There are many kinds of
cut glass sold, and to the or
binary purchaser, one make
is as good as another. The
value of the pieces depends,
of course, on the cutting. If
the edges are sharp, you may
depend upon it that the quail
ity is good.
Among all the makes of
cut glass in the United States,
but one firm sells enough to
warrant their having a ware
room in New York. Every
one in the States knows
which firm that is--Dorflin-
ger, In the large cities, from
Boston, south to Richmond
and west to Denver, the pur-
chaser puts but one cut glass
question to a salesman, lis
it Dorflinger'S?" The make
is so we'll known that the
name sells it. Our stock in
this line is entirely from the
Dorfinger factory - other
dealers think it is the best,
the buyers think it the best,
then why should not we?
Other makes may be as good,
they are certainly no better.
Cut glass has been looked
upon as essentially a luxury
of the wealthy class, but our
cut glass at cut prices, both
cut, makes it possible for the
middle class to own pieces
of various sizes and shapes.
We have also a desire to
call your attention to a stock
of silver ware, genuine Sterl-
ing, that eXcelS most any
thing of the kind ever shown
here. We sell Sterling sill
yer napkin rings for $I.5o.

An Objection.

Many of the H. A. A. G. boys are de-
cidedly against having bicycle races
on the 18th of January, their regular
field day. They think if there are to
be athletic sports on that day there
should be no disturbing element, such
as bicycle races, introduced to detract
from the interest of the former. If
bicycle events are wanted, they should
be given a separate day of their own.

allism prevails. This endeayor to mis-
lead the workers of tAe United States on
,he question Of wages i: il keeping Win
tie policy pursued by me supporters of
Mckinley on all other issues.
Way should the inquiry as to wages
be confined to Mexico AMI China? Does
any American believe that elmer the
Chinaman or the Mexican will be paid
as much for his labor in any country rs
will the American? Why is not the IN

APPEAL TO NATIONALITY.

The Hanna organs are at their old
tricks-appealing to the pr5judices OF
nationality to further their cause.
When tariff was the main issue no
name was too bad for England, no name
too good for Ireland.
Now things are different. 1t will not
do to say anything against England. On
the contrary, she is most progressive
nation. blessed with noble, generous and
able statesmen. The Republican party
loves her. even if the love is not return
ed. Each worships a common object
gold.
The Germans ere now the voters upon
whom the party seems 10 rely with
greatest confidence. A New York Re
publican organ says that in the North
west they are sure 10 vote for Mckinley;
that. on the other hand, the Swedes are
going 10 vote for Bryan. Thus the par
ty that speaks with so much indignation
OF dividing class against class Is aV-
tempting to divide nationality against
nationality in a country where bu; one
nationality should be known.
Realizing that its cause is not based
on justice, it appeals for its vindicaiion
to prejudice. It will find that it is mis-
taken. Political convictions are not
founded on origin of birth.
So far as our German citizens are con-
cerned tais trick will no. work. The
foremost German in the world sends TINS
greeting across the water:

Mckinley OIL Silver in 1891.

On the 18th OF February, 1891 he thus
expressed himself on the subject in a
speech at Toledo:
During al! of Grover Cleveland's
years at the head of the government he
was dishonoring one of our precious
metals, one of our own great products,
degrading silver and raising the price
OF gold. He endeavOred even before MS
Inauguration to Office to stop the coin
age CT silver dollars, aud afterward and
70 the end Of his administration persist
emily used his power to that end He
was determined to contract the circu-
iating medium and 20 demonet.za one Of
the coins Of commerce, limit the volume
of money among the people, make money
scarce, and, therefore, dear He would
have increased the value of money and
diminished the value Of everything
else"
