MEMS CLOTHING
AT Low PRICES,
A great many people have
seen fit to take advantage of the
low prices that have been and are
prevailing during our Slaughter
Sale in all departments of our
store. Every buyer has been a
pleased buyer. But it is in our
Clothing Department that the
GREATEST BARGAINS are to
be found. Here you will find
that the 25 per cent. off that we
are giving on Clothing, brings the
prices down to cost, and in many
instances below the cost prices.
But we prefer to let the goods go
at a sacrifice rather than carry the
Clothing over. If you are look
ing for Clothing Bargains you
can ill-afford to let this opportu-
nifty to get real bargains go by.

The county board of commissioners
held their regular monthly meeting in
the office of the supervisor on Wednes-
day. all of the members being present.
The business was Of routine nature
and was devoid of particular interest.
During the day, Supervisor Gordon
made a suggestion to the effect that it
would probably be very good idea to
do away with the present system Of
building bridges by contract, and in
stead to train a special convict force
for such work. Under the direction of
an experienced bridge builder, the su-
pervisor thinks that such an arrange
ment could be managed so as to secure
satisfactory and economical results,
The other members of the board were
disposed to approve Mr.. Gordon's idea
but no definite action was taken
During the discussion, it developed
that in various neighborhoods there
are a number of individuals who make
it a business to encourage the building
of bridges so as to get the contracts
for themselves. 1t was suggested tina,

STAY THE VALLEY.

The wheat growers of the Val
ley are grumbling and many are
trying to sell out and go away.
They should remember one thing.
and that is they cannot create con.
ditiops; they must submit TO con-
ditlons rs they find them and ad-
just their business to these condi.
tions. The San Luis Valley is
one of the garden spots of earth,
both as to soil aud climate. Good
money has been made in raising
wheat, but it is evident that the
day of wheat growing is past, and
now the same question confron's
the farmers that the corn growers
of Iowa had to meet few years
ago. The Iowa corn growers
solved their difficulties by turning
their attention to stock and dairy
business. The solution here may
be cattle, hogs, sheep, sugar beeis
or diversities of Industries. 1t

Orwell Pleaded Guilty and for Leniency

The last Official act Of Judge Clifford at
this term was pronouncing sentence on
Jack Orwell, who was implicated In the
shooting scrape at Bonanza a short time
ago. The prisoner had pleaded guilty
to assault with intent to kill. When
asked II he had anything to say before
sentence should be passed, he said he had
very little to say; that he was miner
and never received a dollar that he did
not earn, and asked the judge to be as
lenient as possible. Judge Clifford re.
minded him that the charge to which he
had pleaded guilty was very serious one
next to murder; that all he knew about
the case was what he had learned in read
ing over the testimony given at the pre-.
liminary examination; that II showed de.
tendant up In very bad light. tie In.
formed Orwell that the penalty In such
case was from one to ten years In the
peni,entiary; that he should feel thankful
for in such case there was little doubt
but that he would have been convicted OF
murder. The Judge said he fel, like show.
ing some leniency from the fact that the
prisoner had pleaded guilty and thus
saved the county an expensive trial. He
then sentenced Orwell to five years in the
penitentiary. The prisoner was pale and
very nervous, and he evidently expected
a lighter sentence, as a look OF disappoint
ment passed over his countenance when
sentence was pronounced.-Democrat.
