Spend it at Speig|e's !!

Just little dollar on its mission
sent, makes lot Of people glad each
time coin is spent. You pay it to
the butcher for meat to give you
strength, he takes it to the grocer
from whom it goes at length, some
pretty bit of cloth or lace, his better
half to buy, or helps to get her winter
hat to make her rivals sigh. The dry
goods man sends on the coin to pay
his market bill, and though the coin
is often spent it stays dollar still;
and every time it's spent at home
some act of good is done, in tkoom-
ing'' local industries ere the setting
of the sun.
But if you take that shining coin
and break the local chain, the
chances are that from afar twill not
return again. If once it passes out
of town the butcher and the baker,
the grocer and the dry goods man,
the cook, the undertaker,s the car
penter, the carriage wright, the
blacksmith-everyone-will lose ere
the settieg of the sun.
Just keep the little coin at home,
just keep it moving well, and every
time it changes hands, somebody's
goods twill sell. That single little
dollar has thus wonderous power,
to make somebody better a dozen
times an hour. Just try a loaf of
Spiegle's bread, made of PLANsIFTER
FLOUR, grown in he Beautiful Indian
Territory, and made in Ardmore.

All the information which has

feet that Great Britain does not
desire mediation and though it is
understood the Boer government is
anxious for peace, the Statement
made by DIR. Leyds, its representa-

FRANKLY STATED.
Colonial Possessions sre but Vassals
of an Empire.

Washington, Jan. 31.-The re-
publicans Of the ways and means
committee of the house last night
laid down definite lines upon which
the republican leaders of the house
have decided to exchange for
Puerto Rico so far as tariff duties
are concerned. The decision reach
ed is exceedingly important as it
commits the republicans of the ways
and means committee to the theory
that Puerto Rico and Philippines
are not the territory of the United
States within the meaning of that
section of the constitution which
provides that customs aud revenue
laws shall be uniform throughout
the United States. In other words,
it commits them to the view that
our new possessions can be gov
erned as colonies and that discrim-
mating duties can be laid against
them. The question arose in con-
nection with the bill, introduced
ten days ago by Representative
Payne of New York. designed to
remove all tariff barriers between
Puerto Rico and the United States
free trade. in other words.
The republican members of the
way and means committee, to which
the bill was referred, discussed it
at several secret meetings and de-
cided to favor a substitute which
will be offered when the bill comes
up for discussion in the full COM
mittee. The substitute provides
that tariff of Puerto Rico against
goods from foreign countries, ex-
cept the United States, shall be the
same as against goods entering the
United States from such countries,
but that such goods imported into
the United States from Puerto Rico
or vice versa shall pay 25 per cent
OF the duties. That is between
Puerto Rico and the United States
there shall be a horizontal reduc-
ton of rs per cent in the tariff.
The substitute also provides that
the revenue from such tariff duties
shall be used to defray the expense
of administration in the island.
The action of the republicans to-
day amounts to a decision of a
special investigation of a sub COM
mittee of the ways and means COM
mittee for several weeks, does not
apply to our insular possessions and
that the constitution of the United
States does not extend over them.

Fletch, 70 years of age, was found

squalidly furnished home at 80

No smoke had been seen coming
from the chimney of Fletch's S

man been seen to leave or enter the
house. When Questioned Fletch
said that he had given the Second

worth several thousand dollars. In
order to make his payments on the
lots, Fletch had rawned all his
furniture except a table and two
chairs. His pension, 5000 month,
had gone the same way.
