Carpets

Great big news for you! Axmin-
ster carpets, such as we have been
selling all along for $1.35 and such
as, SO far as we know, everybody
else sells for $1.50-now at 81 a
yard.
Fifty-hve different patterns, thirty
thousand yards enough Of some of
the best patterns to fit out a hotel.
A year or SO ago we sold twenty
thousands yardsof carpet in the same
way. The manufacturers told us that
they offered those carpets to other
concerns. and they wouldn't touch
them-f'too big lot = We sold
them in about week.
Fine worsted Administer carpets,
all this years patterns-some of
them as good patterns as we have
ever seen; others of the average, and
a very few of the kind that we don t
like ourselves, but which sell better
than some we do like.
We took the whole lot-the end
of several-million-dolS4r manufac-
turer's stock.
The patterns are quiet, gaudy,
light, dark, Oriental, French, Eng
lish, American-you won't have any
trouble in finding what you want,
and all you want.

The late election in Ohio proves that
McKinleyism is dead in his own State.
There were three Gubernatorial candidates
Mclean, Democrat; Nash, Republican;
and Jones, Independent. McLean's and
Jones' vote combined is $4,000 more than
that cast for Nash. and as the followers OF
each represent the opposition to Mckinley
the battle next year is fOregone one. A
correspondent from Ohio says OF the cam
paign; "The audiences that gathered to
hear Jones cheered for Jones and Bryan
the same as the audiences that attended
the regular Democratic meetings cheered
for Mclean and Bryan. Thus it will bs
seen that Bryan represents, as against
Mckinley, practically the combined vote
of Mclean and Jones, which would give
him the state by 50.000.D
