We Have Too
Many Boys Pants,

but as Bows Knee Pants are something that are Away
needed we have no fears of not quickly selling them as soon
as mothers hear of this sale. The fact that we bought
such tremendous quantities was a factor IN bringing down
the prices from the manufacturer, and we can truthfuly
state that at the present sale prices these Pants cost you
less than most merchants can buy them IN quantities from
the manufacturers. They came in sizes to Is years, and
some lots have sizes 5 and 10 years.

Sacramento Bee: The House OF
Representatives Monday, by a vote
of 100 to $50, passed one of the most
ubiquitous measures which has ever
disgraced the financial legislation OF
this Nation. The present Currency
bill gives the Government over bodily
to the Shylocks and TO the National
Banks. 1t provides for bond issues in
times of peace, all bonds and interest
to be paid only in gold. Not content
with that, it goes into the past and
declares that interest-bearing obliga-
tons now existing, which were con-
tracted to be paid in gold or in silver
at the option Of the Government, shall
hereafter be paid in gold alone. II
there were nothing else to condemn
this UBIQUITOUS bill. that should damn
it. In addition. it spreads the Nation
al Bank evil more and more. As it
was drawn in Wall Street, it will I'M
doubleday do all that is expected OF 1t
in milking the United States Treasury
for the benefit Of the Shylocks.

The British forces under General
Butler were defeated with heavy losses
near Colenso, December 10. General
Butler, with the full strength OF his
division, tried TO force a passage Of
the Tugela river, but was checked and
forced to retreat.
The British advanced to the attack
in three columns. The artillery ssc:Hs
with the middle column, was taken
close TO the river, from which the
Beers rose up and shot down the
artillery horses. They then maintained
such a hot infantry and artillery fire at
this point that it was possible for the
British to save only two OF their guns.
One was destroyed by the Boer fire and
ten had to be abandoned to the Beers
when the British reiterated. General
Butler lost in killed, wounded and
missing, 1907 men in this engage
ment.

demonstrations of other powers and

GOLD STANDARD BILL PASSED

The Currency bill passed the House
last Monday by a vote Of 100 to 100.
Every Republican voted in favor Of the
bill, besides eight Democrats from the
Eastern States, viz: Clayton, briggs,
Fitzgerald, Rupert, Scudder and Will
o of New York, Denny of Maryland
and Thayer of Massachusetts,. There
was no demonstration when these
Democrats broke away from their
party. The Republicans cheered
when the Speaker announced the re-
suit Of the vote.
The debate on the bill Saturday was
tumultuous and bitter. Norton OF
Ohio expressed the belief that the
pending bill was the elimination OF
of a gigantic money trust. This trust,
he declared, was at the foundation OF
the alliance between Great Brit
ain and the United States, which
exists at this hour. The Republicans
ieered this u~tterance.
Lentz, (D) of Ohio made a sensation
al speech in the course OF which he
charged that the bill had been prepar-
ed by the 5000 national banks, a
secret combination that welded more
influence than the Masonic fraternity,
the Odd Fellows and the Red Men
combined. In the course of his speech
he said: "Is your Egan pension OF
$75 for being reduced, degraded and
dishonored is your beef trust that
murdered 4.800 men, while the Span
iards only killed $50, is that the
source of your prosperity? Is your
humiliation and subordination OF the
man who won the most magnificent
victory that the world has ever seen,
Winfield Scott Schley, is that the source
of your prosperity? Is your subordi-
nation of Brooke and Miles and Merritt,
the men who had been trained, to-
gether with their associates at an
expense of millions of dollars to this
country, and putting Of politicians in
the Army saddle, is that the cause OF
your prosperity? You will live to De
ashamed Of your record"
Richardson (D) called attention to
the fact that but one section of the bill
had been read and charged that the
special order which did not permit the
offering Of . substitute or a motion to
recommit had been framed for the
especial purpose Of preventing the
offering Of a free silver substitute.
Then Dalzell (R) of Pennsylvania
took the floor and said: "You do not
dare, not one of you dares OF would
dare if you had the Opportunity to offer
a free-coinage amendment and risk a
vote upon it,"
A dozen Democratic jumped to their
feet, but Hepburn, who was in the
chair, recognized Dolliver (R). The
latter offered to yield the floor to any
one desiring to offer q free.silver
amendment.
Almost half the Democratic side,
including Bailey and Williams, arose
shouting II ask IT," and "We chal-
lenge you for the opportunity"
Addressing Bailey the chairman
said: "The gentleman from Texas
we'll knows that in committee 1t is not
competent to entertain q request to
change the order under which the
House is operating"
"Your bluff is calledl" shouted
Williams, pointing at Dolliyer, while
the Democrats cheered Justify.
