Driftwood Precinct Caucus.
The Kepublicau electors of Driftwood
precinct are requested to hold a caucus
in the Frederick school house , Monday
evening , September 12th , 1892 , at sev
en o'clock , for the purpose of electing
three delegates to the Republican coun
ty convention to be held in Indianola ,
Wednesday , September 14th , 1892 ; and
to transact such other business as may
come before the caucus.
E. F. DuFFEr , Committeeman.
THE TRIBUNE endeavors to give all
the important local news the marriages
deaths , personals , church and society
items , but it does not and will not per
mit its columns to be used as a sewer
for the social filth of the city to flow
out into the homes of th'e people. There
is and can be no more serious social in
fluence than that of a newspaper gath
ering up and scattering abroad the filth
and drive of a city. The newspaper
man who has no regard for the welfare
of the readers of his paper ought to
quit the business. We know there is a
certain temporary demand for the'news
paper of a semi-filthy character , but
will not pander to that kind of taste.

return the same , as the only one

Has the actual difference in the
way CLOTHING is put up ever oc
curred to you ? Jf it has not , a visit to
the various places where clothing is
sold will convince you that there is a
vast difference between "slop-shop
hand-me-downs" and clothing ( not
things ) made of good material and
nicely put together. Here is where
we have always made a strong point
and the fact that we are selling Men's and Boys' Suits
and Pants , trimmed , lined and sewed equal to any tailor
made suits , at prices as low , and often lower , than the "slop
shop" stuff explains in itself why we are doing so large a
clothing business. We have put forth an extra effort this
