One of these tht?e gentlemen is sure to occupy the presidental chair next
term. Oliver Dovey Fays Taft will be the man. The chances are he don't know
anything about it, but thts point is this, that if either of them should come into
our store to make a purchase, they would pay the same price as anybody else.
We do pride ourbelves of the fact that we make no difference in people. One is
treated with the same courtesy and pay the same price as another.

Will Rebuild Fremont College.
A special from Fremont says: "The
college" will be rebuilt, and will be ready
for occupancy within two months. Al
ready the work of reconstruction has
been commenced.
While the fire was still in progress
late yesterday afternoon the Fremont
school board and the faculty of Fre
mont college held a meeting. The board
tendered the college the use of the big
public school building, and the offer was
accepted. The school is only two blocks
from the college.
President Clemmons estimated the
loss at $50,000. He has insurance of
$18,000.
The walls of the college are still
standing. The fire damage below the
third floor was comparatively small,
but the building was gutted above it,
and the roof was burned off. After it
had got started, the Fremont fire de
partment make a good fight. The high
water pressure supplied by the munici
pal plant was too much for the hose,
and three lines were broken at the most
critical time. Public indignation is
pretty high just at present over the al
leged defective condition of much of the
apparatus of the volunteer fire depart
ment. Had the department suffered no
accidents, it is believed unquestionably
the fire could have been confined to the
attic.
An organization known as a workfest
was organized to assist President Clem
mons in his present crisis. The most
serious phase of the situation is the
shortage of labor, while a demand for
immediate work to get the building in
condition for a resumption of school in
it, confronts Dr. Clemmons and the cit
izens. The proposed workfest was got
under way this morning, and by this af
ternoon the first installment of men
were on the scene. There were thirty
five business men, and others, who be
gan cleaning out the debris, and
straightening up the rooms of the struc
ture that can be used for class purposes.
Among others who donned their over
alls were Ross Hammond, George F.
Wolz, E. R. Gurney, Frank Hammond,
H. F. Alderman, President Clemmons.

ployed at the Sure Hatch incubator

The Next Winner a Sweedish Craft
Stockholm, Oct. 15. William Olson
and Goesta Kyhlberger who are at the
head of the movement here to build a
challenger for the American cup say
that a large portion of the money re
quired to construct and sail a 90 footer,
estimated about 1 189, 000, has all ready
been subscribed. Many large manu
facturies have offered to furnish ma
terial gratis and the captain and the
three mates will sail her without any
pay; the designer will accept no com
pensation for his work, and the build
ers only charge the net cost of con
struction. Messers Olson and Kyhl
berger think they will now be able to
guarentee funds even for a 95 footer if
required. The report that the Sweed
ish Club intends challenging with either
a 70 or a 95 footer is in order to compel
the New York Yatch club to build a
new boat has no foundation. The
Sweedish Yatch men are prepared to
challenge with a 90 footer and all re
ports to the contrary are sharply de
nied in the Sweedish papers. A meet
ing of the Royal Sweedish Yatch club
has been set for October 21 when an
importaut announcement i"a expected.
