J. B. CHERRY The Christmas shopper will be al- most dazzled when he first enters ‘the mammoth stores of this firm, but bewilderment gives place to joy as an inspection of their excellent stock be- gins.

Benator Vest has lost none of his old-time power of expression, “gor any of ‘his. confidence in the principles for which be has been fighting so long. He made this plain ip a short speech he deliv- ered .this week. Although he ased hig remarks upon the ~ Dingley bill, he prefaced them by gaying that he knew it was o dead Zssue and that he only did so be- gause many well-meaning peop'e were urging Congressto act upon it. Later, the death of the Ding- - Jey bill was announced by Sher- nan. Apropos of the late cam- paign, Mr. Vest said: “While 1 pay be subjected to the charge of being a lunatic, an anarchist and $ repudiator, I assert thut the ‘gnly relief for the people is to giv: them more money. If we are Fonatics end anarchists because we ask for the opening of the mints to the free coinage of silver, dhen over six million American freemen who voted for Wm. J.

For instance, Senator Morgan said: “Tf Senator Allen makes his reso- tution joint, and 1% should pases the Senate and House, there would be no doubt of the authori-' ty of corgress to probe the mat— ter to its furthest depth.
