Always the Best.
lBSOLUTEN PURE

For the past few years, each semi
annual millinery opening of the Cres-
co Department Store has been success
sively termed 'the best one yet" and
their spring opening on Wednesday
of this week had the same praise ac-
corded as had the ones preceding.
Promptly at 1870 p. m. the Cresco
Military Band played a couple of Sc
lections outside and then repaired to
position in the rear of the building
and furnished a delightful two hours
concert of their best selections.
In spite of the stormy night, the at
tendance was up to the usual mark
and for two hours the store was filed
with people, and the crowd consisted
not entirely of ladies for a generous
delegation of men were present to ad-
mire the beautiful articles of feminine
adornment there displayed.
The millinery department. and the
show window were of course the main
attractions. The former was as tasti-
ly trimmed and as attractive as ever
and here Miss Sims and her capable
assistants displayed their beautiful
millinery creations. The show win
dow is the most tasty every displayed
! by this store and reflects unbounded
credit upon the collaborators in its
production, Miss Emma Woellstein,
Miss Nellie Sims and Charles O'Mal-
ley. Spring hats, spring dress goods,
ribbons, laceS and all that is autiiul
and seasonable for feminine wear and
adornment we're therein daintily dis
played. Miss Woellstein's skill was
also displayed in the dry goods depart
ments, various articles ofmerchandise
being so utilized as to be very decora-
tive, the whole forming very pleas
ing combination.

The following method has been used
with unvarying success for years. Use
water that is as hot as you can bear
your hands in; dissolve a little Gold
Dust Washing Powder in the water,
and add enough soap to make a strong
suds. Wash the fannels through two
suds prepared in this way, plunging
them up and down, and rubbing gent

for washing; place them smoothly on

Result OF the Election Significant and
Gratifying.

One of the first things Senator Fairbanks
did last night after the result of the cleo
ton became certain was to send President
Mckinley a congratulatory telegram. Later
the senator gave out the following ex-
preston of opinion to the public:
THE result is magnificent and gratifying
The American people have handsomely in
dorsed the administration of President Nc
Kinley, and very emphatically repudiated
Bryan and Organism. The opposition chal-
lenged the intelligence of the people. They
promulgated false issues to conceal real
Issues which vitality concerned the welfare
of the country. The people were not de-
ceived They have decided that the pro-
tective tariff and the gold standard shall
be maintained and that the policies which
make for prosperity and national honor
shall be continued, and that we shall meet
the obligations growing out of the war
with Spain in good faith. They have de-
cided that IL is a good rule to let well
enough alone. There is no better evidence
of the capacity of the people for self-gov-
eminent than the crushing defeat admin
istered for the second time to a political
adventurer. Indiana has done nobly. She
has spoken forcefully in favor of sound
policies and I'm support of a successful adj
ministration. We have been greatly aided
by many of the best Democrats in the
State. We cannot forget their potential
assistance"
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1900-11-07
EDITOR MoRss TALKED.


The only local Democrat of prominence
who was at all willing to discuss the result
of the election last night was Samuel f.
Morss, proprietor of the Sentinel. The
owner of the local organ of Democracy.
when found at 1890 last night, was busily
engaged in consuming a luncheon that
presented a tempting appearance. When
asked for expression, Mr.. Morss smiled
pleasantly, at the same time making
deprecating gesture with his left hand, the
right being occupied with holding a dainty
demi-tasse, and said: "At 1890 o'clock it
looks very much as though Mr. Mckinley
will pull through. Mr.. Dunn here says,
and l agree with him, that IL Is certainly
not our fault. We have tried our best 10
avert any such unfortunate result We re-
gard the result of the election as great
calamity to the American people. Our re-
turns from Indiana are conflicting, and at
this hour we say that the result in this
State is still in doubt"
Mayor Taggart was found entering the
elevator leading TO Democratic state head
quarters at IL O'clock With him were
Superintendent of Police Quigley, Joseph
l.. Bell and several others. The mayor
was still cordial as of yore, although his
smile was painfully absent What is
there to say?" he asked I'm reply to the re-
porter's request for a statement. "Mckin-
ley is elected. that is all far. We can't
tell about Indiana yet. The official returns
are not in yet.
Leon O. Bailey, who made the race for
Congress against Mr.. Overstreet two years
ago, was asked what he thought of the re-
suit. Il haven't thing TO say" he replied,
except that it looks much though Nc
Kinley has been elected" When asked il
Mr.. Burke had been defeated Mr.. Bailey s
features showed signs of smile as he
answered.: "Oh, presume So" 1t is likely
that he had heard an intimation that Burke
was defeated by worse plurality than
the district returned against him Bailey
two years ago, and was naturally not re-
gretful.
