Various Experts Can Tell Very Little
Regarding the Origin of the

An interesting meeting OF the house
investigating committee on smclter

of ore at which the snlelter men buy
from the miners, was held last night
in the Wilson hotel committee rooms.
This was the second session. and while
a number of witnesses were examined
the evidence was not as Illuminating as
1t gave promise of being at the first

in the country told Mr.. Woodruff that
prices OF raw material have risen SO
OF late that the retail trade and con
sumers would not be able TO pay him
what he would have to charge in or
der to make a living profit, and there
fore, the chances were that he would
close down his mills later in the sea-
son. Eastern Jobbing houses appear
to be calling in their travelling men, who
have been selling more goods than their
firms are able to fill and there is no re-
lief in sight, with still higher prices to
come. There has been an advance Of
20 per cent since January /, in cali
Goes, with a still further rise anti
cipated. There Is no telling where all
this will end. However. in some lines
of goods, as in mohairs there seems TO
be plenty and the western markets are
well supplied This class of fabrics
makes fine shirt waists.
AUTUMN SHADES.
The styles for autumn goods are now
engaging the attention of the wholesale
trade with heavy purchases being
made already foI later delivery to re-
tailers The call will be for dark, sub
dued tones in plaids and fancy dress
goods, with a liberal sprinkling of
stripes The Amoskeag mills have in
creased the number of their looms by
1000 but it does not appear to make
much of an impression ON the efforts
to catch UP with orders Silks are adj
vancing all along the line, and vel
vets are in demand But this latter
class of goods is MOI so much worn out
here, on account of the, dust as In the
east where the dust question Is re-
duced to a minimum.
Mr.. Woodruff was In the senate gal
lcries when the vote was taken to retain
Senator Smoot, and listened with great
interest to the great speech OF Senator
BeVeridge. Mr. Woodruff said the re-
marks OF Senator Dubois were thin and
without substance.
RETAIL TRADE.
In the retail dry goods trade, the
buyers who went east have returned.
and spring goods ordered by them are
beginning 10 show up. But as with
nther lines, dealers report suffering be-
cause of late deliveries over the
railroads OH which freights have
been so badly congested. In fact these
deliveries may be so late In many cases
as to greatly interfere with the activity
of the spring trade. The present cold
spell of weather. too, has had its in
fluence in retardlng trade as it is too
late for winter trading, and too early
for much spring buying Miliners are
preparing for the grand open
lnES winch Will cOIlle ldleT IN the
month with Easter Sunday in view.
The displays this year promise TO be
unusually flne. In general the retail
dry goods trade reports business for
February vast improvement over that
of the same month last year.
CLOTHING TRADE.
Tho clothing trade reports a duh
week, with little doing. on account of
the weather. But the shoe men report
lively times, with prices as stiff as ever.
There has been no decline in leather
stocks. The season for rubhers has
about ended. The demand for high top
shoes continues, and dealers say this
class OF goods has driven completely the
old style of top boot out of the market.

DON'T WATT UNTIL SATURDAY
TO DO YOUR BUYING
An Appeal to the City Trade Of Chick
asha BY the Merchants
and Clerks

We want to ask the good people of
Chickasha to do as much of their
trading during the week as possible
thereby leaving Saturday for the
farmers and the people who cannot
get to the stores any other time. The
best time to trade is in the morning,
during the lveek lUhen the stock is in
good condition and the sales people are
feeling fresh and not tired and vorn
out as they are on Saturday.
The city people will find that if
they adopt the plan Of trading during
the week and trading in the morning
as much as possible, they will get
much more satisfactory service.
Summer is coming on and the girls
standing behind the counters for Is
hours during the hot weather, as they
have been compelled to do on Sat-
urdays, is extremely injurious to
their health. In addition to the long
hours they wait on about three times
as many customers as on any other
day. The government is making
eight hours work day with all kinds
Of labor on all public work. The
salespeople work ten to twelve hours
every day and fifteen on Saturday.
Don't you think they are entitled to
some consideration? If every man
and women in Chickasha will give
the above their earnest consideration
and do their buying during the week
and in the mornings as much as pos
sible; they can make conditions a
great deal better, both for the stores
and themselves. Won't you help usi
