kandiy0hi VS.. Wi11mar.

Arrangements are progressing nice
ly for the debate between the Kandi-
yohi team and Willmar. The subject
chosen is not definitely settled at this
writing but will most likely be as fol-
lows: Resolved, that the Annexation
of the PHILIPPINE Islands to the United
States would be to the Best Interests
of the United States.' DR.. c.. John
son, JAS. Wharton and Geo. Tyler, of
Willmar, will take the affirmative
side, while Kandiyohi will be repre-
sented on the negative side by Messrs.
Robert Burns, Roy E. Sperry and r.
M. Stanford. The date of the debate
has been postponed to Jan. 18th, which
will give ample time to prepare on the
subject. Remember the place and time,

FRIDAY, JANUARY 18th.
Is the last day Of that
Great Ten Days Sale
of kinball Pianos at
& SPICER'S.

Remember we will close this great
Piano Sale Friday, Jan. 18th. Be
wise, consider, and save money, grasp
the opportunity while it lasts. You
may not have the money, but your
credit is good and you can use the
piano while you are paying for it.
Others do this way, why not you? The
experience of thousands of happy own
ers of Kimball Pianos ought to inau-
ence you. Talk to us about it, that
costs you nothing and we may devise
a plan that would suit you. If you
are not posted we will give you all the
information you desire.
We do not think any person will
question the statement that the w. w.
Kimball Co. manufacture and sell
more pianos than any other house in
the world. Some agents and dealers
don't like it. It makes them feel sore
That is one of the proofs that you are
getting more piano value at this great
sale than you have ever seen before
in Willmar and vicinity. If the peo-
pie Of Willmar and vicinity got such
Piano bargains every day they would
not be bargains. 800 to 5000 saved
on the price of a piano is quite a lot
OF money to save. The wonderful de-
duction in piano prices at this great
sale is the hardest proposition that
our competitors eyer figured against.
The reason they don't like our
methods is that we make the price of
the leading piano of the day so low
that you can afford to have one.
We mean what we say when we ad-
vertise to close Friday Jan. 18th.
We can't spend all our time, nor tell
you all about it through the columns
Of this paper. Suppose you put your
time against ours and Investigate.
We will tell you all about it and try
and arrange matters to your satisfac-
ton. It is your loss if you fail to &C.
cept our invitation. e
Remember we guarantee every item
bsolutely correct in this our last mes
sage to you, and that we can't call
your attention to this sale again.
Your last and greatest opportunity.

the place of kalsomines and wall pa
per. Alabastine sets with the wall. It
Is practically stone cement, as hard
and smooth as paint, but much less ex-
pensive, and is applied just as easily by
anyone. 1t can be mixed with either
cold or hot water, and applied with a
kalsomine brush. 1t is clean, healthful.
and economical. Every one of the
strong points of Alabastine, proved to
be such by the test of twenty years,
is picked up by every new manufac-
turer of ordinary kalsomine and claimed
for his goods. These claims are abb
surd on their face. Alabastine alone
can prove its durability by the test of
time. 1t is sold by paint dealers, in
5-lb. packages, properly labeled.

that Reed was right in taking that

in order that business might proceed.
His course in this respect is now in
dorsed by all good parliamentarians.

HOUSE SPEAKERSHIP.
Both the East and the West Desire
to Secure It.
Washington Deeply Interested I'm the
Successor to Thomas b. Reed
Some of the More Prom
inent Candidates.
Especial Washington letter.


The determination of Speaker Reed
to withdraw from public life has
brought forth the names of a number
of prominent members of the house of
representatives, who may become can
didates for the speakership; position,
by the way, which is next in power to
that of the chief magistracy of the re-
public.
Serene E. Payne, of New York, is
logically candidate, because he has
been continuously a member of the
house for 16 years. He is at the head of
the committee on ways and means, and
is naturally regarded as the leader of
his party. James S. Sherman, also of
New York, is a much younger man, and
has been a member of the house for ten
years. Either one of these gentlemen,
if selected by the eastern members of
the dominant party, might prove to be
successful; and either one of them
would be good presiding officer.
The western men have a caucus ma
jority, if they can unite upon a candi-
date. Ohio will probably not present
candidate, because the president halls
IL
date, because none of her representa-
tives has been in public life long enough
to become national character. The
states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Mime
sofa and Nebraska have no man who
has been a member of the house long
enough to claim recognition in a speak
ership contest, excepting Wisconsin,
which might present the name of Con-
gresham Babcock, but for the fact that
be declined<to be candidate
Illinois has two good men, either one
Of whom would make good presiding
officer. Congressman Hopkins, of Au
rora, is a leading member of the COM
mittee on ways and means. He has
often presided over the house when in
committee of the whole, and in that
position has manifested great parlia
mentary skill. Congressman Cannon,
of Danville, has long been a national
character. He has three times been
chairman of the committee on appro-
priations. 1t was he who introduced
the famous bill appropriating $5o,OOO,
900 to be used at the discretion of the
president ''for national defense" He
is personally popular and known to be
ruggedly honest. He is very impetu-
Gus man, and might better retain his
Craftsmanship than to secure the speak
ership.
Longest in service, and exceptionally
popular with public men, is Col. David
B. Henderson, of Dubuque, Ia. If the
west should unite in supporting him,
his selection would be acceptable to all

Speakership.)
the leading representatives of the west
ern states. He has been a member of
the committee on rules for number of
years, and is perfectly familiar with
the practices and precendents of the
house of representatives. He has been
chairman of the committee on judiciary
for four years. He was acting chairman
of the committee on appropriations for
some time. He is an able debater and an
eloquent orator.
Either one of these gentlemen pos
sesses sufficient ability and experience
to fill the important position. Either
one of them would prove to be accepta-
BILE to his party, and would reflect credit
upon his supporters. Neither one of
them would make record for assuming
autocratic power; for neither one of
them has advocated the exercise of such
power by Speaker Reed. Neither one of
them possesses the autocratic DISPOSE
ton which has actuated the strong and
masterful man who now voluntarily re-
linquishes the power of exalted station.
In all fairness and candor it should
be stated that no little injustice has
been done Speaker Reed by the news
papers which have disseminated the
idea that he was the author of a co1e
of imperial rules. AS matter of fact,
Tom Reed administered the rules which
were made by the house of representa-
tives; and administered them autocrat-
ically. But he only introduced two rules
which NAV be termed distinctivelv
