Henry Labouchere the stormy pet
rel editor of London Truth, has writ
ten a review of its thirty-one years of
existence, The publication carries the
motto "Cultores Veritatis Frauds
Inimici." and the editor devotes space
to its legal experience in exposing
fraud OF all the actions brought
against the paper in that time only
four have resulted in damages. OF
these, one turned upon the precise
position of village pump. .as to
which," Mr., Labouchere dryly OBJ
serves, 81 was misled by trusting to
the evidence of two beneficed clergy
men-a lesson which / have always
remembered to my profit" Because
of putting it on the wrong side of the
street he had to pay $500 in damages
and much more in costs.

Popular Moorhead Dry Goods Firm
Preparing for Big Sale on
Saturday.

Great was the astonishment of the
people Of Moorhead when. they found
the store of T.. e. Moe Il TO closed.
They could not understand why this
popular store did not open as usual.
but now it has been noised around that
! they are preparing for big sale and
We're unable 70 open on account Of tho
necessity OF requiring the time to mark
down prices and re- ticket every article
before the sale opens Saturday All
day yesterday and today a half score
or more Of extra clerks have been en-.
gagged In making the necessary ar
langements preparatory TO the OPEN
ing day.
When interviewed by reporter as
70 the reasons for this unusual proceed
ure on the part of Messrs Moe & co.
| (for Mr. Moe never had a sale before
| of this magnitude he replied that He
had about $4,000 worth Of extra stock
that he desired closed out at this time
and that owing to the constant arrival
Of more goods, that such a sale was
found imperative.
The sale gives every evidence Of be-
ing exceptionally successful for every
one knows the character of Messrs.
Moe & Co.'S business methods and
| that they handle only the best and
most reliable Of staple goods. and ca
ter to the best trade Of Moornead Far
so and Vicinity
For this reason we feel confident that
scores will make Ii a point to take in
| this sale, for il certainly seems to be
a sort of save half and pay a half''
sale. Every article in the store is
cut. some to much less than cost Of
goods See advertisement elsewhere.
