Pound for pound, size for
size, berry for berry, others sell
Coffee cheaper than we can.
But the difference comes in the
quality of the berry, and in our
roasting.
We have special machinery no
others use. We have enormous
facilities. We handle immense
quantities. We buy for cash.
But we stand out for high quail
ity and most firms are too selfish
to make coffee as we do. g.
If any one could give you the
same berry at a lower cost we
certainly could, and we would.
1t would double our business.
But it cannot be done.
You get in this world only
what you pay for. There never
was a woman who tried our
High Grade Coffee in parch-
ment-lined bags who could not
detect that it was very different
from ordinary coffee.
1t is for economical families
especially. The worl1ingg-man
needs its nourishing virture more
than any one else. 1t won't take
you long to try it. Ask your

When the students at Ann Arbor,
Mich, interrupted and tried to worry
Mr.. Bryan while he was speaking,
he didn't flare up and show his
teeth like Teddy Roosevelt is in the
habit of doing, nor herald it over the
country as an outrageous assault, but
he answered them pleasantly, and after
the meeting when he learned that some
of the more boisterous of the boys had

caused more by boyish thoughtlessness

INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY OF THE
NEGRO.

The new 2, 500 spindle mill at Dallas,
Tex, to be run entirely by colored men,
is more than a good instance of the
growing prosperity of the South. 1t
is likewise a good indication of the in
dustriaI activity of the race in that sec
ton and also a good lesson to colored
men everywhere. 1t emphasizes in a
striking manner the wisdom of the
educational policy adopted and carried
out SO steadily by Booker Washington
at Tuskegee, Ala. The new plant IS
not to be an immense one, and yet it is
not to be small one, either. Some
$50, 600 are to be invested IN it, and it
will operate about 2, 500 spindles. That
will make quite a respectable establish
ment under all the circumstances. The
buildings have already been secured,
with electric power and railway and
water facilities. II the mill meets with
success, as it promises to do, 1t will be
a good industrial omen for the colored
race.

M'KINLEY A TOOL OF BOSSES

1t is well said by the Baltimore Sun,
which bitterly opposed Mr.. Bryan in
1896, that one of the most attractive
aspects of his candidacy is the personal
freedom and independence with which,
if the people should elect him, he would
enter the White House. He has given
the country positive assurance that no
boss or association of bosses holds his
political promissory notes, payable on
demand after his Inauguration. And
the whole character of the man makes
this assurance sure.
1t is strange that Mr.. Hanna should
have committed the tactical blunder of
provoking, by his groundless charge, a
contrast between Mr. Mckinley and
Mr.. Bryan in this respect. No con-
trast could be more damaging to Mr..
hanna's candidate. For, while MIR.
Bryan stands before the people per
fectIy untrammeIed candidate, I'M
pledged, unmortgaged and unsold to the
bosses, Mr.. McKinley's second admins

who rally round the flag for what

are intent on gain, and whose whole
purpose Is to control and use the gov
eminent and all its branches for "busi-
ness only. P" And of that selfish and sor
