Attorney General Lccso furnished the nu-
dltor an opinion yesterday on the question of
the right ot tlio Nebraska Grain Dealers' as-
Roulation to transact Insurance business in
the stute. In thu rovlow of the case und the
work done by the grain dealer ; } the attorney
general Is of the opinion , mid so" expresses It ,
thnt the association was entirely opposed to
transacting business contrary to law nnd' be
lieved they were nctlngstrictly In accordance
therewith. Tlio trouble scorns to exist hi the
fact that since the organization of the asso
ciation the Insurance p.irt has been added ,
and their constitution and by-laws as grain
dealers are unsultcd to the Insurance clause
of Incorported mutual companies. THO nt-
torney general does not llnd any grounds for
the statement that they arc doing business
under their present constitution. On the
contrary , they nro doing business In conform
ity with the act governing mutual insurance
nnd which their constitution docs not cover.
The attorney general , therefore , sny.s that as
the association Is drnftiiign now cohstltutlon
that will cover the law , ho does not bellovo
that , pending this change , the ends of Justice
demand legal proceedings to oust the asso
ciation.

The unseasonable warm weather has left a few more Overcoats on our hands than we desire
to carry over into the new year * and in order to sell them right now , we have cut the prices all to
pieces. Commencing to-morrow we , will offer our very finest Overcoats at prices heretofore asked
for medium qualities. The biggest cut we will make on our fur and plush trimmed goods. There
are not many of them , but we have a few very fine garments trimmed with good fur and silk plush.
We want to make a sweep with these goods and close them out before we take stock. We invite
those who have so far managed to get along with their old or light weight Overcoats , and whom
the open winter has kept back from buying a heavy one , to inspect these garments. They will be
surprised to see hpw little money it takes now to procure such an elegant Overcoat. This is really
a grand opportunity and the last chance this season.
In Men's Dress and Business Suits we have a beautiful stock the largest in the city and our
prices are known to be by far the cheapest. Many fine suits have been marked away down in order
to reduce stock and we will save you tully 25 per cent if not more on every suit ,
*
The big trade we. have had in Boys' Overcoats last week has broken up the sizes of several
lots , but we still have a fair assortment. The prices are such that we expect them to be cleaned
out soon.

Our Hat Department is known to offer better hats for less money than any regular hat house
in the city. The fine Fur Derby's which we are selling for one dollar have made a name for us.
No other house sells a hat of equal quality for less than $2 or $2.50. We have received several
new styes for the holidays. Our finest hats at $2.5O , $3 and $3.25 cannot be bought at any
other house for less than $3.50. $4 and $5. We offer in thfis department a splendid line of Fur
Caps at just one-half their regular retail prices.
The beautiful and artistic display of Men's Furnishings in our large windows will give an
idea of the variety of goods we have and the x > rices we ask. We invite those who are puzzled
with the all-aborbing question , "What to pive. " to look at our window and they will see what
we can offer in the way of presents for gentlemen. Sensible and thoughtful men prefer and
enjoy substantial Christmas gifts of this nature. There is a satisfaction in giving or receiving
a present that one can be seen wearing , a gilt that combines utility and beauty , and nowhere
else can you get such goods s.o cheap. Our popular system of selling goods at the lowest
.prices will be continued during the holiday season. We have no fancy prices and those who
purchase of us can save enough on each purchase to buy a nice presen t for themselves.
Beginning Monday we will present visitors at our store with a beautiful holiday souvenir ,
copies of which are displayed in our windows.
All goods marked in ! plain figures and at strictly one price.
