Kelly Says

If the charter committee had the power to elect the mayor and appoint the different officers of the city. town and school their scheme for running municipal government is perfectly proper. But with the present system of ward caucuses and the influence of the ward heeler, that one man power is a dangerous thing.
 The new city charter fails to show where it has reduced the expenses of running the town, city and school and as an act of economy it isa failure. To the contrary, 1t has increased the salary of every man connected with the new city government from 10 to 100 per cent, and will add halt a dozen or more new office holders that the people will he obliged to support as long as they live. It wlll increase the ex- penses at least slO.OOO . year and gives such a sweeping power to the incoming mayor that if his financial abilities should be anything like some of the mayors of the past the taxpayers of the city would wish they were never born. It deprives c man of the right to build on his own land accordink to his own wishes; it deprlyes the fireman of using his franchise as he pleases; it depriyes the right of c liquor seller to become e member of the city boards. These articles alone are un-Amer- ican, unconstitutional and unwise. If the common council recommend this new charter they wlll regret their judgment when it Is too late. Let rs keep away from one man power as long as vs can.

The greater part of our Spring importa- tions of Table Damask. Napkins. Towels and Napery is to hand. and will go on sale Friday morning, Irish, Scotch and Ger man manufacturers are represented, and you will find no such Sameness of patterns as characterize ordinary Linen stocks. New and unique designs are the leading feature. unless it be that low prices tie for first honors.
 Irish and Scotch goods show most style and delicacy of finish; but in medium grades. for general use. We recommend German makes. They show quality and weight. and recent shipments reveal a marked improvement in style and finish.
 The medium and better qualities you can have Damask and Napkins match.
 Another speciality of the stock is our line of Pattern Cloths, 2 to yards in length. and ? to 2a yards in width, which we sell by the yard at the same prices ss piece goods of corresponding quality. It is a decided advantage to have a cloth with border all round if it doesn't cost more than yard goods, These also have Napkins to match.
 Recent market reports say that linens are going to be sensibly dearer," the moral of which is. buy now

WAS MIR. BUTLER INvITEDs

So Rnmor SAYS, But Mr.. Ed. Chamber
Smith States That he Has Never
Asked Butler to Sign the Silver
e"Can.''
Was Mr.. Butler invited to sign the
"call' for the silver convention which is
to assemble here September 25th2
A story to this effect came yesterday
from thoroughly authentic source, and
coming from such a source it seemed to
be true.
While the invitation is to all men of
the silver persuasion, the first 'calls"
were understood to be sent only to Dem
ocrats. And this was TO be non parti-
IAN silver convention called by the Dem
ocrats who believed in free silver. The
call issued Friday, setting the date Of
the convention, was signed onl. by Dem
ocrats.
But this story that the Populist Sena-
tor had been asked to put his name to
the document came very straight.
Mr.. Ed Chambers Smith, the father Of
the convention, was seen by a NEWS AND
OBSERVER man last night. After the
rumor had been told him, he said: II
the call, and do not know that he was ever
asked to dos by anyone. There were a
number of these calls printed, but have
never sent them to any but Democrats.
Mr.. Butler was here when that call was
issued and would doubtless have signed
it, had he been asked to sign it."
Senator Butler himself in an interview
printed few days ago said that he en-
dorsed the convention, and had he been
so requested would have signed the call.
"What is Senator Buffers view of this
convention p was asked Mr.. Hal Aver,
editor of the Caucasian.
''In an interview published short
while ago." said Mr.. Aver, Senator
Butler expressed bis approval of the con-
vention and said he expected to be pres
ent. think be would have signed the
call, had he been asked to do so. as for
myself | expfc5 to attend the conven-
ton, because believe in free silver"
There have been rumors, and some OF
them have appeared in print, that the
coming silver convention would endorse
a certain candidate for governor, who
was denominated as "broad minded
man." and launch non partizan move
ment, which this man was to head
Mr.. Smith said yesterday: II have
never heard from anybody connected in
any way with the movement, any
mention in any Way, shape or form, Of
the possibility or probability Of endors
ing or nominating any man of any party
for any Office"
