The w. c. L. U. of lola will have a
tent on the Fair grounds next week
where some representative of the
Union will be present all the time to
welcome any who may want to visit
the tent. All who come to the Fair
are cordially invited to call there and
make themselves at home. There
will be chairs for those who want to
rest. literature for those who want to
read, and a place where those who
want to walk around may leave their
outside wraps or other bundles and
have them taken care of free of cost.
The REGISTER was pleased to make
the acquaintance this week of Judge
j. +. Thompson, for many years
judge Of the 22ld district, composed
of Nemaha, Brown and Doniphan
counties, this State, who has come to
lola to go into business with his
nephew, Mr.. Harry Thompson, late
of Terre Haute, Ind. The new firm,
which will be known as Thompson &
Thompson and will occupy the rooms
lately vacated by Miss Reimert above
Stevenson's store, will do general
law and real estate business and we
commend it to the confidence of the
people of the county.
Somebody complained to Supt.
Picken that he and the school board
were keeping all their plans about
the new school building secret and
were not letting the people know
what they proposed to do or why
they were doing it. Whereupon Mr..
Pieken SHRED hall" and spent an
hour explaining in detail all the
plans and giving all the why's and
wherefores, afterwards inviting ques-
tiOns from any one who wanted
farther information. But the Some
hody who had complained about the
secrecy was not there to hear! Which
simply shows that q kicker who
wants to kick can always find some
thing to kick about.

WHEAT VS.. SILVER.


We never knew Johnnie Gilmore,
of the FredOnia Citizen, to drop off
into poetry, but as the following lines
appeared in his paper without credit
we presume he wrote them. And he
needn't be ashamed of them for if
they are not great shakes as poetry,
they hold enough truth to make up
the difference. Don't you think so :?
What makes poor Bryan wipe his eye,
And beat his breast and frequent sigh,
And tell his folks he'd like TO die?
It's wheat.
IT'S silver,
What makes his party friends declare
Their cause is smashed beyond repair.
What makes them so profusely swear?
'Tis wheat,

What makes 1.-The toiling masses all

Who tried to bunko them last fall?
IT'S wheat,
It's silver.
Has he not preached from day to day,
That wheat and silver, come what may,
Like Siamese twins, together stay?
He has,
He has.
Whose price goes up while farmers say,
"Lo, things at last have come our way.
Three cheers for us-hOoray, hoOray?
Whest's price

Whose price, in spite of Bryan's frown.
Goes down and down and down and down
And down and down and down and down

MR.. F.. w. THOMPSON.

Mr.. PRESIDENT; 1t is respectfully
fitting that the topic of "Home Rule"
should be accorded a prominent place
upou the program Of an organization
like yours, whose keynote is the mel
lifluent slogan of the fullest individual
freedom consistent with the national
well being. 1t is no less happy con-
ception that this august assemblage of
Afro-American thinkers should be
called together to do honor to such
an eminent, consistent, and unwaver-
ing advocate of the "Home Rule"
principle as Mr.. w. Calvin Chase. In
season and out of season the distin-
guished guest of this hour has stood
manfully in the forefront of battle and
vigorously contended with voice and
pen for all policies looking toward a
firmer progress for his home commut
nifty and larger life for every clemens s
within its gates. The combination IN
a peculiarly appropriate one and is no
less tribute TO the Segacity OF Its
promoters than to the central figure
himself.

The question is often asked why
Horn is the most popular and cheap
est tailor in the city. That question
is very easy to answer and especially
if you will consider one thing Mr..
Horn in returning from New York in
the Pullman Palace car, where he
has been to superintend his new stock
of goods.
The conductor on this car has just
returned from the front car collecting
fares and is surprised to learn that he
has Horn, the tailor on his Car with
imported goods.
A stranger, by the way, is with Mr.
Horn and he is telling him and the
conductor how much they can save
by calling at his place of business and
have suit Of clothes made.
lust think of it, remarked Mr.. Horn,
| can make you the finest suit OF
clothes from imported goods for SIS, l
will further give you a guarantee that
the clothes will fit to perfection.
Every one who has had clothes
made at Mr.. Horns place of business
has been satisfied. The question has
been asked if Mr.. Horn has different
grades of goods. Well, you will not
find the assortment of goods that Mr..
Horn has in his store in any other
place in the city of Washington. Go
and see for yourselves. Just ask him
to allow you TO inspect the goods that
have just arrived.
Inspect his new summer goods.
You need not purchase his clothes if
you don't want them. Go and look
at them. 1t will not cost you a penny.
The gentlemen who patronize Mr..
Horn are some Of the best people in
the city.
Do you want a frst-class business
suit made to order? Do you want a
dress suit? Are you in need of re-
ception suit ?
If you are in need of any of these
goods give Mr.. Horn chance to
please you.
Why should you go and purchase a
suit on the lnstallment plan at cost
of $40 that is not worth ten, when you
can have a frst-class suit made for
ten or fifteen dollars? 1t is all folly.
Times are hard and you have a
chance now to save your money. The
only clothing house in the City that
will give a satisfactory guarantee.
