The Peake Is happy i'm extend

LIN Fremont County, under the
Lines adjusted by county division
it has been doubtful as what the
new alignment would show as a
test of party strength; and while
the tickets of the two old parties
were scratched as never before,
yet when the totals were reached
the maiorities fell for the Grand
Old Party.
Not a single county candidate
endorsed by the Peake has failed
the place they were nominated to

OATS, with brief comment appear
ing Herewith.
To those who were not chosen
by their constituency, we say i'm
all kindness, that In popular cleo
tons, some must win and some
must lose. AS long aus men as
pire to office, and contest for
place before the people under
party name, there will always be
defeat for some persons. 1t Is
however q matter for self con-
graduation, that he who received
the least vote, was yet paid
high compliment by the great
number OF votes he did receive,
and he should rejoice and be ex-
ceedingly glad that SO many of
his fellows thought him worthy
for such loyal support.
How much better 1T la to live
in land where we can fight all
our battles on the highway of in
tellect, bloodless and glorious.

Be ''StyIe Careful"
Says Julius OTkin
In Buying a Fall Suit at This
Time Of the Year, Style Is
Just AS Important
AS Price.

Never in my experience in the suit
and cloak business was II harder to
buy right than for this Falls trade.
During the month | spent in the
East in the style centers, radical
changes were twice wrought in the
style for milAdys fall suits.
I spent three weeks watching and
waiting for the styles to settle. ="
and when bought secured the au-
thentic styles-the same as will be
shown as correct in the largest East
ern stores.
Unfortunately. many buyers in the
early market loaded up with fall gar
ments, which have already been with
drawn from manufacture, in favor
Of the present styles.
The short coat OF the ladies' fall
suits, which were manufactured early
in the season, have been replaced by
the 45-inch length. and on Saturday
I offer two special values in these
correct styles that will appeal TO all
women who want to buy now, and at
the same time feel sure that they
have bought the right models.
For 9175O I will sell Saturday
ladies' suits that are actually worth
:
will find beautiful suits that should
bring $4,000 to $3.50. An inBpeo-
ton will convince you that the val
ues can't be duplicated In Omaha
sale or no sale.
And more free waists SATURDAY.!
The ladies certainly read my ads, be-
cause the way they're taking aoyan-
tage of this offer the past two days
has convinced me beyond a doubt.
Come along. then, Saturday; buy
any waist you see, and I'll present
you with one FREE of exactly the
same quality and price as the one
you buy. You select the one you
buy, and you select the one give
| you.
It's simply 2 novel idea OF mine 70
