This season we have taken unusual
pains to secure only merchandise which is
correct in style, and of such high quality
that satisfactory wear is assured. Come
to look or come to buy-you'n be welcome
in either case And we'll try to make the
occasion one that you will remember with
pleasure. The very newest styles and best
qualities will be shown. We believe that
success is measured more by the service
rendered, by the satisfaction gained, than
by the profit retained.

TROUBLE FAR OFF.

A somewhat long look ahead for
trouble Is INDUCED in by man who
writes to a Chicago paper in the vein
that when all the coal mines are ex-
hausted the great steamships and war
vessels Of the world will be so many
dead direlicts, railroad locomotives
will have to stop running, factories
will close down and the Industrial
population will be turned out to
starve and freeze. Recognizing that
this may not come for a thousand
years he still regards 1t as inevitable.
Then he disclaims being a pessimist
but asserts that he is of a cheerful
and happy disposition. dealing. how
ever. with cold facts and letting every
man reason and Judge for himself"
This is not an uncommon forebod-
ing for the welfare Of our descend
ants in perhaps the fiftieth genera
ton. But in considering that dread
fate will not men who reason and
Judge for themselves consider the pos
sibilities Of utilizing new sources OF
power and, therefore. heat? Who can
estimate or limit the possibilities of
heat supplies by boring down to the
reputed eternal fires some miles
nearer the earth's center: Who is
now prepared to place boundary on
the scope of electricity for energy
and heat? That power is now derived
for commercial uses from coal. which
does not. of course, replace that fuel.
and from water power. which does.
So far as the water powers of the
world will furnish that force there
is the possibility of large substitute

to wireless telegraphy. prepared to
say that the invention of future gen.
erations cannot perfect the mechani-
cal appliances necessary to take and
store an infinite supply of electrical
energy from the winds and the waves ::
To store and use heat from the
suns rays sounds a little like Swift's
idea of extracting those rays from
cucumbers. But when we see the

A FUNCTION UNPERFORMED

In comment on the task of cutting
down national expenses the Philadel-
phia Record offers what it intends as
sarcasm at the expense Of the Re-
publican party, but possesses the ca
pability Of hitting Democratic heads.
It Is to the effect that 1t would be
"cruel to impose on the Republican
leaders in congress the reluctant task
of reducing the extravagant expendi-
lures Of the government by 100000
900. This work legitimately belongs
to the Democratic party"
It may belong to that party. But
it still remains question whether
that party would perform the work.
The last example on that point is not
encouraging. When the Democratic
party was last put in power by a re-
volt Of the people from the billion
dollar congress it was expected to
undertake that job. But the total ap-
preparations of the first congress un-
der the Cleveland administration were
$39.oo0.O0o greater than those of the
last congress under Harrison.
Which conveys the lesson that law
ishness in government expenditure is
not confined to any particular party,
but belongs to the practical politicians
to be found in both.

Affiliations. believe in him. don't
mean to say that the Republican party
will gain votes by reason of Taft's
popularity. from the ranks of the men
whose political opinions have been
inherited from their fathers and who
live by tradition.
"These men. most Of whom live in
the rural communities, will be Demo-
Gratis as long as they live. But the
business men of the cities. men who

are beginning to waver in their al
legiance to the Democratic party.
These men are only waiting the OPP
portunity to flop over to the Republic
cans. and, in my opinion, the time is
not far distant when the state of Ten
nessee will be carried by the Repub-
licans. There is already strong Re-
publican element in Tennessee, and
If the Republicans in that state will
get together and work for a common
cause they will, believe. carry the
state in the next national election.
II have found Republican sentiment
more marked in the large cities than
in the smaller towns. This. of course,
is natural. Men in the cities take a
deeper interest in business affairs
than the residents of rural communi-
ties and small towns. But 1t is fact
that in most of the large cities of the
south. as far down as New Orleans,
the voters are beginning to look more
leniently on the Republican party
than ever before"

officers were guilty of violation Of
law and had been detected by other
public officers. But since the investi-
cation began these charges have been
toned down into the expression OF
opinion that certain public officers
are unfit" There is no charge be-
fore the committee. as we understand
it. that any one has been guilty Of
graft. or footing. or violation of law.
Secretary Ballinger's offense now con-
sists in being persona non grata to
CLAWS. Pinchot, and a few others.
Is a committee of congress quail
fled to investigate and determine a
question of opinion as to public
officers fitness? President Taft
thought Secretary Ballinger was fit.
and apparently he still thinks so. for
he has declared that ths charges
against Mr.. Ballinger we're mere
shreds of suspicion" and he retains
him in the cabinet. If the congress
committee should accept the Claws
Pinchot view and find Mr.. Ballinger
unfit" and Mr.. Taft should fail to
agree with the committee, what would
happen? It is a question Of opinion,
after all.
The president is not bound to con-
suit congress as to his department
heads. If they are confirmed by the
senate, they may take Office in spite
Of the unanimous opinion Of the house
that they are unfit" and after TAX
ing Office they may prove unfit" in
the opinion of both houses Of con-
gress, and yet remain in Office at the
presidents pleasure. There have been
many cabinet officers who. in the
opinion of congress. we're unfit" but
so long as they we're not charged with
high crimes or misdemeanors, con-
gress could not bulge them.
The charge that Mr.. Ballinger de-
ceived the president. and the counter
charge that Mr.. Pinchot attempted to
deceive him. may be safely left to
the president. He can take care of
himself, without the aid of a COM
mittee of congress. Or, if he cannot,
no committee of congress can save
him.
1t was we'll, perhaps, that the COM
mittee should have given wide latitude
to accusing witnesses, in order that
the truth should not be stifed. But
the investigation" is drifting into a
squabble of opinions. Third-hand
