Owing to the recent strong advance in cotton goods retailers must soon advance their prices on all lines. In anticipation of such
advances we bought very heavy. You will now get the benefit of our good buying.
Buying and selling for cash enables us to give bargains that no merchant doing credit business can give.
We quote prices and stand back of every price. Weulaceno limit as to quantity you can take of any advertised goods. One
person's dollar is no better than the other.

AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
"When tho cat s away, tho ntlco will
play." Hon. Thomas Uraokott Heed
bad not been away from Washington
i wonty-foitr hours bofoto an active agi
tatiou was begun by members ot his
party In an effort to provont Ins beiug
ro-olectod speaker of tho house. This
has become, mi old story in Washing,
ton, although thoro appears to bo mom
Ufo in tho present movement than in
any one of its previous predecessors
It is most positively satod by tho agi
tators that tho administration wishes
Mr. Beod defeated, became of tkewaB
aw ! wklc be treated the Umuta-
tralion measures in tho last congress,
somo of which were entirely hung up
and nono of which went through as
originally Intended, and that If there
is any show of defeating him, it will
openly throw its intluouco against him.
That is a very big "if." Thoro nro lots
of men in his party who would do tho
very same thing, except for that if, but
who do not caro to antagonlzo him,
unless stiro thoy could beat him. Thoro
aro reasons which causo veteran ob
servers on congressional matters to
think that if Mr. Heed wishes tho
leadership again, nothing can provont
his Kottlnc it tho report that ho will
not tako it Is again revived. Chief
among theso reasons is that all tbo
chairmen of important committees in
the last house, among whom aro tho
shrewdest and most inlluontial men in
public life, will .support Mr. Heed's
candidacy, because, by his election,
they will bo sum to got tho &amo places
in tho next house. No man in public
has a stronger personality than Mr.
Kucdj that is admitted by his friends
and enemies alike, llo lost popularity
dining tho 1-ist congrvts by getting on
tho unpopular side of every important
mens lire that camo before tho body,
and probably destroyed whatever
chance hu may havo had to become
a presidential candidate, but u much
stronger combination than there is now
.my signs of will havo to bo tunned bo
lore his domination of his parly in tho
house can bo broken.
There are wldo differences of opinion
among members of his own parly, con
cerning statements uiado by represent
ative Cannon of Illinois, about tho de
ft nt of legislation authorizing tho con
struction of the Nicaragua canal. Mr.
Can ntu thinks tho house deserves
credit for kuocning out that legislation
and providing tor spending it million
dollars on another engiueor commis
sion, before tho last commission had
even completed Its full report in favor
of tho Nicaragua route. Others do not
aud among those others is said to bo
tho president. Here is another point
upon which others do not ngreo with
Mr. Cannon: "Tho United States can
not afford to outer upon this great
work, until it lias acquired by a treaty
a xono of loriitory whereon to con
struct tho same." Lawyers of reputa
tion havo staled on tho floor of tho
senate nod tho house that no such
ticaty was ueces-ary, Tho lobbyists
who actually did provont useful canal
said of a new batch of yellow yarns
about tho "terrible" condition of Ad
miral Dewey's health, "While it is not
likely that a' man of Dowey's age al
most G2 and pbysiquo could remain
in tropical waters so long as bo has
boon there without showing signs of
tho effects of tbo climate, not to men
tion the nervous strain ho has been
under since tho first day of May, I have
no fear of his roaiainiug in Manila Bay
until ho breaks down. He is thero
now simply because ho wishes to be, as
for months ho hns had ofllcial permis
sion to start for homo at any timo ho
wished to do so. Ho is too lovel head
ed to strain his strength too far. You
can sot it down as certain tnat his
physical condition is not ns bad as tho
yellows havo painted it."
(ion. Fit, Leo's withdrawal of his
name as a candidate for tho senate
was no stirpriso to tho Virginia polo
ticlaus who frequent Washington.
They say it has been evident for somo
timo Unit General Leo would cut no
ligure in tho senatorial campaign, and
that Senator Martin would be his own
successor.
