines than others; for example,
crockeryware, glassware and wooden
goods.
"To what do you attribute this, Mr..
KaufmanY'
"To the reduced tariff, of course"
'But does not this apply to foreign
goods only'"
"By 10 means.7 American goods are
lowered IN the same proportion. should
say the reduction is from 20 TO 80 per
cent all around.
We next interviewed Mr.. BluesteiD,
who said that clothing was fully 25 per
cent lower than ever before.
II can sell good, all wool suit of
clothes for eight dollars"
Woolman & Beardsley came next.
Said Mr.. w:
Hardware is cheaper than ever be-
fore"
Without single exception the testi-
mony was that goods were very low.
This reduction OF prices is welcomed by
the people Of small means, who have all
they can do to make ends meet these
hard times, and they are not ignorant of
the fact that for this boon they are in
debted to the democratic party.
The effects of the new tariff are already
being felt, and the women promise to be
as large a factor in the present campaign
as in 1892, and again their influence win
to the benefit of the democratic
party.
