It is strange an American stump

cannot make speech without that
stereotyped howl of whipping Eng
land. Even Morgan spoke of the g.
100000 brave Americans fighting
and winning their liberty, wilfully
emitting the fact that without the
aid Of the French they would not
have been in it.
The fact is America has never
fought England single-handed, hav-
ing always taken advantage of Eng
lands difficulties with other nations,
and If England had retaliated at the
Trent affair, there would now have
been no United States; they may
thank Queen Victoria for preventing
it, but mol They laud the French,
when really Napoleon III. was
pressing, the British Government to
recognize the South. So long as
Queen Victoria is on the throne
they may indulge in the sport of
twisting the Lions tail, but when
she is non est they will find it a lively
pastime. Where was this boosted
freedom when the Government was
obliged to use the conscript laws of
France to compel these brave pa
triots to fight the South; even the
large beunties offered would not in
duce these patriotic citizens to
fight for their homes. 1t is sicken-
ing to hear their boasts OF patriot
ism when it is we'll known that those
who had money gave thousands of
dollars to furnish substitutes.

derstand that if America gets into

BIKE LAMPS,
81! Il

For all kinds of money
and all kinds of people. We
are after the multitude just as
close as the multitude is after
our goods, and we draw no
lines. We make just as great
an effort, if an effort is need
ed, to sell you a nickel plated
bicycle lamp for a dollar as to
sell you one at five. We have
bicycle lamps, nickel plated,
that burn just plain kerosene
oil and the light is guaranteed
to be wind and jar proof. A
dollar is mighty cheap for a
bicycle lamp.
We have other kinds of
lamps as well. Those for the
table, either dining or parlor,
are as handsome as any ever
shown here. Lamps for the
student or reader, with green
shades for the protection of
the eye, are capitally built
and furnish an abundance of
light. Hanging lamps for the
hall and piano lamps for the
parlor, are plentiful in our
store and the prices are below
bed rock. We have put the
price so low that in the event
of annexation, they cannot
be sold for less money. De-
signs exclusive, and prices to
suit every one.
