The Record says the business mems
city administration have finally CON
cluded to get move on themselves for
once, and see ii some much needed inn
provements cannot be effected. Per.
haps it would not be entirely out OF
order at this particular stage of the
proceedings to inquire of the city ad-
ministration what they propose doing
about that gambling ordinance. That
seems TO be about as much needed
improvement as any that have so far
been suggested.
Governor Steunenberg should at

most ardent supporters in this county.
If they are allowed at large much long
er, his excellency won't get anywhere
near his share of the votes next No

"The blight of free trade-The bless
ings Of protection" is the title of a
document just issued by the American
Protective Tariff League. This docu-

Dingley Tariff. 1t is based on the re-
suit of the Tariff Leagues Industrial
census, and should be in the hands of
every voter. Seven copies to any adj

Spokane has won the distinction of
having the greatest annual fruit ex-
hibition in America. This is the result
of the wonderful energy and business
ability of the citizens at its head, as
sisted as they always have beer by the
hearty support of the farmers and bust
ness men of the inland empire, who
appreciate the benefits of such an op-
portunity of advertising to the world
the great wealth and almost unknown
resources Of the country. This year
the fruit fair will be finer and better
than ever before. But it is still only
15,cent show, as remarkable as that
may seem to those who understand the
splendid entertainment which win be
furnished this year for the amusement
and instruction of the public. There
are to be entirely new programs every
day. Eighty-fve moving and stereop-
tican war pictures, the finest which
money can secure, a remarkably lot Of
skillful Japanese acrobats, Harry Du-
Bell, considered by many the best ira
peze performer in America, and the
the magnificent military band of %
pieces, will help to make this program
attractive to both old and young.

clothing, boots, shoes, hats, caps, car
pets, etc, on our shelves and we cor
daily invite you to call and see our
goods and get prices. The stock is
much larger and more complete in all
lines than ever before, and prices are
much lower. The recent advance in
the price of wool does not in the least
tend to raise prices on wooden goods in
our establishment. We succeeded in
making some excellent bargains in
wooden goods and we are prepared to
sell this class of goods chaper than ever
and will not be undersOld by any house
in the west. All cotton goods will be
disposed of at surprisingly low prices

get prices. All We ask is an inyestiga-
ton. Our stock embraces the latest
and best goods and everythingi is mark
