Hi>w, What and Where to Buy is the Question
_ • ■ , ■ •
That interests us. for our money is at stake. "Where can I buy the best goods for the least money?" Certainly it must be in the house that has the best bought stock,
sells on a uniformly low percentage, and is of known reliability. "Am I sufficiently posted to make my purchases in any other character of a house?" We think not. On
examination of our stock you will find none but tried makes and brands, and our manner of doing business is a sufficient guarantee for the correctness of our prices. We
are continuously in receipt of new goods. As the season advances the values decline and that accounts in a measure for the extreme low prices throughout our store. We
are in the lead and propose holding every advantage gained. The new receipts are very attractive and correspondingly low in prices.

THE LAMPASAS CUNVEN-
TION.
The democrats of the state
acted very sensibly after all.
They kept state issues out and a
very sensible platform was
adopted.
In regard to instructions for
the presidency, the idea that has
for some time been advocated by
the Hesperian, and that was
made part of the Cooice county
instructions was adopted. The
delegates go uninstruoted.
Cleveland was warmly endorsed
and declared the choice of the
state, but it was also deolared
that there were questions as to
his svailability, and the conven-
tion refused to instrucLfor him.
Throckmorton, Ireland, Shep-
ard and McDonald were aelected
as delegates at large. Yancey
Lewis of Cooke and C. F. Gallo-
way of Fannin were chosen from
this district with D. Head of Den-
ton and Dr. J. C. Fields of Gray-
son as alternates.
Dudley Wooten of Dsllas and
Jake Hodges of Lamar were
chosen electors at large, and A.
C. Owsley of Denton for this dis-
trict The Bexar county delegates
were refused admission.
As a matter of fact neither of
the candidates for governor bad
much band in that convention,and
the democrats wisely put eff the
fight antil the time for it.
We feel ssre our delegation to
Cbieago will act with judgment
and for the best interests of the
party.
One surprising snd gratifying
thing was the heavy vote for
Throckmorton, ss shown by the
following:
Throck mortoa 613
Ireland 587
Shepard 550
McDonald 450
Cooke county's eleven votes
were cast as i as true ted, against
instructions to Chicago.
Yancey Lewis made a speeeb
that was well received and shows
that he is gaining strength as n
democratic leader.

OUR KINO.
Once npon a time a large num-
ber of frogs lived quietly aud
prosperously in a lake.
The family tiled of this living
and imagined they would be hsp
pier and better contented it thej
bad a king to rale over them.
Therefore they petitioned Jupiter
to send them a king, that be
might rnle over them. In accord-
ance with their prayer Jupiter
threw among them with a great
splaah a log. The frogs soon
learned they had nothing to fear
from this king. Whereupon they
prayed Jupiter to send them a
real, sure enongb, live king,
wherenpon Jupiter sent t'uem
from Tyler, Tex., James Stephen
Hogg, and the same Hogg with a
strong and tyranical band did
reign and rule over poor frogs,
and did destroy their quiet
and prosperity, and did refnse to
sllow the frogs any voice in their
government and the admlnistra
tion of the said Hogg over th«
frogs was so great that they crie<
aloud to be relieved from bis a<l
ministration. Bit his maj^sti
Hogg said: uIn no wise will I r»
lieve you of my adminiHiratioi
for you see I'm lik« th#* old ma
of the sra, I am so firmly tixe<
about your iihcLs by my Finle;
that ye can in no witu- n»»t n •
off."
But it came to pang in Angmt,
1892, that the frogs met in con-
vention at Houston. and
fluding that his majesty bad b«-
oome drunken in the exercise ol
too much power, did cast him out
and in his place and stead did
fleet to preside over them a safe,
wise aad eonaervative statesman
who would not lend the children's
money to the railroad and who
was more than willing to permit
the frogs to elect their own rail-
road oommiaaioners.
