A Good Polishing Oil

There are probably thousand fur
niture polishes'' on the market, and
not over half a dozen of them are
worth wasting a bottle on.
We have a good polishing oil; we
have all kinds of varnish and know
what to do to varnish to make 1t
bright and clean,
The sale of Lemon Polishing Oil is
q very small affair in the midst of
larger and more important things with
u.s. However it's merits are such as
demand attention and we earnestly
recommend it for the house and office.
In many offices a bottle of our Lemon
Polishing Oil and an active office boy
are all that you need to keep your
desks bright and clean. For use at
home-pjano, table, fine furniture-it
Is just the thing. Try 1t.

l don't propose to have all the trouble

given them plenty Of warning and we
have told them that everybody In Mis-
soula is welcome to participate In the
banquet with or without invitations,

do, and II they don't want to come, we
| can't help 1t. Just as sure as these
fellows wait till Friday they will be
left at the post, for we will sell the
remaining tickets today and there will
be little chance for them to get in at
the last minute; we are going to order
plates just for those that we know will
be there, and there will be no more
and no less This is the only way we

MEMORIAL TABLET
 IS UNVEILED

Tuskegee, April 4.-(Special.) )-Shortiy tablet was unveiled at Tuskegee institute in memory of the late William H. Bald win, Jr., of New York city, who for eight years up to the time of his death, January 23. 1905, was a trustee of Tus- kegee institute.
 MT. Baldwin was president. at the time of his death, of the Lond Island rail- way. He became acquainted with Tuske- gee institute in 1S96 and from that time until his death probably did more than any other man, with the exception of Principal Booker T. Washington to make the school what it is now.
 After MT. Baldwin's death, an executive committee was formed to create a me- morial fund.- This fund.- amounting to S150,000 was given to Tuskegee institute on the date of Its twenty-fifth anniver- sary. From the sum remaining the me- morial unveiled today was erected. The presentation was made by Oswald Garri- son Willard of New York, chairman of the memorial committee.
 The monument was erected by Tuskegee students from brick made on the school grounds. On one side is a fountain and on the other a tablet containing a DOT trait of marble of William H. Baldwin, Jr., beneath which is the figure of ne- gro laborer with arms outstretched hold ing laurel branches.
 The design of the monument and the tablet are by the Sculptor Karl Bitter.

who enjoys the unique distinction of be- ing fair and honest in politics, and who manages entirely the affairs of his party in the city and county This, of itself, is work enough to occupy any man, and 1t must fully occupy MT. Greiner, who, no doubt, feels thankful that his post office Is manned by thoroughly skilled classified employees. In Albany, the sur veyor of the port Is William Barnes, Jr., the recognized republican boss of AL bany county, and member of the re- publican state committee. He Is pro- prietor of the Albany Journal and the position of surveyor Is admitted by his friends to be a sinecure. During the last year he has been notoriously active in opposing Governor Hughes, especially in the matter of race track legislation. and in the last state convention he led the opposition to the renomination of the gov ernor. The north is full of similar ex- amples of large degree of absorption in politics, and whenever the interests of the patron of any officeholder require 1t, his work at once becomes open and aggressive. In this connection the fol- lowing extract from The Evening Record CT of Amsterdam, N. r., regarding the proceedings at convention held at Sar- atoga to nominate a republican congress- man is interesting:
 Tt was @ postmasters' convention that met at Saratoga last Friday to name the republican congressional nominee. Post master Liddle of Amsterdam presided, Postmaster Davey of Mechanicsville was secretary and Postmaster Durey of Johns- town was the nominee. Postmaster Bain of Canajoharie seconded the nomination on behalf of Montgomery county, and tho convention adjourned on motion of Postmaster Dewey of Gloversvile The eloquent and able nominating speech was made by maker of postmasters-Repre- sentative Littauer."
 As the most effective and immediate remedies for existing conditions, we urge upon the executive the desirability of carrying the classified competitive service to the utmost limit that the law allows; second we urge upon Congress leglsla- ton permitting the classification of the officers whose appointment is now sub jeot to confirmation by the Senate. but who perform purely ministerial functions, such as the higher grade of postmasters and further permitting the promotion and transfer of subordinates to fill higher ad- miuistrative positions. Finally, having called attention to the benefit which has followed from the amendment to the civil service rules adopted by the President on June B. 1907, prohibiting political activity in the classified competitive service, we would urge a clearer definition and strengt hening of the provision of the ex- ecutive order governing political actv- ity in the unclassifed service, and the yesting of the power to investigate cases arising under this order in the civil serv ice commission or some other body in- dependent of departmental dictation. It is our conviction that public opinion will support and uphold these changes.

 Ethel Barrymore has been leading lady in The Three of Us' in London and Miss Brothers visited London to person. ally superintend the staging of the play for Miss Barrymore.
 Then are great things expected yet of Miss Brothers; she is young-a woman of simple tastes, fond of golf tennis, swim ming and basketball. She is full of vie tality and fond of her hard work.
 She Is in Cullman, in the lovely cottage of her mother and sister, busy with two new plays for two celebrated actresses.
