A -Pretty Strong Argument
in Favor of Our
Rem
Would you consider it good business to
overlook a proposition where you ran eavt
from 10 to 50 in your purchases of FUR
NITURE, RUGS AND DRAPERIES? This
is what vie can save for you. All our stock
at our present location must le closed out
within the next few weeks, as we have bought
an entire new stock for our new store. It is
imperative that this stock must go no mat
ter what the loss may lie. There is still thou
sands of dollars worth of CARPETS, FUR
NITURE, LAOE CURTAINS AND DRAPER
IES to.be disposed f, and you will be the
, gainer by many dollars. Don't overlook this
opportunity. ' .

Following the policy adopted by the
American Federation of 1-abor. UihuIki
Central Uilxir union next Tuesday will
hold mi elect bin at Labor temple on the
various catididHtes, who will go before tiie
voters November B. The purpose Is to net
an expression and thus determine who
shall receive the endorsement of the lubor
unions. As a preliminary to this election
Central 1-abor union sent all candidates a
list of questions touching on the Initiative
and referendum, elglrt-hour law, vestibule
law, twelve-hour shifts for tint Omaha
firemen, antl-injunctinn hill pending in con
gress, and other Isrues of iwrtlcular In
terest to the rank and tile of laboring
men. ,
The candidates were requested to exptesa
themselves on the questions noted and re
turn to I-abor temple for file. These
answers are being examined by the mem
bers of Hie organized labor bodies. Next
Tuesday each member of the various
unions, who want to vote will receive a
ballot, which he will maik In a niann'T
similar to a regular election. The vol
will he canvassed by a committee Tuesday
evening and the result announced. The

dates, whose names are" placed on the
central Labor union ballot, the various
local unions agreeing to defray expenses
Incident to the election.
1-abor leaders declare that the mirnose
of holding these preliminary elections is
an educational one, the object being to
euueate labor to discriminate and support
those candidates In sympathy with organ
ized labor.
An interesting feature of an otherwise
featureless campaign is the hue and cry
being raised by the democrats on the so
called home rule proposition. Nearly every
democratic candidate has some reference
to home rule on his advertising cards,
home rule meetings are twins ,n-nrt
and a tempest Is being raised in a teapot
Dy me ueniocrats over the self-imposed
Issue of so-called home rule. The fact of
the matter Is the home rule question is
not an Issue of the prevent campaign and
the Intelligent voters know that. The
present home rule noise is but an echo
of the "liberal policy" advocated by the
democrats last spring. As a matter of
fact the republican candidates are as much
In favor of home rule as their opponents.
Chairman Donohoe and Secretary Wood
land at republican headquarters have tha
work of registration well In hand. Thev
ara Impressing on every voter the fact
that all must register and that previous
registrations are null and void.
Some of the humor of the campaign has

WILLS EXPLAINS CUT PRICES
Secretary of Coal Klrhiatr, In Con
eladlag Testimony, Definea
the Term.
The examination of Walter Wills, former
secretary of the Omaha Coal exchange,
was concluded Wednesday morning by
County Attorney Slabaugh. Little addi
tional evidence of Importance Was brought
out. In his cross-examination Mr. Wills
said by the term "cutting prices" used In
his evidence he meant a reduction of the
retail price by dealers Without letting the
exchange know of tttiflVhange
County Attorney Slaba'ngh Introduced in
evidence a letter dated' In 1893 and signed
by F. M. Hamllng. secretsry, advising
member of the exchange to buy their coal
of the Star Lumber company, aa under
agreement with the exchange this company
was going out of business and waa selling
Its stock to the members of the exchange.
The letter closes with the significant state
ment that with the closing out of this
company harmony would once more be re
stored among the coal dealers.
Mr. Wills said he knew nothing of the
letter, as it was written before he became
secretary. He said as far as he knew the
exchange of 189S and the present one were
different organizations.
Mr. Wills was the last witness called by
Judge Slabaugh. The latter has not de
cided whether he will take any more depo
sitions at present or not. He has expressed
himself as well satisfied with the nature
of the evidence he has procurred against
the alleged Coal trust.

Wedneaday morning when the snal aalo

was In waiting for Manager Glllan to open
the doors and from that on all during the
morning hours a continuous stream of
people was seeking seats. Last year the
ticket sale was opened a week In advance
of the show, but this year the box office
was not ' opened until Wednesday of the
week before the show. Demands for boxes
were unprecedented and many who were
shut out from securing boxes did the next
best' thing w hlch was to get a seat down
stairs. Because of the great demand for
seats the management has decided to
grant the promenade privelege to those oc
cupying. seats In the first three rows in the
balcony. Although the price for these
balcony seats Is less than for seats down
stairs, still these are splendid seats from
which to view the show.

On the list Is Thornton Star, the pride of

he will have charge of the arena and give
the orders to the exhibitors under orders
from the Judges.
Colonel Sapp and his big megaphone will
be missing from the Horse show this year
and Instead a more subdued score board
will be used on which the numbers of the
winners will be placed. The Auditorium
being circular with people on all sides, an
nouncements had to be made In four di
rections and these will be done away with.
Extraordinary care Is given some of the-e
show horsea. Crow A Murray and Pep

The Kansas City Times is speaking of the
attention given to one of the horses after
it left the arena said:
A number of hostlers stood watching
one of Crowe Murray's horses at Its
toilet. The groom took one bottle and
bathed the animal's feet. Another was
used In sleeking part of Its coat. The
mane and tall were carefully brutihed.
Chan white bandages were wrapped about
Its legs. Its "bath rolW' was then thrown
over it, and it was put In a bed of straw.

Malta-Vita is so good to eat
. because it is made from the
finest whole white wheat, thoroughly cooked
and matured, then mixed with pure, rich
barley malt extract and rolled into little wafer flakes
and baked crisp and brown. It is the most healthful
food in the world for the same reason. The malt extract turns
the starch of the wheat into maltose, or malt sugar. Maltose is

so strengthening. Malta-Vita is rich Jn maltose. Get some
