The Arkansas Election.
n Great Democratic Victory
Which Points To Bryan's
Election.

Arkansas voted for Governor, Mem.
bers of the Legislature. and all State
and county Offices on Monday. There
were four candidates for Governor in
the contest-Democratic, Republican,
Populist and Prohibition. The Demo
cratic majority over all is nearly 10
900. y telegram from Chicago, on
Wednesday says
Everybody at Democratic National
Headquarters was jubilant to-day over
the election news from Arkansas.
Chairman Jones said Il was entire
ly unprepared for what seems TO have
been the result attribute the ire
mendous majority to the interest in
bimetalism and the free coinage of
silver a large number of Republi.
cans have voted our ticket straight.
Some counties which have always
showed Republican malorities have in
this election given Democratic MAORI
ties. believe also that the great
body of populists have voted the
straight Democratic ticket. The
result in Arkansas shows plainly to
me that all classes of people in the
West and South are interest in this
question as they have never been in
any political question for years. |
look on the result in Arkansas as
merely the forerunner of what may
reasonably he expected throughout
the South and West, just as the result
in Vermont may he considered as an
indication of what may ne expected in
New England Arkansas shows the
way to Bryans certain victory.

That RchObOth Cave.

The mystery of the cave AT Reno
both, or more properly between Re-
hoboth and Lewes, which has been
exciting the authorities of those towns
for some time. has at last been solved.
and a number Of young men from
Wilmington are having Il great deal
of fun out of the trouble which they
caused. These young men were spend
ing the summer at the popular Della
ware resort, and having plenty of
time, dug a cave in the woods near
there. The cave was boarded up on
the inside, aud a table put there 50
that the young men might play cards
ON the inside. hey covered the top
with brush so that the cave could not
be seen. 1t was located in Il woods
and when man was taken there il
was by circuitous route, AMI no one
who went there could ever find the
way again.
Some Of the local authorities saw
the place and at once began an inves-
tigation. II was watched for some
time. and they were unable to tell for
what purpose it had been made. Some
were inclined to think il was an old
Indian cave, but this was not borne
out by the facts Of the case for the
boards aud tables were new. Then
4 they decided that il must he usel by
gang OF counterfeiters. Finally the
story got into the newspapers and
government, officials sent number o
secret service men there to find out
what they could about the alleged
counterteiiers. Finding that they
were so closely watched the young
men could not keep the joke longer
and told the story. Thus the mystery
of Rehoboth was easily solved. MI

Blanket buying time is here.
Nine Scptembers ago we
proved our ability to sell blank
cts cheapest in late summer.
Now it 5 as natural TO iorestall
blanket wants as to have the
coal bins nlIcd. We've made
other understanding innova-
tons in the blanket business
we've introduced honest
blanket selling. Lying labels
have no place under this roof.
"Io-4' on a blanket label was
meant to convey to the pur-
chaser the idea that the blanket
was ten quarters of yard or
90 in. widc-but, alas the
yard stick proved that the la
bel was a misguide. We in
troduced labels that told the
actual sizes in inches-and
we never state blanket sizes
in any other way. We have
no monopoly on inches and
other blanket labels are
marked in inches now, but often
it's the same old "Io-4" fab
rication merely multiplied by
nine.
Blankets we're never so
cheap.
From the best American
blanket understand America
makes the best blankets
we've gathered such blanket
goodness as will appeal to
every housewife. On a few
lines prices are the same as
those quoted just a year ago
when we broke the record
in blanket value-giving, but
many lines are cheaper now
than then. and we've seen to
it that the standard of excel
lence has been raised in every
line of blankets produced to
our order. Fresh. clean, good,
luxuriant bed clothing Stocks
are at their best. Prices are
at their lowest right now.

to be no chance of switching them OIL.
