Stylish Merchandise and Unusual Values Make Prosperity For Wise Merchants.

While our SaleSmen are concen- trating their efforts on Fall Busi- ness, our Mail Order Department is offering it's services for sweet ening" your stocks of mid-Sum- mer merchandise. You will find us ready to give you extraordi- nary values in all goods for i'm mediate delivery. You get here, on your Open Orders, the same prices and the same care in seiec- ton that you would receive when you made your purchases in per- son. You cannot afford to buy in any other market.

If possible, we urge all our Merchant Customers to visit the market in person, as they can, in many cases, make more satisfactory selection directly from the stocks than from the models carried by our salesmen on the road. If, however, you find it out of the question to leave your business for this purpose, we will have a representative call with a most complete display of all our varied lines. A brief note, or even postcard IS sufficient 10 make an engagement.

Many members of the democratic party in Nome. including the district committeeman. held a meeting last night for the purpose of forming plans for the coming election. It was final ly decided that meeting be held Sat urday night which will be advertised SO that all democrats may attend. Not much was given out about last nights proceedings. but 1t has been said that those present. or most of them, fav- ored the placing of d non partisan ticket in the field provided those of the other parties decided to agree with such arrangement. Nothing definite was done. however. except the com ing to decision to hold a real meet ing at which all democrats will re- ceive the privilege of attending.

JOHNSON AND
 FAMILY FEUD
FATHER OF RooSEVELT'S RUN MING MATE OFTEN OPPOSED
 SONS.


 Grove l.. Johnson. father of Hiram Johnson, governor of California. and candidate for vice president of the United States on the progressive tick ct, has often before been in opposition to his son and those who know him consider il to he in m way remarka- ble that he announces his support of the democrat in the coming election. and his opposition. therefore. 10 his own son.
 Elwood Bruner of Nome, practiced law with the Johnsons for many a year in the same courthouse at Sacra- mento. He speaks in the highest terms of the family as lawyers, but he relates that at times father and sons quarreled politically and otherwise and were as bitterly opposed to each other during their separation as if no blood relationship existed.
 There were two sons, the present candidate for the presidency of the United States and another. At one time the father fell out with one son and took the other to his bosom. but soon afterward a change of part ners was sure to take place and the former hostile son was taken back To the paternal bosom and the favorite was subjected to the paternal wrath The trio seemed to have been unable to agree for any considerable length of time. and the present sensational attitude of the old man Is credited tc one of the periodical bursts of hatred to which his sons have been made &C., customed. The chances are said to be that the coloners running mate will turn on his father. judging by past events. and that a most unusuai scene of . fight between members of the same family in the first rank of politics will ensue.
