MATCH BOX FREE.

We wish word personal with our
readers about the Stewart Lumber Co.,
whose ad this week reappears on our
front page.
This company does not belong to the
lumber combine, and for this reason
the combine and their local agents in
the little towns throughout the North
west have adopted their usual dirty
methods to drive them out of business
When you mention this firm your
local combine dealer will tell you that
the Stewart Lumber Co. is a small, one
horse concern, who are simply scalpers,
cut grades. give short measure and deal
in bankrupt stocks of old, weather-beat-
en- lumber, and that if you order from
them you are bound to get beaten.
Another stock trick of the local deal
er is to urge you to send to this firm for
figures on bill of lumber and they will
meet the prices.
We have this week personally visited
the lumber yards of this company, and
saw as clean, clear fresh and fine-lOOk
ing stock of lumber as can be found
even in this great lumber center, Min
neapolis.
A large number of our readers bought
lumber of this firm last year and not
one has complained to us, and we would
not know how we could say better
word for the company.
Finally. let us suggest that you get
that match box at once. 1t is beauty,
and when you want lumber for fence,
barn or granary, reverse the usual pro-
gram: Get your local dealers honest
figures for lumber out of his yard and
instead of giving him the last chance
to figure, send this company your bill
and they will save you one-fifth, or near
that amount, and instead of weather
beaten, warped lumber from small
country yard, you get clean, fresh
lumber from the immense piles in the
city yard But don't miss that little
match box, it is gem. E. A. T.

APPROVES OUR PLAN,

Editor Coming Nation:
The prejudice against giving the editors
name to the public is an imitation of the
plan in operation since capital swallowed
brains and hired editors as their pumping
gods. or as Joe Howard called it. men made
prostitutes. and no one contradicted him. 1t
comes from a petty personal jealousy which
augurs ill for the community unwilling to
deal frankly with the people and give the
editor his due, instead of claiming it for
everybody's capital. Jealousy is fatal ele-
ment. We had more honorable times when
Greeley, Bryant, Raymond, Bennett, W. M.
Richie, Prentice, Gales and Seaton were
personally known. AS long as this contin-
ues, l shall feel distrust of such COM
munity.

You would hardly think Of naming

endum ballots; it will be much like any
informal ballot so frequently resorted
to in many public meetings.
When all these ballots are canvassed
the ballots will show who is the popular
man for each place. The count will tell
which man gets the most votes for each
place on the ticket and that man be-
comes our party candidate. He is plain
ly the popular choice. This is the plan
that smashes the slate of bosses and
schemers. This is the plan every Pop
ulist advocates and should stand by.
To this end, then, let no Populist ne
glect his plain duty. The Representa-
tive gives to the cause and to this first
experiment the space taken by these
ballots. Let no ballot be wasted fill in
some name for every Office. Do this at
once and forward the ballot to your
county organizer, or to H. B. Fay, or to
this Office, and your vote will be count

hour. 1t is the first duty of man to
his fellow men. Cut out these two
blank ballots, fill one yourself and pass
the other to some Populist neighbor
who man not get this paper. We are
pledged to purify politics and, by the
Eternal, let us do it! E. A. T.

THE REPRESENTATIVE. THURSDAY, JANUARY ii, 1906

ton: When did 81 yiA2n will the Twentieth
century begin? Yours truly,
we nave not concerned ourselves much
with this issue, not only because we
had much more important things to
think about. but also, because it did not
seem to us of much practical import
ance whether the, next year was counted
into the Nineteenth century or the
Twentieth.
We have observed. as everyone has,
the tremendous discussion which has
been raging all over the civilized world
upon this question. s.,
The pope seems to indicate that the
new century does not begin until the
last minute of the 31st day of Deem
Der, 1900, or the first second of January
l, 1901; while the emperor of Germany
has taken the bull by the horns and
boldly proclaimed that the Twentieth
century began on the first moment of
the present year-19OO.
1t seems to us that the German
scholars and their emperor are right
on this question.
We compute time from the Christian
era, which began the very moment that
Christ drew the breath of human life
This being true, Christ was born in the
First century and lived in the First
century. If this be not SO, then Christ
was born and lived before the Christian
era began. which would reduce us to
the absurdityTof saying that Christ was
born befere Christ: Every part of the
first hundred years, from the moment
Of Christ's first breath until the end
of the figst hundred years, was in and
part of the first century.
Those who take the other side would
claim that the first century did not
exist until the end of the first
year, and they point to the analogy
that 80 cents do not constitute dollar
and that there is pot "a dollar paid until
the hundred cents are placed on the
table. This seems to- us false reason
ing, because the First century clearly
began with the birth of Christ, and
every part of it belonged to the First
century. TIT I'D.

gray panne is trimmed with a
bunch of deep pink roses at the left
side. - -oa,
The jacket back is shaped with
all the graceful curved seam lines,
fitting perfectly smooth from the
shoulder to the lower edge.
The single dart seams in front
curve gracefully over the bust and
terminate in the arms eye. The
fronts are deeply undertaced with
cloth and reversed to form broad
lapels- which. with the high. flaring
collar. may be worn open or closed.
The correct two-piece sleeves
have no fullness at the shoulder,
but the upper portions are held
easy to give the stylish, round ef-
feet. The lower edge of the jacket
is shaped in unique pointed out
line.
Jackets by the mode may be worn
closed with fancy buttons in double
breasted stvle. or with revers clos
ed to the waist invisibly.
Separate collars and revers of
stitched panne or lace may be eff
fectively applied for dressy occa-
sions.
The skirt is particularly appro-
pirate for cloth having the effect of
being box plated from the waist
down, without having the super
t|uous material at the upper part
to add to its weight.
1t is made with seven cores
reaching almost to the center back
gore. which is arranged in a double
box plat. The skirt is fitted per-
fectlv smooth at the waist and over
the hip. the seams being opened,
thoroughly pressed. and machine
stitched on each side. Extensions
on each side of the cores, from the
PORT where the stitching ends to
the lower edge, are arranged in
hollow box plaits and fatty press
ed. These plaits graduate in depth
from the front to the sides, giving a
full. graceful flare to the skirt at
the floor line, and the box-plaited
back is of fashionable length.

who create creatures of the brain
always make their characters en-

every scene. incident and plot
