OF IMPORTANCE TO MERCHANTS.

OF IMPORT ANCE - MEhSHAN D
The fact of non-Jews advertising in
a strictly Jewish publication is, ipse
facto, bid for the Jewish trade, and
we do not fail to notice the admirable
manner Of evidencing it, as is done
in the advertisement of "The Monnig
Dry Goods Co. of Fort Worth, Tex,
and which appears on the outside COW
er Of our publication.
This firm has at all times recog-
nized and appreciated the moral and
commercial worth Of the Jewish mer-
chant and does not hesitate to say
to him: 1--WE want your trade and
need your business" Can anything
be palmer and more sincere?
AS a consequence of the liberal pol
icy and unprejudiced and fair dealings
this house has prospered to an
unusual degree, ranking on an equali-
ty with the very best drygoods estab-
lishments in the east and is the fore
most in the state and the name mon
mig" has become a synonym for Hon
esty and Liberality.

the latter succeeded in keeping Governor
Eben S. Draper and the rest Of the state
ticket in their present places, to win such
a victory by a narrow margin of 5000 votes
in a total Of $4,000 was too close for COM
fort.
The result Of lieutenant governor, In
which Louis A. rockingham, the incumb-
ent, defeated his democratic opponent,
Eugene n. Foss. by a little more than 5000
votes, was even more disquieting.
The election was the closest in the state
since 1892 Last year Governor Draper had
a plurality Of 10000 and Lieutenant Gov
ernor rockingham $1,000.
The democrats also made gains in the
Legislature, and today some Of them went

seller although it is over year old.
The play founded on this novel,
which is the joint work of Charming
Pollock and Mr. Dixon, is, however,
hundred times stronger than the

chief incidents are for the most part

er words, it is a story that is intense
ly dramatic from beginning to end.
