CHEAP GOODS!
 VS., CHEAP PRICES j!

The above theme leads naturally up to the question of quality as viewed from the dealers standpoint. We are thoroughly in earnest in our insistance on the importance of offering Only Re- liable Goods. It is our belief that price is low enough to redeem an unssrviceable or shoddy ar ticle from the malediction which goes with it Right here is where some furniture dealers make their mistake, in handling goods known to be of inferior quality simply because they can buy them little cheaper than the better grade, and as these dealers argue, will sell just as we'll. Maybe they will sell just as well the first time, but if when taken home they do not give the ser- vice expected. those goods will be constant stand ing advertisements against sellers. Everybody likes Cheap Prices," but nobody likes ''Cheap Goods" We don't have Cheap Goods" but our prices are Cheap Prices" We have just receiy- ed good fresh line of Spring Samples of Carpets, Moquettes, Body Brussels, Extra Super Tapestry Brussels with borders to match, c Extra Super t-2 wool, China and Japan Mating, Foreign and Domestic Rugs.

We find there is often more virtue in single half honr spent in looking oyer our stock, examining goods, comparing prices and sizing us up' generally than any amount of type talk. We think we can safely promise to convince the most skeptioal buyers, we have bar gains for them if they will come and see us Yours Respectfully

married women" The poor girls have
no chance against the wiles of these ex-
perlenced and desperate danes. We
are told by Clemens of Alexandria that
Theano the Pythagorean, made such
progress in philosophy, that to him
VINO looked intently at her, and said:
Your arm is beautiful" she answered
Yes, but it is not public" But the
snamelessness'of modern fashion com
nnands married women to expose tothe
public eye, not their arms alone, but
all their voluptuous and matured
cnarms, and they ogle and firt. dance
ana Toll aboutin a half naked condition.
NO doubt many obey ~innocently, as
some OF the Adamites did when abso-
IuGe nudity was demanded from all
tnelr members when they met for
worship. The laws of fashion, as those
OF religion, are omnipotent over their
VoGarles. Buthow can raw and innocent
girls compete with the t-recklessness of
tnese experienced beauties, and at the
same time preserve their reputation9
And these are the same who dare tell
a modest and respectable girl attached
TO n man only that it is a disgrace"
to have a child, though it be the off
spring of pure and honest love. These,
too, are the society hacks, well known
as st. Paul's, who condemn thousands
OF better women to ''single -blessedness,
80 that at last these are urged to cry in
the anguish of their lonely hearts,
"Why was I such a fool as to let So
ciety make me childless9" The proverb
says prevention is better than cure.
We profoundly respect the good wo.
men and benevolent ladies who labor
to raise the fallen, but there would be
less need of rescue homes were altman
ried women honest, and widows de
TERED from re marrying. Heart hunger
would be then comparatively unknown,
for leach would have her own again.
Philosophers tell us that love refneE
mankind. Rescue societies tell us thai

soured and withered old maids, who

DEMANDS ADOPTED
BY the Farmers Alliance and Industrial

ruary 3, 1906.

fuafy o 1895.
Finance-We demand a national
currency, safe, sound and flexible,

FARM HORSES.

Good working teams and the most
approved farm machinery are great
factors in successful husbandry, and no
sagacious cultivator will fail to have
the best he can afford. And of these
essential items the best are always the
cheapest in the long run, for no farmer
can do good work with weak, poorly
conditioned teams, or old, worn out i'm
plements. The motive power of the
farm ought to be put in frst-class order
for heavy labor. Horses and oxen that
have been idle or had little work
through the winter, will be soft, and
they should nov receive the extra care
and feeding necessary to get them
ready for the campaign. It is not good
policy to wait until a few weeks before
planting and then try to rush theminto
shape by heavy feeding on grain rations.
Animals treated in this way will never
be in proper condition to do the work
required of them.

necessary expenses of the governments
economically and honestly admins
tered.
+ We demand that postal savinOs
banks be established by the govern
ment for the safe deposit of the earn
ings of the people and to facilitate ex-
changes.
/ Land-The land, including all the
natural resources of wealth, is the
heritage of all the people and should
hot be monopOliZed for speculative pur-
poses and alien ownership of land
should be prohibited. ALI lands now
held by railroads and other corpora
lions in excess of their actual needs,
and lands now owned by aliens, should
now be reclaimed by the government
and sold for actual settlers only.
Observation-Disclosures be-
ing q means of exchange and a public
necessity, the government should own
and operate just enough of the com
peting railroad lines of the country to
efectually give the Government full
control of the regulation of passenger
fares and freight rates.
o.. The telegraph and telephone, like
the postofhce system, being a necessity
for the transmission of intelligence,
should be owned and operated by the
government in the interest of the peo-
pie.
ELECTION OF UNITED STATES SENATORS.
We demand the election of United
States Senators by a direct vote of the
people. That each State shall be di-
vided into two districts of nearly equal
voting population, and that a Senator
from each shall be elected by a direct
vote of the people of the district.
