Should the Porto Rican tariff become
an Issue III the campaign of 1900 the
republican party will fare worse with
the press than did the democrats In
1896 when the 16 to silver idea drove
a great number of papers of wide in
fluence into the republican ranks. All
of these papers are again back in their
accustomed places ready to fight
for the democratic presidential candi-
date while such papers as the Chicago
Times Herald, New York Sun and

1t is matter of general information
today, that the principal item of cost IN
any manufactured article to the user
or consumer is the enormous cost of
selling the article. 1t is estimated that
this item of expense alone Is almost,
If not quite, equal to the cost of manu-
facture. Fer example, no one can run
regular music store, pay rent, light,
fuel, commissions, ETC., without adding
at least 500 to Sl50 to the cost of each
piano and S25 to $50 to the cost of each
organ.
We think this business may be done
on different line and save to the pur-
chaser this enormous profit. We have
two car loads of pianos and organs dl-
rect from the factories, in all the latest
cases and designs from the most reli-
able, renowned and celebrated makers,
and we propose to crowd one years
business into the short space of two
weeks IA saving to those who buy dur

the very best and highest grade of
pianos and organs on the American
markets names and regulations
that are beyond criticism. Commence

this largest and best selected stock ever
shown in this market at retail for about
what other dealers would have to pay
for this grade of goods at the factories.
