HARNESS, WAGONS
IMPLEMENTS

F. j. Barlow the oldest esta blish-
ed harness and implement dealer in
Whatcom County has given lease
on his building at 1913 Commercial
Street, Bellingham and will quit the
harness and implement business July
first. The new tenant will take po-
session of the building on that date.
In order to dispose of the large
stock of harness, wagons and bug
gies and in fact any implement
needed on the ranch, he has reduc-
ed all prices so low that every ar
ticle should be closed out before
the new tenant moves in.
If you are in need of wagon,
buggy, farm pump engine or any
thing in the farm machinery line,
you will do we'll to investigate this
stock at an early date. The prices
are less than you will ever have Of
fered you again and June Goth will
be the last day.
This sale does not effect the Gar
age business, his sons will devote all
their time to the Automobile trade
and any repairs needed for the farm
machinery that has been sold by
him can be gotten from The garage.

Surely that is a precious picture for an
American envoy to present. When Mon

American people in a volume Of more
than 400 pages against his treatment by
Washington. an appeal which he at:
tempted to support by publishing the

In the midst of war preparations. how

the United States had been abandoned

that the more extreme policy had been

For this breach, Webster and Clay SO
successfully arraigned him when his ap-

the enormous lead it has gained over the
divided Democrats in the gold and sill

When the treaty of peace came up for
most of the Democrats and
a few Republicans were opposed to its
provisions for holding the conquered
Philippines and Porto Rico. and to Nc
Kinley's policy of starting q colonial en-
pire. Nevertheless Mr.. Bryan appeared
in Washington and declared for the

His reasoning then takes on added in

OF 1900 While this hardly was a fair
view OF his motives. Mr.. Bryan did raise
