Closing at Six-Thirty.

The dry goods, grocery, clothing
and boot and shoe merchants with the
exception, as we understand, of about
two houses, have signed an agreement
to close their places OF business at
6:30 each evening except Saturdays.
The new arrangement commences this
evening, it being the first of the month.
The movement originated with the
clerks and was assisted by some of the
leading business men until nearly all
fell in line. We believe it is a good
change. The tendency of these times
is towards shorter hours for laborers.
1t is conceded by all that a laborer
ought to have few hours for recrea-
ton and to devote to his family. In
ten hours he can do about as much
surely as he can do in twelve. A
clerk has to be at the store at from
$3.50 to 1880 in the morning and when
closing is at $50 or O'Clock in the
evening it makes, taking out an hour
for meals, about eleven hours. This
kind of labor continued for years is
very wearing on clerks as we'll as on
managers. The inconvenience to the
public because of the $3.50 closing ex-
cept Saturdays will be insignificant
after the plan is established and we
are all used to it. The REPUBLICAN
is glad to see the change.

At meeting of the stockholders of
the Western Inter-urban Railway at
Des Moines last week, E. w. Weeks
was reelected director and menu
Der of the executive committee. The
surveyors have passed through this
place and are now running the line
west to the Audubon county line, by
the way of w. III. Dilley's. At this
point we understand they will come
back to Guthrie Center and run an
other line to Wichita, after which they
will go on west. In conversation with
Mr.. Weeks that gentleman expressed
himself very freely and stated that the
road would undoubtedly be built, there
being but one contingency and that a
stringency in the money market. The
Des Moines people according to the
Capital of Saturday have commenced
condemnation proceedings in the
courts for the right of way from that
city to Grimes at which point the
Western Inter-urban will meet them.
There is today every reason to believe
that active work will be commenced
on the route early in the spring. =

Word came to chairman Green
waldt yesterday that Gov. Cummins
has been billed to speak at Audubon
on political questions on Saturday at
two p. M. October 10, or one week
from next Saturday. The meeting
will be in the court house. 1t is
desired to make this meeting big
affair. Gov. Cummins is a noted
orator and the people generally want
to hear him. The committee is very
fortunate in securing the governor.
We hope the people will all assist in
making the meeting big success.

Does Quality
Mean Anything
:? :? :?

You can buy a watch at any
price between 81 and 800 and
it will keep (some kind of
time.
You can buy suit of clothes
for SIS or SIS, and there is just
as much cloth in the SIS as in
the $25 one.
You see there is such a thing
as quality having something to
do with the price and desira-
bility of watches and clothes.
May there not be other things
of which the same is true?
How about the drugs used in
your prescriptions?
Pedigree counts in the case
of horses, cattle, hogs, dogs
and chickens.
Does it in druggists?
Purity and accuracy is our
motto in drugs and prescrip-
tions.
If you need anything in the
drug line Except liquors) bet
ter come to US and you will get
pure drugs accurately COM
pounded.

Cold Rain Makes Things Unpleasant
for the Regulars.

Junction City, Kan, Oct. IA
steady, cold rain has been falling at
Camp William Carey Sanger for the
past forty Eight hours. The camp is in
a fearful shape and the roads about it
are in an almost impossible condition
Troops have been arriving nearly every
hour and are going into camp as fast
as their equipment and horses can be
unloaded from the trains. The many
wagons and horses have cut up the soft
prairie roads until the wagons sink az
most to their hubs. Most of the SOL
dierS were wet to the skin and most of
their blankets and equipment were
soaked with rain. Hay was issued to
have to sleep on the wet ground. Most
of the regulars are in camp.
Making camp and cleaning muddy
clothes will be the programme today.
On Thursday the maneuverS of the
regulars will commence. The program
for the last three days of this week will
be: October Is, regimental drill and
outposts by regiments; this will be
problem No. L of the regulars; October
16. brigade drill and bivouac; October II.
formatio of outposts; this will be the
second problem. In addition to these
three days rnaneuvers, the regular
will have three days maneuV-
ers after the militia leave on October
o. The regulars will break camp Oc-
tober 81.
Tuesday Thomas Wheeler, retired
sergeant who was the clerk of the
ouartermaster of the maneuver divis-
ion. was found dead in his tent. The
cause of his death was asthma. He will
be buried with military and Masonic

He WOULD BET.
Atchison Mans Proposal to Wage
Against Curtis.

The Leavenworth Times prints the fol-
lowing:
In one of his numerous interviews in
the Kansas City Star Charlie Curtis
bluffs to keep up his courage by pro-
claiming that he will carry six counties
out of eight in the district well
known Republican of Atchison yester-
day telephoned the Times authorizing
this paper to post a wager to be accept
ed by Curtis or any of his Topeka
friends
800 that Curtis will lose Jackson
county.
500 that Curtis win lose Atchison
500 that Curtis will lost Nemaha
county.
500 that Curtis viii lose Brown
500 that Curtis win lose Doninhan
county.
800 that Curtis will lose Leaven-
worth county.
Take one take all.
1t would now seem to be in order for
the Curtis push at Topeka to either quit
bluffing or put up.
