Dissolved Owing TO Politics.
Detroit, Mich, Aug. 20.-1he law firm
of Dickinson, Thurber * Stevenson. which
Ia Comprised OF Hon. Don NJ. Dickinson
Henry 7. 1hurber, private secretary to
President Cleveland, and Elliott t. Steven
son, late chairman OF the Democratic State
central committee, has dissolved ON account
OF political differences, which nave arisen
between Mcssrs. Dickinson AM Stevenson
since the Chicago convention.
In the Chicago convention sir. Steven
son posed as the mouthpece OF Mr.. Dick
inson, who represented the aduI:iisj ri ticn.
Stevenson was cha airman of the Michigan
delegation and also chairman OF he State
central Cor.mittee. He declared he would
resign from the latter position. not ON ac-
count of the platform, but because Of the
treatment OF the Michigan delegation in
the convention.
Mr.. SteN e:.son did resign, Lut his resig-
nation was not accepted, which was con-
sidered purely personal victory. rather
than one for gold or the administration.
Later Mr.. Stevenson resigned again and
made way Tor Mr.. Fred A. Baker, a Iabid
silver advocate, retaining place on the
committee. however. Mr.. Stevenson has
been taking an active part in the campaign
in the interests of Bryan and Sewall.
This action on the part OF Stevenson so
iDcensed Mr.. Dickinson that the relations
between the members of the firm became
greatly strained. Articles of dissolution
Of the firm were signed Saturday.
Mr.. Tburber will remain with Dickinson
This law firm probably had Il la rger revenue
than any ether similar firm in the State.
Mr.. Stevenson. beside being one OF the most
conspicuous Democrats in Michigan, is con-
sidered a lawyer OF great ability. He came
here from Port Huron a few years ago to
become the Junior partner of the firm and
immediately took high rank among the
lawyers of Detroit.

JUST WHAT :
Ne EXPECTED

That extra IS per cent. discount last
week hunted up the judcious buyers and
there was a decided movement in our
stock.
Now, it was not the PRICES alone
that sold these goods, it was the factor
that caused buyers to look at them, to
examine into the durability and finish,
when that was done, then the prices did
the rest.
We claim that we are always IS per
cent. lower than any other house in Homo
lulu. Don't take our word for it; convince
yourself by examining our STOCK and
PRICES. You will find our stock the
LARGEST and as we say our prices the
LOWEST.
