THE CRISIS.

VIII the Protective tariff prove a
tower of babel for the Republican
party: or bulwark of American
liberties?
The answer to the question depends
upon the sincerity with which the
party responds to the call of the pres
ident and makes good the declaration
OF Taft apd Hughes. The very saliva
tloD of the party depends upon the
Auickened conscience of the rank and
fle. There is no course other than
honesty-absolute downright. I'M
yielding honesty-left open to the
party, Good politics" has dictated
reticence on the tariff question, but
Roosevelt has broken down this wall
of reserve; he has called his party to
the test, and that supreme test must
come with the issue of tariff revision
now seemingly certain on the pro
gram of the congressional session fol-
lowing the presidential election.
There was wonderful confusion of
tongues when the Wilson bill was
under consideration in congress. and

protest, should the Republican party

Protective tariff is the dstinctively

AUCTION PRICES" AT
FRICKER S CONTINUE
Reductions on Parity With
Recent Bargains.

In response to numerous requests
Fricker & Bro. have decided to con-
tinue their sale of jewelry at auction
prices up to and including March 10.
The plan upon which the sale is be-
ing conducted is: Anyone desiring
to purchase any article in stock asks
for the auction sale" price on that
article. Mr.. Fricker or one of his
assistants names a price which is on
a par, as near as they can judge with
the prices which were obtained for
similar articles during the recent
sale conducted by Mr.. Raven, the
auctioneer. This price will of course
be at very material reductions from
the regular selling price, which is
plainly marked on every article in
the store.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
first auction sale made sharp inroads
on the supplies, the firm is anxious
to convent a further share of their
magnificent stock into cash.
In some instances out-of town cal
lers had heard of the auction sale,
and did not know it had been discon-
tinued, and came to take advantage
of it. This suggested the idea of con-
tinuing the reduction for another ten
days. The original sale closed We'd
nesday night, with the largest crowd
of the entire auction.
Remember, any article in the stock
