Our Editorial

"Everybody's Store''-Do you rea-
lie that we are trying to make
this Your Store? We are devoting
our time, our energy, our money
to this proposition. Our efforts
would be in vain. if we could not
make it Your Store.
We plan this to be the place
where you can trade in conf
dence, knowing that everything
is being done for the protection
of your interests.
The more you make it Your
Store the larger will be the vol
ume of business and that means
lower prices for you.
We want you to come here
feeling that you can get your
merchandise as cheap i if not
cheaper-than any place on earth.
We have lately increased our
capital stock with the main pur-
pose of being able to supply your
wants at still lower prices. With
this additional capital we can
purchase in larger quantities and
pay spot cash, forcing the manu-
facturer and jobber to come to
our terms. That means a saving
to you-for the cheaper we buy,
the cheaper we will sell.
Now about Mail Order Houses
most merchants are afraid to
mention them, fearing you will
compare the prices and find out
the ov~ercharges they are trying
to force from you. If the merch-
ants had been square with you
and not tried to force War
Prices" down your threats, there
would not have been these sue
cessful mail order houses. Mail
order houses declare dividends of
DO per cent to so per cent. Be-
lieve me, if a so-called merchant
of today cannot meet the prices
of mail order houses he ought to
be out Of business, for he is a
dead one.
Bring us any price list and we
will meet the price in the same
quantity and quality. We buy
as cheaply as they do and pro-
pose to sell as cheap to you.
Again, realize your advantages
in dealing with us. You get to
see and sample the goods before
you buy. You don't have to send
your money away three weeks in
advance of getting the goods.
Should anything be wrong, we
are right at your door to straight
en- it out. Since ''Everybody's
Store" came to you, there has
been no cause to send your mon
ey away, for you could come
here and always buy as cheap, if
not cheaper.
Ii you haven't been to see US
come right now, and get acquain-
ted with a real live bunch Of
people that do business your way,
and are always striving to please
you.
We want each member of every
family in Clay, Cass, Trail,
Barnes and Ransom Counties, in
fact in the Northwest, to come
and get acquainted. 1t will do
you good. twill do us good.
Let's pool our interests and
work together. You help us. We
will help you.
We are offering the best plan
Of a cooperative store imagin-
able. We take the chances on
our Judgment, and our money
and divide our profits with you.
Sounds good? Try it.
Won't you come and see us
right NOW, while you have the
time. After getting acquainted
and knowing us and our goods
you can write or telephone. Come
now. Meet us face to face and
we will gladly give you a hearty
hand shake, plenty of good hot
coffee with real cream in it, and

In an attempt to make it appear
that the farmers of this country will
be injured by free wheat imported
from Canada, the Jewell Republican
of last week tried to show that wheat
is higher in the United States than in
Canada, but if the editor of the Re
publican had looked at the Kansas
City Star of the same date as the Re
publican he would have discovered
these quotations on wheat: 'Winni.
peg, May wheat, 92 S-4; Minneapolis,
May wheat 81 IL; Winnipeg, July
wheat, "a "a; Minneapolis, July
wheat, &c. He would also have dis
covered that in February the United
States exported wheat to the amount
Of 100000 bushels, for the free
trade markets of the world, and that
since July the United States has ex.
ported 1OS, $4,000 bushels of wheat,
or six millions of bushels more than
was exported during the same period
one year ago. Also, that ON Friday
last, Winnipeg received 1S9 cars OF
wheat while Chicago received but %.
Apperntly, the Canadians are not ship
ping all their wheat to this country.
