We sell the choicest of Dress
times, but we never sell inferior Dress Goods. With us it,would
be poor policy. The "shoddy" would be discovered in a short
lime and the injury to oor reputation would mean far more to us
than the small money loss would mean, to you. Hence, every
dollar of cost represents just so much extra quality and beauty.
You can safely judge all our Dress Goods by the two special
items offered for Monday.

beaten, the announcer could proceed no
further. Finally It became quiet enough
for him to say that the time was lowered
from 1:084. the former record, to 1:08 flat.
A beautiful floral saddle was then thrown
over the horse's back, and he was lead
off to his stables In cere of his trainer.
The grandstand looked as If a cyclone
had struck It, for all the spectators flocked
to the training quarters to congratulate
Mr. Ketcham and look at Cresceus. He
was quickly blanketed and led up and
down along the track, being fed at In
tervals. No human being could be cared
for In a better manner.
Mr. Ketcham was so highly elated that
he could scarcely talk. People thronged
about him, and fairly carried him on their
shoulders.
There was a slight difference In the time
of the race, several of the watches show
ing the time at 2:07, while others regis
tered 2:Ci4, but In a consultation, the
Judges compromised on the time and imde
It 8 : flat. Mr. Ketcham bellovei this
was on account of the high wind, wh.'ch
no doubt was a great hindrance to the
horse. But he Is well satisfied end hopes
to lower the new record established here,
at Leavenworth, Kan., where he will take
Cresceus on Monday. He sas: I
"There Is not the least possible doubt 1
but thst the lime can be brought down
to 2:074 and I mean to do It, although I i
believe t cannot find a faster track."
. Then he hesitated, as If the thought nt ,
trotting him here again had occurred to i
him.
"That horse has made mo 1228.000," said
Mr. Ketcham, In a lpquaclpus mood, shortly
after iho race, "and I have been offered
hd refused HSO.OOO for him."
The crowd which witnessed ths races
v Is estimated at B.00O, and the officer of
the brlvtiig club aro so much pleased that
they announced 'from . the .Judges' stand
that another mntlnee would ha held Sat

BAULT STE. MARIE, Mich., Sept. 19.
The shut-down of the Consolidated Lake
Superior company, throwing 3,600 men out
of employment, has caused a panlo In the
Canadian Boo, which Is In a worse con
dition than ever hi Its history.
Many pepole are preparing, to leave that

way to get through the winter In the best
possible manner with the least expense,
The action of the police department in
swearing In a large number of deputies.
Including all the conductors and motormen
of the etreet railway lines, has served to
Btlr lP tha anxiety of the people,
A special train left last night up the
Algoma Central railroad to bring In the
1.600 or more men employed In the woods
'nd mines. They are expected tonight or
tomorrow and not a man of them will have
a penny with which to buy food or lodg
ing. The company will pay the .men In
checks, which will be good for fiothlng
until money has been raised and deposited.
The feeling of the pepole that with so
large a number of men turned loose In the
city, hungry and with no money,, the sit
uation will be dangerous. '
A guard has been placed around the
office of the paymaster of the company,
and the pepole are making desperate- ef
forts to arrange means for' feeding and
housing the men until they can be taken
out of town. The company has fitted up
the car barns In such a manner that the

REFERS TO STATEMENT OF OPPONENT
Says that the Teople Themselves Mast
Deride Whether rreaent Condi
tions Are to Contlaae or
te Be Changed.
CHILLICOTHE. O.. Sept. 19.-The repub
lican campaign In Ohio was opened today
with a large parade followed by a large
meeting In Tocatenge park at which Gov
ernor Nash presided.
Speeches were made by Senators Foraket
and Hanna, Myron T. Herrlck, candidate
for governor, Warren O. Harding, candi
date for lieutenant governor, andaxhers.
Senator Hanna devoted the Introductory
part of his speech to state affairs. Touch
ing upon national questions, he said:
Mr. Clarke, whether he did It thought
lessly or Intentionally, In a public utterance
at Akron, I believe It was, made this state
ment: 'This country Is on the verse of a finan
cial and Industrial collapse." He sounded
mat note or danger. Why, uod only Knows.
To my mind It was a criminal act, because
it is untrue. So far as the financial and
Industrial Interesta of this country are con
cerned they never have been In better shnpe
man today, mere is nothing to inieriere
with the onward proirrees of this develop
ment, except one thing, and that one thing
Is to shake the confidence of the people In
the principles and policies exercised by the
party in power.
Either Mr. Clarke knows absolutely noth
ing about business affairs or else that sin
gle utterance, standing alone as affecting
the result of this campaign, should con
demn him and the party he represents to
oblivion forever. It Is worse than criminal.
People Fear Political Heresies."
If It were thought that the heresies of
Tom Johnson and his socialistic followers
could make any Impression on the people
of Ohio so as to change tha political con
dition here, the men who control these
great Industries and the man who are as
sociated with them as partners, togelher
with the men who work with their hnnds In
this great business development, would be
the first ones to take notice of that change,
and they would act upon the hypothesis
that it Is better to wait and know the truth
than to surmise it and sneculate upon It.
The whole country hes Its eyes upon Ohio,
knowing that this is the skirmish battle for
104. and I Join with Senator Foraker in
making the appeal to our people under
tnese circumstances to sena a wora or
greeting and confidence" to the president In
Washington and let him know that Ohio
never f niters In the right, and will- not this
time, and that we will lead In the cam
paign of 1904.
Prosperity Is Tiot Abnormal..
These conditions, my fellow cltlsens. In
this country are normal, that Is to say,
they are not abnormal. There Is no reaton
that we should not have long continued
periods of prosperity in this country, be
cause our natural resources are beyond
those of any nation in the world.
When I hear the men who are pretending
to lead the democracy or Ohio today talK
about captuiing the labor vote well, I
smile.
That element which leads and dominates
the democratic party today stiinds not for
tariff for revenue, but for absolute free
trade. Absolute free trade through the
schedules of our tariff would shut up 75
per cent of the industrial Institutions of the
United States until we could get labor down
to the price where we could compete with
Europe.
You stand here today lust exactly where
you stood years ago In this state when
under the leadership of the gallant man
who believed In protective policy and In
safe money, you followed him to the polls
and year after year registered your verdict
that that was the policy of the working
classes of this state and country.

on a recognized basis, we do not Intend to
have our shops ruled by a Steward, walk

CHICAGO, Sept. 19. The action of the
employers will come as a surprise to the
men, who will know nothing of the con
templated shutdown "until they report for

Cnarared with Stealing? Valises.
Waiter Crayoroft, colored, 'was fcrreeted
last night and is held at the station on
the charge of being a suspicious character.
It is alleged that he and a partner took
two valises belonging to women who came
to this city on a train from St Paul on
which Crayoroft acts as porter. According
to me story toia ine ponce, craycron
accompanied the two women from the
train to the, Windsor hotel. After the
women had retired he, with a companion.
went to the hotel and asked for their
arlDS. which were turned over, they claim
ing that they were friends of the owners
of the proDerty. The next day the women
wrote from Kansas City, where they had
gone, that their grips had been stolen In
Omaha. Craycroft admitted at the sta
tion that he was one of the parties who
called for the grips, but states that they
were both turned over to the man who
was with him. and he does not know
what has become of them. He says the
man who took them lives In Chicago. A
friend of the prisoner called at the sta
tion last eight and said that Craycroft

borne a good reputation there. The two
valises are valued at ?J6. Neither of them

Brights Disease
Not Rare, but Comnion-Kidney Dis
ease Developes Into Bright' Disease
?heotb to 10th Month; Therj incur
able by All Known Means Except the
new Fulton Compounds, which Rec
ord 87 Per Cent of Recoveries.
We have before us a little work on kid
ney diseases by Joseph F. Edwards, M. D.,
Philadelphia, that contains some things
thst everyone ought to know. Many people
Imagine Brtght's Disease Is rare, when. In
fact It covers nearly the whole gamut of
kidney diseases. This book sets out that
the kidneys have but one' function, vis.,
the elimination of the urea and waste pro
ducts, and thai all interferences with that
function are called Bright s Dlaeuae. Dr.
Edwards adds: "For the benefit of phy
sicians who may read this book I will give
a list of the cases which i attribute to
Brlght's Disease, vis.:
Albumenurla.
Congestion of the Kidney.
Degeneration of the Kidney.
Fatty Degeneration of the Kidney.
Inflammation of the Kidney.
I'raemia.
Disease of the Kidney.
Thus nearly ail kidney disease leing
Brlght's Disease, the serious question is
is il in the primary or secondary stage?
After the eighth to tenth month it becomes
chronic and is then Incurable by all known
means except the Fulton Compounds.
There is often no notice of the trouble till
It has fastened.- If you have kidney dis
ease In the first stage the Renal Com
pound will cure It quickly, if it Is of more
than 3 to 10 months standing it is ths oniv
thing known that will cure it. In proof
that nothing elae will we cite all medical
works In evidence. The stockholders of the
John J. Fulton Co., business and profes
sional men of San Francisco, are the first
In the world to announce the cure, pre
senting a definite percentage of recoveries

the cured all among purely chronic, well
defined cases, it you have any kln-1 t.f
