We are Doing the Business in the Line ! ?F you want to trade where your friends do just c*~ae to us and get your New Suit.

Well, we couldn't beat the other fellows on prices if we sold the way they do.

We have no bad debts. We have no losses. That's the reason the other fellow can't meet our prices. We have told you before that we would save you morey on your Clothing, Hats and Furnishings, And we tell you so again-meaning every word of [it, too, mind you- every word.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec 10, ISM. j There was a disposition on the part j of a certain portion of the presa to con nect tho visit of Hon. Frank Campbell, i national chairman from New York, Eliot Danforth, a close friend of For mer Senator Hill, and Norman E. Mack, a prominent editor and leading Demo crat of Western Now York, to Wash ing as having been made with a view to influencing the alleged recalcitrant Democrats in Congress from that State, who it is stated by the Republi can press, lind determined to support tho Republican currency bill. Mr. Campbell, however, disclaimed any such intention and declared that the visit, was simply with a view to confer ring with National Chairman .Iones re lative to tho campaign of next year. Mr. Campbell assured the reporter that New York would certainly be fourni in line for lilyan next year, ami that in his talk with Senator Jones the Senator expressed himself as certain of Democratic success, saying that the outlook for the silver leader was ex ceedingly encouraging. Thoso undeviating advocates of the gold standard as tho Uuancial anchor of every country, who declare that without tho gold basis there can be no substantial prosperity, will do well to turn their attention to a recent report cn tho prosperity of Mexico, which I\ Merrill Griffith, U. S. Consul at Mata moros, hus made to tho State Depart ment, lu view of tho well known fact that Mexico more nearly, perhaps, approaches a silver standard than any country of importance in tho world, it will be well for the goldbugsto ponder over what their own consul gives totho world through tho medium of tho State Department. Ho writes: "As noue of the Latin American countries aro experiencing such steady commercial and industrial progress as Mexico, no other oilers so many open ings to tho miner, planter, capitalist, and manufacturer. Among the many causes of this progress and activity may be mentioned tho natural resourc es of the country, tho absolute security of lifo and property, the cheapness of labor, the absence of strikes and other labor disturbances, and the con fidence in the strength and stability of the Government, which was so openly exemplified by the recent ready nego tiation of the 6 per cent, loan in the United States and Europe. Had Mr. Roberts throwu a bomb into the Ropublicau camp on Capitol Hill he would not have caused more surprise and consternation than he did by his point blank refusal to participate iu the Republican plot to deprive him of his seat by going before the committee of nine and aid the members in their investigation, lt had evidently been all planned that after a perfunctory and cursory treatment of tuc case, the Republicans would report adversely to Roberta and then by cracking the party whip the alleged Mormon member could bo expelled forthwith, butan un expected obstacle was struck. Mr. Roberts would not testify. So the scene was shifted. Apparently it was necessary for tho committee to go to Utah and investigate, but to go thither meant, no. doubt, too much investiga tion, for would it not be necessary to investigate Mr. Roberta's assertion that Federal appointees of President Mc Kinley are polygamists and were known to be hy the President when ho made tho appointments? Evidently the I committee has no desire to encounter such a condition as is said to exist in ? the State, and so a halt hus been called pending the concoction of another scheme by which the evident intention of the majority to yield to popular clamor and expel Mr. Roberts, can be carried through without too flagrant a violation of law and decency. Perhaps tho most notable utterances ot* John Wanamaker in his testimony before the Industrial Commission a day or two ago was tho statement that he believed that the trust, question should be regulated, although he seemed to doubt that any regulation would bc permanent. Naturally enough tho great merchant favored the depart nient store, although by so doing bc clearly expressed his sympathy with certain kinds of trusts. Hut he believed that the department stores h I benefited both the public and tl. voprietors, and so could bo depended "upon to re main ns permanent factors in the world of business. A bili of great interest to publishers of small, papers was introduced in tho House, Monday, by Mr. Bellamy, of North Carolina. It proposes that wood pulp, used in the manufacture of paper, shall be admitted free of duty; and re duces import duties on manufactured paper one-half. The object of this is to enable the consumers of paper, es pecially printing paper, to escape the exactions or the International Paper Trust, which lins advanced printing ?tapers to such a figure that many pub ishers must either incienso th? sub scription price or suspend publication. A further advance of 85 per cent, is 6reposed by tho trust. Mr. Bellamy's ill was introduced at the instance, of County publishers in his district, lt is manifestly in the interest of ali pub lishers, and should command united support from papers, small and large. Last winter a committee, represent ing nearly all of the metropolitan dai lies in the United States, called upon President McKinley and urged that an agreement putting wood pulp on the freo list be made with tho so-called High Joint. Canadian Commission, then trying to make a treaty of commerce with the United States. This treaty fell through, and consequently nothing waa done for the paper industries. The paper Trust has gone forward add ing burdens to the consumer: and Congress is asked now to afford relief. Mr. Bellamy's bill, or something in that direction, should interest all pub lishers. There should bo no party di vision in such a question, as the inter ests of all are identical. Deafness Cannot be Cured br local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of tho ear.

Isn't it time that something be done to get rid of the wretched and corrupt system?- Winnsbora New* and Herald. I Worse l imn Hud. iUlitor I ntclli'h neer: A horrible a (Vail*, that Cornwell-Howard murder. Such a butchery, claimed to bo perpetrated in the natue ol'right und justice, should cause every peace-loving citizen to open their eyes and begin locust about ami seo it' there is not cause for such acts of violence, and also to ti ti cl a re- i medy if tiler?1 is any. Hight on tin- gti let us not be under stood as opposed to anything right and inst and good, or to tho enforcement of good laws and institutions; on the con trary we believe in civil government in the sphere in which (he Cod of the I'ni verse placed it. vi/.: for the protec tion of the human family and their "certain inalienable rights." Yes, we believe in this kimi ol' government with our whole soul, mimi ami strength, mid in behalf ol'this Kimi of govern ment we dedicate these few lines. Why should men's lives be imperiled when executing right and good laws / Why should Mr. Cornwell and Mr. Howard be killed, and (hereby making more poor widows and semi-orphan children? What is all (his terrible oc currence for? In the name of what and whose right is it done.' Was Mr. Cornwell employed to help annihilate the liquor traille? If so, by what meth od ol' reasoning do we come lo this conclusion.' Thc institution that hired this constable is one thal trailles in all sorts ol' strong drinks, and in behalf ?d' the maintaiuance of this liquor institu tion this man was employed, lt is evi dent that it's not thc destruction of thc liquor tra thc that the dispensary was instituted, but the reverse. Th?' very name "dispensary" giv?-s the li?- to prohibition, or rather to those who claim that this institution is in behalf of prohibition. Dispense! Prohibit! LOOK at the two words, will you? Tiler?' are over OIK* million citizens that make up the Stat?* ol' South Caro lina, anti each citizen is part owner of a place where liquor is bought and sold at will and no one challenges tho right of it, but you let one of tho citizens make and sell the same kind of drinks to tho very same ones to whom tho dis Iiensaries sell, and in many instances io is killed for il. If the institution is set for tho defeiie?* of prohibition, ?ir tho abolition of tin* whiskey traill}*, why does it sell the stuff to men who'll they want.it, and when the demand is so great that one dispensary can't lill the orders more dispensaries are open ed. Yes, ami why ?io the dispensaries advertise liquor for sal?' if she really de sires the peaceful ?uni of prohibition, which she claims sim ?loes when men are sent, out to hunt other men who are doing the very same thing she her self is ?hiing, and if they resist arc shot down like dogs. Headers, it is naturally wrong to sell any of these strong drinks by a single man, and the sale of it by a company of incu, though t hat company comprise more ihan a million men, even to tho organization of ti State, does not make it any less wrong. Thc sale of it is wrong because the money ?'xpen?le?l for the unsatisfying drinks is needed in thousands of homes to supply food and clot liing ami educa tion,and many other things that it takes to make a happy home, and all these things every human being has a right, to and ought to be defended, but in many instances tiro deprived of them by tue so-cnllcd liquor traille of which South Carolina is "big 1" in this glo rious country of ours. The only logical conclusion that can bo arrived at by any kimi of reasoning is thatthe efforts of the State to put down the trafile by individuals is in order that the sales in her bar may bc more sind her coffer.*} more enlarged. As long as money is the object of thc institution, ir may bo expected that difficulties will arise between it and men of like disposition. If our glorious South Carolina wishes to abolish tho salo of liquor let her lirst, get down and repent in Backcloth and ashes ami get her own garments clean, and then she cnn see. more, clearly how to deal with those who persist in its unlawful Stil?'. Let us make liquor selling an outlaw, from the simple fact that it is unlawful whether hy a single individual ?ir by a whole Stat?'. Lei us be consistent. A CITI/.KN. Woman's .Missionary Union.
